Karlheinz
Tumblr media
Permissions
Please feel free to check any of the Sakamaki Bros.’ permission lists.  It’s pretty repetitively the same.
The only exceptions:
Shipping - Within any verse he’s participating in, it’s entirely possible for him to form romantic and/or sexual partnerships with anyone who suits his needs, fancy, etc.  Canonically had three wives, you know what you’re signing up for if you aim for this.  However, as Karlheinz is very good at controlling his partners to suit his needs, I would prefer that many of his romances not get commented on by the public unless they’re somewhere they could be witnessed or if the individual themselves talks about it.  Feel free to ask me!
Participation - Hop into getting involved in plots and storylines!  Just do the dashboard commentary thing and tag this blog so I can be sure to see it.  This much is the same.  However, for some people, plots will need to have certain secrets kept, etc. until later.  You’re still welcome to get involved, but it might be better to discuss with me and any other involved players how to participate instead of commenting on the grapevine for those particular plot aspects.

None?   DISLIKES.  People not doing what he wants them to do in his experiments.
Tumblr media
Appearance
*Will be updated as various ‘personae’ are implemented.
As ‘Karlheinz’, at least as most of his sons know him: A pale-haired, golden-eyed figure who dresses in extravagant capes.  His hair falls past his knees in waves and he looks absolutely ethereal.
As ‘Reinhart’, the school nurse, he is pale with blond hair wrapped into a ponytail and wears glasses.
Tumblr media
Personality
One of the most powerful creatures in the demon world, he is viewed by the vampires (the bat clan) as a God.  Which may or may not affect his personality, but the fact is that it is universally understood that a man that’s over 2000 years old is in want of a new life goal.  Or death.
INTELLIGENT AND MANIPULATIVE: Karlheinz rarely directly engages these days, usually pulling strings in the background.  He manipulates for the better and for worse, only determined to get closer to his personal goals.  If that heals some and hurts others, so be it. 
AFFECTION: It’s well-known that demons do not experience the same emotions as humans, or at least, they do not act on nor feel them the way humans would.  Even within the “emotions” and “bonds” of demons, Karlheinz is incapable of deep affectionate sentiments and believes that all demons are similarly incapable.  He is obsessed with human emotions despite or because of his inability, glorifying them and incorporating them into his new demonkind 3.0 ideas.  His inability to feel this deep affection doesn’t save him from confusion and hesitant behavior on the rare occasion his plans and experiments are not succeeding.
It’s worth noting that he is considerably kinder when engaging with humans, as he blatantly punishes his own kind for their very nature (of which he is entirely aware).  However, humans break much more easily, so this may be a necessity for engaging those tools compared to his sons.
FAMILY: His sons, wives, etc. are all tools and test subjects with which to create a new race and “save” the Demon World.  If they become failed experiments, he has no issue disposing of them himself.  When it comes to his kids, he’s extremely neglectful but does not hesitate to order their punishment when they displease him.  He’s imprisoned Laito, sent Shuu to the North Pole, and tossed Subaru into the ocean.  Most of his abuse was directly on his wives and directly affected how they would raise their sons, however, for which most of the Sakamaki children loathe him.  
PRINCE CHARMING: Karlheinz excels at charming and manipulating others.  As with Cordelia, he promises everything to obtain them, spoils them, and then acts in whatever manner best executes his experiment.
Tumblr media
History
Under construction.  
Quick summary: Really good contender for ‘worst dad’ and ‘worst vampire dad’ awards.
Tumblr media
Verses
Brief summaries of the verses for Karlheinz along with potential links for those less familiar with Diabolik Lovers but still want to interact with him.  For the sake of keeping things clean, encouraging community-wide and cooperative storytelling in roleplay, and not letting things get too crazy, verses will be limited.  More may be made over time as needed.
Summaries:
| DL Anime | DL More Blood Anime | Haunted Dark Bridal | More Blood | (Coming Soon)
VERSE - HAUNTED DARK BRIDAL
Karlheinz is...somewhere.  Doing things.  Like usual.
*This verse will be typically be the default, 'main verse'. In this, it is assumed that Yui Komori is staying at the Sakamaki household with some version of the first game having taken place. If the second game is included, it's with the idea that Yui stayed with the Sakamakis.
Verse Details | Tag: #V; KARLHEINZ; HAUNTED DARK BRIDAL
VERSE - MORE BLOOD
Karlheinz is somewhere doing things, but now there’s Mukamis!
If for some reason it's absolutely necessary to differentiate between the verse above and a verse where More Blood has certainly occured, but Yui did not (at least initially) stay with the Sakamakis and instead is currently living with the Mukamis or was, until recently, still living with the Mukamis.  Rivalry abounds and attempts to procure Yui are likely.
Verse Details | Tag: #V; KARLHEINZ; MORE BLOOD
VERSE - MISC.
Posts that could take place in the Sakamaki or Mukami verses but involve duplicates (whether Yui or others) in the same scene in a manner that would be hard to pass off as typical flow for those verses.  Also includes nearly ANY time fellow characters are staying at the mansion, otherwise we’d end up with verses of 20+ additional characters hanging out in the Sakamaki villa.  
Verse Details | Tag:#V; KARLHEINZ; MISC
SITUATIONAL VERSE TAGS
#V; KARLHEINZ; UNIVERSAL
Posts that can easily be assumed to have occured in either the Sakamaki or Mukami verses, typically answering asks, etc. that aren’t directly related to events unique to their timelines.
#V; KARLHEINZ; WHAT IFS & #V; KARLHEINZ; ONESHOTS
Likely reserved for one-off threads exploring a “what if”, a romantic meme that would otherwise be inappropriate, etc.  If a meme doesn’t quite fit with one of the existing timelines, it’ll get one of these.
Tumblr media
Trivia
Successfully cucked by Richter for years, but he kind of encouraged it to begin with so who really loses?
Can and will wear you out in the bedroom and leave you a flower to wake up to in the morning.
Gave Reiji a pocketwatch that shows how much time is left until the end of the world.  Demon world?  Human world?  Who knows.
Really just wanted to know if Shuu would actually fight back against polar bears when he sent him to the north pole.  Now he knows.
“Even when he loses, he wins” is a theme with this guy.  I hate him, too.  I know.

Horror Movie list: 2020 edition
We’ve seen so much real-world horror this year that it’s hard to top it. But in the spirit of all previous Halloween lists, I’m going to go ahead with this anyway.
TOP THIRTEEN!
In no particular order, the 13 movies you should be watching this week.
attack the block: a classic, 10/10
snowpiercer: uprising of the underclass. 9/10
people under the stairs: BELONGS IN 2020. 9/10
society: a better documentary than They Live. 9/10
contagion: it drags a little, but have you gotten your hydroxychloroquine forsythia yet? 9/10
us: class uprising, metaphorically. 9/10
green room: racism, cults, punk rock culture, innawoods. 10/10
the crazies: the kind of year it’s been. we didn’t realize our neighbors were this fucked up. 10/10
the thing (even the sequel is good) every year, all the time, we’re gonna find out who’s the thing. 10/10
children of men: how we’ve reacted isn’t much better. 10/10
invasion of the body snatchers: you can’t tell if people are assholes or not, until now. now you can tell. 9/10
the dead zone: we need this. we needed this a while ago. 8/10 (points deducted for effects)
dead snow: We all wish we had snowmobiles and axes these days. 10/10
The rest of the movies aren’t listed in order of best/worst, just as I remember them. Themes listed and my short thoughts, and a 1-10 scale for my personal enjoyment. There’s been a lot of shitty horror made since my previous lists (see here, here and here) (and a list of horror passing various analytical tests, HERE)
click through for the big list.
movies since the last list
Don’t be Afraid of the Dark: it’s about a little kid. Monster movie. Haunted house horror. 5/10 creepy little guys
Resolution/the Endless: endless is the perfect sequel. Existential horror. Time travels. Cults. 10/10
Autopsy of Jane Doe: medical, family issues, witches, existential dread about death, reminiscent of return of the living dead, slow burn, revenge, a new favorite. 10/10
 Kingdom: yes it’s a series. It’s the only horror series I’ve been able to sit through. Zombie/plague, politics, battle scenes. Science. 9/10 perfectly done
 Spectral: Army guys. Dimensional horror. Fight scenes. Folklore. 6/10 not bad, fighting gets tired after a while.
 Await Further Instructions: Racism. Family gatherings. Holidays. Just how people would behave. 9/10
The Boy: Dolls. Ghoooooooosts. Creepy family relationships. House horror. no kids! 8/10
Demonic: ghost hunters, paranormal, twist ending, police presence. well acted! 7/10
Sinister 2: like most sequels, not good. about kids of course. Bad folklore references. 2/10
The Stranger (2014): about a kid. mom was a vampire apparently… viral plagues, body horror. small town living. 9/10
Bliss: Artists and art culture. Great characters. Party. 8/10
He Never Dies: not a bad role for Rollins. immortality, violence, paranoia, revenge of a sort. 7/10
Monster Party: serial killers, family dynamics, surprising facts about rehab. 6/10
We Go On: some plot holes here… existential horror. afterlife, ghosts, stalking. 7/10
House of the Devil: slow burn. predictable ending. rape, demons, cult. filmed beautifully but so what? 4/10
Spring: folklore, relationships, body horror. INCREDIBLE. 9/10
Terrified: plot holes. ghosts/existential horror, dimensions. effects are great. 8/10
Cruising: serial killer, homophobia, cop content, sexual violence. a classic, acted perfectly, directed perfectly. 9/10
The Silence: plot holes SO MANY PLOT HOLES. great creatures. monster movie/apocalyptic. 5/10
Starfish: indie music vinyl collection part-anime monster movie. I know that SOUNDS good but… every instance of “it was all a dream” removed one point. confusing plot, nice monster. SO SLOW. 3/10
We are Still Here: vintage feeling. haunted house/rotten small town. family problems. cold weather. 7/10
Malevolent: pretty decent for a “ghost hunters” movie. 6/10
Beyond the Black Rainbow: cults, mad science. If you liked “the invitation” you might like this. 5/10
Spiral: this one scared me. With the way the world is now I felt real fear watching this. Building dread. homophobia, xenophobia, cults. 8/10
Color out of Space: Nicholas Cage falls in love with a meteor and it’s nothing like the Lovecraft story. Just watch Lovecraft Country instead (unless you want to watch a comedy, it IS Cage, after all. and it got 3 extra points for casting Chong) 3/10
The Fields: about a kid. but also about how creepy the rural areas of PA can be. great setting, great plot. 9/10
Southbound: an anthology, which isn’t as coherent as I wished it was. some sections are worth the watch. 6/10
Void: cults, medical and body horror, and interdimensional mad science. 8/10
Under the Skin: strange aliens, with strange goals. rape, of course, because the main character’s a “woman”. 6/10
Get Out: Holy shit rich white people scare me. 9/10
Antiviral: medical and body horror, doppelgangers, and paranoia. 8/10
Mayhem: Every workplace should be unionized. infection, medical horror, violence with office supplies. 10/10
digging up the marrow
Eli: you’ve seen this movie before, but you won’t know it until the end of the movie. I’m not sure I like that. it’s also about a kid. medical horror, demons, ghosts. 4/10
in the tall grass: Time travel/elder gods and of course the King fear of Native sacred ground. well made. 8/10
it comes at night: paranoia, disease and isolation all wrapped up neatly in a good mystery story. 7/10
they look like people: Paranoia, so much paranoia. 9/10
Baskin: demons and deals. 6/10
Ma: just an incredible revenge story. teenagers, but not about teenagers. Great cast and slow build of dread throughout. 9/10
Midsommar: revenge movie with a cult to help it along. slow, and pretty. overrated. 6/10
XX: anthology that’s a 50/50 hit. rated slightly higher because the hits are really, really worth it. 6/10
Train to Busan: zombies aren’t as tired out as a genre as you’d think. yeah, it’s about a kid. ugh. 7/10
The Golem: antisemitism, colonial times, women fixing shit. yes, it’s about a kid. fuck sake 7/10
Thirst: Catholic vampire romance horror. What more is there? medical horror too. 7/10
Into the Forest: I understand that there’s two women as main characters during a power outage apocalypse so there’s got to be rape, but still. 4/10
Tales of Halloween: gives trick r treat a run for its money. ADRIENNE BARBEAU. 7/10
Platform: seems more relevant now than last year. Very violent; plot holes or three. Great acting. 6/10
The Vampire’s Assistant: I’m not usually a horror-comedy fan, but this movie had it all. spiders too. 8/10
Don’t Kill It: fresh premise, good plot. demons, possession, and paranoia. 8/10
Cold Skin: everything the Lighthouse SHOULD have been. Colonizer/Native metaphors. monster movie, with a twist. Antarctic isolation horror. 9/10
Hereditary: overrated, but not bad. family issues, cults, motherhood. yes it’s about a kid/teenager. 6/10
Demon: addresses the leftover horror of genocide, family issues, weddings, and being a stranger in a strange land. 8/10
Patchwork: technically a horror comedy which I usually dislike. Still, it was done well- callbacks to reanimator! no rape scenes, which is amazing for a film with 3 women leads. 8/10
A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night: unsatisfying ending, but excellent throughout. classic, straightforward vampire story, in a fresh setting. 8/10
  older movies I strongly suggest
rare exports: Santa? not a good thing. 9/10
the stuff: addiction, consumer culture. 7/10
return of the living dead parts 1,2 and 3: 10/10, 8/10, 9/10
the relic: science gone wrong due to egos. 8/10
pioughkeepsie tapes: serial killer culture done as a fake true-crime documentary. 10/10 if you watch a lot of those, 7/10 if you don’t get those references
the diabolical: ghosts or time travel or some kind of dimension warps? 9/10
the ruins: when the locals tell you to fuck off, fuck off. this is a killer plant movie. 9/10
the girl next door: pure American sociopathy. rape, torture, and the “good old days” 9/10
splice: mad science and monsters. rape and rape-adjacent scenes, of course, since women are lead characters. 7/10
grave encounters: 10/10 of you watch ghost bro shows. 6/10 if you don’t
dog soldiers: possibly the perfect werewolf movie. 10/10
dead birds: possibly the perfect Civil War movie. 10/10
body bags: anthology. hits and misses. 6/10
dead alive: the perfect zombie romance movie. Nothing has ever come close. 10/10
vamp: it has Grace Jones. 9/10

candyman: city horror, a rarity. real bees. 10/10
freaked: horror comedy. 6/10
the mist: the best ending. 10/10
the taking of Deborah Logan: medical horror plus some supernatural stuff. 9/10
it follows: disease is on everyone’s mind right now. pretentious, but excellent concept and plot. 8/10
Ganja and Hess: classic vampires. 10/10
the girl with all the gifts: how to make a zombie movie worth watching after all these decades. no humor at all. perfect. except it’s about a kid. 9/10
the horde: what it might actually be like if there were zombies. no information, no help. 9/10

Willard: rats, cats, and a weirdo’s revenge 9/10
cold fish: serial killer culture 8/10
night watch/day watch fantasy horror with every creature you can imagine and the cops that watch them. good vs evil without any gods in the way. 10/10
