Silhouette Reveal (Updated)

Ok, at this point I'm not holding any information (apart from developing content) to myself...


Do note things are subject to change, but please enjoy this writing.


This is just a compiled box of current thoughts on the group (B-SiVA).


Primary Thoughts


Drifting more and more down this hole I've gotten deeper into developing the main cast. Confirming the current direction, the main protagonist is still Silen. The big anchoring side character is Jacky; the notable (by his deeds) side character, Morely; and a highly disruptive side character, Lucial.


These guys have gotten a lot of development these past months, but now, I think it's time to right down what I've been pondering. I'll be going through each character describing them or add, and think up of what arcs they could have later on.


The Group Overall


Four people, one director from the shadows, these guys have and use 'demonic items', possessed objects imbued of a demon soul. One thing that has a huge plot hole for the team is how they get their experience in being such efficient killers. By cannon they get those professional skills from making the covenant deals with the demons they were partnered with. Agility, dexterity, endurance, it's all they need to be in Vicktor's range of interest for his personal goals of having a special task force during Xzuria's inner most conflict, infested era, "The Gang Wars".


Silen Perpasi Vail


Started off as a simple mute character that has a clear role of "do what he's told". Partnered with his vocal buddy 'the talking hat'. He lives in an apartment complex that's 3 stories tall, his home snug and tight that provides 2 bedrooms.


But there are a few things that are being added in the direction of his story.


He is hundred percent a workaholic, all that he does is seamlessly endless work, finished behind the scenes of the public's eyes. Barely does he have to meet people because of his paranoia of the "big issue" (angels). It's of course his reasoning to keep going until he's got nothing left to do then relax, unless Vicktor tells him to chill and vay-cay (which on how he deals with it troubles him). All the traits Silen holds relate back to the hat, once a 'lone detective vigilante' with dark and bleak choices, running, until he couldn't run amuck no longer.


I want the two as well to have these short described jumps in their adventures:


1. Build of the workload

2. Growing hatred of their existence

3. Reconciliation of the partnership

4. New confidence

5. Romance

6. An unannounced tragedy

7. Wide search

8. Tensions between lovers

9. Rodent trap

10. A farewell


Afterwards the epilogue leads to the continuation of his legacy to his now widowed partner, having a new blinded initiative leading her to present SiVA.


Jacky Caedis Velvet


Developed as the close, best friend for Silen and the falsely acclaimed mass murderer, 'The Velvet Genocide'. At first he was shallow as a character, simply because he was just emotionally detached by his contract rules, and that everyone saw him as a monster due to his stained reputation.


By this point he's gotten more juicy content behind him this year.


The 'Big Brother Figure' is what he tries keeping as his mental support from feeling separated in the social world. Silen, Lucial, Morely, and even Vicktor, are the outlets for Jacky's true intentions and emotions to be expressed without feeling "possible" betrayal. Furthering this, he has deep care in helping Lucial because of her uncontrollable, erratic behaviour that she has no power over. Silen being his equivalent brother, he always gives him a call almost every day. And Morely having more stress-fully occupied days, Jacky watches Morely's foster child more often than he does.


It's this huge connection that gives Jacky this opening revelation that he's not inhuman or psychotic. Plus gives me, as the storyteller, to use Jacky as a huge plot device. He'll be a huge factor for the lives of his "siblings", the recourse, redirection of fates, and the one who gives the send-off for the series as a whole.


Morely J. Russell


The proclaimed Beastar : ;) ;) : in the country of Xzuria and father of a foster child, Alc-Lou, he's my lovely canine that ends in a burnout from the spotlight of Xzuria's public side of things. Slowly splitting away from his son, due to work, being somewhere he was never meant be.


Of course the father is departing farther and father away, but I also want him to express this pain during these events. He's got this thing with this ruthless, prominent mafia family the "Cappy family", a family of literal capybaras. Their efforts and his go more and more back forth like rivals. And to properly peice it together on how they conflict at first contact, it has to do with how the mafia family is affecting other people outside of the gang war.


Lucial (Dame?)


She's the character that I believe is given the least amount of lore and meat. So where to start... well she's got 10 personalities, so, physically she portrays with multi personality disorder. No control over her body as basically the 5 halve of the rings use her body in non-consented actions, and all she can do is watch or retreat back to her mind and thoughts. It's also the reason on how she's got the getup, the chaotic personalities, and the body count that she struts by with no remorse, because she will never get the chance to breathe in freedom.


And so she's the wildcard for Vicktor, very unreliable, but still a useful powerhouse when called on. So Vicktor usually wants Jacky to keep her in check, and previously stated he goes beyond in just watching her. Knowing the fact she's getting more unstable by the days she needs someone like Jacky to help her, because of stuff like tearing people apart and other not so sanely things, her innocence is rotting. So for the most part she lives secluded in a house in the thick woods, where she renovated it with stolen goods so the kill count can't get any higher.
