Seeking a character to slowly corrupt Schrödinger, a nine-almost-ten-year-old with an optimistic view on life and a liking towards violence. He was created with the intent of one day becoming a bad guy.

I have had a fascination with antagonists for a while, and I've finally got my first antagonist-focused character (Dire-Straits)! Though Dire is perfectly capable of influencing Schrödinger in the worst ways possible, I want to explore all my options.

Are there any villainous characters willing to participate? I've no threads for this as of yet, but please hit me up here or my plotter (a mess, a mess I must warn thee) if you're interested! There's currently no clear path towards how the other would influence Schrödinger, this is also a brainstorming thing;;

Any other particulars: preferably a character who is comfortable with violence and/or who can spin believable lies~~

Leeeeemme seeee

Jax: My first choice. Jax could unintentionally lead your character to a life of villainy. He's not only close in age to your character, but he doesn't understand society and follows more the law of tooth and claw. The strong take from the weak so long as the weak aren't their family. It's very much a neutral or lawful evil type mindset.

I'd find this interesting because I think if this kid got into horrible things and Jax ever gained more morality, he'd be torn between having probably gotten close to this kid and now he'd feel terrible that it was his influence that brought this kid to this lifestyle.

Kylar: Kylar would certainly be the easiest. He's a villain and he'd love to have a tiny sidekick if he could help it. His ambitions come and go, and mostly he follows his whims. He's a predator through and through.

Enzo: My last choice because it would be a little more difficult. Lorenzo was a mobster and he's very proud of that fact. He's 100% lawful evil, but at the same time, he wouldn't knowingly make a supervillain. He is ruthless and his advice would be along those lines. He doesn't particularly like people — or children, though.

oh

oh my.

They all sound so good, but I'll agree that Enzo might be a little too hard for Schrödinger to handle.

I really like's Jax's idea, as it could further develop both characters (though in different directions) and give Schrödinger a peer that he could relate with. Jax's law of the jungle mentality would definitely spark some deep instinct in the eldritch. Depending on what Jax does with Schrödinger, the latter would definitely become more apathetic and openly violent. He'd become more okay with hurting others, just because, and will lose that thread of morality that prevented him from doing so in the past.

(And oh yes Schrödinger could do some awful things just to show Jax how good – of a friend? ally? – he's become~):plottingllama:

Kylar is also a great option. I can really see him being able to influence Schrödinger easily, as the boy already maybe trusts his elders way too much. Kylar would also be able to spin great lies to feed to him, and maybe even help train him to become more loving towards blood, guts, and gore. While Jax would unintentionally aid the corruption of Schrödinger, Cyanide could lead him into the world of villainy. (But the boy might need the killer to hold his hand for a while...)

I'm really not sure between the two, as they both sound really good! Can we try to flesh out a little more of each possibility?? It's so haaard to decide with such great options ;-;

Heehee! Sure!

I mean, if you wanted, he could befriend both and while Jax unintentionally pushes him toward this path, Kylar sees what's happening (and has an Eldritch brother to boot, played by Max!!) he'd more or less sweep the kid under his wing and make a project out of it.

Oh that sounds great! A double whammy against poor Schrödinger (he'd have no idea what's going on lol) and a clear path towards moral devastation~~

This may be a bit of a gun-jump, but are there any particular events the threads should cover? A murder, perhaps? (ah but I'm not eighteen yet so nothing super explicit?? *cries* even though that would have so okay and rather helpful in this case T~T) How should they meet? Why would they meet? Two threads, one for Jax, and another for Kylar?

(ack I have to sleep, so I don't really have any great ideas at the moment;; let me get a better answer to you tomorrow morning! I'll be up early mostly since I'M SO EXCITED THIS IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING)
