some twst headcanons i have!!

(mostly for characters' appearances)

◍ Rook has dimples

◍ Deuce had multiple ear piercings during his delinquent phase, he no longer wears them

◍ Cater actually has brown hair and just dyes it ginger. he also likes to change his hairstyle every couple of months. sometimes he dyes it differently, sometimes he has different bangs, sometimes he just has something completely new

◍ Kalim, seeing Cater's and Lilia's dyed hair, also wanted to try. you can guess what Jamil's reaction was

◍ sometimes pop music club just get together and paint each other's nails all evening

◍ Riddle has freckles

◍ Epel has long eyelashes

◍ Ortho and Idia have a greek nose

◍ Idia is transmasc. he just is. idk this is like one of my two main gender/sexuality hcs for twst cast (the other one is Vil using he/she pronouns but that's practically canon so)

◍ Malleus has black scales on his body. aside from the canon ones on his forehead, he also has some on his spine, around his shoulder blades and a little bit on his arms

◍ also his nails are just naturally black, he doesn't paint them

◍ many characters have scars:

- Deuce: a few scars on his hands and one on his lips that are left from his delinquent phase

- Epel: a small scar on his forehead under his bangs from the time he fell and hit his head as a kid, as well as a couple tiny scars on his fingers from when he was just learning apple carving

- Ace: small scars on his hands, elbows and knees, also from falling a bit too hard

- Ruggie: a few scars on his hands and knees. also has calluses on his hands

- Lilia: multiple different scars from the war. they weren't able to fully heal, since they were left by iron weapons

- Rook: scars all around his body from all the harsh training he endured as a kid. he used to have calluses on his hands, but Vil gave him a list of hand creams with instructions on how to use them, so his hands are more soft now

- Idia: a scar on his arm from encountering a phantom as a kid

that is not all, i just don't have any specific ideas for the rest

◍ Vil has moles on his right hand and on his collarbone (both of which Rook loves to kiss quite a lot)

◍ Azul has horizontal pupils

◍ he also has a lot of moles on his body

◍ Idia doesn't like his fire hair (for multiple reasons), but there is one good thing about it – it doesn't require any care at all

◍ Ruggie has vitiligo

◍ i really liked people's hcs of Leona having dreadlocks with gold jewelry so im adopting it

◍ Rook, Azul and Sebek are ambidextrous

◍ after a long day (and if she doesn't have any other plans) Vil likes to take a long bath

There are a number of things in Crimson Shroud I was kind of iffy about that put me off playing it, but now that I am I actually find I'm liking it quite a bit. The writing, art, and music are all very moody in a way that's familiar to me (Yasumi Matsuno + Basiscape, you know how it is lol, plus I think the guy who did the art took notes from Akihiko Yoshida) and while I originally found the tabletop aesthetic to be off-putting (your guys are always represented by little tabletop figurines, and dice that you physically roll with the stylus are a big part of the mechanics) over time it's really really growing on me. I think it's kinda cute ngl.

I feel like this is the type of game I would've been obsessed with if it had come out in the early 2000s and I'd played it then. Really weird, very stylistic, thick with lore for a relatively short game, not very well known, moody tone... Like it brings Summoner to mind, actually, which was a flop of an RPG that came out in the early 2000s that was also openly and heavily inspired by Dungeons & Dragons, but also I have a lot of fond memories of it lol. And that game was also very moody

Also you can totally tell this was intended to be a sequel to Vagrant Story originally, it wears its spiritual predecessor on its sleeve. It really feels like a journey through Lea Monde abstracted through figurines, dice, and dungeon maps. This might be heretical to say... but I'm kinda... enjoying it more than I was Vagrant Story, LMAO. I think for two reasons: 1. turn-based combat is more familiar to me, so I'm adapting to Crimson Shroud's mechanical depth much more quickly, and 2. the major female character in this game, Frea, is actually playable, and is your party's linchpin. Will always be lamenting Callo Merlose's demotion to NPC in vanilla Vagrant Story for game memory reasons u_u

The main dude is also growing on me unfortunately. "Giauque," the stupidest possible version of "Jack." I had my hackles up when he internally referred to Frea as a she-dog early on (shortly after she was revealed to be a member of an oppressed fantasy ethnic group, which like. I don't even want to get into all that shit right now, but it's the other reason I was put off by this game) but over time I think it's clear that was just a very poor way of demonstrating their usual dynamic, which is that he took Frea under his wing and likes her quite a bit, but portrays himself as a gruff, amoral lout, so he prefers to bicker instead of be effusive. The implication is that they're a bit like each other IMO, both too sharp-tongued for their own good

I also know a ton of spoilers so I'm paying lots of attention to Frea in the frame story... We'll have to see how it's handled, but I do like that the main antagonist of this game is a woman. So few games feature a woman as the primary villain, and even if they do, they find ways to blunt her impact (like Ultima in FFT, she's resurrected at the ass end of the story and then Ramza & co. kill her immediately), so I'm curious to see where Crimson Shroud will go with Abigail (an insane name for a villainess in a dark fantasy piece btw)

BASICALLY I think if CS was a fifty-hour game I might find it more exhausting, but since it barely hits twenty if you're taking your time, I'm a lot more invigorated by it. The short runtime works in its favor IMO.
