𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧 : 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐟 𝐤𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧 .

DISCLAIMER: This information was compiled and put together with several friends in the Descendants fandom, but a huge shoutout goes to Chey ( @tiderider ) for coming up with the initial premise seen below.

When The Chernabog was imprisoned on the Isle of the Lost, the anti-magical barrier weakened its power considerably, forcing it to resort to various methods in order to survive. One such method included splitting its remaining power into mortal vessels. However, with each new vessel it created, the weaker its true body became.

Konstantin is one such vessel. Like all other vessels of The Chernabog, Konstantin went through the normal stages of growth and development that all mortals do: infancy, childhood, adolescence and, finally, adulthood. As he and his "siblings" grew, they uncovered various gifts and abilities - unique to themselves and their personal growth - which allowed them to feed upon others' emotions and grow stronger.

These gifts, however, were weakened. The anti-magical barrier meant that many of The Chernabog's vessels did not unlock the true potential of their power until after the barrier had been destroyed, while on the other hand, others were able to harness their powers early on.

When the barrier finally came down, The Chernabog attempted to restore itself to its full, immense power by summoning its vessels back to him. However, by this time, Konstantin and his fellow vessels had led independent lives and had created bonds with the people and environment around them. They did not want to return to The Chernabog, but were unable to resist its call. Rather than return to the original host, however, the vessels came together and devoured the severely weakened Chernabog, consuming what power it had left and unlocking their true potential.

KONSTANTIN INFO DUMP:

Konstantin is one of the oldest vessels and therefore one of the strongest. Like the rest of his siblings, he is gifted with a number of enhanced abilities and powers, which include: longevity, durability, temperature resistance, disease immunity, strength/agility, and accelerated healing. While this makes him incredibly strong and hard to kill, he is not immortal and can be killed by mortal means if he has not Fed properly.

While most of his siblings are aware of each other's varied upbringing, Konstantin's past remains shrouded in mystery. He never speaks of it, and prefers to keep the charade that he has simply "always existed".

Konstantin is not a nice person. He is apathetic to the extreme, lacking the ability to feel and process human emotion. Emotions he does portray are often an exaggerated mimicry from watching those around him. He does not feel empathy or compassion and has no problem doing what is necessary for he and his siblings to survive. That being said, he has perfected the art of blending in and can often fool others into thinking he can feel emotions like sympathy, guilt or even love. He can come off incredibly charming and approachable, but at the end of the day, it is all just an act.

His lack of an emotional spectrum comes at a price. He needs to feed on human emotions in order to survive. By draining mortals of their compassion, understanding, and other emotions, Konstantin's own powers grow. However, this means that Konstantin will experience the phantom emotions of his victims. He'll leech feelings of affection, resentment, love, hate, in equal measures which can be incredibly conflicting to his apathetic nature. As a side effect to his mortal victims, while Konstantin grows in strength, his victims will grow weaker and will temporarily lose their ability to feel and process emotions.

Like the rest of his siblings, Konstantin has a second form, often referred to as a "demon" form. Konstantin's demon form, like the false charm he portrays, is meant to lure his victims into a false sense of security before revealing his true, monstrous self. Initially, when one looks upon his true form, they may find him incredibly beautiful, standing several feet taller than his normal height of 5'11, with large gold wings protruding from his back. Paired with his blonde curls, and fair visage, one might think they are looking upon an Angel meant to help them. However, a closer look upon his form reveals many sets of eyes along his face, neck, arms and legs, instilling true terror in his victims before he devours their emotions.

muses to be added:

queen serenity i  ( sailor moon )

princess yue  ( atla ) *

* note : my yue is extremely canon-divergent in that when she sacrifices herself during the siege on the northern water tribe, rather than it killing her, the moon spirit takes back the blessing to restore its life. this results in several changes for yue. one, her hair reverts to its natural black colour, and two, she becomes more sickly and prone to bouts of weakness. however, this doesn’t stop her from choosing to travel with aang and co. once the fire nation is pushed back. after all, she can’t be expected to rule the northern water tribe without first experiencing the world beyond their borders.

Rereading Howls Moving Castle is so funny to me.

Sophie is so alone she starts to talk to things and later she channels her true self which has chronic unable to shut up disease so she just spouts out magic CONSTANTLY and induces everything around her with it.

There is a town full of people walking around with life altering magical hats. The chaos this could cause is immeasurable but nobody even knows. skdlakga

She picks a random stick from the site of the road and after half a day this thing becomes so powerful she is able to stop Howls Castle (which is powered by Calcifer canonically a powerful entity) in it's tracks by just saying stop. skflag

I mean can you imagine being calcifer just going about his day and suddenly a great force stops you and you are like wtf are we under attack?? is it the witch? or whoever howl is ghosting at that moment?? and in walks a not quite grandma who releases magic with every sentence like it's nothing wtf.

And if you take into account that a good whitch/magician is most likely abel to see/feel sophies magic (Afterall the witch of the waste awas able to notice the spell -or lack there off- in every hat in the hat shop.) Can you imagine how Howl must have felt living with Sophie? Everytime she opens her mouth -and like mentioned before, Sophie has a lot to say about many things- it must have felt like someone was throwing daggers around constantly EVERYWHERE. skdgfh

(And Howl is like yeah thats the girl of my dreams.)

I love this book so much. It brings me so much joy. (I'm not even at chapter 4)

deathless ♚ sentence meme

You will always fall in love, and it will always be like having your throat cut, just that fast.

You are going to break your promise. I understand.

You’re lonely too.

It will stop your breath, how cruel I can be.

I am a demanding creature. I am selfish and cruel and extremely unreasonable.

I am your servant.

I crawl at your feet; for before your love, your kisses, I am debased.

For you alone I will be weak.

I belong here, and you will not deny me.

I say these things, and the world listens.

I do not tolerate a world emptied of you. I have tried.

In the dark, I have pored over the loss of you like pale gold.

I will not let her speak because I love her, and when you love someone, you do not make them tell war stories.

I moved the earth and the water for you.

You will always run away with her.

You will always lose her.

You will always be a fool.

You will always be dead, in a city of ice, snow falling into your ear.

You have already done all of this and will do it again.

No one should be judged for loving more than they ought, only for loving not enough.

We look terrible to you, and severe, and you see our blood flying.

What we carry between us is hard-won, and we made it just as we wished it to be, just the color, just the shape.

There need never be any rules between us.

Let us be greedy together; let us hoard.

Do not leave me, swear that you will never leave me.

I am selfish. I am cruel. My mate cannot be less than I.

Sleep with fists closed and shoot straight.

I can’t abide a poor liar.

You look like a winter’s night. I could sleep inside the cold of you.

Oh, quit that. Blushing is for virgins and Christians.

Scold me; deny me. Tell me you want what you want and damn me forever. But don’t leave me.

Bad luck relies on absolutely perfect timing.

In his own country, Death can be kind.

What is the world but a boxing ring where fools and devils put up their fists?

Men die. It’s practically what they’re for.

I am no one; I am nothing.

Nothing in me was not made by you.

A revelation is always the end of something. It might even be cause for grief.

Just tell yourself a story that’ll satisfy you and pretend he told it.

Forever isn’t bright; it isn’t like that. Forever is cold and hard and final.

I savor bitterness - it is born of experience. It is the privilege of one who has truly lived.

If you want to kill yourself, do not use us as your knife.

What did I do wrong? Was I boring? Did I ignore you?

Don’t you dare speak to me like that.

I have worn nothing but blood and death for years.

I have fought all your battles for you, just as you asked me.

I have learned not to cry when I strangle a man.

I have learned to watch everything die.

I am not a little girl anymore, dazzled by your magic. It is my magic, now, too.

Are we not devils?

No one is now what they were before the war.

I have not seen you without your skin on.

Close up your head; your brain is getting loose.

We obsess. It’s in our nature.

I’ve a devil of a habit for being right.

In war you must always choose sides.

If you try to be a bridge laid down between them, they will tear you in half.

We are all dead. All equal. Broken and aimless and believing we are alive.

My old bones will follow yours soon enough.

It is better to be strong and cruel than to be fair.

I will see him with his skin off before I agree to fall in love.

After love, no one is what they were before.

I have survived, but I have not been spared.

In the space of one heartbeat to another I loved you and I was lost to you.

Frighten me, make me cry, only come back.

It’s not so bad, my darling. Being dead. It’s like being alive, only colder.

You’ll think it’s love, while he dines on your heart.

You will be so beautiful when you are old.

I cannot keep you and I cannot let you go.

You will live as you live in any world…with difficulty, and grief.

I look at you and it is like my throat being cut.

She said you’d come and I swore to eat your heart.

I still want to kiss you.

My heart is being cut in two. I cannot bear it.

What happens to anything beautiful?

I have to know, I have to or else you will just rule me until the end of everything because you know and I do not.

𝚉𝙴𝚁𝙾.

He turns, startled, only to be flooded with relief at the sight of another monster. Void eyes flutter, changing to a standard, if not rather dark, brown. He exhales a breath he hadn’t realized he’d been holding and laughs, wiping the excess blood from his face with a $300-dollar sleeve. 

          ❛  Maybe I was just hoping you’d come find me, Creep Queen.  ❜

She is always as beautiful as she is unsettling. Usually, demonic pride keeps him from fearing the standard vampire, but there’s something about her stare that gets under his skin. It’s rather alluring, the overwhelming sense of unease she inspires 

         ❛  Would you like a turn? We can share. He’s not all the way dead yet.  ❜

        𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐅𝐄𝐖 𝐏𝐄𝐎𝐏𝐋𝐄 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐉𝐀𝐍𝐄. Fewer still are people she actually somewhat likes. Zero seems to exist somewhere in the in-between. Not quite earning her respect, but neither earning her complete ire. Which is good for him — if she truly disliked him, he’d be dead.

        She almost smiles at the invitation; a barely imperceptible upturn of her lips, which adds to the overall eeriness of her beauty. It does not reach her eyes. There is but only a few steps between Jane and Zero’s victim, but it feels like an age before she finally approaches. She takes his chin in her hand and the man moans, half-fear and half-dead and far too weak to fight off what comes next as Jane caresses his jaw like one might a lover. She almost appears sympathetic. 

                    Almost.

        When she finally bites into the tender flesh of his neck, it is not with gentleness or kindness. it is hungry and cruel, with the aim to hurt.
