sorry

Censure Authoritarian is my favourite character from Realicide; too bad he dies immediately AND THERE'S NO FANART OF HIM AT ALL. ZILCH. </3 I have to do everything. My redesign is inspired by the concept of the ISA (Ideological State Apparatus). Censure is a sentient robot that was manufactured for surveillance. Censure monitors and controls the media through his main body which acts like a radio tower and his many proxies go out and collect information (Censure and his proxies all share the same mind, they're not different individuals). His power relies on enforcing censorship (controlling what is truth and reality) and keeping up an appearance of authority. Censure is physically weaker therefore he avoids direct confrontation, his tactic is to predict (using the data he's gathered), overwhelm and scare away threats (using his physical appearance). It's extremely rare his fragile main body is ever out in public, his proxies do the groundwork. I was also inspired by octopuses. In propaganda, octopuses are used to represent a growing/spreading threat that's attempting to expand its control and dominance, which I thought was fitting since the media influences everything. ↳ {Headcanon ramblings + alt. versions below!:}
