𝐈 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃 𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐄𝐀𝐓 𝐘𝐎𝐔 ▣ death

DEATH

Characters can and likely will die, given the content of the game. Death will last for a week, give or take according to player comfort, wherein a ritual will occur, of casting a stone with your character's name into Saltburnt's lake. After that week, your character will have a Revival, where they crawl out from their grave, not human, and affected by one of the supernatural maladies listed below.

Imagine the Revival as zombie-like in nature. Your character rises, not completely sentient but enslaved to their impulses — in short, a monster as detailed by the supernatural options below. Your character will not be themselves, instead overrun by feral intentions that get worse and worse as time goes on.

Your body tells you the only solution is to have someone find your name stone and recollect it from the lake, whereupon the dead character will revert back mostly to normal, with lingering side effects of their death and transformation. Multiple deaths will result in more side effects, and continuing monstrosities bleeding into their normal life. This entry's intended purpose is assigning lasting effects from your character's death, which will permanently effect them, and get worse with every death. See the example in the comments for reference.

VAMPIRE

you are HUNGRY, there isn’t anything you won’t stuff in your mouth. there is a gnawing, unquenchable emptiness inside you that you feel compelled to fill however you can. eating, sex, and violence are all vices you indulge in, though it all comes back to one thing — blood. you want it, and you'll do whatever it takes to have it. you grow long fangs and a dislocatable jaw.

WEREWOLF

you are FERAL, overrun and overworked by your own emotions, you run rampaging, not recognizing anyone you cross paths with. you hunger for blood and suffering. you only feel relief when you destroy something, and even then it only lasts as long as it takes to rip the painting, tear the clothes, bleed the person. you grow strong, brutal looking claws.

GHOST

you are an ILLUSIONIST, playfully mischievous in death, keen to humiliate anyone you see. you are invisible or partly visible, and therefore unburdened by consequence. you want to play tricks on everyone you cross paths with, and lacking your own physical body, might possess the body of someone you know in order to be worse damage.

WITCH

you are VENGEFUL, there is a calculated kind of menace to you. you are aware and you are precise, inflicting back the damage you think is deserved. rituals, spells, hexes and curses are all left up to your own devices. your fingers grow inky black and sharp the more revenge you doll out, the veins against your eyes pulsing black like you darkest emotions.

ANGEL

you are UNFORGIVING, driven by an obsessive need for worship. you seek sacrifices and offerings made in your name, and punish your blasphemers and non-believers with purifying flame for the trespass of their sins against you. you sprout feathery wings from your back, and your holy aura sears the eyes of anyone who dares look at you for too long.

DEMON

you are INSATIABLE, a servant to your most wicked of urges. you find pleasure in sowing seeds of temptation, your pheromones and silver-tongue encouraging others to embrace their worst vices, from greed to pride to wrath. your favorite, however, is lust - you haunt the wet dreams of your victims until their lives revolve around you. your victims become empty thralls, bewitched by your spiraling horns and fork-tongued charm.

SELKIE

you are LONELY, unable to live outside of bodies of water for long, but your longing for companionship draws you to find a partner. your voice casts a trance on anyone who lacks the will to resist, like a beautiful song. you covet your dearest love so much that you can’t help yourself - you’ll peel off their skin just to be closer to them, and drown them in the lake if they ever try to leave you. you grow gills and shiny scales that bloom into a tail in the water.

CHANGELING

you are DECEITFUL, down to the very nature of your appearance. you can take many, and any form to play your tricks, but your favorite? you like to become a person’s most beloved, replacing their role in your victim’s life. you entertain yourself with destroying their relationships, and tricking them into magical bargains that benefit you alone. in your true form, you grow animal or plant features.

DEATH SUBMISSION

FAQ

→ CAN I HAVE DIFFERENT DEATHS WITH DIFFERENT SUPERNATURAL EFFECTS?

Yes! If you're familiar, consider it like dual-classing in DND — you can have a death in Vampire and Werewolf, and will receive two separate permanent effects. Alternatively, you can stick to one supernatural effect, and further the severity of it.

→ THE GAME HAS BEEN OPEN FOR A FEW MONTHS AND MY CHARACTER HAS ALREADY DIED MULTIPLE TIMES.

You can ignore this for now and submit in their next death instead — alternatively you can submit a death in hindsight and receive a cursed effect by it. For continuity reasons, please only submit one death in hindsight, and keep up the effect with any further deaths as they come along.

→ I DIDN'T LIKE THE CONSEQUENCE I RECEIVED

That's okay! You can request a change, but you will be stuck with the outcome you receive on the second go around.

→ HOW LONG CAN MY CHARACTER BE FUNCTIONAL BEFORE NEEDING TO FIND THEIR STONE?

Anything longer than a few days will have them completely feral, zombie-like. A week is the absolute maximum.

→ WHAT IF MY CHARACTER IS TECHNICALLY DEAD AND/OR UNKILLABLE?

If you're interested in the death mechanic, we can find a way to kill them! Nothing is totally dead or completely unkillable in Saltburnt.

hello mods, i have a q!

so, my character is already dead and a ghost ... i know, i'm so extremely difficult sobs but how would this mechanic thus affect my character? just curious to see if there's a way that edwin can still acquire some of these side effects despite his state of existence.

thank you!

Hi! No worries, this is a great question.

To make it simple (ish...), since we decided Edwin's ghostly existence is a little strange within the walls of Saltburnt (i.e. having some kind of physical presence he doesn't ordinarily have), it is possible to physically hurt him, and thus, for him to die. Essentially, even though it might not work in his canon, the rules are bendy in game towards what makes the most sense for you. Maybe Edwin can only be hurt by things not entirely of the natural world, or maybe Edwin can only be hurt when he's occupying a more physical body. It's up to you, and the rules can be as flexible as you like them.

When/if it comes to establishing some permanent effect postmortem, we can talk back and forth about something that makes sense for him. Basically, where there's a will there's a way, and if you're interested in playing with the death mechanic, we'll find a way to make it work. Hope this helps, but feel free to ask any follow up questions for clarity!

Hi mods! This is less a question and more me repeating back the death mechanics to you to be sure I understand them. Is this more or less it?

1. YOU HAVE DIED
2. After a week or thereabouts, throw this rock into the lake!
3. YOU HAVE COME BACK WRONG, aka, character exhibits one or all of the traits in their chosen monster description.
4. "Fuck get the rock back!"
5. Character reverts to normal, PLUS one permanent death effect.

Correct.

once resurrected, will characters find their bodies physically healed of whatever it was that killed them/would there be scars etc? or is it a 'choose your own adventure' type detail? 💖

Up to player choice! Whatever you like is good with us.

amazing, ty!

Character Name: Rosie Balfour
Character Journal:

saltburnmods
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Attacked and eaten by the Wolfman
Supernatural Effect: Werewolf
Preferred Lasting Effect: I'd like a physical effect for Rosie, please!

Following Rosie's resurrection, once a month she faces a stomach curling tooth pain that renders her incapable of eating for a short time. In a mirror, she will see her teeth being pushed out of her gums — not by fangs, but by molars of a similar size, shape, and color to the ones she already possesses. It's bloody and extremely painful, but after shedding her old teeth the new ones work just as well as the others always did.

Character Name: Rosie Balfour
Character Journal:

saltburnmods
Death Number: 2
Supernatural Effect: Werewolf
Context of Death: After going feral on the full moon, she got put down out of necessity and public safety.

Following Rosie's second resurrection, she'll notice that while the pain of her teeth neither increases nor decreases, the kind of tooth that grows in is decidedly different. Sharp enough to cut a lip, Rosie's back teeth are still small enough to go mostly unnoticed, if not for anyone who might be tonguing her.

Death Number: 3
Context of Death: Some vampires in this house are very thirsty? Good grief.
Supernatural Effect: Vampire
Preferred Effect: Could I have a psychological effect for this one?

About once a month, on no particular schedule, when Rosie is dead asleep she'll awaken suddenly to the sound of a blood curdling scream. Try as she might, she can't seem to find the source of it, and although she's sure she heard it, anyone else she converses with has no idea what she's talking about.

Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Killed fighting David during the werewolf allegations (not werewolf related).
Supernatural Effect: Demon
Preferred Effect: Leaning towards psychological but literally do your worst, it would be funny.

You no longer feel comfortable in your skin. Once a month, you become paranoidly convinced your body is undergoing a metamorphosis. You peel and pick at your skin until it sheds, revealing a layer of agitated pink skin beneath. Where others see flesh scraped raw, you are convinced you see hard, bumpy scales. You are unable to resist the compulsion to eat your shed skin, which seems to soothe your anxiety, if only for a couple hours.

homosexuals
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Revenge killing/bday present for Danny Johnson
Supernatural Effect: Demon
Preferred Effect: Psychological pls and ty ♥

Engaging in random acts of sexual intimacy now leaves you in a state of mental terror. Once a month with no warning of who it might happen with, you suffer from vivid hallucinations of key people from your past, many of whom have hurt you or you have hurt yourself, when you try to get sexually close to someone.

Character Name: paul atreides
Character Journal:

dictator
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: during the werewolf game
Supernatural Effect: demon
Preferred Effect: physical. alina brought him back to life using merzost — it effected him by staining his fingertips white, with a kind of smoky trailing leading up to the palms of his hand. it also glows faintly, as a remnant of alina's sun powers.

Following Alina's usage of merzost, the tips of Paul's fingers bleach bone white permanently. Additionally, the texture of the skin changes, and more closely resembles marble, cold and unfeeling. He has no control over when he glows or not, and the intensity of the brightness varies from dull to flashlight, though there's no pain or heat associated with the light.

Character Name: Embry Moore
Character Journal:

hymen
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Killed by Danny Johnson in the chapel with a knife.
Supernatural Effect: Werewolf
Preferred Effect: Leaning toward psychological but don't mind physical, just something that puts him in Situations.

You now suffer from somnambulism. Once a month, you sleepwalk throughout the manor and engage in various activities, ranging from petty theft to sexual situations, all with little to no conscious awareness, and therefore little to no consent. You wake in varying states of danger, intimacy, undress, etc., and only fragments of your memories return to you.

Character Name: Erik Lehnsherr
Character Journal:

metalkinetic
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Murdered by Jem Walker during werewolf
Supernatural Effect: Witch
Preferred Effect: As part of his resurrection, Erik now has a soulbond with Pierce Strickland that impacts the sharing of emotions, and him feeling the physical effects of Pierce's pain (since he can't); being away from Pierce too long encourages his body to decompose again. Any further fun witch-like effects are welcome.

Upon resurrection, Erik now has a soulbond with Pierce. He shares Pierce's emotions, feels the physical effects of Pierce's pain, and being away from Pierce for too long makes his body decompose like a corpse again. Additionally, once a month Erik's vision goes blurry for a full 24hrs — anyone looking at him will see branching veins of black along his sclera, just making a prickly appearance on the corners of his eyes.

Character Name: Erik Lehnsherr
Character Journal:

metalkinetic
Death Number: 2
Context of Death: Turned into a Revenant during the February event, mercy killed.
Supernatural Effect: Werewolf
Preferred Effect: Something that taps in to his dormant anger issues and rage against humans in general, warring with the peace he has found with Charles here (especially since his death was kind of violent as well) would be cool!

For a maximum of one week post-revival, ERIK will be a WEREWOLF. Rage becomes his natural state, an itch inside of his body that’s only satisfied by destruction. Long canines pierce through his gums, and his fingernails sharpen to clawed points, eager to rip and rend apart whatever is in his path. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his lust for violence. However —

Upon full resurrection, Erik’s anger lingers under the surface. Once per month, following no discernible pattern, the smallest flare of his temper sets him off into a 24-hour period of rage. His skin becomes desensitized to all touch, the metal alloys in his bones hardening his flesh until he is as impenetrable as steel; he becomes mindless and lost to his violent impulses, doling out his brand of “justice” on any who try to stop him. After a period of 24 hours, Erik returns to normal, with full memory of the destruction he caused the day prior.

Please leave a comment if this death mechanic is acceptable to you, or if you'd like a different one. Keep in mind, you can only request another death mechanic once, and will be stuck with whatever comes next. Thank you!

This is perfect, thank you mods!

Character Name: parisa kamali
Character Journal:

multiverse
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: killed in the werewolf game.
Supernatural Effect: vampire
Preferred Effect: no preference! anything is good.

Once a month Parisa will feel a sharp pain in her gums as fangs push out and grow in her mouth. She will be overcome with an intense desire to eat raw flesh — human or animal, it doesn’t matter, as long as it’s raw and relatively fresh (nothing frozen). Once she’s satisfied her hunger, the fangs will withdraw back into her gums, and she’ll be overwhelmed with nausea, spending the next three hours purging everything she just ate.

Character Name: jacaerys velaryon
Character Journal:

vermax
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: killed by alia in the werewolf game
Supernatural Effect: demon
Preferred Effect: physical. during the game, jace was resurrected by alina starkov using merzost — this resulted in the fingertips on both his hands being darkened, as if dipped in black ink. the effect fades out to mid-palm and the skin is cold to the touch. this did not give jace any ounce of alina's powers.

Upon resurrection, Jacaerys finds his fingertips permanently stained black, leading up into his fingers as if on a smoke trail. His fingertips are cold to the touch, drained completely of heat. Additionally, once a month, when Jace touches something he stains it entirely black — be it a cup, a shirt, or a sandwich he's eating. It doesn't change the object in any other way.

Character Name: jacaerys velaryon
Character Journal:

vermax
Death Number: 2
Context of Death: killed by danny johnson as red herring during the werewolf game
Supernatural Effect: angel
Preferred Effect: physical preferred but anything is good ♥

Once per month, seemingly at random, Jace’s skin will be afflicted by the same cold, clammy sensation of being submerged in water. He is struck by the sensation of feeling damp, or covered in a thin layer of water, and begins to notice what looks like small, beaded ink droplets forming on his skin. If touched, these droplets feel inexplicably like thick sludge in texture.

Character Name: Matt Jamison
Character Journal:

semicharmed
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Killed by Pierce Strickland for snitching. Snitch witches get stitches. :/
Supernatural Effect: Angel
Preferred Effect: Psychological please; I'd prefer nothing that causes permanent interference to his spellcasting (YET).

Edited 2024-11-02 16:26 (UTC)

Once a month, Matt has a dream where he is convinced a higher being is talking to him. God, the Devil, angels, or saints, he is convinced someone is speaking to him, through him, and demanding he react in one of the following ways: self-inflicted punishment via sexual acts, spreading the word of the deity, or reading holy tomes from various religions.

Thank you bless you mods 😇😇😇

whorish
Death Number: technically his, like, 5th but this is his first time being revived by the house vs self-rezzing
Context of Death: died after consuming john gaius' heart
Supernatural Effect: witch?? is prob the closest to necromancer
Preferred Effect: preferably physical and sth to tie into/give similar vibes as the locked tomb's necromancy abilities/fuckery to tie back to his cause of death (eating john 😔) but i'd also be game for psychological!

In the wake of his resurrection, Danny feels an odd awareness come over him, specifically in regards to his body, and specifically in regards to his blood-filled veins. Danny gains control of his vascular system and can systematically pull it out from his body to form objects or constructs from his veins, neither bigger than the size of a house cat. The objects are as strong as steel, and the constructs will follow simple, one word commands. Whatever part of himself Danny pulls the veins from (i.e. his arm, his leg) becomes deadened and useless for anywhere from one day to one week. The constructs last 24 hours, or until Danny dispels them, wherein a big puddle of blood and viscera will remain in the place they once occupied.

Character Name: Alicent Hightower
Character Journal:

unapparent
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Krampus goring :(
Supernatural Effect: Vampire
Preferred Effect: anything that drives her to interact with others in new and/or horrifying ways!

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Alicent will be a VAMPIRE. Sunlight repels her, garlic offends her, and most importantly her elongated fangs feel inclined to sink into flesh and drain her victims completely. During this week, she feels a calling towards the lake, to regain her stone under a thick layer of ice. She knows, in the dregs of her consciousness, that this will take the hunger away. However —

Upon a full resurrection, Alicent will find her strong, negative emotions have unforeseen consequences. Anger, sorrow, guilt, distrust — whatever it is, whenever Alicent feels strongly enough, she blacks out for a period of 1 hour total. During this blackout, she is set on destroying whatever is in her path, regardless of the damage it does to her or someone else. Anyone observing her during this time will see her eyes replaced by a smoldering fire, and indeed fires seem to pop up randomly around her, catching something flammable. They are normal flames, easily put out. When Alicent comes to, she'll remember nothing of the previous hour (including anything she said or did) but the scent of brimstone in her nostrils.

delicious!!! thank you ♥

Character Name: Bucky Barnes
Character Journal:

restored
Death Number: 1 (for Saltburnt at least)
Context of Death: Lovingly gutted by Krampus. Happy holidays!
Supernatural Effect: Witch
Preferred Effect: Do I have to pick? I'm here for anything horrific bc he deserves it. Only hard no's are anything involving 8-legged assholes, naturally.

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Bucky will be a WITCH. Curses and hexes brew at his fingertips with the ill-intent of inflicting revenge. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his lust for vengeance. However —

Upon a full resurrection, Bucky remains haunted. Whenever he falls asleep, his subconscious manifests tangible, ghostly projections of the fear and traumas he harbors. These projections roam the halls of the estate, causing poltergeist-esque chaos and terrorizing whoever is unfortunate enough to cross their paths, all while Bucky remains unaware and unconscious. These projections occur once per month, for however long Bucky rests.

Character Name: Bucky Barnes
Character Journal:

restored
Death Number: 2
Context of Death: Offed himself after being bitten by a revenant
Supernatural Effect: Vampire! Let's hit the full TVD trifecta.
Preferred Effect: Have at it. Free rein, as always.

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Bucky will be a VAMPIRE. Sunlight repels him, garlic offends him, and most importantly his elongated fangs feel inclined to sink into flesh and drain his victims completely. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, that this will take the hunger away. However —

Upon full resurrection, once a month following no discernable pattern, Bucky experiences extreme paranoia. While there is no notable source of the fear or trigger for it, Bucky finds the only to temper his paranoia is to seek bodily comfort from the first person he sees once it starts. If he doesn't, the paranoia will intensify, gradually driving him to the brink of insanity.

nishtha
Death Number: #1
Context of Death: Killed by his canon illness/poisoning when he lost his vampire powers during February's event.
Supernatural Effect: Selkie
Preferred Effect: Physical effects preferred! Some kind of sexual side effect might be neat. He's canonically got some neat narrative ties to rivers so something something fresh water vibes something maybe. 👀

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Armand will be a SELKIE. Water attracts him like a second home, a home he wants nothing more than to share with those around him. Gills sprout from his neck, scales outlining the peaks of his body. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his yawning loneliness. However —

Upon full resurrection, once a month following no discernible pattern, Armand’s body rapidly decays after experiencing an orgasm, forcing him back to his poisoned state prior to his transformation into vampirism. Armand has to immediately feed again to regain his strength, or risk succumbing to the effects of his illness.

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Zephir will be a VAMPIRE. Sunlight repels him, garlic offends him, and most importantly his elongated fangs feel inclined to sink into flesh and drain his victims completely. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, that this will take the hunger away. However —

Upon full resurrection, Zephir will find that once a month, though following no discernible pattern, he is struck with a debilitating affliction that causes thorny, husked out plant-life to take root inside of his body. The onset of this sickness causes him extreme pain as the decayed plants push themselves upwards through his throat, mouth, and nose, the thorns causing his flesh to tear, and he will spend the next 2-4 hours purging. After, the thorns will begin to wither and turn to dust, and the sickness will pass.

Gills sprout from his neck, scales outlining the peaks of his body. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his yawning loneliness. However —

Once per month he heals someone, for a period of 24 hours, he temporarily becomes unhealthily attached to that person, and starts prioritizing their needs over his own to an obsessive degree, where he could potentially endanger himself under the presumption of their benefit. They consume his every thought, to the point he gets overprotective and controlling over their every movement. After a day, he goes back to normal, with hazy memories of the day prior.

Death Number: #1
Context of Death: Turned into a Revenant and died when everything was fixed.
Supernatural Effect: Witch
Preferred Effect: Physical preferred, maybe some kind of Shadow Druid vibe or something that might connect to his player plot in March .

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Halsin will be a WITCH. Curses and hexes brew at his fingertips with the ill-intent of inflicting revenge. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his lust for vengeance. However —

Once a month when Halsin attempts to use Wild Shape it goes inexplicably and unpredictably wrong. Instead of becoming whatever creature he aimed for, he instead becomes a shadowy, corrupted version of that particular beast, losing control over its instincts and defaulting to the natural behaviors of the beast. Examples might include an owlbear, who immediately attacks, or a bunny, who scurries away. Once his transformation wears off, he’ll be back to normal with a full recollection of everything he got up to.

During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, that this will take the hunger away. However —

Upon full resurrection, Ash will find when he experiences high levels of physical, mental, or emotional stress, a sharp, piercing pain will press at his eyes, as if something is trying to escape them. If he tries to cry, the chance of tears will be slim. Instead, red rose petals will fall from his eyes, the pain ceaseless until the petals are expelled. The petals themselves excrete an unidentified toxin that causes temporary aches and fevers when touched by others. Prolonged contact or ingestion will worsen the illness.

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Iggy will be a SELKIE. Water attracts him like a second home, a home he wants nothing more than to share with those around him. Gills sprout from his neck, scales outlining the peaks of his body. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his yawning loneliness. However —

Upon full resurrection, once a month following no discernable pattern, ink appears in dark, swirling patterns across his skin, each time starting in varying places on his body. These inky marks are painful to the touch, and no amount of drugs or alcohol will numb the sensation. The marks do not cause harm to others when touched, but Iggy will find that they slowly spread the more contact he engages in. The marks fade after 12 hours.

During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, that this will take the hunger away. However —

Upon full resurrection, Hao will find that once a month, though following no discernable pattern, several generations of concentrated bloodlust from his ancestral line will manifest within him in an explosive way. However, this bloodlust will alternate its focus every other month between himself and others. One month, it will be directed toward others and Hao will feel an intense need to hurt, punish, and kill those around him. The next month, Hao will be struck with a debilitating need to punish himself using the torture tactics utilized by the Zhang family in the past.

Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Munched on by his revenant husbando

Preferred Effect: Leaning more towards psychological, but happy to have something physical mixed in too. Just...nothing bug related when it comes to the whole true form thing. Also, happy for it to mess with his telepathy in some way, as long as it doesn't removed it completely. A month without it has been A Lot for him already.

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Charles will be a CHANGELING. Mischief becomes him, turning him deceitful and silver-tongued, quick with a lie or a charming word but never the truth. With new tricks up his sleeves, he entertains himself by shapeshifting into whatever form will cause the most chaos and confusion, animal or human or in-between. In his truest form, he appears as an embodiment — or aberration — of nature, taking on traits of flora and/or fauna. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his lust for subterfuge. However —

Once a month, following no particular pattern, Charles' mental barriers begin to erode. For a period of twelve hours, he is inundated by the inner thoughts of those around him; they filter into his mind without actively trying, with no way to shut them out. The first six hours are overwhelming, an endless cacophony Charles struggles to silence. By the final six hours of this time period, Charles struggles to differentiate between his thoughts and the white noise of other people’s minds, causing him to begin to act on their feelings and impulses and tendencies, as if he was becoming that person. Finally, when those twelve hours are up, Charles' mind goes blissfully, staggeringly silent again, and his control over his telepathy returns.

Character Name: sanji
Character Journal:

scone
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: killed by zoro after being bit by a revenant.
Supernatural Effect: selkie
Preferred Effect: physical

Edited 2025-03-15 18:15 (UTC)

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Sanji will be a SELKIE. Water attracts him like a second home, a home he wants nothing more than to share with those around him. Gills sprout from his neck, scales outlining the peaks of his body. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his yawning loneliness. However —

Upon full resurrection, once a month following no discernable pattern, Sanji experiences a deep sensation of cold that overwhelms his senses. It feels as though he’s been plunged in ice water, or he’s trapped in a snow storm. No amount of heat, clothing, or fire can warm his body, and the cold will numb him to the point that his fingers lose feeling, making basic tasks like gripping a spoon nearly impossible. Sanji will find that the only way to abate his suffering and get warm again is to engage in some kind of sexual act with another person, and only after reaching an orgasm will his body return to a normal temperature.

perfect thank u

Character Name: Marazhai Aezyrraesh
Character Journal:

agoniser
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: (Revenge) killed by august for murdering poor sweet nick. deserved.
Supernatural Effect: Demon
Preferred Effect: Would prefer to stay away from heavy physical changes because it would drive him absolutely insane, but light ones or psychological changes are a-okay ♥

For a maximum of one week post-revival, MARAZHAI will be a DEMON. He draws pleasure from tempting others into wickedness, his silver-tongued charm and addling pheromones driving them to embrace their worst vices, from pride to envy to wrath. He delights in corrupting purity, haunting the dreams of his victims, bending them to his will with lust, until they’re nothing but empty thralls for his entertainment. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake to regain his stone. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, this will subdue his lust for domination. However —

Upon full resurrection, once per month, Marazhai’s control over his bloodlust becomes tenuous at best and uncontrollable at worst. For a period of twenty-four hours, his body is afflicted with paranoia, forcing him to perceive threats that aren’t there or warp perfectly harmless situations; for example, a too-loud sound forces him to lash out before he’s even aware a weapon is in his hand, and sneaking up on him has his body moving to attack before he’s comprehended who has approached him. However, it’s during heightened moments that he’s fully overtaken to the point of a brief blackout — during tense discussions, in a crucial fight, in the heat of passion. When he comes to, he’s confronted with the violence his body enacted while he was not in control of it.

Character Name: emmrich volkarin
Character Journal:

volkarin
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: assisted suicide.
Supernatural Effect: angel.
Preferred Effect: no specific wants but would be fun to tie to his necromancy/impending lichdom somehow! physical/psychological both a-okay! 🫡

For a maximum of one week post-revival, Emmrich will be an ANGEL. Blasphemers and non-believers alike are punished by his purifying flame; those who do not bend the knee in reverence are swiftly dealt with severely. His back sprouts gilded and radiant feathers, lending to a holy presence so bright and blinding none can admire him too long, lest their eyes begin to sear. During this week, he feels a divine calling towards lake to regain his stone. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his lust for absolute devotion. However —

Upon full resurrection, Emmrich finds a portion of his body looks and feels as though it still belongs in the grave. A piece of his flesh — perhaps his fingertips, forearms, the side of his face etc (player’s roulette choice!) — has taken on the distinct, unmistakable appearance and feeling of a corpse. The skin turns pallid and waxy, and carries an eerie, perfumed note of graveyard dirt, cold to the touch and with numb feeling. Underneath the light, the patch of flesh becomes almost transparent, the veins darkened to a shadowy hue — like ink bleeding through parchment, as if the blood has coagulated inside of his veins. Cutting into the soiled flesh will earn a pungent, decaying scent, and rotting blood. The body part never heals, and the infection spreads overtime towards the surrounding flesh. Emmrich can combat the spread and recover some good flesh, though never fully heal, by requesting aid from the Sibling in the form of a prayer. Being a priest has its perks!

Character Name: Tim Laughlin
Character Journal:

holyposition
Death Number: 1
Context of Death: Choked to death by circus locket
Supernatural Effect: Angel
Preferred Effect: I'd prefer no permanent changes to his appearance but other than that, go nuts!

Edited 2025-05-06 02:09 (UTC)

For a maximum of one week post-revival, TIM will be an ANGEL. Blasphemers and non-believers alike are punished by his purifying flame; those who do not bend the knee in reverence are swiftly dealt with severely. His back sprouts gilded and radiant feathers, lending to a holy presence so bright and blinding none can admire him too long, lest their eyes begin to sear. During this week, he feels a divine calling towards the lake to regain his stone. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his lust for absolute devotion. However —

Upon full resurrection, once per month when Tim experiences intense longing (romantic, sexual, or religious) he begins to hallucinate the appearance of stigmata-like wounds on his palms, feet, and side. These wounds bleed profusely, and Tim experiences the pain as though they are real — though in reality, there’s nothing physically wrong with him that can be seen by the naked eye.
