Submissions open until January 15th!!!

Hello! Welcome to this lil tournament I'm putting together, despite also running two others right now. Why am I like this.

Anyways!!! I'm schizospec. Sadly, I don't know a lot of characters from media who are also on the schizospectrum or have psychosis. So, I figured, why not make a tournament for it?

Guidelines:

No ableism will be tolerated, nor will any other kind of bigotry.

You do NOT have to be psychotic to interact with this tournament/blog. Everyone is welcome! Honestly, I'd be really happy if lots of different people got to have a good time and learn here. Anyone can submit a character!

No anti-propaganda, bullying, harassment, etc. This is for fun.

All submissions must be sent through the ask box to be considered. This tournament will have 32 participants, tops.

NO NSFW IN THE IMAGES SENT. Light blood is allowed but please no full-on gore. A good example is YTTD or Danganronpa; there's blood, but nothing too explicit.

Headcanons are allowed! Please indicate whether the character actually fits the DSM-5 criteria or if it's your headcanon.

Characters with any condition that would cause psychosis are welcome, as well as schizospec characters without psychosis.

You can submit multiple characters in SEPERATE asks. One character per ask. Please do not spam the same character over and over.

No ocs, I'm sorry. I'm sure they're wonderful :)

In regards to images, I will accept fanart ONLY if the artist has given explicit permission, the artist's name is submitted with the art, and if official art isn't submitted in other submissions.

Rules may be added.

Now, you may be asking, what should I include in my submission? I would appreciate if your submission went something like this:

Character Name

Media Character is from

Image of character (links work fine)

What criteria do they fit and what is/would be their diagnosis (schizophrenia, bpd, ptsd, etc)

Curious about what the criteria is? Here's a link to the DSM-5 criteria for schizophrenia, which is a good place to start. I may post links to other collections, idk!!! But this is what we'll be using mostly. If it's difficult to understand or read, I can make a separate post explaining the official criteria. However, if you're schizospec or deal with psychosis and have your own experience to add to it, please feel free to say that!

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Tagging for visibility (not very long tbh)

Hello, so far do you feel satisfied with how Gege handled the 10S technique? Like, there's so much abilities in this series that's really cool in concept that's just being thrown away before we get much showcases of it but I always thought Gege at least had better things in mind with 10S.

This is not even about whether or not Megumi is coming back to showcase it. It's the fact that there's a possibility what we'll get are only half of the shikigamis left in his arsenal. Like forget Mahoraga, but we didn't even see Mourning Tiger, what it looks like or what its abilities are. It just got namedropped and got destroyed alongside Agito. Not to mention the rather underwhelming showcase of this technique in the Gojo vs Sukuna fight. I know Sukuna focused on Mahoraga's adaptation that's why he was purposely tanking hits and mostly used Maho. But what was even the point of Agito? Was it made only to serve as a distraction? If so, was it worth sacrificing Madoka Deer, a shikigami that could have helped him heal much faster? He couldn't think of another way to distract Gojo while he copies Maho's slash? Like say, summoning a huge Nue that rains lightning bolts the same way he did before while he recuperates in the shadows?

There's also the problem with how vague Gege had been with the 10S. We aren't clear with its rules cause apparently even the passing of a shikigami's abilities works differently. Can certain shikigamis only pass their abilities on a particular shikigami? Is Maho's adaptation passable then?Why doesn't Mahoraga spam its adaptation-acquired abilities? Why didn't Mahoraga go for Gojo's head the two times it bypassed his infinity? Does it retain all of its attacks/quickly forgets it after it throws it out? Does it need to be told what to do? What happens when all shikigamis are destroyed? Does the technique reset? Or does Megumi get left with only his shadow abilities?

Idk, maybe Gege is cooking something. But depending on how he proceeds with the 10S in particular I'd be sorely disappointed.

And I'm sorry if you're not interested as much in this topic. If so, pls feel free to ignore my ask. It's just, for me personally, I've always noticed a callous handling with Megumi's character (if you disagree it's fine), but this one has been particularly infuriating.

anon.

I love your ask.

Welcome to jjk confession Sunday, not on a Sunday.

Today we ave a case of "anon, you're too smart for your own good!" because these are all fair points 🤣. I don't even know what to say lol.

Honestly, I just loved all of your questions so much because you had me nodding right along with you lol. You had me feeling like I should burst out with a pen and paper and start a formal letter of complaint to send to the cat--the letter would obviously start with "monsieur, please bring Megumi back or there will be consequences". where consequences is just me screaming into the void about it on the internet.

There are really good quotes that I've recently ran into that I thought were super relevant to how much more untapped creative potential 10 shadows has as a technique, to the point that it is bound only by the imagination of the caster (starting with Gege). I'll look for the quotes another time and will share them.

Thanks for the thoughts anon!

becks the upside down or the shadow world or shadow plane, how does it feel like? Yoru said it doesn't hurt when the support boys asked her and she always says that she doesn't like it but what's the vibe?

Hi Anon! :)

(First of all, I love that you call Midoriya (the MC of the manga/anime) and Todoroki support boys 💀😭)

So, I've been sitting on this ask for about an hour and typed out half an essay, but then I deleted it and thought that maybe some songs would bring it better across? Idk if that will really answer your question... if it doesn't, just send another ask and I'll try my best to explain.

Starting with this:

the subtle stress and build up fits, like there's something lingering in the shadow world (there is: the warehouse men)

the sudden turn, when it feels like everything is too much, something is off, and it takes a sort of hopeless turn

the stress, man, I feel like Yoru's always (rightfully) on edge when she shadow travels

Next, is this one:

the whispers at the beginning *clears throat in spoilers*

I mean... she literally called herself Pandora because she feels like there's 'evil' within her quirk. So, if Yoru's edgy, I get to be edgy, too. Also, I love Rok Nardin, he (they?) make amazing music (it's awesome for DnD campaigns btw)

I hope to one day be able to write scenes which evoke the same sense of uneasiness and urgency this song does

(Anon: you've got me looking through my edgy mood playlist, so I'll be putting a few songs in here, I am sorry (not sorry at all))

Next up:

I mean... I'll just put the lyrics here:

Hear the noises, hear the sounds All the clocks go round and round All those shadows telling lies See them linger close your eyes Feel them creeping late at night Close the window, kill the light Is there someone watching me Lock the door and hide the key Lock the door and hide the key Someone try to wake me Is this a dream Will the darkness take me Or should I scream Quiet all the voices Where do they hide What's real what's fake I can't decide Someone try to wake me Is this a dream Will the darkness take me Or should I scream Quiet all the voices Where do they hide What's real what's fake I can't decide I can't decide I can't decide

Another one, because I feel like it fits so well.

The underlying stress and uneasiness

Then bam, oops shit, the warehouse men showed up and attack

Idk, I just feel like it fits so well?

Anon, fr: I'm going through my playlist and I can't decide, I'm so sorry for music spamming. You probably wanted a written explanation.

Also, this one:

It's completely on piano and the long version of an opening of an old TV show I watched as a kid (I was WAY too young to be watching that but my parents sort of didn't care lmao), but it's worth listening to (I love it, personally) — it encapsulates a lot of the shadow world (also of stuff we haven't learned yet). The lighter notes (bittersweet spoilers), the hectic and fast parts that almost feel like too much. The deep and mysterious notes that accompany the main theme. I don't know. In my mind, it fits very well.

It's worth listening to completely, in my opinion. It takes you on a journey and lets your imagination run wild. At least that's what happens to me every time I hear it.

So. This is what I head canon, it feels like. You're welcome to have a different take or a different vibe. Or, do you agree, Anon? If you have any songs or descriptions you feel fit, feel free to share. Or anyone else can hop on, too. :) 🤍

That being said, I wish it was more like this for Yoru (see song below). I want her to get angry and beat the warehouse men's asses.
