wait does void just.. hurt anything it comes in contact with? or can void if controlled can pick specific things to not destroy or vice-versa?

oh do you have commissions as well

Alright strap in everyone, it's yapping time once more-

So Void is technically speaking not harmful. It's a substance that has a certain level of consciousness. We saw the effects that happen if it is provoked/out right angry in both games. It lashes out at anything that moves.

But one thing I found interesting was this. In an act 3 conversation with Shakra, Hornet tells her that the Void can feel the presence of Soul and therefore the Bugs in Bellheart.

So here is what I came up with. Void or beings made of it don't produce Soul naturally. They need to absorb it from other living creatures. Why would they do that? Because Soul is life itself and we know Void is believed to be empty, devoid of life. So it consumes Soul to feel less empty. Get extra energy.

This is the reason it is considered dangerous. Because the Void itself takes Soul faster than a Bug can regenerate it, completely draining them and killing them in the process. Think of blood loss but there is no open wound. It has no concept of a Bugs limit unfortunately.

Ghost and Hollow learned to control this urge. They know not to steal Soul from others. In fact, Quirrel and some other friends are willing to share Soul with them.

As for commissions-

I'm actively working on getting everything ready for opening them (getting PayPal to work right now is a nightmare...let's just say that :'>...)
