#laurence the first vicar kin

[kincalling]

Hi, I’m Laurence the First Vicar from Bloodborne looking for anyone. Interact and I’ll reach out. 18+ please, thank you!

[fantomette22]

Guys i did something funny again. I know it’s been done a lot but here, have Rom & Micolash divorce selfie aka choir & mensis divorce too

[katyspersonal]

Laurence is not ok (yeah yeah we know but hear me out)

I just smoked another idea. You know how Sedative is blood-based?

I just realised that Laurence might have not just gotten the idea over observing its helpful effects, but also develop blood addiction upon using Sedatives himself!

He is affiliated with Moon Presence, and it is recorded as far as a note in Byrgenwerth, that led to him knowing how to create Hunter's Dream. But 'Moon' might be pretty insanity-inducing! Mensis Cages that suppress personality so whatever you're seeing doesn't absolutely destroy you might have not been even created yet. Besides, even if it existed, if it suppresses self, that'd be counter-productive, as Laurence has individual ambitions and plans of course. He'd need to think and feel, not just vibe in ave like some cultist. And I think Blindfold Caps that Willem and Choir wear have similar purpose, only instead of suppressing self, they direct what you can and cannot see, and connected with following 'Star'; when 'Moon' is a higher secret power above and hiding behind the 'Star'.

( x )

What I am saying is, Laurence himself is not as simple! He might have gotten so attached to the blood for personal reasons as well, if it was helping him to follow the 'Moon' and not have a mental breakdown xd Basically having to chug Sedatives like water.

(On the side note, it is all messed up, with his main hunter Ludwig being affiliated with the "moonlight" too, since Moon Presence governs the hunt... Laurence might have gotten additional fuel for his corruption arc from a Great One no less than Micolash. Offering to replace 'Laurence fucking sucks' with 'Flora fucking sucks' /lh )

Random Bloodborne headcanons post

(as I need to empty my head)

-Ludwig comes from a warm, southern country, he loves grapes and night walks. He had a predisposition to gain insight from his background, as his homeland had a philosophy close to Isz's (stars and sky are religious symbols). And since Laurence was aware of this, during Ludwig's communion with the Church, he handed him blood mixed with Burgenwerth samples from the Fishing Hamlet (out of curiosity)

-Rom's ascension was her own initiative and the result of research approved by Willem. Unlike Micolash, she conducted all her experiments on herself. As the last experiment she became pregnant and could finally hear the call of the Ebrietas, for she had discovered the subtle and delicate bond of the Kin. Only Willem knew of her intentions to use her own child to communicate with the Great Ones. And Laurence (the child's father), best friend Caryll, Yurie, who was in love with her, and the rest were left unaware

-Logarius felt sympathy for Ludwig, which resulted in a brief (because of the disasters in Yharnam) attachment. Ludwig carried the ideals of chivalry, and it was he who reminded Logarius of a “paragon of kindness”. In fact, Logarius' great quote about good and evil deeds is a paraphrase of Ludwig's words, remembered as the wisdom of the former. Logarius always knew his journey would end in death and bitterness, but would have been broken to learn how Ludwig died - labeled a “monster,” a convert, clinging only to the Light of his Holy Moonlight sword. They both would have preferred to die in battle as humans, by each other's blades.

-After Maria died, Gehrman changed. He was out of his mind for about a month, and Laurence forbade anyone to visit the hunters' workshop. Gehrman's mind left him and the Doll was created. The Doll heard many tears and drunken swearing from its grief-stricken creator. Gehrman spent evenings with the Doll, talked to her as if she were Maria alive, took her under his arm, and was generally insane. However, this obsession had passed, thanks to Laurence. The Doll later became literally alive in Hunter's dream. Poor Gehrman

-Caryll had heard the bell ringing since he was young and seen a face in the window at night. At first he was afraid, but as he grew older, he became interested. As he learned, he saw a Pthumerian woman. One night he disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only a wheelchair and an open window. No one knows where he went, and his corpse has never been found. (I think I wrote down that headcanon already, but I like too much :^))

-Logarius had always despised Rom for her excessive initiative in the affairs of the Church. For her antics, her attempts at leadership, and, above all, her familiarity with the vicar. He suggested to Laurence that he should “show her” where her place is, but was rudely rebuffed. I think to Logarius she would be a “fallen woman”, if only because she actually has a relationship with the vicar but spends all her time with Caryll. And he wouldn't care that their friendship is almost a familial bond, that Caryll is asexual, that they are each other's support and backbone. I think he's too conservative to realize that!

-Blood Saint Adeline is an aristocrat, and her little jabot was always on her. Actually, her family was against the Healing Church in general, but the girl was a rebel by nature, and so she first joined the Church, started helping the doctors, and then gave herself and her blood for transfusion.

-Logarius (Rogeriusz) is the brother of the King of Cainhurst, Annalise's consort. Actually, brother's death to create a child of the Blood, Logarius' contempt for Annalise as a woman, and his adherence to the ideals of “Pure” blood - led him to the Church. My Logarius is a big chauvinist, an unabashed asshole, and a testosterone warehouse! Perhaps the only thing that appealed to his conscience was Ludwig. But that didn't concern his plans for Cainhurst - here Logarius saw his purpose and meaning - to punish and destroy the unrighteous descendants of his lineage

-Maria and Logarius - actually not a bad pairing, I think! Initially, the two experienced sympathy for each other - Maria didn't know why he joined the Church, and he hoped Maria would share his ideals with him. But the more Maria learned about him, the more Logarius frightened her. He didn't know what she'd been through in Fishing Hamlet or what kind of burden she carried, nor did he generally give much thought to such a thing as “trauma.” So he treated her as a young, ambitious girl he knew from his life in Cainhurst. Perhaps their acquaintance would have ended in a duel, had it not been for events that drove them in different directions. Maria to the Research Hall, and him to preparing a raid on the castle.

-Logarius didn't appreciate Byrgenwerth' squad, Caryll, the whole gang of scientists. But he took an interest in Gehrman and hunting. He was always polite to him, respectful, like to an elder

Gehrman and Caryll were good friends! And while the old hunter was still on his feet, he was perfecting Caryll's chair, following the process of carving runes into the wood. The two found common ground easily, and it made Laurence mildly jealous. (To both Gehrman was like a father.)

Edgar grew up in the Church' Orphanage, though he was related to a respected scholar, Yurie .She didn't want to deal with him at first, since she never knew his mother or him, and she also had a job at the Research Hall. But when there was a risk that he might fall under the Church's experiments, Yurie took him. In fact, the boy grew up under her supervision and care, and also with Madlene (my name for Imposter Iosefka), who was dating Yurie. Essentially, he was raised by two women.

-Henriette, Alfred, Edgar and Bloody Crow of Cainhurst - are the youngest characters in the game (Gascoigne's daughters don't count)

-Willem was appointed “Head” of the Choir, but only formally, Laurence just wanted to make it appear that he was still involved in the affairs of the Healing Church. Willem himself was not interested in this, he was busy researching and helping Rom

-Many of the people of Yharnam still honor the old faith that lived here before the Church. The faith that replaced the Great Ones long-long ago, the faith of light and goodness. When Laurence brought it all back, many houses secretly turned against him.

-Damian had a large family. His parents, a merchant father and a puritan mother, died alone in their home on the outskirts of Yharnam. One of Damian's sisters disappeared in Hemwick, an older brother was one of the White Doctors of the Church and was torn apart by a monster, another sister died in a fire in one of the stores in Yharnam where she worked. Younger brother Jiri is buried next to Hemwick, and of all his family, Jiri's grave is the most visited by Damian himself. The family had always held to the old faith and did not approve of the Church that had come, nor did they approve of Damian's involvement with it. If they found out he was a Tomb Prospector, there would probably be a major scandal!

-Rom was the first owner of Augur of Ebrietas! When these babies were found in the catacombs, she was the first to be able to bond with one of them.

-Imposter Iosefka hates Rom because she thinks she's too naive and delicate, but also envies her a little - Rom's research is approved by the vicar himself, she's helped by Caryll, and sometimes Micolash lends a hand. And Madlene does everything on her own. She also has to “save” Yurie from her attachment to Rom in a way, because Yurie has suffered a very painful heartbreak.

-Damian is a bit obsessed with the subject of children! And it's an oddity he's trying to hide. He would operate on himself to change his body and be able to have a child (if he could). But all he can do is secretly pray to Oedon that one day he will have a child, adopted or not

-In Byrgenwerth age Willem often had affairs with female teachers! He is not a bad poet, and therefore sometimes wrote something for the ladies and invited them to a joint evening C:

-Gremia's mother is from the same land as Laurence's mother

Logarius is my personal diva of Yharnam. I swear he would wear high heels and win in "Yharnam's next Top model"

how can an event be centered around hunters and have the Big Bad be a bishop (Laurence) who resides with the chapel (Healing Church) and have enemies called seabornes, including one of them being the first [vicar] who ascended from an ægir (human) to a seaborn (Kin)

As a scholar once said, “We are born of the blood, made men by the blood, undone by the blood. Our eyes are yet to open... Fear the old blood.”

i'm emergency kin assigning you laurence, the first vicar and alfred from bloodborne

wtf

[arcanistsonofianite]

Hi guys this is the Moon Presence from Bloodborne. It is a Great One and master of the Hunter’s Dream, which is the main rest point in Bloodborne. It is one of the many Great Ones, powerful beings that are like gods in the world of Yharnam, and has bound Gehrman, the First Hunter to the Dream. The first human to know of him was the First Vicar, Laurence, who summoned it to Yharnam for unknown reasons. It wishes to have its kin hunted, probably so it can be the most powerful Great One, and does so by manipulating the Hunters. You can fight him if you consume 3 of the Third of an Umbilical Cords item are consumed, if not, the Moon Presence will bind you to the Hunters Dream, as it did Gehrman. Defeating this Great One unlock the “Childhood Beginning’s” ending, where you become a Great one yourself. Tell me what you guys think of this beast/Great One/Character in the comments below.
