The path of hospital blood

prev

[hellportalhospital]

The day after the party, Karsten ran on coffee, coke and painkillers. He supervised the housekeeping and had a meeting at brunch with the society about the project.They pretty much agreed that Tristan and Diedrik should be considered as candidates to join in, but they should wait to see the effects of the virus before extending a formal invitation.

At lunch time he ran a superficial background check on Glass, which was difficult considering how little he knew about her. He found she had been enrolled into elementary school as Glass Stone, in Moderation where she lived with her father. Not much else after that. It was like she dropped off the earth. It was suspicious to say the least so he looked for a private investigator.

At tea time he called the Lustgarden house.

We need more Karsten and Minerva infos (and perhaps some art of Minerva because wine mom is precious)

Good excuse to redraw this lol I just love this concept of Minerva on the hospital bed right after giving birth wearing a full face of makeup and holding Diedrik like a trophy for the press

If it wasn't for the media and the paparazzi, Diedrik would have NO baby pictures. He wasn't cute until after puberty. Like, his parents are good looking but it's mostly thanks to plastic surgery and he didn't get any good qualities from them, it's a wonder he isn't a serial killer.

Minerva was spacey and just kinda forgot about his existence; sometimes left him in the car, or put him on the floor, or dropped him down the stairs. She was otherwise the more "affectionate" parent. Her love language was words of encouragement. He favorite pastime with her son is napping in strange places around the house.

Karsten's love language is gift giving, but was otherwise the more critical parent. Friends and associates refer to him as The Devil. Eh only cares about 2 things: pleasing his patron, and getting rich.

Okay now more info on Karsten!

(Don't really hate him, but I don't like him either lol. Minerva stays my favorite from the Lustgarden fam)

It's okay to hate him, he's the villain!

So yeah we have already talked about his childhood in Austria, traveling a lot, going to school in Germany and meeting Dick. Going to US and enrolling in the army, marrying Minerva. Dick went to business school and Karsten went to medical school majoring in virology.

In college is where he joined his first secret society, there he met his frienemy JC Sunderland (I stole the name from silent hill because james is my boyfriend and there's also a ton of horror references peppered in there). He was another doctor who was majoring in immunology, and they both joined the society for vastly different reasons, one wanting to create and spread new diseases and the other wanting to find a cure for everything, so they butted heads a lot.

And the thing about the medical secret society, the Osamentas, is that you have to work in pairs so you can complement each other, watch each other's backs, and so that one person can continue the project in case the other dies; so ironically Karsten and JC were paired up together.

Their project was something akin to the 1968 flu pandemic, with one spreading the virus and the other one creating a vaccine that they could sell for hideously inflated prices. The Osamentas are responsible for keeping people ill and constantly paying for treatment, the whole story is based on conspiracy theories like that.

Once their project had found success, he was approached by the devil at a Blood and Bone party, pretty typical Faustian contract. This was a particular greed demon named Euronymus, and Karsten was offered immense wealth in exchange for his soul. Though being in a demonic arrangement doesn't end there. Aside from participating in the society's rituals (offerings to Moloch, humilliation rituals, cannibalistic rituals, orgies, etc) he had to offer constant sacrifices to Euronymus, one of them being his first born, another being the opening of a hell portal.

So two birds with one stone, he built his hospital ON the portal, which he could use to profit from patients and also allow demons into earth so they can carry on Euronymus' business. Though like i said, the sacrificing of the first born didn't work, so he sent him to work at the cursed hospital where he could possibly be killed, potentially hitting 3 birds with one stone.

After Minerva's death, he remarried 3 more times, always searching for another 3 children, but he never really loved the second or third wife as much (one of them was too young and slept with his son, the other one was only after his riches and was mysteriously killed by flesh eating bacteria) and by the time he married the third wife he was too old to procreate. Without illuminati pawns, he lost some clout in the society.

This is already so long. He cut contact with Diedrik because he married Kyrie who was below his social class, only reappearing by surprise at his union ceremony with Tristan who was from a well regarded family, but that's maybe a story for another time.

When you walk in on your parents having a satanic ritual party am i right

Karsten and Rich are best friends since high school, they were hoping to merge their two companies with Diedrik and Diva’s marriage but it turned out like this.

The hidden horror movie reference in this is that Diedrik’s office is the doctor’s office from a Cure for Wellness except the deer is a skeleton.

The friends and I are doing this challenge with all of our roleplay characters and these are some of my favorite sketches.

Idk if I’ve explained it before but Karsten sold his soul to a demon and he built the hospital as an offering to him.  It took 16 years to build it.  Diedrik was supposed to die in there.
