PLAYER INFORMATION

✘ Name: Danielle
✘ Age: 30
✘ Contact: ddsapphire | danielle#6871
✘ Character(s) currently in game: Mary (withsadness), Belladonna (whichiest)
✘ Favorite horror tropes/events: I really couldn't pick! I love everything from horror comedy to body horror. I enjoy writing bloody messes and psychological meltdowns. For this character, I plan on leaning more into demonic themes and physical horror since he has pretty big hang-ups about his appearance as it is--and has generally been trying to deal with eldritch entities and cultists on the day-to-day.

✘ Age: 20
✘ History: here
✘ Personality:

You're assigned a group project. What role do you end up taking?

Well, I'd like to divide the work equally among all of us. I'm pretty comfortable with anything, so research or design or presentation is all fine with me. I don't really consider myself to be much of a leader, so I'd rather not be the one who spearheads everything, but I try and be vocal with my thoughts and opinions. I'd like to make sure that nobody feels left out or nobody gets stuck with all of the assignment, either. That said, if that means I end up being the group leader because nobody else is willing to step up, or I'm nominated into the role, that's fine too. As long as we're all communicating, that's what's most important.

You have the chance to anonymously send a letter to someone who's wronged you in the past. What does it say?

I'd rather not. I mean, I just don't feel like communicating with those people would really amount to anything. The best way to heal from all of this is to just try and move on with my life as best as I can. But if I had to, I guess, it would probably say something along the lines of...

I don't know who you are or why you did this, but your actions have had consequences that expand way beyond myself and even my family. Whatever you hoped to accomplish by hurting us has done so much more damage than I think can really be put into words. And for what? I'm still here, I'm still doing everything that I can to move on. In the end, you're the one who failed.

Or...yeah. I guess that's about right. I don't know, I try not to think too much about it. Like I said, that kind of anger just makes it harder to live my life. What's done is done. What you do with your hurt is up to you regardless of the circumstances.

Someone you admire very much has just done something you find reprehensible. How do you deal with the situation?

I'd like to talk with them about it to understand why they did it. I like to think I'm a pretty good judge of character, so if I admire someone, I don't think they'd do something that awful without good reason. Besides...I'd be a hypocrite to condemn someone. I've done reprehensible things. I want people to understand why. That is, I mean...if I had to admit to them at all. Maybe it's fair that everyone knows, but selfishly, I'd rather keep the past to myself. If someone else wanted to do the same, it's really not up to me to force them to speak.

If you could achieve all your goals right now, what would your life look like?

Ha...I don't think achieving my goals could do much to fix how far off track my life's gotten. Even if everything went right, I think I'd be feeling pretty alone...but maybe I'd at least have a friend or two left to share the rest of my life with. Honestly? I don't know if that's enough for me to live with myself.

Okay, well, let me dial things back a little bit for the sake of the question. Assuming things weren't already standing where they were, if I could have everything? I'd just want a peaceful life that I could share with the people I care most about. Maybe make more music for a living, or do something that could help and support others. I've kind of missed out on the whole "normal, boring" kind of life, so...really, that's all I want. Sorry if it's kind of a lame answer.

Someone tells you all your flaws. What did they tell you, and are they right or wrong?

They're probably right, though maybe misunderstanding. I'm not a bad person, even if I've done bad things. I know what I've done and I'm not here to deny those accusations. If I'm being honest, I'm not even so sure that I can defend myself, or if I deserve to...but if they're wrong about me, thinking that I'm evil or sick in the head, I'd like a chance to explain. I'm not those things. I'm depressed, I'm not a great son, I definitely don't mind my own business either. But I try to do the right thing whenever I can and stick up for others, even if from the outside looking in I look like the villain.

Still, to say that I'm self-pitying and full of regrets...yeah, that's true. I'd do it all over again the same way, but I'd still hate myself for it.

✘ Type: penumbral
✘ Powers:

Power 1: body contortion - as if his bones are made out of putty, he's able to squish and squash his form. While he can't change into specific other creatures or his overall body mass, he can be pulled and stretched out into alternate shapes like some kind of elastic cartoon.
Power 2: unhinging slit mouth - his mouth can split open all the way down his neck and chest, unhinging to devour much wider creatures. Naturally, there are plenty of extra teeth and much more length to his tongue ready and waiting should he choose to do use this.
Power 3: sound distortion - can alter and amplify sound waves to cause headaches, nausea, dizziness, or just general feelings of discomfort and unease. Needs sounds that are already fairly loud or prominent to do this.

✘ Inventory: bloody kitchen knife, (depowered) demon-slaying guitar
✘ Sample: TDM Thread and Bakerstreet Meme Threads
