Oblivion-Logs

''Something rattles in the forbidden crevices of your skull. It laments and begs to be known, to be remembered. But the world is unforgiving. You are exhausted by the constant presenting yourself as fulfilled. One wrong word or move will label you as unwell again. So it all fades into Oblivion.'' To rot.''

The Narrative

Elaine Hainault, Tim Wright, Tabby Anderson, Ruby Addams, and Marybeth Vu all have a disturbing past. None dares to speak it. They move through the motions that is life and take their medication with desperation to forget— What were they trying forget again?

There are only three consistent patients who attend the group meetings Dr. Soun mandates. The others have moved on. Marybeth and Tabby may join on rare occasions.

Will Tim, Elaine, and Ruby be able to move on or has the Rot seeped too deep into their souls?

Oblivion is a guilty pleasure Slenderverse project. The major characters belong to my mutuals. However, well-known established characters from Marble Hornets or x-virus will appear.

This au is pretty bleak and adventurous compared to the more hopeful Slenderverse aus. It delves into the psyche of those infected with a cosmic disease and how they cope. Some writhe away, and some continue to live despite the looming dread.

Oblivion is a creative exercise for me, and there will be no solid storyline. Please go check out my lovely mutuals for fanfics!

The Houndling || proxy character

A/N: This is a reinterpretation of @connectionterminated13's character Dash for Oblivion. Everything was done with her input involved. This was a lovely experience, thank you letting create this beast. I encourage sending asks about Houndling! We'd love to talk more about her. Divider: @uzmacchiato

Birthed from the Rot, Houndling is the bare bones of a person that never learned to be one.

The miracle baby was given to she who brings the plague out of nativity. Being born with rot infused in one's DNA did not grant the infant worship, sure its existence was acknowledged. But it was not responsive to the cooing of women or probing of the men.

And so the masquerade grew bored because in a world where ambition ensured survival, the girl fell flat in their eyes.

However, the girl was drawn to Madam Salvatore plague. The woman who fed her, bathed her, and clothed her. The only person who didn't want to soften her.

When the girl tore insects apart, the woman rewarded her. No flash of disgust or mockery.

And as she entered adolescence, everyone was reminded this girl was a spawn of the rot. The girl could tear limbs easily from the strongest of animals, sharp teeth to pierce flesh, and sensitive ears to track movement.

Yet the girl still lacked that individuality everyone else clung to with symbolic monikers and flashy costumes. And the dog motif was convenient for the girl, claws to split skin, and a mask to conceal the humanness.

No longer could the masquerade see a girl when the most human part of her was locked away behind that dog head.

📝🪤 🫀💔

-@cadetterrified (for the ask game!)

📝🪤 - What sort of contract are the Operator’s proxies under?

The Rot (Slenderman ) doesn't have physical presence and a very limited mystical one. Most Carrions (proxies) are only exist because a warden found them and recruited them. Most end up as carrions for shelter, guidance, or a desire for camaraderie. Most just see wardens as someone who sees their circumstances and want help from Rot Exposure. However, there the select few who don't join in desperation but morbid desire to adventure outside the bounds of society such as June (leech) or have been born into it such as Houndling.

🫀💔 - What are the main relationships and friendships between characters? (Add characters to the ask if you want to ask about a specific character or characters)

Thank you for this one!! This is a bit long and there are so much more.

Elaine Hainault (@gothic-illustrations) and Tim Wright are dancing around the fact they have feeling for each other. A lot of the oblivion is about how they cope with Rot Exposure and how they find comfort in each other despite knowing being close will accelerate infection. Tabby Anderson and Gabriel Reed are found family based on shared religious trauma. Most of Tabby's arc is looking for Gabriel and leaving guilty for leaving him when she went to boarding school. Slashy/vailly and Liam/X-virus are the closest thing to a loving couple proxy you will see. The two are content being proxies as society shunned them. Vailly being into literature and Liam with science, the two compliment each other very well. Rouge/Heather and Alice both lost their husbands and infants. They understand the pain and loss of the other. In addition, they are the oldest carrions in the forest. They have seen people come and go more then they can count. Lauren and Kate were in love. Lauren's love for Kate killed her and Kate's love for Lauren is what's keeping her alive today. That fragile hope that Lauren can be revived. And then there's June (Leech), Abel (vendetta), and Houndling. This trio are nothing more than co-workers for the most part. They all bounce off each other's weaknesses and strengths. Though Abel and June are a little closer due to attending the same college but that's all.

Elaine x Tim

A/N: Elaine belongs to @gothic-illustrations, dividers were made by me. Any questions are encouraged!

Fluff

The very first time they met was when Brian bought Tim to one of Elaine's performances.

They bantered briefly outside the club. Tim mentioned he liked music but was horrible at playing instruments.

Elaine encouraged him to keep playing before she returned to her band.

The two would meet again attending the same support group. Elaine was smoking outside the building.

The two continued to smoke together and vent about their days for the next few months.

Tim would offer doing handy work which Elaine would refuse for the next year.

After she developed feelings for Tim, Elaine began accepting his help and even asking him to check things out that were minor.

Tim is a car mechanic so Elaine always visits him if her car is being weird even though she could just fix it herself.

On rare occasions Tim plays the ukulele and Elaine sings.

Tim and Elaine will have friend dinners (dates) whenever Lillian is at a sleepover.

If Tim ever sleeps walks, he always ends up at Elaine's house.

They fell asleep on call.

Elaine tried teaching Tim hunting. He did like it, he felt sick.

Angst

Elaine and Tim crave stability yet chaos loves them.

Elaine really likes Tim but he doesn't have his life together. She doesn't want to risk adding him to Lillian's life and then Tim bailing.

Tim thinks Elaine is out of his league and worries someone more mentally and financially stable will come along.

The more time they spend together, the more the rot grows. Effectively making their lives worst.

The more time they spend together, the more the rot spreads. Effectively making their lives worst .

Tim worries about Eve and Elaine's relationship as Eve appears more put together then him.

Elaine doesn't like how toxic Tim and Marybeth are. As the two encouraged each other's vices.

Tim believes that exterminating the rot is the only one way Elaine and Tim can be together.

A/N: Vailly and Liam's story is subject to change as more canon information is release.

Fluff

Vailly and Liam both came from harsh upbringings.

Vailly had a deadbeat alcoholic mom, missing dad, and creepy landlord.

Pre-rot, Vailly was very emotional reserved compared to her peers. However, she showed passion for film, dogs and hockey.

Becoming a carrion was invigorating for Vailly. She doesn't remember what befell her mom and landlord but she doesn't care. She's free now.

Liam's parents disappeared one day and he was put into foster care.

He had trouble adjusting to his new situation, his entire world flipped, his foster parents were short tempered, the kids at school gave him funny looks.

While exploring the woods one day, Liam brought back a sample of Rot blight to observe, resulting to a break out.

Liam believes he can pinpoint exactly how achieve the favorable come out with the rot.

Liam stumbled into the forest a few years after Vailly joined. For the first few months the two were reserved.

They were 18-19 when they met.

However, Vailly recognized Liam was a fellow Spanish speaker and had trouble adjusting to English.

Vailly began speaking to him in Spanish. She explained how the forest worked, everyone's roles and why they couldn't return to society.

The two began talking about their childhood. It's foggy but they remember the same feelings of being ostracized and weak adults.

And then they bonded over being trans and their experiences.

While Liam is into science and Vailly is into humanities, the two have no problem listening to the other geek out.

The two enjoy reading, fishing, and foraging together.

Liam always goes to Vailly for comfort after nightmares.

Vailly will stay up with Liam until he fells asleep.

Liam is the only carrion, Vailly consistently speaks to everyday.

They two have an adopted dog that followed Vailly home from the store.

Vailly and Liam like sneaking out and having night dates at gardens.

But they mostly just want to cuddle up in their cabins.

Proxy dynamic

X-virus and Slashy are a lethal pair.

X-virus carries many syringes with a neurodegenerative toxin.

And a few carry the Rot's blight too.

He's height and keen eyesight are a challenge to sneak pass. Any encounter with him is planned.

He uses a tactical knife for close up encounters.

Slashy uses her machete, throwing knives and her stealth.

Her vigilant gaze notices the smallest details, and changes. Nothing gets pass her unless Kate or Rouge tells her to turn a blind eye.

Slashy is remarkably stealthy, you'll never feel her there, you'll never know she noticed your approach until you're bleeding out.

Slashy is typically the one on patrol, however, if she is severely harmed or captured by another faction. X-virus will be quietly planning your demise.

X-virus always prioritizes Slashy over anyone else even those in leadership positions in a conflict.

[oblivionlogs]

The Manor is a reinterpretation of the popular slendermansion trope. The residence and forest are a maze to those who rebuke the Rot's (slenderman) presence.

This is home to Plague's Masquerade. A fraction of carrions (proxies) that are ruthless, and theatrical. They follow the classical proxy portrayal.

Kate's court is coming soon.

[ruinsversearchive]

Eve is the only actual doctor to the Carrion. While the others have basic knowledge for small cuts, Eve is responsible for to broken bones and bullet wounds.

This is partially on purpose to further torment Eve for being rebellious.

Slashy || Oblivion

Slashy belongs to @crowqueendraws

A/N: I tried my best to keep character accurate to canon based off current information. DM for misinformation fixes.

Name: Valerie Jean mitchell

Alias: Vailly, Slashy

Age: 30

Height: 5'3

Mask: Old Jason Voorhees replica

Weapon: Machete

Job: Carrion of the Rot

Track and document the infected. Taking notes on infected and severed behaviors. Eliminate the Severed.

Rotten's mark: left shoulder blade (appears as a tattoo)

Partner: Liam (X-virus)

Tracking: Tim Wright, Elaine Hainault, Lexi Keller, Eve Haven, Alette, and Gabriel Reed Keller

Character synopsis:

Slashy is a stealthy and quiet member of Kate's domain. While Vailly fulfills her duties, she doesn't particularly seem devoted or faithless to the Rot. No one knows about her past nor does she remember.

She's the most stoic member, rarely talking or showing emotions. The only people she does talk to are Kate, The general, the Prowler, Grinner but mainly Liam.

While not tracking anyone, Slashy enjoys reading or playing with the General's Cane Corsos.

Relationships:

The Rot

Vailly doesn't remember much about how it found her. Everything she knows is through Kate.

Kate is the reason everyone is alive. Slashy respects Kate for stepping up as the leader and creating a system to keep everyone alive and in good graces with the Rot. Even if Kate has no light behind her eyes and has tea time with a rotten corpse.

The General seems too kind to be the head of patrol but Slashy thinks he's cool. He keeps everyone alive and his dogs are cute.

The Prowler is known as Kate's second hand. Slashy rarely sees her. The Prowler is always in the trees and strikes only when Carrions get in violent fights or outsiders invade.

Mallory Anderson leader of an another domain. Slashy hasn't interacted with her. She overheard Lexi stating Mallory is a brute though.

Liam is quiet and keeps to his self most of the time. No one really knows why or how Slashy and X-virus became so close. All is known is that they're care deeply for each and are inseparable.

Grinner doesn't cause trouble so Slashy doesn't have to interact much. Vailly does like her dog. She's a good kid.

Eve is the top weakest link. Vailly is constantly surveying her ever move. She knows Eve clever and bitter person who would burn the garden to spite the Rot.

Lexi Keller is the second weakest link. The pale haired woman is only alive because of Kate, Slashy would've weeded her out if Lexi wasn't a caretaker for Gabriel and Alette. The two barely react but Lexi feels Slashy's gaze all the time.

Gabriel is unpredictable. Slashy knows he won't ever defect but his distrusting nature and history with Mallory makes him volatile. His capricious behaviors often puts him on Slashy's raider.

Alette. Slashy doesn't know much about the girl. She doesn't really believe she has a connection to the Rot though. Seeing the Rot has a certain effect on the and the girl doesn't have the same hollow look Kate has.

Alice is chill. Slashy informs Alice who the weak links are and keep them from defecting.
