server;  marilith ,  dynamis  character name; .    "friendly shadow" ,  better known as eve.
written with love and the wish to sic this freak on others, by basil ( 21 , he / they , est )

"i'd sell you for a single corn chip", speaks the mimic, and you muster a laugh like your life depends on it.the fuck even is a corn chip, anyway?

potentially sensitive content ahead.  eve is not a pretty character to deal with as their story deals with plenty of things on the gruesome side, and not to mention especially morally or ethically questionable. before continuing further, please expect mentions of violence, death, cannibalism, strong and abrasive language, weird sex?? & monster fucking. general expectations to hold when writing with me, especially involving a scene where eve may use any of their abilities, there may be graphic descriptions of   breaking bones, blood, and other gore.   if this bothers you, please alert me in advance and i will adjust. they're just a weird fucking thing, in short.

i. in general ,

i am an adult with a day job and fluctuating moods, my motivation to write may not be 100% and i also reserve the right to end a scene early if it i don't feel comfortable with it. ic =/= ooc, the thoughts and actions of my ocs are not my own and any blurred lines of the two is not tolerated, nor do i tolerate someone becoming jealous of others i write with in a possessive manner.   my time does not belong to just any one person.  

iii. explicit rp ,

unfortunately i'm kind of picky about erp and don't engage in it often, especially with people i'm not familiar. i ask that you don't approach me to set up rp with the sole intention of fucking my ocs, even as promiscuous and open about their sexuality as they are. i have pretty specific preferences that require me to at least know someone a fair bit before i let our barbie dolls scissor, sorry!
plus eve has a high chance of maiming someone mid-coitus. oops.

ii. do not interact ,

while a lot of what i rp delves into darker themes and a lot of moral ambiguity (or just straight up apprehensible), a hard line is drawn at anything relating to non-con/SA, incest, or the usual shit that makes people's heads turn in a very bad way. i will also not write with minors, be it an underaged character or their author, and   anyone under the age of 18 interacting with me in my spaces will be blocked and reported.  

iv. godmodding ,

ah yes, the staple rule in ever roleplay community: stay in your lane and don't take over someone else's oc. that's the short way of saying, when in character, only use knowledge your own character has available to them, instead of magically knowing something about MINE that they wouldn't ordinarily. like if you don't have a magical sniffer for finding voidsent? you would have no idea about eve until they hit you in the face with it and knocked you out cold.

"a real piece of work." and that's if you're trying to be nice about it. with a penchant for digging under peoples' skin (metaphorically and, literally), they enjoy doing exactly that, if just to see how someone ticks. does it land them in trouble more often than not? sure, but not as much as their attitude does. ever sharp, smart and quick witted, eve has some sort of remark for every occasion and an insult for everybody too.
of course there would be layers underneath it- they're a complex little thing, but good fucking luck to ever finding it as they're careful about the information they give up.

   height       variable
   weight       variable
   build       variable
   skin       medium w/ warm undertones
   hair color       variable, often black as pitch
   hair style       a perpetual mess
   eye color       variable, often orange
   unique features       scarred to hell and back.
   wardrobe       whore.
   miscellaneous       they're a shapeshifter :) 👍

"why so many variables?" well as stated, eve is a shapeshifter, a mimic, whatever you want to call it, and that makes them a rather vain person. their appearance fluctuates with their mood or their perception of others, adapting to the situation they're presently in- their most regular form though, is a lean xaela of average height, wild black hair, and curled ram horns. and, they are often covered in blood.

   alignment       chaotic neutral
   likes       x
   dislikes       x
   positives       acutely aware. eyes are always on you.
   negatives       lol, lmao even. where to begin.
   hobbies       what are those?

you may notice that the above section is rather bare. i don't think murder constitutes as a suitable hobby, so that was left out-- eve is someone who struggles with self purpose and identity (shocker, a shapeshifter with identity issues), and then of course there's the instinct as a voidsent no less to consume others to make more of ones' self. in the attempt at normalcy, a guest at another's house, they're trying to pick up on new things like reading (boring as hell) or painting, but it hasn't stuck.

& abilities

i. surface-level shapeshifting
ii. aetherial mimicry
iii. dream powder
iv. improvised "weapons"

eve has two methods of copying ones' appearance- surface-level shapeshifting speaks for itself, their appearance changes based on their observations of another, but can be flawed. it works in fooling the average, unwitting person, though aetherial mimicry is the much more complex, cellular level. it requires them to have ingested any amount of someone's fresh blood (fresh is important), and then they can produce a new body identical to their target. higher quantities of blood often gives them access to some memories, or even a grasp on their abilities and how to use and manipulate them. it's a disgusting, visceral process, like a spider molting from it's previous body; it leaves them covered in dark ichor for a few minutes until it rolls off of them, and only then do they become the better version of you.
dream powder is what they call a call a hallucinogenic substance, not dissimilar to fungi spores, that can travel through the air and settle on objects, people, or stick to clothes. it's most efficient when used indoors, in an enclosed space without ventilation.
It parts the veil of ones mind, drawing the blinds to allow the conscious to peer into the horrors of the subconscious. it grants the wielder, eve, control over the afflicted's subconcious mind, and enables them to force hallucinations that will confuse them in the waking world, and haunt them in their future slumbers.
improvised weapons speak for themselves. also painful, but useful in a pinch, shards of bone or extra teeth can protrude from their skin, sharp to the touch.

kill or be killed. it's a sentiment no doubt many are familiar, and for those from the void: it is the way of life. transactional, debts and grievances are repaid in kind and eve, no less, leaves it any other way- they never have.

their blight upon this world began as a humble as can be, the son of an insignificant craftsman and his lady wife. they held a modest estate in the kingdom of baron, well off enough that when he passed, his widow and child would want for little in life. or so one would hope, but when eve was only a child of three, their mother became infatuated with a strapping young man, all charm and debonair that she found so sweet. the bastard in later years would leave them with all his debts, leaving the two of them without house and home nor a penny to their name once the estate was reclaimed. eve, by then, was old enough to understand that the world is cruel; and crueller still for it to take their mother away.with nowhere else to go, they were dumped out on the street where a number of years were spent thieving, taking on the odd job; until a fortuitous turn of luck has them picked up by a holy man of the local prior where there they were given a roof over their head, and a job cleaning the halls. part of them wonders where they'd be now, sometimes; had they never left. revenge never left their mind once, never forgetting their mother's dying words, and by what divine intelligence would it be that fate should have them cross paths once again with the wretch, a whaler from the sea-- with red in their eyes and a thirst for blood, the following morning they set out to chase him to the ends of the earth should they have to. twenty months later aboard a privateer and in the middle of a rough storm, they had the bastard cornered; with the whaler's ship and theirs locked by grappling hooks thrown over the rails, the crew boarded and eve exacted their revenge. age 18 marks the beginning of a life-long career, the blood staining their hands.the return to baron was quiet, but they felt hollow. revenge wasn't enough, it was short-lived, and they were fixated on the feeling of warm blood on their hands. assimilating back into normal life was improbable, so they went back to doing what they'd always done best; keeping to the shadows to watch others, steal their valuables, but now with a side of finding a way to satiate the itch in their head that made them hunger.

you, but better. an experience everyone can relate to is how much they have changed over the course of their life, in major and minor ways, from benign things like skin condition, hair style, choice of attire - to more major things. age, personality, wealth. these things are dynamic, and truly unique.and with all things unique, there exists those who would copy it. eve is one such parasite, with a wretched envy devouring their every action. suddenly, the one thing you had that was truly unique - you - is now also theirs. so get used to sharing, or they'll ensure they're the only you around.rarity: common. it happens more than it probably should.

baron born and bred. in another time, another place, there was a lively, vibrant city. it's gone now, the only vestigial remnants of it existing in the minds of frenzied, hungry voidsent in an abyss so dark, it's no surprise most of them had chosen to forget it. memories of better times feel disgustingly bitter in the modern hell they live in.the cities of the source have this familiar air to them though, homely, but alien all the same. the brick resembles home, the culture does not. it's a flawed facsimile, unlike the shiftling, whom is flawless in their replication. there's a sort of kinship with others who hail from the city long gone though; while their memories are not always pleasant, they find themselves gravitating to any lasting memories of the shattered past.rarity: unlikely. most of us are dead.

Ancient Reptilian Brain: it's damn clear they're not from around here, be it the halcyon memories of a nation long past, their gnarly diet for vitae and skin, or their disturbing ability to make themself at home in anyones shoes. eve heralds from the void, a place where only the cold blooded survive in an economy of 'might-makes-right'. even before the contramemoria fucked everything up, it wasn't the most peachy place to grow up, but after what feels like an eternity drenched in darkness, it'll make seeing anything other than 'might-makes-right' hard.rarity: obvious. if you're smart, i guess.
