Woke up on the wrong side of reality and there's a madness that's just coursing right through me ✘ P L A Y E R; Name: Zero Pronouns: They/them Timezone: PST Contact: PM, arrpee, zero#8942 @ discord Permissions/Opt-Out: Here ✘ B A S I C S; Name: Colin Age: 6 months (physically 29) Gender: Male Species: Accidentally sentient creation Date of Birth: ???? Date of Arrival: March 18th, 2018 Housing: Cabin 106 Partner: Erik Stevens Inbox: N/A Deaths: N/A ✘ I N V E N T O R Y; (1) Appearance Modifier: Fixed to his wrist (20) Facemasks: Surgical and disposable (1) Comm Device: Capable of video/audio transmissions (1) Wallet: Contains a map (2) Yellow Gemstones: Worth 125 credits each ✘ B O D Y; physical looks, traits, style of dress. Colin's appearance modifier affords him a more acceptable physical appearance for the purposes of navigating public places. This appearance is of a twenty-nine or thirty-ish adult human male with pale skin and pale brown hair, though the vivid amber eyes might give away that something about him is a little bit off. He's rather short, only about five-foot-four, and his sense of fashion is simple. His wardrobe is comprised of simplicities: a t-shirt, a pair of jeans, a hoodie, all looking thoroughly secondhand and slightly overlarge. Colin's real appearance beneath the inputted hard-light projection is far more monstrous. His hair is an untidy ash-blonde mop, and his skin is mottled with crudely stitched-together patches of skin. His internal organs are just about as sloppily patched together as the rest of him, and he doesn't bleed in the typical sense as a result. But by far the most arresting aspect is his face, as he has two eyes on his left side to contrast the ordinary number on his right, and the skin over the left half of his mouth has been stretched back to perpetually expose his vast selection of wickedly curved, yellowed teeth. A visual representation of this can be found here. In semi-rare cases, Colin may succumb to certain proclivities buried in his soul. In that case, a thick, oily black ooze will start spilling out between the seams on his skin, flowing out in smokelike plumes peppered with clusters of violet eyes. A visual representation of this can be found here. ✘ M I N D; psyche, personality, general mentality. Despite Colin's appearance, he was created fairly recently, and thus is only something like six months old. As a result, he remains on a learning curve in terms of personal maturity. He has the adaptive and intuitive learning of an adult, but the lack of worldly experience of a child mixed with the reckless impulsivity of one. His status as an anomaly in all things has been routinely impressed upon him enough for the sense of isolation to be almost unbearable. The sense of utter shame over his origins, obscure as they are to him, and the fact that his soul is the aberrant wreck that it is has left him with a sense of displacement over where he belongs in this or any world. He is not a proper life form and more or less achieved sentience completely by accident. The world has no place for him, and he is nowhere near ready to set about defining one for himself. Accompanying that bitter loneliness is an innate desperation for anything that Colin can interpret as love, acceptance, or validation. His standards for what counts as friendship are, consequently, very low, as well as his capacity to detect when he is being lied to or directly manipulated. He is so earnest in his desire to form connections in the absence of having been allowed them naturally that he can and will gravitate to anyone who gives him the time of day, no matter why they might be doing so. ✘ S K I L L S; talents, powers, magics. ◊ HOLLOW — Colin, not being a proper Hollow, does not get quite the same amount of perks that they do, but he's not wholly bereft, either. He can stay awake for up to seventy-two hours before he needs to get sleep, and has strength and stamina that roughly amounts to twice that of an ordinary human. ◊ ENDURANCE — Hollows are by nature quite sturdy, but Colin is a special sort in his anomalous nature. As he's pieced together from other people's bodies, he's capable of withstanding tremendous physical punishment, up to and including the removal of most of the pieces of his body that don't directly tap into his nervous system, without dying. Granted, he'd then have to figure out how to reattach all the missing parts of himself, but he would still be alive to do so. ◊ OMNIVORE — As Colin's internal organs are configured bizarrely and in geometrically unwise tangles to begin with, there's not much he can do to thoroughly wreck that part of himself even further. As a result, he can eat and drink almost anything he can fit into his mouth and come away feeling a bit ill, but otherwise fine. ◊ ANOMALY — The seeds of Anomaly's soul spliced in with Colin's will occasionally attempt to seize control while Colin himself is out of commission, usually if he's sufficiently stunned or knocked unconscious. While Colin's strength/endurance will remain roughly the same, this will usually be paired with a ruthless, bluntly destructive impulse and an unshakable need to follow through on it. In short, this state can only be halted by incapacitating Colin. ✘ M E D I C A L; what lies beneath. ◊ PATCHWORKED — As Colin is comprised of pieces of other people's dead bodies, his medical equilibrium is virtually nonexistent. His organs are a wreck. His physiology is utterly random. There is very little rhyme and reason to how he was put together, and he now mostly stays together by virtue of being imbued with enough soul-force to allow for some sense of cohesiveness where none might otherwise exist. He has a nominal heart that nominally beats, but it doesn't pump blood so much as it does the blackish sludge that increases in amount when Anomaly tries to seize control. In essence, Colin's interior matches his exterior; just as crudely stitched together, and just as jumbled. ✘
