Thanks again to Mr. Sanguine for the awesome drawing!
"...your words may come back to harm you..."
I'd like to try to develop my new baddie,
Noctuis, some more, so please feel free to ask him some questions. You can ask as many as you'd like
Noctuis is an infectious owl much like
Iugulare, and is featured in
Ebony and Ivory, both the
story and
role play parts of the series.
Ask away
For my reference, Noctuis speaks in
#9AFEFF
Hmm... Noctuis, if you are
Noctuis, if you are playing a game with someone you know is beating you fairly, would you rather cheat to win or accept honorable defeat?
If you had to describe yourself in one word, what would it be?
Anjali - Noctuis, if you are
Noctuis, if you are playing a game with someone you know is beating you fairly, would you rather cheat to win or accept honorable defeat?
"There is no honor in defeat. You either win, or you die. And quite personally, I would much rather win than die. Therefore, the answer to this question is quite simple - if cheating in this game will secure my victory, then I have no shame in cheating.
Losing to an opponent is in no way honorable."
If you had to describe yourself in one word, what would it be?
"In one word? Perfection. There is simply no other words to describe that which is perfect."
Mister Owl, how many licks
Sorry, Quad, I had to do it! xD
*srsface*
And what's your favorite kind of tree? Why?
Aivilo - XD!!! I'll give it
XD!!! I'll give it a shot hehe!
Mister Owl, how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?
"Just one, because my virus will get to the center very quickly without any more 'licking'."
And what's your favorite kind of tree? Why?
"I know very little about the trees of this world. I've only been here for a short time. However, I will say that of the trees I have seen, pine trees are my favorite, as the poor owl I devoured was sitting on a pine tree when I first arrived here."
Why is your infection white
Why did you choose the form of an owl? Did you simply choose it for convenience or did you like the form? Can you take any form you want, if you could access the body for it?
Do the residents of your planet all have different effects for their infection? Are there variations in the symptoms and effects of each virus?
Ocean - Why is your
Why is your infection white instead of black?
"The color of my body is simply an indicator of where I lived on our home planet. It is similar to the different 'races' or 'cultures' of your world. My infection is white because I lived closer to the poles of Venterm, where Iugulare lived closer to the equator and thus was exposed to more sunlight than I was. Therefore, her infection is black. There are other infectious colors as well, such as blue, green, khaki, and pink, and each designates a different culture on Venterm. We cannot control the color of our bodies just like you cannot control the color of your fur...well...not using magic I mean."
Why did you choose the form of an owl? Did you simply choose it for convenience or did you like the form? Can you take any form you want, if you could access the body for it?
"Simply convenience. There was an owl close to where I landed, so I devoured it and took it's form. Iugulare did the same when she arrived here. We can choose other forms only if we have had physical contact with another animal. I could take the form of a deer if I wished since I have infected deer, but I simply choose not to."
Do the residents of your planet all have different effects for their infection? Are there variations in the symptoms and effects of each virus?
"There are minor effects of the infection, mostly involving sunlight resistance. The lighter shades of infection such as white and pink can reflect more sunlight, so they can roam for longer amounts of time than those with darker shades. The darker Goxi, however, can regrow their infection quicker than those of us with lighter shades. Considering the animals we infect, the symptoms are the same. The only difference is the recovery and resistance effects I just described."
"I have all but an army
Why should I choose to help you?"
"Why do you wish to fight
Mr. Sanguine - "I have all
"I have all but an army behind me.
Why should I choose to help you?"
"Why should you choose to help me? Why would you choose not to help me? Are you foolish enough to believe that awful excuse of a Goxi, Iugulare, is better than me? Do you really believe that she has a chance against perfection itself? I do not need a reason for why you should help me, it is as simple as the strong overtaking the weak. Do you wish to join the losing side? Do you wish to beg for death so easily?
I'll tell you this: Fight for me, and your rewards will be eternal. If you choose to side with the stoat, then when my infection reaches you, I will personally make you suffer a long, cruel death."
Bluejay17 -
"Why do you wish to fight Iugulare?"
"Iugulare and I have a history. All murderers on Venterm know each other. As a matter of fact, she stole my idea of taking over the planet. Therefore, I wish to fight her because she is a thief as well as a murderer. And besides, I have the insatiable desire to feel her writhe to death inside of me."
"... You two are both
But... I must ask this: Venterm... will you tell me about it? What you think of it opposed to all that guide-book stuff."
Bluejay17 - "... You two are
"... You two are both monsters! I swear to the Gods that you will have my corpse before I let you do that.
But... I must ask this: Venterm... will you tell me about it? What you think of it opposed to all that guide-book stuff."
"Quick to judge, I see. Well, you offer your corpse so freely to me, I may just have to take it from you.
Ah yes...Venterm...the clouded planet. My species comes from that miserable place. Some Goxi lived underground, others braved the surface. We were fortunate that our star was a weak burner, or else our species would not have survived. The planet is mostly rocky, aside from the architecture and underground homes. Those miserable fools wish to learn and study the universe and all of it's creatures, without even considering the potential of our infectious bodies. They choose to remain peaceful and subdue their desires to infect and destroy. But I have surpassed this, and would gladly take any lives that dare challenge me. Those scientific fools think this is cruel. They have no idea what great power our species has.
If only they opened their eyes and understood our domination of the universe...your little planet would never survive a horde of Goxi warriors. You would be overrun easily, your weak ripped apart, your young devoured, your old tortured. Your strong...humiliated...when they fail to protect you."
