regressor specter knight headcanons!
[pt. regressor specter knight headcanons/hcs!]
this is primarily because my system collectively kins him… and like last time we’re including our own design from our canon too!! ily donovan placentaur, stay awesome little dude :)
trauma/vent regressor 100%, he deserves this. don’t let the little guy witness any more mean things… he’s also a kitty pet regressor. this guy hisses in his dialogue i mean COME ON!!!
little baby man, little baby baby man. little baby! baby man!! /ref
has never really told anyone (not even the Enchantress) about his regression, feels like it’s distracting him from his freedom
REALLY prefers naptime over playtime, such a sweet lich can only lay awake for so long… but when he’s snoozing away, he makes for a sweet snuggle buddy!
regresses primarily from 0-3 but sometimes goes up to 4-7, it all depends on how talkative he is
carries a stuffie around the tower, his name is Bartholomew and he’s a black cat! Don normally gives Bart some little outfits and plays around with him like an imaginary friend… or y’know, like Luan all over again
the Memmec that he met, he actually adopted one for himself and named it Goldie!! she’s very sweet and loves to run around :)
likes playing when he’s awake, usually it’s either colouring or tiny puzzles… and sometimes some rattles as well!
doesn’t really have much for gear, other than Bart, but post-SoH he gets his hands on a paci & some comfy clothes to ease into his comfort zone a bit more! if he doesn’t have his paci he’s usually just in a state of constant blepping. eternal :p face, even.
he has, in fact, waddled over to Richie (Shovel) at least once. Don’s only response when questioned about it was “abwuh”. no further questions your honour, my client pleads abwuh.
likes his tummy time and normally doodles either himself or people he knows (Richie, the Order, Cassie(Shield), the Enchantress, Reize, Luan, and sometimes his friends from the old Tower of Fate!), other times he’ll just draw Bart or Goldie
doesn’t hiss at people as much, instead he just mewls or purrs! also tries to bat at things with his teeny paws… and does big stretches!! please applaud him whenever he does this, it means his undead body’s still got some flexibility to it! :D
bonuses (includes some padded regression, please DNI if you’re gonna be weird or mean about it)
[pt. bonuses. includes some padded regression, please do not interact if you’re going to be weird or mean about it.]
Richie’s his main CG, but from SoT to the end of SoH his primary CG was the Enchantress (she’s a spooky mama CG in my beady eyes…). don’t ask me how she’s qualified for this, she’s the astral entity capable of devastating wreckage who chose to take care of her teensy little kitten instead of being chaotic and evil…
his playmates are normally just BK and KK, and it’s either just happy playtime or a big snuggly pile of snoozers… they all get eepy on their own time though so the whole pile of em is a bit rare!
his regression started off with just “i don’t feel happy being a big strong adult reaper, i wanna be little guy again”, and then it went spiraling down to him being way more little than he expected… whoo boy
usually it’s rare to see him with any dips, but if he’s got one on it’s either for comfort OR he’s trying to avoid some accidents (being undead makes your muscles weak, ya know!)
doesn’t really like getting teased about being little, prefers to just have his fun in his tiny space and grow back out of it when he’s ready :)
