Halo, my ghoul OC (original species!)

The first ghoul I’ve designed using my personal ghoul lore HCs, which I plan to complete at a later date. I ship her with Secondo entirely because it makes me happy, and… I want to redesign her with white fur on her hands and feet instead of red. For now, though, this is what I have done, so oh well!

Ghoul type: Wrath

Gender: Cis woman (she/her)

Sexuality: Demisexual/Biromantic

(Backstory under the cut, CW for gore and murder ghoul shenanigans. Very long!)

Halo is a wrath ghoul, one of nine known ghoul species that descended from the angels that fell from Heaven after Lucifer’s rebellion. These ghouls are the most dangerous to humans, as their society revolves around hunting and killing humans. This can clearly be seen in the wardrobe of royals, which is made from tanned human leather.

Halo was one of these royals before her summoning. Current rulers give Lucifer their consent to transform a ghoul of their choice (usually within their own family) into a ruler when their time has passed, as rulers have unique sets of powers that can only be granted by Him. When a ruler is prepared to retire, they give their preferred successor a task to complete before they ascend in their place. For Halo, her mother Queen Detritus tasked her with seeking out a summoning portal, murdering a human, and returning to Hell with a human heart in her mouth as proof.

As she had extreme confidence in Halo, this task was made to be incredibly easy- most summoning circles are created by foolhardy horror junkies who have no way of keeping ghouls from killing them, much less tethering them to the mortal plane. Without a ritual to tether them, ghouls will return to Hell shortly after being summoned. Needless to say, most humans have no chance of surviving an attack from an average wrath ghoul, much less a well-trained royal ghoul, so she was expected to be back with her task completed almost as soon as she found her first summoning circle.

Unfortunately for all parties involved, her summoners were the grand clergy of Ghost, who had prepared for absolutely anything a freshly summoned ghoul could throw at them.

Halo immediately tried to lunge at the first human she saw, and was instantly met with a spiritual barrier she had no hope of breaking. That doesn’t mean she didn’t try, though, and the Clergy, having never summoned such an aggressive Ghoul before, wondered if they should even bother tethering her. Secondo, ever the impatient one, insisted that he needed his troupe of ghouls summoned as soon as possible, and scoffed at the less experienced summoners who ran screaming upon seeing her terrifying attempt at a brutal attack.

Eventually, the Clergy found it safer to tether her and render her unconscious with Omega’s quintessence while they tried in vain to change Secondo’s mind about keeping this ghoul. Surely, there was no chance at taming such a predatory and violent ghoul as Halo- but Secondo disagreed. To the Clergy’s complete shock, he was able to confuse her into buying into the ministry’s greater plan of worshipping Satan… simply by refusing to react to her gnashing teeth and terrifying claws.

Secondo feared many things, but death simply wasn’t one of them.

Impressed by his resolve and this church’s unexpected devotion to Satan, Halo was eventually freed from solitary confinement when it was proven that she wouldn’t spontaneously attack the other ghouls- though she would only get along with a few of them. Even still, Halo desperately thought of ways to free herself from the tether and discreetly kill a human so she could return to her family and her new monarchy. It was all anyone expected of her, all anyone ever admired about her, and surely her monarchy would be suffering if something bad happened to Queen Detritus while she was trapped here…

It took a very long time for Halo to accept her situation, but among the many things that helped was Pebble, an earth ghoul, teaching her to drum for the ever-successful band project. Frustratingly, none of the ghouls around her could relate to her struggles topside, as most of them were either normal citizens of ghoul societies or complete rogues before their summoning…

Eventually, though, it was Secondo that Halo felt herself become strangely attached to. He, too, felt as though he was only valued for his status as part of the Emeritus bloodline, and felt like no matter how hard he tried, he was but a puppet in the Clergy’s grand plan, to only be given the illusion of success and grandeur before being tossed aside for whoever they preferred to be next. Though their struggles weren’t the exact same, and Halo was still terrified, the idea that even a human could understand her struggles had her questioning whether she truly wanted to return to Hell.

Months after her summoning, Secondo had pondered the idea himself. He’d kept Halo around to prove to the Clergy that he could hold his own in even the worst situations, but now that she was somewhat tamed, he’d wondered if it was cruel to keep a ghoul that seemed far better suited for Hell trapped on the mortal plane. Over time, though, Halo realized that these humans found fulfillment in serving the Dark One just as she did. If the purpose of the ghouls as a whole were to guard Hell and Lucifer himself… perhaps this was how she was meant to serve Him- by freeing humans from God’s tyrranical grasp and showing them the guidance of the morning star.

The moment she learned that the total contentment she felt around her Papa was what love felt like, Halo found that the taste of human flesh was no longer something she wanted more than to stay with him.

…If Secondo wished for her to kill for him, though, all he had to do was say the word.

Sister: I support all the Papas equally. :)

Also Sister: I don't care for Terzo.

[dewsgremlin]

Everyone is worrying about sister imperator.

Dewdrop: "I hope I can convince Copia to stop at ica maxi on the way home so we can buy cheezdoodles and chicken nuggets for dinner tonight."

Also not forget about Phantom trying to get a better look on seestor

[heich0e]

just had a vivid mental image of kageyama talking to oikawa and iwa at the olympics, telling them about you and the baby, and when he finally walks away and leaves tooru and hajime alone, tooru shudders.

"i've never heard him talk that much," tooru complains, wrapping his arms around himself as if for comfort. "or look like that."

"like what?" iwa snaps, scanning through the papers on his clipboard outlining the day's schedule for the national team. he pays little mind to his childhood friend's dramatics.

"so..."

oikawa uses hajime's momentary distraction to smile a bit to himself (something he'd deny until his last breath if anyone ever tried to call him on it.)

"... happy."

[damagedghoulette]

Omega, giving Phantom his monthly check up: Annnd finally, any bad feelings?

Phantom: I miss the days when mum would tell me how many biscuits I was allowed to eat because now I just eat the whole fucking pack and it makes me feel guilty

Copia: …

Swiss: …

Omega: *Staring blankly* …what?

[blackbird5154]

I have a theory about the first song sung by the Papas characterizing them as characters.

Secondo's first concert song was "Secular Haze" - a song with a dark circus atmosphere, praising the Antichrist. As we know from Papaganda and interviews, he likes wigs, silly costumes and noisy parties, hiding his unhappiness behind this.

Terzo's first song was "From the Pinnacle to the Pit". His life path follows the path of Lucifer and Icarus, even the last word sung by him on his albums is "falling" ("Bible"). The higher one soars, the longer it takes to fall, the theme of hubris and the giddiness of success all reflect Terzo.

Copia's first song was "Rats" (acoustic performance). Rats prowl everywhere, small and inconspicuous, and bring death. I think he may have identified with death, as his reign began with the murder of the brothers. And as a bastard, he may have felt like a small animal, despised by all, but capable of revenge.

Papa Trion is the best Alpha Trion

Listen- the backstory and dynamic these two have in my head (especially when Elita is fully grown/upgraded) is something I really need to put to pen and paper

Retired Papa Terzo teaches music to the ministry children while the parents are in service. They make shakers and tambourines out of toilet paper rolls and rice and pennies. He plays lead kazoo but sometimes has back up kazooers. They do holiday shows for the entire congregation where they play 80s covers.

I will die on this hill.

HC where Quintessence Ghouls have ridiculously powerful glamours and can basically hide/add anything to their forms. Other Elements just let them go between Ghoul and Human looks.

When Phantom finds this out, they add bat wings to their glamour.

They are purely cosmetic so they unfortunately can’t fly, (which they found out one night when Swiss dared them to jump out the window and see if they would glide) but they love their bat wings and hates when they have to put them away.

As soon as they get back to the Den or off stage, you best get out of their way because it’s bat wing time. (They unironically say that like a catchphrase every time)

Bonus - They have a picture of them and Papa on their wall, and they both have their bat wings on. Phantom adores that picture.

Some Cardinal Copia Headcanons (because I ;;♡)

Has a pocket watch at all times. Likes to keep track of time in a way that's almost compulsive.

He is the first point of contact for any new siblings that join the ministry, since he is in charge of all introductory tours to the abbey.

He also shares the responsibility of teaching Latin and Italian with other cardinals. He's somewhat strict so he likes for his students to be on time and has high expectations of all of them. Despite all of this, he's very beloved among his students. His goofiness brings a nice contrast that makes him endearing.

A big stickler for routines. Loves to-do lists and reminders. Organization comes easy for him during his Cardinal days, which completely goes out of the window once he becomes Papa.

He simultaneously has beautiful calligraphy AND doctor chicken scratches... both of them undecipherable. Due to this, the higher clergy has forced requested for the Cardinal to typewrite all his paperwork, notes and letters. It is normal to find him hunched over his typewriter until the late hours of the night, mumbling to himself in annoyance.

Poor little darling deals with seasonal allergies often. "Ugh cazzo! goddamn pollen..." He mutters, pulling out his handkerchief yet again. They are the bane of his existence.

He's one of those loud sneezers. The type of sneeze that makes the earth rumble, and the eardrums ring; so whenever he lets one out, he can be heard almost all over the ministry, echoing through the halls. At least is cute to see him walking around with a reddened nose.

He deals with generalized anxiety, so he gets startled easily and is on edge often. Because of this, he is quite fidgety with his hands. He also shakes and bounces his leg a lot while doing long tasks.

The type of person to squint when he's reading something with a particular tiny font. His eyesight is not as great as it once was when younger, so he also carries his glasses with him at all times - old fashioned small glasses that get the job done. And yet, even if he now sees clearly, he still squints while reading the tiny font.

✨HEAR ME OUT✨

I'm very sure, that they have such notice boards in the ministry, where they rank the nice and the naughty ghoul of the week. Just because ghouls are like cats.

Mostly the naughty ones are Dewdrop and Swiss. Sometimes Phantom. Especially when he escaped out of the ministry and went to a candy store.

Rain and Aether are ranked as the nice ghouls most of the time. Aether because he is just so full of love and sweetness. Rain on the other hand is very ambitious about this. He will cry when he isn't the nice ghoul of the week. He will bother everyone by rubbing his head like a cat, snuggling up and asking if he isn't pretty or kind enough to be the nice ghoul of the week.

Week 1 of nice and naughty ghoul

Yes, i posted first the not edited version, sorry i'm dumb.
