[desiren]

a tldr of who evelynn is, for people unfamiliar with her character / league lore.

despite the sexual nature of her voice lines and way she presents herself, let's just get it straight that evelynn is not a succubus.

evelynn is a demon that feeds on agony, despair, hurt, pain, suffering, etc. her greatest pleasure is taking people's joy and happiness to the brink and stealing it all away and watching them fall. the heavy majority of her victims are men, especially rich and powerful ones. evelynn is a shapeshifting demon who is capable of changing her appearance at a whim, often to appeal to the tastes of her prey in the moment. she does not have sex with her victims. she gets them close — very. and just when they think they'll get what they want, she kills them.

the gratification is in the kill. eve does not care about sex. it can be an enjoyable thing for her, but her choice of partner is extremely particular. she's heavily aroace with extremely slim exceptions that are highly conditional.

that all being said, evelynn is not a pleasant person. she is vicious and she is dangerous. she's flirtatious and salacious on the surface, but it is a front. she is incredibly manipulative. evelynn is an ancient and primordial being that existed as a concept of nothingness until the first rune wars fed her. these negative energies are extremely powerful, empowering her over time until she was able to become a sentient manifestation of a being that feeds on people's suffering.

with those beginnings, evelynn is in her inception an agender being that can take the form of anything and anyone, though she's particularly creative and shifts her form into unique manifestations to mirror the desires of her victims. over time she's developed a preference for a feminine appearance, very much aligning with what it is to be a woman in a way that's somewhat of an empowering reflection, because who doesn't want to see a beautiful woman take what belongs to her and put an awful and corrupt man in his place? though that isn't to say she doesn't kill women either, but it's much rarer; however, if they're particularly happy, she often cannot resist because instilling trauma in someone to such impossible degrees creates an intoxicating surge of negativity that she finds deliciously tempting.

[desiren]

i'm the girl you're thinking about, the one thing you can't live without. yeah, i'm the girl you've been waiting for — i'll have you down on your knees, i'll have you begging for more. she - devil, blossoming in sin, bleeding temptation.

Whew, anyone else feeling a little partied out from that last round? Haha — not that you can ever have too much karaoke, of course! Pleasedon'tputmedownthegarbagechute... Everyone knows that when the emperor starts singing, he keeps going until everyone drops, but I think most of our crew made it through the night in time to herald our FINAL EPISODE of 𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐋 𝐄𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐑 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐎𝐑! As fun as it's been, it's just about time to wrap up our time here and declare the winner!

As always, let's start out by saying hello to our glorious empire's best and brightest singers! :

Emperor Kayn's twelfth and final question for the competition is as ... oh, what a peculiar question. Erm, today's question is as follows:

❝ You are given the immense honour of bestowing a pet name upon His Majesty. What would you call him, and why?❞

Remember: To answer the question, reblog this post with an in character reply. To add separate commentary, use the tag #evil emperor bachelor on a separate post. You'll have about 14 hours (until 8PM PST) to submit your answer before the contestants' scores will be announced!

[desiren]

there isn't much that evelynn isn't capable of, as a shapeshifting demon who could dematerialize herself into a cloud of smoke or fall into the nightshade of invisibility at will, and take on the appearance of anyone she wished, real or not. if only she could conjure clones of herself — then, she could dive into a world of immeasurable fun and joy.

for a demon who does not need to sleep, she does tend to enjoy her slumber, but for the eve of evil emperor bachelor's final night before it sunsets beyond the metaphorical horizon, she spent the entire night wandering the moment she left the studio. evelynn is above petty mischief making and parlor tricks and immature, petulant pranks. no, she is greater than that, and she ... how did akali word it? oh, right: evelynn isn't a low - level hater. her heart twists with anguish and aches with a wrenching pain deep in her stomach in knowing that she cannot hurt, maim, or kill, or harm in any fashion, any of the contests that remain — namely, ahri. ahri alone stands in the way of her victory, but unfortunately, that would incur kayn's wrath and, well, it isn't K/DA without its illustrious leader, now is it?

she mulls over everything she has already done while aboard kayn's ship, calling back to the fights in the pits, releasing the universe's most dangerous and foul beasts loose upon general population ... it would be so boring to do the same thing all over again. old, worn, tired, boring.

there's a reason all of the best hits happen just once, right?

she couldn't just slaughter the entire population of the ship. she could, but she can't.

evelynn rolls her eyes.

her hair is tied high in her classic, iconic ponytail with a crown of jewels fixed around it, and her bangs are freshly trimmed. today's colors are a mix of pastel lavenders and silvers and black and deep, rich blues, with a lavender corset and white flowers sewn into swirling patterns across the bodice. the jacket she wears is a deep royal blue with lavender accents, and it falls into a beautiful train of frills and lace in a way that makes it look like a dress from behind. the sleeves are tight around her arms, embroidered with sheer lace over glistening satin that shines beneath the lines, and there are beautiful handsewn jewels all along the arms. her pants are high - waisted black, matte leather, with thigh - high laced stiletto boots coming over her knees. evelynn is regal, poised, fatally beautiful.

if looks could kill, she is the curse that sends an entire sea of troops falling to their knees for daring to meet her sun - gold eyes.

she doesn't immediately head out to the studio, even when she's finally ready. no, for one, final time, she wears emperor kayn's form. this time, it's to simply sit upon his throne upon the world and peer down as the ship's people pass and regard her — him — with reverent fealty burning in their eyes. she sees fear, she sees genuine admiration, awe, and perhaps, even true adoration. this is where she wants to be, this is where she belongs. on top of the world with all else minuscule and inconsequential, meaningless beneath her feet.

when she finally has her fill, she descends and disappears around a corner, shifting back into form in the invisibility, and she's in the studio right as people are scrambling, wondering where she is. her answer to tonight's question is easy, and she just has to laugh mockingly when asked. " you're kidding me with this one, right? you can't be serious. right? i've been calling kayn baby the entire show. that's my pet name for him. please. he's my baby. "

[desiren]

evelynn is side eyeing the both of you.

you know who you are.

[umbane]

We're just about there! Welcome to our second-to-last episode of 𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐋 𝐄𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐑 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐎𝐑! Yesterday was a big day for out contestants, with a lot of points handed out and plenty of entertainment to keep them busy, but today's a new day, and our emperor loves to keep us on our toes! What do you think he has in store for us, hmmm?

I know them, you know them, but we love to greet them anyways. Everyone say hello to our contestants! Let's do a roll call! :

@heartate @spellforce @desiren @diveyne @fcrgiven @danceblades @deathsmark @bikmui

Emperor Kayn's eleventh question for the competition is — oh, what an honour for our remaining contestants! :

❝ The emperor wants to do karaoke with you. Pick your best song, and explain your choice.❞

[desiren]

the moment she was released from the confines of the studio the night before, evelynn swept to the shadows, lying in wait, hiding beneath everyone's noses but out of plain sight, observing, like a hunter would its prey. learning their habits, their routines, the expressions that morph their faces when they're happy or displeased or the subtle shifts and the minute details when they're in the middle of a lie or in a swelling sea of discomfort. it is the eve of the final day, with only another round to go, to top tonight. if there was ever a time to act, it's tonight.

so, what would it be?

would evelynn eliminate her competitors in brutal fashion and leave a trail of blood in her wake?

she considers it. deeply. there has never been a time in her life where she has ever played fair — why start now? why not prove to the emperor of the universe just how barbarous and callous she could be? who else should a man of his stature keep by his side than someone who's an extension of everything he stands for and all that he could ever want at his fingertips?

she wants to. with all of the blood running cold in her veins, thick with desire, so chilling in its electricity that it shivers down the length of her exposed spine in the floor length dress and the train of deep violet sheer fabric that trails behind her feet as she walks. the straps are made of beaded pearls, real pearls, not a single one anything like the other, with a deep plunging v - shaped neckline. the fabric covers her front torso alone in a way that hugs her soft, curved hips tight, leaving her sides and back bare with her hair pinned high in a tight bun with a crown of glistening diamonds and pearls hugging around it with teardrop amethysts hanging down from silver pins. a choker clings tight to her neck with a rope of black diamonds and a waterfall cascade of amethysts falling down from the center of her neck, low enough to draw the gaze down to her plush chest, but high enough that the biggest teardrop doesn't quite touch, sitting just above.

evelynn strides close enough to the glass windows to raise an arm and drag her clawed fingertips against them. if she dug hard enough, she could have scratched the glass, but she keeps her touch light, drawing her hand down to her side only as she arrives before that familiar door.

she supposes she'll put a pin in the idle thoughts of murder — for now.

everything is in one ear and out the other, and all she can do is give her painfully indifferent nods as a look of discontent blooms in her eyes as she glares at the producer on the set to get a move on. the poor announcer scurries onto the set and offers evelynn a nervous smile, to which she rolls her eyes at in return, brightening only once she hears today's question.

" oh, karaoke? i thought his majesty would never ask! " evelynn exclaims, sitting up tall in her seat. raising a hand to her face, she taps a razor sharp nail against the edge of her plump bottom lip. " my best song will have to be one of my own. surely, you've heard of my non - K / DA work, right, baby? " a pleading look twists her features in such a sickeningly sweet way that is anything but sweet. " it's called lost. i think my darling's voice would lend perfectly in accompaniment to mine, and we can really show everyone what we're vocally capable of, mm? "

[umbane]

Good morning everyone, and welcome to our tenth round of 𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐋 𝐄𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐑 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐎𝐑! Can you believe it? We're in the home stretch now! And with our flight deck locked down, it should be smooth sailing from here on out. No more morning upsets, right? Though it does make for good TV!

Our numbers may have thinned out, but not our love for the empire! Say good morning, contestants! :

Emperor Kayn's tenth question for the competition is as follows:

❝ Out of all the beings in the universe, you may pit two against each other in His Majesty's fight cages. Which two would you pick, and why?❞

[desiren]

a part of evelynn is beginning to think that the best course of action would be to simply take matters into her own hands and eliminate every remaining contestant left on this ship in a brutal display of utmost devotion to the empire's own beloved emperor. she thinks about the message it would send, to her competitors, to kayn, to the world watching from lightyears away.

how many would kill for him? how many would do anything for him? part of it is in the modicum of reverence she holds for someone of his stature, the ichor flowing thick in his veins, but the other is a sickening, clawing, hungering obsession to consume him, for someone as powerfully commanding as emperor kayn to fall from the tremendous height of his throne and shatter his knees to lay his lips to the ground she walks upon, to cling to each honeyed hymn and silk - spun lie that falls from her serpentine tongue down every winding path she treads. her devotion is as true as it is its blasphemously idolatrous in the worship of false idols — always to her own gain, spinning dizzying webs from ceiling to floor across an elaborate labyrinth where even she can no longer find where it all begins nor where it will ever end.

if she killed them all, kayn would see that evelynn would do anything it takes, not simply to stand victorious by his side, but to show just how truly ruthless she is.

it is the tenth day, and two more yet remain.

she could do it. she could kill everyone. she would kill everyone. would it come down to it? she wonders...

her teeth sink down upon her lower lip as she sits quietly upon the leather seat that the crew will have to quickly replace, because she's tracing circle and divots into the arm with her taloned digits, poking holes in with the razor sharp tips. she's semi - early, for once, having much to ponder over just how she wants this competition to end. she feels the ire beginning to surge like a riptide within her veins at the thought of her fate being decided by someone else, even by kayn.

she might kill them all, she thinks.

" mm? " evelynn wasn't paying attention at all. " you're going to have to repeat that for me, honey. " and so when she finally hears the question, a perversion of joyous delight tears over her lips in an instant with the corners of her mouth curling up. there is something about the look in her eyes that makes them come aglow, terrifyingly vicious and predatory and threatening. " a fight, huh? " she knows her choice instantly, and she knows it's shocking and bold and she doesn't think anyone else is brave enough to say it, but, she hopes it'll leave an impression. " myself, first of all, " evelynn purrs, sitting up straight with both palms pressed to either arm of the chair. " and my opponent? our very own emperor of the universe. he's just so strong, and i love watching a big, strong, muscular man get all hot and bothered and sweaty. he's the strongest person in this universe, right? i want a taste of what he's got. i want to feel what it's like to be at his mercy. i want him to feel what it's like to walk on the thresholds of death. i want the glory. i want the adrenaline, because, oh, the adrenaline of a good fight is better than any orgasm a man could ever give me. " evelynn pauses for dramatic effect, staring deep into the camera's lens. " what do you say, baby? let's do it, it'll be better than sex, and you and i know all about that, don't we? "

[desiren]

"Eve." Of course, she knew he was arriving. A man of his presence can't travel unseen — Evelynn would have heard the commotion his presence causes, the praises, the cries of surprise, all the way down the hallway. There are rules about contestants entering his chambers, but none about where he can go. He's the emperor, after all.

"We need to ... talk. About your behaviour." He gives the impression of a man who is doing his very best to hold himself still. "You seem like you need an outlet."

evelynn always knows — there is little to naught that can slip beneath the sharp, keen senses of being older than some of the selfsame stars distant within their sights but far out of reach. it's in the hairs that rise upon the nape of her neck when she senses the radiance of power burgeoning within a vessel almost too small to contain it, far before she hears the sound of his telltale footsteps bellowing above the hushed silence that falls in the aftermath of excited trills and shrill squeaks and cries singing the emperor's praises in a forgotten trail behind him. she doesn't bat an eye when her door opens, and his aura alone illuminates the dimly lit room far into the corners where the shadows retreat.

the thunder of his voice settles deep into every pore in her skin, sinking down into flesh and tendon and down into the bone where it resonates and rings loud and bright, the crisp sound of a bell at dawn and another at dawn, leaving a deep imprint into her body like a scar upon her soul. sweet memoria, blissful remembrance, scorched steel imparting blistering brands into her skin so that she could never forget the sound, the look in his eyes, the curve of his lips, the cut of his jaw, the shape of his hands.

she has no true need for sleep, but she finds herself peacefully reclined upon the bed and its luxurious satin sheets whilst dressed in sheer black lace lingerie, a thin floral print robe with fur cuffs and collars going down the lapels to meet the hem traveling loose around her waist. evelynn is never expecting anyone — it just so happens lingerie is all she enjoys for her own viewing pleasure, and kayn is opportune enough to look upon her in this moment, back pressed to the headboard with lithe, elegant legs crossed over one another while her arms drape light over her knees.

her expression is indifferent at first, though the faintest hint of curiosity flickers into her golden eyes. " my behavior? " evelynn repeats, drawing a hand up to her chest while a mocking pout toys over her lips in tandem with the playful incredulity running thick in her tone. " you're going to have to be a lot more specific. i don't have the slightest idea what you're talking about, baby. why don't you come over here and tell me? "

[umbane]

Did everyone get a good night's sleep? I sure didn't — uh, did. I did! How could anyone not sleep well with the amenities aboard this ship? I visited the bottomless pool for some exercise right before bed and I was out like a light! Haha ... But more importantly, we're all on the edge of our seats as we enter the final few rounds. After an upset like last round, who knows what's in store for our competitors?

The competition is thinning out, but we're in for some more excitement. It's the final stretch! Say hello to our contestants! :

@heartate @spellforce @desiren @diveyne @fcrgiven @danceblades @deathsmark @bikmui

Emperor Kayn's ninth question for the competition is as follows:

❝ Rate your spaceship piloting skills out of ten, and explain your answer.❞

[desiren]

all has returned to a state of stasis in normalcy, it seems. well, as normal as anything could be within the emperor's empire upon his spaceship in the middle of nowhere in the endless sea of flickering stars and various alien life forms. if there wasn't going to be an entourage of kayn's guards tailing her anymore ... it's back to mischief as usual. there are only so many days left before someone is inevitably chosen as the prized winner, and she is neck and neck to ahri by a single sliver of a measly little point. something tells evelynn that she was right to assume that kayn has been stealing her rightfully earned points away for each time she's left him hanging, but all she can do is shrug and smile.

it's not like she's allowed in his room, right?

or, perhaps, at the very least, not if she's trying to sneak into it. she'll hunt him down, eventually. she's suddenly feeling particularly vengeful about the way he's been docking her score.

as enormous as this ship is, and with what little time she's had to herself, she hasn't been able to explore its every nook and cranny, and there's surely secret spaces upon the vessel that evelynn will never be able to find on her own. not without ample time, at least, and it's time she doesn't have. there are only so many hours in a day, even in space; how odd, actually. does time pass differently here? do they still adhere to the earth's revolutions around the sun? to an ageless being like evelynn, it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, but it matters down to timing and silly events like kayn's little game show.

even with how quickly and discreetly she can travel, she's still unable to find kayn. a mask of twitch anger settles over her features. that ever present spark dancing in her eyes that craves famine and war and anguish and terror remains dim, but kindles with yearning, and suddenly, the camera crew she just walked past looks extremely enticing.

when she hears today's question, evelynn stares everyone down as if they had asked her the stupidest question she's ever heard of, and she has to physically bite down on her tongue to keep it from slipping out of her mouth. " i can't say i've ever piloted a spaceship, " evelynn starts, making sure to exaggerate everything she says to ensure that everyone listening can hear the stupefied you've - got - to - be - kidding - me dripping from her voice with thick incredulity. " but i own about, oh, i don't know, twenty sports cars, and i imagine piloting a spaceship can't be any different from driving one of those at 200 miles per hour on an open road. what do you say, baby? wanna come down to earth with me and find out? i'll show you what kind of fun we can have in the back seat, too. "

[umbane]

That was a lot of fossil fuels burned, and a lot of incredible items added to our glorious emperor's collection. How reassuring that his excellence will now be even more immune to the dangers he faces every day simply by waking up! Now we can all rest assured that we'll have many, many more years of his divine rule!

And we have our lovely contestants to thank for that! Let's list them off again, just for fun!:

Emperor Kayn's eighth question for the competition is as follows:

❝ Where is the ora gate?❞

[desiren]

evelynn's eye twitches with irritation the moment she slides the door to her room open and steps foot out into the hall. there are countless more guards in open view than ever before, and her immediate thought leaps to how this could only lend to make her mischief - making a thousand times more difficult if the guards insisted on keeping an eye on her at all times. the annoyance begins to only slightly dissipate when she takes note of their posture, the expressions upon their faces, and she quickly realizes that their presence doesn't appear to be on suspicion of her. the guards are staring out around her, eyes observant, sharp, and analytical with their bodies tense and ready to strike as needed. they're looking for something. for someone, perhaps.

she tries to move past them but they keep just outside her radius. her mouth opens to say something, but she clamps it back shut and clicks her tongue against the roof of her mouth. knowing full well that they are simply following orders, evelynn also happens to not care what their orders are, but she knows it'll only fall on deaf ears if she yelled at them to complain. were she to kill them, they'd only be replaced by the next line of soldiers off the press, much like severing the necks of hydras — they'll grow and grow. no matter how she, or anyone else, may cull down the population of guards, kayn isn't the emperor of the universe for nothing at all. he has his means. everyone could be replaced.

she understands, because she is the same.

evelynn has fired, or killed, so many members of her personal entourage and crew, as well as those who worked for K / DA as a whole entity, simply on a careless whim, just because she felt like it.

they follow her to her destination in silence and stand guard outside of the studio door to ensure that no one who doesn't belong enters without their authorization, and to watch over the stark halls. well, at least they wouldn't be surrounding her during the interview round. it's for their own good, she thinks, because if she had to deal with them looming over her when she's trying to think and relax and tease the emperor on live television, she would have murdered all of them for the entire universe to see.

when the cameras begin rolling and the lights shine upon her with the intensity of a thousand burning suns and the question hangs above her, invisible, she can't help the look of surprise that falls upon her countenance. what an odd thing to ask on a game show of people attempting to win the emperor's prized affections and the glory of his attention. a hand lifts to conceal her lips and the carefully sly smile that gently begins to tug upon them. she isn't surprised that the emperor is asking, though. evelynn has to wonder ... does anyone truly know? and if they did, why would they be foolish enough to board the emperor of the universe's home? would they reveal it to him? she sees it for what it is, and she lowers her hand and wiggles her body with a shiver of excitement.

by now, evelynn is sure the entire world is more than aware that she is beyond ordinary, she, a dazzling diamond in K / DA, is not human. but, no one knows just how old she is — ancient. primordial, even, a being that has existed since intelligent life forms began to come to be as more than fraying concepts without firm binds or foundations or tangible matter beyond their minuscule molecules and cells unseen beneath even the most trained eye. before she was a popstar upon earth, before she even began masquerading as the most dangerous and beautiful women the most foolish men the planet had ever seen, she, too, was just a formless concept, a manifestation of evil that yearned for and relished in suffering. she fed on interplanetary cosmic destruction of countless civilizations and their sorrow and grief and their anger and their rage, until one day, she was powerful enough to walk amongst them. for all that she consumed, the more she became capable of, too.

" which one? " evelynn finally asks in return, sliding to the edge of her seat with a knowing smirk toying over her lips. her answer, simple as it is, will come as a shock to anyone listening, if they even believed that someone like her would even know. the universe may be aware that evelynn isn't human, but they don't know what she is or who she is beyond the facade she's worn for the world. she coils her moonlight locks around a lithe, elegant digit and tips her head down just a few degrees, gaze half - lidded and still flirtatious. perhaps no one will believe that she knows, so why pretend to not? " there are several, you know. and i could tell you where each and every one is. well, unless they've moved, been destroyed ... you know! "

I think we can all agree that last round was a tight one, and it'll only get tougher from here on out as we move into the second half of our competition! Remember that we have a new scoring system that our lovely emperor has forced us to adapt to halfway through production specially designed for us! How exciting! There really is never a dull moment aboard this ship, is there?

... Anyways! Let's give a warm good morning to our contestants, who mostly seem very cheerful today! :

Emperor Kayn's seventh question for the competition is as ... oh, what a peculiar question. Erm, today's question is as follows:

❝ You are permitted to bring one item from your homeworld to present to the emperor as a gift. Describe it, and we will retrieve it for his inspection.❞

Remember: To answer the question, reblog this post with an in character reply. To add separate commentary, use the tag #evil emperor bachelor on a separate post. You'll have about 14 hours (until 8PM PST) to submit your answer before the contestants' scores will be announced!

of course emperor kayn would be the one to throw a curveball at all of them in the midst of the competition just as it's beginning to truly ripen, now that they have arrived in the middle. not only has he altered the way people will be judged going forward, but the ones already deemed unworthy could come crawling back? ridiculous. were it up to evelynn, she would have already tossed the poor losers out into the endless expanse of space to suffocate in the vacuum of the void, or sent them into the rings to fight to the death with the universe's deadliest warriors and beasts. she doesn't believe in second chances.

evelynn looks particularly vexed at the moment, though. her upper lip curls into a fierce snarl and she scowls at everyone who dares to look her way while she passes them by in the halls. there is no destination in mind today — she's resigned herself to the fates of the ship's labyrinth. if she gets lost, then she gets lost. oh, well.

given the new ... points system kayn has decided to implement, evelynn is unable to fathom how she didn't make a perfect score from yesterday's question. but, after considering it for a moment further, she lifts a curious brow and a diminutive smile blooms over her lips. was he ... upset with her, perhaps, for not allowing his hands to wander further? truthfully, she would have allowed it. wanted it, even. the fact that it all would have been on a live broadcast feed didn't bother her even the slightest bit. she just has to keep him wanting, but that shouldn't be too difficult, right?

her expressions morphs into something ever so slightly more pleasant, and after what felt like hours of aimless wandering ( when in reality it had only been a single hour ), she brings herself to the studio at last. by now, the poor crew members have begun to reactively flinch with fear if evelynn so much as breathes in their general vicinity, and it tickles her with a world of delight.

" myself, " is evelynn's only answer, at first. she is silent for long enough that the film crew looks amongst themselves while wondering if they should send for the next contestant, but evelynn finally laughs wickedly and throws her head back against the seat. " like, please! aren't i the greatest treasure he could receive? i'll even prop myself up beautifully nude and wrapped in silk ribbons and sprinkled with glitter, and he can do whatever he wants. marvel and bask in my beauty, paint me, touch me ... the works. " evelynn pouts, and somehow almost looks sweetly pathetic as she stares deep into the glass lens of the camera. " are you really going to keep me out of your bedroom, baby? if i'm the prized item, you could keep me there on display for your pleasure at all times. "
