Also a little bit of an interest check.
This might take a lot of planning or not and it might be super early for this —-

But this is gonna be some word vomit

—-​

Cordelia Rosales.
My new child and a ticking time bomb always trying to restart the timer.​

One of her major problems is her ability to control Dark Light. Dark Light is literally all destructive parts of light - it destroys anything and harms anyone it touches. To keep it under control in herself and especially in use, she has to keep herself under control and with a level head.​
But what if, she snapped?

It consumes all that it touches and destroys its user if they are not careful. So what if Cordelia was hit with such a giant curve ball that she couldn't control herself? The stress of an event plus school and family just destroys her and gets her into a mental state of chaos. Her ability is no longer under control and starts to consume whatever is around her and attacking those who get too close. But also it started to consume her - eat her mind and body from the inside out so now she not only has a mental toll but she's getting weaker. But because she's too far lost in her mind and she can't gain control because of the varying types of exhaustion? Maybe she needs to be isolated. Maybe someone needs to help her.

Or maybe someone wanted her to get this way, or wanted to use it to their advantage?

Someone who flipped the script on her, manipulating her mental processes and getting her on their side. Someone who knew she was dangerous if triggered. Someone who wanted to get something out of the demon. To use her and her abilities or maybe just cause some chaos because they wanted to? Someone who had a plan in this whole time and was just waiting until she was strong enough to cause enough destruction or maybe they were manipulating her since her arrival?

It was just an idea that I had that stemmed from when she was first created.
This is half an interest check to see if anyone would be willing since this would offer a good chance for her to get some development in personality and powers as well as give people a chance for relationships and their own characters.
Half a wanted ad to see if anyone wanted to help.

A friend said it was a good idea and I decided to post it. :arnold:

So I'm pretty late responding to wanted adds and I'll generally be slow on SA until my exams are over on the 25th, but this sounds pretty much like it fulfills the wanted ad i was about to make for my character, Kaz.

Kaz is a faerie that needs to feed on misery in order to survive, but the best misery is the kind where he is indirectly involved.

It wouldn't be unlike him to try to start to become friends with Cordelia, feel like he is starting to get too close and panic, and then start to manipulate her in small subtle ways until she goes off. He sabotages most of the relationships he's in and I could see him attempting this with Cordelia.


If it's not quite what you're looking for, I understand completely but figured I'd offer just in case. :)

Actually I think that's great. It's almost exactly what I had in mind for this. We need more people to say their interest to get the ball rolling - but thank you very much for being willing to participate!

If you're still interested in potential plots, I think Hedi could prove interesting. He's a demon himself, one with a pretty decent knowledge of the otherworldly, and would definitely be interested in a young demon with strange powers, for whatever purpose he could come up with. Shoot me a message if you think we can work out some kinda plot.

*slides Jason forward* This little guy would love to pull her levers, trick her into causing destruction. If he makes her manages to manipulate her then he's won without ever using his blades.
