#zobek

I know the second was somehow lacking

Wasn’t perfect

The Bastard man himself, Zobek.

favorite thing about them: I do feel like he pulls off the villain Death very well. Like, He's charming and genuinely in LoS1, I didn't realize until much later in the game that he was actually the third and final Lord of Shadow!

least favorite thing about them: Why did Marie have to die for you to do your thing Zobek? Huh? Why did you have to mind control Gabriel in his sleep to kill both Marie and Claudia? Huh?

favorite line: ok. I can't find the exact quote without digging through gameplay footage, but in one of the much later loading screens of LoS1, which are narrated by Zobek, he says something along the lines of, "The Prince of Darkness arrives, with Death close beside him." Which is what clued me into Zobek not being who he was supposed to be.

brOTP: the other Lords of Shadow. They were definitely drinking buddies.

OTP: Weirdly enough, I don't have one with him. I could definitely see that, if Zobek didn't try to fight Gabriel and lived post LoS2, him and Dracul would become fuck buddies of sorts.

nOTP: Again, not really anything coming to mind really.

random headcanon: Zobek went into hiding for a little while, before coming back to the Brotherhood of Light, and he was the one who spread word of Dracul amongst the villages.

unpopular opinion: He doesn't swear much, if ever. Maybe a "Shit" or "Damn" or maybe "Bastard" on bad days, but like, I think he swore like... Once in game?

song i associate with them: I'll probably come back to this part, because I genuinely don't have a song in mind.

favorite picture of them: there's something hella unsettling with this image. Like, this is Death. This is also the best image of his true form from LoS1, because he looks a little.... Goofy in game.

Death for Draculatober Day 30. (Work in progress piece.)
