#;despair

Friendly reminder, and I do mean friendly, this isn’t directed at anyone in particular it’s preemptive before I have this problem again. If you want to plot with Despair it’s a LOT easier for me if you have a definite idea of what you want. Despair is a tricky muse and while I love them , to play them right risks a lot of godmodding if I don’t know exactly what’s cool and what’s not cool between me and the other mun.

I have to put a lot of work into crafting what Despair will say to your character, looking through headcanon and bios and digging a lot and I might miss things or maybe even misread/misinterpret stuff. I don’t mean to but it just goes to prove how intensive a character Despair can be and one of the reasons they are on a multimuse instead of their own blog, as I can burn out on their character pretty fast if I’m not careful.

Despair

first time they peak into his noggin - “Such sweet despair in this one, shame to be one of the stone. Harder to crack but sweeter for the inevitable struggle.”

about his tattoos - “One for each broken moment, a little soul chipped away from the inside, a little ink added to the outside.”

Millie

first meeting - “He’s terribly crass. Are all dwarves like this?” 

about his tattoos - “Oh Maker, that must be makeup. Is–Is it permanent?! Andraste’s woolen socks wouldn’t that hurt?!”

    Despair still retains some amount of muscle memory from Lucinda’s body and mind. It is how they manage to walk, speak common, know of basic functions like eating and sleeping and other things that are needed to keep the body they possess alive.

    Despair is not a fast acting demon, they will whittle away and feed off the emotions of a target for weeks and even months at a time.

    Despair does not always seek to kill their victims, at times they are spared when living is the more painful option for them. Other times it is because another, with more potent sorrow catches their attention.
