“ Tired of this body “

[meat-vendor]

In the face of demonic power, most heroes see death. W A R L O C K S see only opportunity. Dominance is their aim, and they have found a path to it in the dark arts. These voracious spellcasters summon demonic minions to fight beside them. At first, they command only the service of imps, but as a warlock’s knowledge grows, seductive succubi, loyal voidwalkers, and horrific felhunters join the dark sorcerer’s ranks to wreak havoc on anyone who stands in their master’s way.

OOC: Tired

My seasonal depression is in full swing and I have absolutely no drive to do anything with anyone, no matter how much I want too. I’m so damn lonely, and I wish someone would just try to initiate something with me for once, instead of me constantly seeking attention... I’m so tired of feeling this way.

18. Would society call your character a good guy or a bad guy? what would they say they are?

Answering this OOCly, Society would easily call Vynlein a bad guy; he cares only about a small number of people. Anyone else and he doesn’t care the outcomes, he doesn’t care about innocents, or civilians, and god help you if he hates you.He views himself as...a neutral party - not being good and not being bad; somewhere in the between, selfish if you would, a selfish guy.But even selfish guys can be bad guys.Thank you for the ask Anon <3 I love you.

26. What, in your character’s life, puts the most pressure on them?

“What puts on the most pressure?” He would scratch his chin deep in thought, “I guess I’ll chalk that up to what keeps me stressed the most.”He would tilt his head and look around before consolidating an answer, “Not disappointing those close to me. Magister Reloralis, Malice Blackmourn, Skou Mankratz; they all believe in me, and know I can do something with my life - so I’m trying to prove them right.”

A Deal with the Devil Pt. 3.

“No?” Saiko would repeat, his shoulders rising and falling as he erupted into a loud boisterous laughter, “No?!” He would move to hold his stomach, “Oh - Vynlein you don’t have a choice! She doesn’t have a choice. What do you think I was just going to be an eye forever? Oh my little devil - you’re still so Naive.”

Saiko would stand up straight, before pointing at Vynlein. “I believe our conversation is over - in fact, I have work to do; since she is compromised, it’s the perfect opportunity…” His words were sincere and unnerving.

“What do you plan on doing to her anyway!” He would cry out - answers all he wanted was answers. “Why - she’ll be the new Catalyst.” He would give Vynlein a small dismissive wave. It grew harder to focus on the man before him, panic set in he had to do something. “I’ll do it.” Saiko would hold up his hand. Everything seeming to stop. “I beg your pardon?” “I’ll be the Catalyst.” He said reaffirming what he had heard. Saiko would quickly narrow the distance, eyeing Vynlein up and down. The two would stare at each other silently. Before he would extend a hand towards Vynlein, a claw resting on his heart. His golden eyes fixating on Vynlein’s fel lit gaze, “Make the deal, Vynlein.” Fear, and doubt clung to the back of his brain like a tumour. Despite everything in his mind telling him ‘No.’ He would grab Saiko’s hand, taking a deep breath as he would drag the clawed digit over his heart. Making an ‘X’ over it. “I’ll be the Catalyst.” “Excellent~” Saiko would purr, branding the mark into his skin with the simple snap of his finger. Vynlein would lurch forward, letting out a small gasping cough. Cold sweat clung to his forehead as he looked around. He was on the floor of the Inn near the port of Dazar’alor. He would turn to notice Skou still asleep. ‘Let’s get to work - My little Devil.’ The words flooded into his head like a thick fog.

A Deal with the devil Pt. 2.

“I refuse to play your games Sai-”

Again he was caught off- this time by a loud exasperated sigh from the other male, “Listen, Surfal - If you are going to be rude, then you can be rude back home. I will not be disrespected in such a manor.” He would point a single finger at Vynlein, almost signaling that he would be sending him back.

“Dinoriel!” Vynlein would shout out quickly, causing the man across the way to smile deviously

“Was that so hard?” He would lower his finger, before resting his head against his fist. While tapping a finger against his knee, “Now - What is it that you wish to talk about..?” “What happened back there - how did she die? Why did you let her die!?” The young male would bark out loudly, having trouble keeping his resolve in the floating abyss.

Saiko would roll his eyes, “Because she’s a moron - completely useless.” He would rise onto his feet, heels clanking against the nothingness as he approached the warlock. Clawed digits raking against porcelain flesh, leaving behind raised rows. “I gave her the means to save herself you know - I funneled my own life force into that gremlin. Enough to grab the very healthstones that were with-in her grasp. But what does she do? She focuses on that Man; Orillidril was it-” The name made Vynlein’s ears pin flat against his head, as he would lick his teeth.

“Ah - we hate him don’t we. You know I even told her to take the stones, let the old man finally meet his maker. I told her that it would just be you and her again, think of the possibilities! But oh - she just had to save her walking bag of rotting trash.” he would lean down to face him dead on. “So of course she died! But I also knew you wouldn’t let her die - you clever fox, putting such rune work on her frame; who taught you that? I know it wasn’t me.” He ignored his remarks, but his mind focused on the bitter jealousy that consumed his mind. He was angry, and hurt.  “I know, oh I know…” He would coo, cupping Vynlein’s cheek, “It hurts doesn’t it - that bitter jealousy, it’s consuming you know. My poor child, let Dinoriel take the pain away.” His eyes would glow with intensity as it peered into Vynlein’s, the whispers returning to his mind. “I can easily take hold of her mind, I can take everything back to the way it was. I can fix your relationship, I can give you the space he desires, and better yet - I can get you your friend back.” “No!” he would bark out, shoving himself away. Vynlein shaking his head as he began to regret his decision on coming here in the first place.

A deal with the Devil Pt. 1

The night in Dazar’alor was uneasy - quiet, The young warlock stood in the doorway. His felt lit gaze fixated on the sleeping goblin. Her body mangled, bloodied, bruised; wrapped in linens and still resonating with the mixture of light and shadow magic that Evienne used to meld the flesh and bone.

Thoughts lingered in his head, it clung to his brain as he kept replaying over and over what had happened. She had the means to stay alive - so why didn’t she, what happened. There were questions he wanted answered that he couldn’t ask. Not to her, not right now. But there was someone else who was there, someone who could answer every question. Quiet footsteps as he approached the bed, he would loom over her figure before peeling back the eyepatch that covered her left eye. Pulling back the eyelid only to be greeted by a warm gold glow, the presence of this eye was unsettling but familiar. It locked onto his face, a voice resonated in his mind. “Ah, well if it isn’t my prized Pupil - to what do I owe the pleasure.” Brows would furrow, as he would look over her body. His mind twisting into a mixture of emotions, before resting back on that eye. “I need to talk to you.” “Ahhhh...well let’s go somewhere private- shall we?”

A shock would rush through his body, his limbs felt heavy, and would go limp as his body would fall onto the ground. Before his consciousness was pulled into a black void. This feeling was a mixture of euphoric dysphoria. He would float endlessly before his eyes rested on an ethereal of magics - it would coagulate into the figure he could recognize. The man would take a seat on nothing, his body holding grace and a sense of entitlement. A leg would be raised to drape over the other in a fashion that would radiate his cocksure demeanor. Clawed digits would graze over his cheek, to move stray hairs behind his ear as his eye would rest on Vynlein.

“Now, what is it that you wished to know minx.” The nickname made his ears pin back against his head, his suspicions confirmed with a simple sentence. “You don’t get to call me that Saiko-” “Uh-uh.” he would tsk, waving his finger, “Come on now Vynlein - do I mean nothing to you; have you forgotten what you used to call me...our relationship? Everything I taught you? I’m wounded! Your words are so cold... honestly, the audacity of it all.” He would scoff, running a hand through his hair.

😀 - A happy or upbeat song that I associate with my muse

This also took a really long time digging through my music to find a song to fit with Vynlein. Because I don’t associate any happy songs with Him, or upbeat...I guess this one is sort of upbeat; But here.Despicable - Grandson.https://youtu.be/xBG313ZsixA

[vynleinsoulflame]

🎵 - A song that reminds me of my muse’s backstory

Sorry about such a late reply I had to really dig deep into my music library to find the perfect song to capture Vynlein as a Character, and it’s stuck wavering between two. But for right now, it’s Echo - Jason Walker.https://youtu.be/AT7UQhWYWek

My muse will be accepting 10 personal questions. All answered with 100% honesty.
