I hope you know that Dorian is gonna be so silly-coded bc now I’m accidentally gonna project lmao - 🦝

I hope you know that I will reel you in when need be.

do you have any shadowknight headcanons?

So! My second post on shadow knights! I'm not complaining, I freaking love the shadow knights-

Here's the first one: Shadow Knights

Because nothing was specified, I'm going to do both as a species and characters! I'm assuming this was for MCD: Marigold.

Shadow Knights as a species:

-Obsessive. Usually it's focused on revenge, a desire for power, just pure blood lust, and so on. But it affects each person differently, and they all can obsess over separate things. It is controllable and containable. Some shadow knights view letting your obsession take hold of you as weak, while others see it as the only way to live.

-Their eyes are reflective, like an animals. This is both in and out of their shadow knight form.

-Switching between forms is horribly painful, but they usually don't notice, as they are usually blinded by emotion to even process it. The ones in the nether stay in one form all the time, so they never even realize. The more control over when you transform, the more you realize how painful it is.

-Intense sense up grade. Increased hearing, sense of smell, touch, sight, all of it. It's part of the reason Laurance's sight was so easy to restore(even though it wasn't fully fixed). It's important to note that it's even better in shadow knight form.

-The sword and armor does actually just appear on them in that form, and it's impossible to take off. They can put the sword in its sheath, but that's the extent of it.

-Animals and shadow knights usually aren't the best mix, but it depends. Funnily enough, most domestic animals respond well to them. All wild animals, on the other hand... not so much.

-Not a single shadow knight was ever pure of heart. Someone with a pure heart cannot be turned.

Shadow knight character things:

-Gene has been messing with shadow knight recruit memories to make them more willing. For whatever reason(lore reasons I'll get to later), it wouldn't work on Laurance.

-Part of Sasha wanted Aphria to never find out about her being... y'know, dead, so she could live a peaceful life in Phoenix Drop.

-Zenix genuinely cared for Dorian and Aphria, but ended up deeming connections like that weak.

-Zenix never got to know that Dorian wasn't Garroth's real name.

-Gene's obsession is vengeance. Sasha is worried what he'll do with himself once he achieves it...

-Sasha's obession is simply living as she wants, however she wants. It used to be revenge, but she's moved past that.

-Zenix's obsession is power. He'll do anything for it.

-Vylad has disconnected himself from emotion so much that he doesn't have an obsession.

-Laurance refuses to admit he has one, because he isn't a full shadow knight. In truth, it's his humanity, and who is connected to that. His friends, family, and loved ones. What keeps him sane. That's what he'll lose his mind over. Funny, isn't it?

i have a secret :o

Oh??

please share-

I’m blaming you.

Sometimes it’s important to know that not everything is as it seems.

Aphria will never see this. She doesn’t need to. However, my dearest reader, that does not mean that I will withhold this information from you.

You see, miles away, as Garroth Dorian holds baby Levin, he starts to cry.

There’s seemingly no reason to do so. To an outside observer, and to Garroth Dorian himself, it was worthless, these tears. They meant nothing. Held nothing. It made him ashamed of being so emotional for a reason so unknown.

Yet, I cannot even begin to fathom the feeling he is and will be experiencing for the rest of this story. How devastating it must be to become a father and never realize that the child you are holding and the mother you don’t even remember were supposed to be such big parts of your life.

In another world, this story could have gone differently. Zenix could’ve been stopped and the Lord replaced with a reluctant Garroth Dorian who’s crime was loving a married woman who would have been pushing him to the path of Lord. In another world, he would have witnessed all of Levin’s firsts. He would have done everything he could to keep his wife and son happy.

But this is not that world. In this world, all Garroth Dorian will have is that absent, forgetful, guilty feeling. As if he’s missing something.

I hope this works ;-;

Wrote this instead of doing homework as I’m waiting for my family lol - 🦝

You have access to the doc. I literally need you to add this into the story when the time comes.

Who dissociates though all the lore? - 🦝

Kanna, probably. She’s just… often wrapped up in her imagination, baking, and dolls, and often misses big things happening around her.

Which is odd considering she has been involved with it. It’s kind of like… like the negative things just don’t stick….

Who gives the ending of Mama’s Boy by Dominic Fike??? It’s been on my mind forever ;-; - 🦝

I responded to the wrong thing earlier, sorry-

Uh. Any of the Ro’Meave kids. Just because their mom is/was present in their lives, though she was unable to actually do any good for them past some love.

This also works for Travis, but his mom is dead now so…
