Sit Down & Talk

Pectoris is a small city forgotten in the English history of the 19th Century. Those that know of it would probably utter the words "conspiracy" or comment that it is a fool's tale. The truth is Pectoris was a very real place but the deeds done there were horrific enough for "divine intervention" and no one ever spoke of it again. That is except for the few who permitted their names to become tarnished with the label "insane". Why don't you come sit down by the fire and hear the tale passed down from my crazy, so many greats grandfather. The tale of Pectoris manor.

What Have You Done?

Baron Vladimir Faust was the youngest son to a wealthy English family although he was the black sheep in the brood; he still inherited quite a sum of money. He used that to have a manor built in a small city that was hardly visited having nothing of value to trade and not existing on any route between larger cities. But this was how Vladimir liked it for a secluded city meant secrecy. See, Lord Faust was a man of strange curiosity that would have religion banging on his door had they ever realized exactly what he intended to do in that mansion. But his family was happy to be rid of him and anyone else that happened upon the place would be of lower class and not able to demand entrance. The few times his family would visit for social graces would be with warning granting him the chance to hide his sick experiments.

These experiments were that of death, reanimation, the after life and all things dark and boding. He dealt with devils, demons, witches and what one might call "evil". Rumours that the place was haunted started quickly after strange noises in the night. The fact that the city's new rich man was never seen did not help any as gossip turned to the "Baron Devil", served by his demon butler, the only "human" to ever be seen walking through those cold iron gates.

After a time Vladimir planned to continue his experiments but no longer on the dead. This is where our story starts, at the beginning of the end, the tale of how nightmares broke free of the manor and then destroyed themselves along with the town they resided in.

Instructions

I do not think this is really necessary considering but just in case here are the rules in their simplest form:

Gaia Rules and No Name Rules as we all know.

This role-play is specifically designed as a 1x1 for Caelum and I so no posting for others. Sorry if that bothers anyone.

William Will Liam Anders
User Image

The Experiment: Possessed Doll

Age: Physically early twenties but actually forty-three

Records: In life, William Anders was the second youngest son to a wealthy and large family. He grew up almost separate from his parents, thinking his nursemaid was his mother for a time. He learnt as he grew older that he had little hope of inheriting anything of much importance from the family name having five older brothers to beat him to it. As such he was given a fair few freedoms in his choices as long as they did not shame the family name. One such choice was falling in love with a woman and given the opportunity to propose to her. Unfortunately this did not go down well, having bad luck on the day everything went wrong. From the rejection of his proposal to the insistent bad weather. It was while he was brooding in the rain that his worse luck came to him. Slipping on a balcony of sorts that topped his peaceful city and provided an excellent view, it also provided enough height to kill him from the fall.

Observing his family and his funeral proved bitter to him as only his younger sister seemed to care that much about his death while others appeared for social graces. This ate away at William's spirit long enough for his mind to split in half. Will; benevolent and Liam; malevolent. To avoid spooking his family further with Liam's not so kind supernatural gestures, Will began to wander until eventually he came upon Pectoris. The strangeness of the manor caught his attention and soon he had learnt of Vladimir's experiments. With some effort, he made his presence known to the baron who soon built a body for the intrigued ghost. It took a long time for William to master control of the doll but now he lives again, so to speak.

Notes: William has two sides to his personality due to a corruption of his soul but there is no way to tell when each side of the coin will be in control. His switch in personality is sporadic making him a time bomb without its countdown screen.

Will; his light side is a polite man that enjoys intelligent conversation and drinking tea. He dedicates his unlife to serving Vladimir as his butler. Studying tomes, cleaning the manor, serving meals and on occasion, fetching things from the village. He is not beyond talking to people should they approach him though few do.

Liam; the dark side of William is not the complete opposite of Will. He is just as intelligent though becomes arrogant because of this and feels conversation with others is beneath him. As for drinking tea, well, he is more likely to poor the hot drink on one person, throw the cup at another then start attacking everyone else and causing general chaos. He dedicates his undeath to the misfortune of others making life difficult on Will should he gain control when out of the manor.

Instructions: Will: ♥Books ♥Tea ♥Knowledge xCoffee xRings xBalconies
Liam: ♥Sharp Things ♥Violence ♥Suffering xBalconies xPeople xImmobility
