here he is, the sarcastic selfish diva asshole that started it all.
hey everyone! i’m super excited to be here and play this guy who i think was done so dirty on the show - ugh. anyways, little bit about him for those who are not familiar with his story:
silas
2000 year old psychic witch.
silas was born in ancient greece and fell in love with a woman named amara.
basically he was a member of a very powerful group of witches called the travelers and he tricked another witch named qetsiyah to assist him on a spell that would make them immortal. by tricked i mean, he seduced her and she fell in love with him.
now because he is a piece of shit, he stole the potion and shared it with amara instead of qetsiyah, thus becoming the first immortal creature.
yeah he cheated on qetsiyah and left her on the altar. lets just say she didn’t take it well and pretty much convinced him that she killed amara and then turned him into stone. and he has been trapped that way, starving, for 2000 years. the whole woman scorn saying? originates from her.
she left him with the immortality cure in the hopes that he would eventually drink it and die so he could be with amara again but he never did cause hes a stubborn guy.
he was found by the gang and woken up by katherine.
this whole cure thing is a mess that i can’t really explain in a few words so lets just say that he eventually took the cure and was ready to die to be with amara until he realized that she was not actually dead.
stefan ended up killing him eventually and after spending some time trapped on the other side he was eventually sucked into hell where he spent years being tortured - oh fun.
now he’s back with revenge on his mind because fuck everyone.
he is a very powerful witch and he is not subtle with his powers. uses it whenever he wants against whomever he wants. he also reads minds but im not going to use this on your character without asking first so no worries.
currently he is working as a witch for hire because he has no real new worldly talents lbr. like hes not going to get a 9/5 job
some people mistake him for his doppleganger and he does take advantage of that whenever he can
personality
he really just cares about himself so everyone else is pretty much disposable. people to him are means to an end. you know, like pawns on a chest board.
super sarcastic, blunt, uncaring, superficial, narcissistic, self absorbed, arrogant, cruel, sadistic, just - the actual worst.
he has a very dark sense of humor and can be extremely exhausting to be around him.
he is not a nice guy, lets just leave it at that.
the love he had for amara might have been his one and only redeemable quality tbh. but he thinks she’s dead ( again ) so he has none.
wanted
amara, of course.
i think it would be fun for qetsiyah to come back and make him miserable. they could go head to head again.
clients? people who need witchy stuff done. a dark object here and there? a curse to be placed on someone? he ain’t cheap though.
people who will confuse him with stefan and he might play along for shits and giggles.
doppleganger party. he will judge their hair and insist he’s the better looking one.
