I love all of that! One small question, would sigils work on people too? Like how Griffin has sigils on him in Not Dead Yet? Because, let's be real here, the arena totally has some on Aries if so. Also, also- I hope you're ready for how Aries would've turned out without Cal or anyone... Man, I may have to bring in Simon or Anna. Or both. Haha.

yayyyyyyy! :D I would think that they would not work on people, but if you want, there is something the queen will use that basically works as a shock collar? haha not Cal actually getting to a somewhat good spot in his life while Aries spirals causing Cal to feel an immense amount of guilt while the Aries he knew is now completely gone- haha funny. ooo maybe!! I don't think I have met them! I will say, there are only six open roles at the moment (not including the royal guard, royal mage, or other)

Oooo, yes please. Give the shock collar over to me, I promise you won't regret it lol - Eh. Aries is kind of in a double edged spot at the moment, I'd assume. He's survived the arena and been such a good tool that he's basically a higher up now. Now it's his turn to ruin people's lives while still having his ruined too. It's complicated. Extremely complicated. Simon and Anna, also known as Horkos and Enyo, are two twins (brother and sister) who also are at the arena. They were there as fighters when Aries first showed up and have aldo climbed the ranks. Simon's more of a strategist liar and Anna's more of a brute force, burn these bitches down fighter. (Simon's main themesong is totally 'Cause I'm A Liar' and Anna's main themesong would be a more metal version of 'Killing Harmony' or 'Wildfire') I'd only bring in one of them if I bring them in at all.

hahaha enjoy then!~ Cal going to be feeling so guilty because they finally managed to get out of two yucky relationships (both with characters you know or I have mentioned briefly) but has basically been unable to see their friend get progressively worse! these two rekindling though will absolutely be a highlight for me no matter how genuinely heartbreaking it will be. Ooooo I love their descriptions! I could totally see that, if Anna tried to turn herself around, she would be great as a royal guard for the queen while I could see Simon getting a special variant of the black lips plague >:)

Yayyyy! Aries now having to deal with that too >:3 - Oh, fun little mention, he's Khorne. Like, through and through. Instead of introducing himself as Aries, he introduces himself as Gunnar but fully uses Khorne as his name in the paragraphs. (Tell me if you remember what both of those names are) - Oooo, what's the special variant?

wait are Aries and Cal going to be neck/wrist scar buddies then?? :0 i remember a little bit? like, doesnt this all mean that he associates more with the arena rather than himself because Khorne was his arena name because it meant blood god or something? basically, if the person is acesexual, has been exposed to Maua's devotees' magic, or the person controlling the virus sees them as valuable, they will have a special variant of the plague where their lips dont change color, they experience less lust, they are more loyal to whoever is controlling the illness, and have much more cognitive capabilities in order to control and instruct the other plague carriers as well as entice more influencial and important people.

Aries already was lol He already had scars from collars that on his neck and wrists (ankles shush). - Yep, Khorne is his name in the arena. Gunnar was the name that the 'guardians' gave him while in public. Horkos and Enyo are Simon and Anna's arena names, by the way. Oh, that reminds me. You don't actually know the main, important people from the arena... Want some nekas of them all real quick? Oh, also, how realistic/fantasy is this? Like, eye color and hair color and whatnot wise? - That would, work incredibly well with Simon (Horkos as Aries mostly calls him nowadays)

Damn. why do I feel like Cal would try to do their thing of joking about being scar buddies to cope with their own trauma only that Aries took it seriously and now keeps calling Cal is scar buddy ahhh makes sense. the Gunnar name makes sense now that I think about it. absolutlely. I am heading to sleep now but I would love to look in the morning. it is surprisingly realistic hair and eye color wise so unless your character is a demi-deity, they will have to use either hair dye or colored/shaded glasses. I knew it would work well with him! now we might already have two of these variants! :D (also how would you prefer I refer to him?)

No clue, as Aries is more likely to not do that nowadays actually. He'll actually be pretty distant. He's basically the arena's perfectly sharpened tool. And he's learned to pride himself on it. (That being said, he's going to be referring to himself as an item with it pronouns a lot more often, if that was even possible) - Ah- Should Aries not have his deep red hair then? Figure I can only play that off as natural for so long lol Also, demi-deity? We have those? (Imagine if Aries was one and that's how he managed to survive the arena. Anna totally left and became a royal guard, by the way. Simon is 100% salty about that.) I'll get you the nekas relatively soon. For now, here are the names and/or titles that Aries/Khorne knows them by. Simon/Horkos. Anna/Enyo. The Doctor. The Boss. - Well, Simon refers to himself as Simon still. Without Anna around, he's quit fighting more so and now just helps around the arena. A public face, a liar, a close henchman to The Boss, basically. Helping to make sure that no one of higher status steps out of line. This does include Aries, so I can totally see that he might've been sent along with him to make sure he stays in line. (Anna was a Chaotic Good, Simon was a Lawful Neutral at best with his own personal code)

Cal will be absolutely confused why Aries would refer to himself like that and they would keep correcting him and using positive reinforcement. But also goddamn this is sad because originally I was going to have Cal run and hug him but now I feel like Cal would stop the moment they see just how distant Aries seems. Maybe you can either say one of his distant family members was a Demi-deity (if you don't want to make Aries one that is), Cal helped him dye it when they were younger and know Aries still dyes it, or you could just say it's natural. yep! Ling’s are most common with Centurio and Akhet falling in a distant second place. (Also, if Anna becomes a guard, she might become the Queen's personal guard unless she is from Fidelis.) oh gosh now I am super concerned about the boss and doctor. Cal is going to be throwing the dirtiest of looks at Simon the whole time if he shows his face. Second they see that man, Cal will just become the bitchiest, sassiest person in Ployavas. Also why do I see that one Simon is infected, he will spare people who don't want to fight in the arena so long as they agree to get kissed (and just spread the disease more.)
