Pale_Enchantress Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 My character backstories don't really fit on the in game ID card. I am making this so those I play with may see them. As a content warning there are some potentially disturbing things mentioned in my character backgrounds but nothing is described in detail. Most of these were view-able in original CoX and if I thought I was violating any rules I wouldn't post here. I just wanted to be extra polite and mention. Backstory One: The Venus Illegitima The abandoned wooden shacks that rotted in the most decrepit area of the port's shanties were shunned even by the beggars. The liquid filth was home to a wide variety of vermin and pests. The few taverns and porters that did business in the area paid no mind to disposing of their trash and refuse among what was left of the buildings. Some people however had no choice but to live in them. As much as the homeless needed the charity of others they were quick to take from each other if they could. One man and woman could not exist among the other people. They were both blind and deaf or nearly so. On their own they could find foul sustenance among what others discarded and in the insects that nested. They stayed hidden to avoid being victimized. The one time they knew they had to find another was when the female was ready to give birth. It was no happy occasion to have another mouth to feed, and yet the pair were too fearful of others to allow their child in any one else's hands. Unlike his parents the child was quite canny and in full possession of his visual and auditory senses. His screams went unheard as pests and vermin crawled over and bit at him inside the lightless box in which he existed. He crawled in filth, excrement, and squalor. His first words were things said to beg of others. He would often to go the other parts of town to prostrate himself before others hoping to evoke enough sympathy to acquire from strangers what he could not from his parents. Earp had been what his parents called him. It wasn't even so much a name as it was a sound that was easy for them to make. He was a cute baby that despite being underfed grew into a beautiful boy a pediastric relationship with a rich became his salvation. Being the sexual pet of a rich old man could hardly be considered a good thing, but the warped feelings were the closest thing the unfortunate boy would ever have to being cared for. In his patrons household he became a sponge for knowledge. He was given an education, find clothes, and enough food to never be hungry. In gratitude he shared his body with his mentor. Earp even became friends with his masters children and was often paraded at gatherings for his unconventional wit and exotic beauty. Years of contentment, if not happiness, passed until foreign troubles called his patron away. The mistress of the house would not let him stay anywhere on the property and so Earp went back to the streets and stayed once more in the light less squalor his parents did. In his extreme depression he didn't even see the diseased condition his parents flesh was in. He contracted their leprosy and his beautiful body and face putrefied. In time he was forced to a leper colony. His face and genitals withered, ruptured and blackened. The only parts of him that anyone had ever valued, was destroyed before his eyes. His bitterness and loss made him welcome death. He exhaled his last labored breath alone and unwanted; full of hatred for all of creation. After his death the wailing spirit of the boy was taken by Tartarus, who gave him the name Alloces. He existed as a curiosity and bound slave. It took centuries but eventually the unthinkable happened: Tartarus was killed. With unrestricted access to the gods vault Alloces learned a great deal of magic, and even greater were his powers of biomanipulation. His short life taught him that beauty mattered above all and crafted for himself an uneartly beautiful androgynous body made from the most beautiful women in the world, all murdered by him to make himself even more beautiful. Now thousands of women have died and with each his body becomes a little better even on a sub cellular level. He also uses his fleshcrafting to create great monsters to serve him. He has no trouble using or hurting anyone because in his mind they would all abandon him to rot away again if he were not the fairest of them all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
