don’t take this the wrong way, but you don’t quite look well. // oh, i’m going to enjoy making my first impression with you. how am i doing so far? :3
Thanks a lot for this prompt!! The scenes took a while to come out but here's a little midnight treat, for your patience!
Incidentally, the two sentences gave me vibes for the same character so, here's the first of two little scenes featuring everyone's favorite cactus!
"Don’t take this the wrong way, but you don’t quite look well."
Trahearne looked up, a bitter laugh breaking past his lips as the secondborn sat next to him.
"She died. We saw her die. And whatever people think about necromancy, death is not a revolving door."
"Says the nec— right... But you say this as if the southern parts of Elona were not held in firm grasp under the iron fist of a Lich, as if some risen with a slither of consciousness did not roam Orr — she told me you had lost a botanist recently... And she's not one to bend her will to the odds. If anyone could be offered a way back...", he trailed off... "So how can you be so certain?"
"Apatia."
Canach frowned, feeling the weight of regret in the firstborn's voice. A life lost to the Pact, certainly.
"Crusader Apatia was a recruit of the Pact", Trahearne confirmed. "A decisive asset in the retaking of Claw Island — and she requested a chance to work with Anwen on a field mission. The two of them did get along well and their aptitudes complimented each others so I sent them on an artefact hunt. The mission was successful but Apatia went missing in action. Anwen gathered a rescue team, but we were too late. Apatia had been tortured to death, corrupted and risen. And all Anwen could offer her was a mercy kill...", he explained, the memory too vivid, too familiar, safe for its fateful end. "I knew it had taken a toll on her, but... When we reached Elona, when we discovered what the Forged really were... Anwen was terrified of being killed and used beyond death to harm those she loved. So she asked me to ensure she never could. I designed the seal — runes from an Orrian ritual and a protokrytian protection spell — and a tattoo artist in Amnoon inked it. The design was perfect — I checked. She could never be risen. That's why I know... That's not her. Not really. An imposter. A mesmer trick at best. A midnight wraith at worst..."
A pensive silent drew, only troubled by the whimpering wind singing their broken aria in between the pillars of stone, beyond the cove.
"Say you're wrong and she really found a way back."
"Then I trust she will understand and forgive me."
"Worse then, assume you're right,and she's a spectre, conjured by our collective grief, clinging to this world until the sun rises. These might be the very last moment you have with her... What are you doing here, sulking, when you could have till dawn?"

Mun name: Mem OOC Contact: IM or Discord ( Osneaka the Sneaky #5411 )
Who the heck is my muse anyway:
A blast from the past and a culmination of everyone’s favorite plus plenty of lesser known , and modern glitches from the Pokemon games , all wrapped into one neat , almost eldritch-y package and labeled ‘MissingNo.’. Essentially the personification ( /pokefication ) of everything that’s ever gone wrong with your save file . If you want to go a bit deeper into how their existence is placed into actual lore? They are the rather aloof and comparatively freshly-aware and weak antithesis of Arceus ( hence the super serious nickname ‘Glitch Satan’ ). It’s not a ‘balance’ thing , they haven’t been poking holes in reality for a super long time in the name of natural order or anything of that sort . They’re just a glitch in the whole dealio . tldr; Arceus created the universe? MissingNo. messes their creation up and coughs inconspicuously .
Points of interest:
For the standard form they take on this blog :
- They basically embody the ‘popular image’ of androgyny . - They are very expressive with their face . Maybe too expressive , it can make them appear disingenuous . Almost like they have an outsider’s knowledge of how society expects to communicate or something . - Try not to leave electronics around them ? - Or anything really . But especially electronics . - Oh , and Pokemon eggs . Keep those away too unless you want them to turn into a booster pack of possibilities . - They are fascinated by very objective ideals ( the ideas of fate , miracles , justice , revenge , etc. ) and use them in conversation as though they aren’t weirdly heavy concepts to invoke out of nowhere . - They can create temporary Pokemon in order to pose as a trainer , but they get pretty glitchy and unstable after a short while . You probably won’t ever find them with the same team twice . - Really it’s difficult to list all the ways they can draw attention to themselves . Sometimes if they aren’t paying enough attention reality just starts to get weird around them in general . - Flawless hair tho . Plus point .
What they’ve been up to recently:
- Main verse has them wandering about , sticking their nose into other people’s mostly-mundane business , often making it slightly less mundane . They try not to do anything too dramatic anymore , because it makes a certain Space & Time duo grumpy . They blend in pretty well as a human if they don’t draw a spotlight on themselves for too long though , given that they have to do the work if they want to keep their current form alive . - Alternate verses ( Pokemon setting or otherwise ) can see them almost anywhere with any great number of reasons . At their core , they simply follow the path that seems most interesting . ‘ Interesting ’ comes in all shapes and sizes and also moral compunctions . Since killing MissingNo. essentially just counts as pressing a soft reset button , there’s hardly a limitation on where or when they might show up , and what form they might take when they do .
Where to find them:
- Often in places with lots of people and Pokemon , but sorta off to the side . They observe , sometimes mess with things a bit , and currently enjoy simply playing at being human to the extent that they are able because it leads to interesting enough encounters all on its own . - People that catch their attention will often get to suffer being drawn into a sudden ( often bizarre ) discussion as though they’d been holding a conversation already for hours . - So basically MissingNo. will often find you .
Current plans:
- Just some vague ideas for AUs. Nothing really set in stone for now \(’o’)/ I’m mostly just focused on establishing their character with enough clarity to make them engaging and fun to interact with !
Desired interactions:
- All of them. - But I’d really love to see someone essentially take them under their wing in a positive way , and help fill in the gaps of their aimlessness . Push them a little out of the ‘chaotic neutral’ territory and into the ‘chaotic good’ one maybe lol. They are aloof and don’t really emotionally invest in individual people , but that’s just because they haven’t had a reason to yet ! - And on the other end of things, I’d love to see them end up with the wrong crowd as well . They might not be easy to completely control , but they are not especially difficult to influence with the premise of entertainment . And they have the potential to be very destructive . I can see them being an appealing - albeit dangerous - tool to have at ones disposal , especially with more experience and direction .
Offered interactions:
- Ever want to explore how your character would react when things just don’t work the way they’re supposed to ? And by things I mean time , space , and the kitchen sink ? Stop on by . - Alternatively you can give them an item and they might give you 128 back . - They’re an unstably powerful , reality-altering entity taking the form of a human being because it’s ‘fun’. Have your muse challenge them to a battle , get them both drunk at a bar , have them destroy a city for your character , let them crash your muse’s wedding , teach them to knit . Really the world’s the limit .
Current open post/s:
*will smith poses @ this open tag*
Anything else?:
- Zero is agender and entirely pronoun indifferent . While I use they/them and it/its for them most of the time, I truly and honestly do not mind if you or your character refer to them otherwise . If your muse asks , Zero will have no preference or just say what first pops up in their head ( i.e. my own whim at the time ) . - If your character is the sort to be especially in-tune with what is or isn’t ‘natural’ , or you just feel like they would see through Zero’s ‘plain old human routine’ to any degree from the get-go , don’t hesitate to make it happen ! I figure they pass okay as just an odd , somewhat eccentric character to the average person who barely spends any time with them , but that doesn’t have to be the case with your muse ! - I imagine the fact that this character is basically an OC, and a rather powerful one , can be pretty off-putting . I mean , a character that ‘glitches reality’ is obviously a pretty extreme scope of strength ( as I think makes sense for what MissingNo. and other glitches do ) , but while I’d be excited to explore that on its own , writer's perogative means the primary verse for this blog is centered around Zero’s desire to find fulfillment and where they fit in the world , not like . . . puppet string your characters for the heck of it or something . I'm very ware of the lines between having a powerful character be powerful , and god-moding someone else's roleplaying experience . So don’t be scared of interacting with them . Use their reality-breaking problem for fun ! - On that note , Zero is physically scrawny and pathetic and also not very good at Pokemon battling. Feel free to kick them in the shin and call them a nerd. - Both mun and muse are giant memes and probably will not bite.
