Because I don’t wanna write still, I have decided to list the chaos quartet in strength. Then their abilities (without giving away a huge lore thing), and their weaknesses (w/o giving away a huge lore thing).
Blue is the weakest, obviously, as he has no unique powers, despite the fact he holds three other fucks in his mind, and can let them take charge. Another thing I just remembered, he has a higher resistance to being corrupted due to lore (laughs in “he still gets corrupted anyways lmao”)
His weaknesses are pretty much the same as a standard human, same with his strengths.
Spirit is next, he does have a slight buff in strength when he’s trapped in Hating Sim, but that’s only because he can use the game’s code/system to his advantage. Outside of that, he has the ability to stretch out his limbs far past their visual length and create two other, disfigured, spider-like limbs from his back that he can also shoot out far past their visual length. He can alter his form every now and then to permanently be something different (I.e, when he switches from his “pink blob” form to a “pink Senpai” form to his final “pink Sebastian” form), though it takes a lot out of him- hence why he can’t do it frequently. He can float, though it’s only when he trades his legs for a “ghost-like” whisp. Also, as a spirit, he can possess people and objects- however that is practically void as he is permanently stuck with Blue.
His main weakness is the Ghostbusters. All jokes aside, inside the Hating Sim, Glitch is the only being who is stronger than him, due to Glitch’s advanced abilities with code, and just his corrupted nature. Outside of Hating Sim, anyone who is faster and stronger than him, or just flat-out a demon or Angel, is stronger than him. So yes, Sophie is stronger than Spirit. Besides that, he doesn’t really have any weaknesses that isn’t a joke or just plain obvious. He’s dead, he can do that.
C is next. As a being of pure corruption, he can corrupt others through either physical contact (the primary way) or by insulting, berating, or just generally talking down to someone (secondary/assist way). He can also create/use illusions to assist in corrupting someone as it lowers others morale- depending on what illusions he creates. He- similar to Corrupted Sophie- can extend four “tentacle-like” limbs from his back. Something unique to him is being able to “crack” living beings until they explode. Essentially- if he has any sort of physical contact with someone, he can start making their skin “crack” like glass, allowing a black substance to leak from it, before the person shatters once they crack enough. It is stupidly painful and does leave scars if C is unsuccessful in killing them or he does it as torture.
He can regenerate/rapid heal*. The asterisk is because- if you noticed in recent art I’ve drawn of him, he noticeably has a missing eye and hand. He- and other corrupted beings- can heal minor injuries. Any life-threatening or generally major injuries can’t be healed without completely draining the corruption from their being (for example- y’all know how CPico has a blood splatter on the side of his head that suggests he tried to kill himself via gun? Minor spoiler for this, but he does manage to do so when against Darnell and Nene, but as he shot on the corrupted side of his head, the corruption on him instinctively tried to heal it, and did- saving him and bringing him back- though it resulted in him becoming uncorrupted). C can also hide in the shadows, due to his dark body. He can also see in the dark. He also has a heightened sense of strength and speed.
Now for weaknesses. All corrupted beings are weak to fire. Why? Idk I just felt like it. All corrupted beings are also weak to light-based powers, like Angelic powers, especially because they are demonic in nature. Positivity and happy shit does weaken him, because the whole “lmao ur trash” shit he does to corrupt others (this weakness is also the same for other corrupted beings). Bright lights shone directly into his face/eyes hurts because of his night vision.
Lastly is Soul. He is the strongest of the four, and by far the most dangerous. I am not joking. There are a lot of things that Soul can do that I can’t talk about right now, due to
it will take *literally the whole fucking fanfic* before I can talk about it. Though- I might talk about it earlier if I feel like it’s a good time- though it will be a lot later than y’all are gonna want lmao.
With that out of the way, here are the very few things Soul can do that I CAN talk about.
Soul can manipulate other’s emotions *ever so slightly*, see in the dark, teleport to places he can see (he can also teleport others, but he has to go with them and touch them), fly, and dim his glow to hide in shadows. He also has a very heightened sense of strength and speed, which makes him physically stronger and faster than Spirit and C as well.
His weaknesses are being in confined spaces, as being unable to see the outside of where he’s stuck, and/or having no space to move, he can’t teleport outside of where he’s stuck. Bright lights shone directly in his face/eyes because of his night vision. He *does* have a weakness to light magic like angelic powers too.
And that’s it for them. I like explaining the goobers and how they function. I’m gonna be honest, I’m both excited and nervous about how y’all will react to the hidden lore stuff about Blue, Soul, and even Pico. *Especially* Soul since he actually is a combination of *three-ish* hidden lore things.
I’ll try to hurry the fuck up with this arc and get to the corruption segment (which will have a slightly faster pacing compared to this arc) so that I can write Soul and Spirit and develop them more as characters :p
I need to actually write and get past Hating Sim’s final chapter, the Winter chapters, and *maybe* week 7’s chapters, tho I’m thinking about omitting that week from this fic due to the fact idk how to write it across *three chapters-*. Weekend 1 won’t be included at all due to how I’ve written Nene and Darnell’s relationship to Blue being vastly different from canon them, plus this arc is solely in Blue’s POV.
