Ended up creating a Player character of my own, oops.

Anyways, meet "Hero" (yes, the quotation marks are part of the name). A rising star in the brickbattling scene. Despite their charming exterior and the amount of people following them, they don't tend to have the best intentions in mind, often behaving as an entitled influencer. Their involvement with saving Builderman was less of an heroic thing and more of what beating the bad guys in front of everyone would bring to their name... of course, they didn't expect what continued.

"We both know Goldsmith isn't too happy. Maybe now, there's a part of him that regrets pulling me out of those murky shallows. He can try and punish me. He can try and drain me and drown me just as he did that faithful night. But he's brought a true beast into the world. And if this animal is cornered, let that world beware - that this beast has fangs."

Because to me, that's... that's rebellion, finally. The whole episode you can already gradually see it brewing. The realization setting in that - especially after seeing how little Avid (or anyone else) has to do to get in Scott's good graces while you have to tear yourself apart to earn only a shred of it - that yeah, you know what, this has been fucked up. And maybe I do want to do something about it. And maybe I do have the power to do that, too. So you act against your Sire's orders again. So it's Goldsmith now, no longer Sire. So you go stand on top of the treestump to look down at your maker, your killer, everything that symbolizes what you're afraid off, no longer kneeling or grovelling on the ground before him. And then there's the speech at the end, perfectly rounding it up. You've had it. No more people walking over you, pushing you around. Not appreciating you. You're done.

Day 2: Clawmarks.
