I haven't decided if he has an apartment or a house yet, but I would think the windows are barred with like, iron gates if you know what I mean.

Damn. If I couldn't actually escape Viktor I was hoping to just... jump.

If they were in the same universe Dorian would be thrilled to have a voluntary companion.

They are.

Can we have some fun facts about Viktor? 👀 And maybe Adonis and Samir too? I just wanted to get to know them better

Viktor facts

His day job is being a museum tour guide.

He exclusively drinks earl gray tea. He hates coffee and soda.

He has ear piercings, but he often forgets to put them in.

As a side hustle, he makes jewelry. Usually earrings and necklaces. Probably does little small business fairs.

When you met him, he wore glasses. You don't see him put in contacts anymore.

He dyes his hair himself.

His favorite food is ramen. With an egg in it, of course.

Viktor spends a lot of his time in coffee shops if he isn't home, even if he just gets a tea. He really love the cozy atmosphere and being in the company of others, even if he pretends he doesn't.

Adonis facts

Their favorite fruit is strawberries.

A long time ago, they were in a folk rock band. It was just a local thing, and it consisted mostly of covers.

They refuse to take their glasses off. Part of it is a sensory thing, part of it is an underlying reason.

They have mastered every bird call, and sometimes, they prank birds by mimicking their mating calls.

Secretly, they have wheels in their boots. It's rollin' time if need be.

Adonis is a very good swimmer! And they love catching fish. Sometimes by hand.

Their favorite activity is scaring children.

Samir facts

Some demons take the forms of animals. Samir's is a spider.

He taught Micah how to do her hair.

He has a placid pool deep within the tunnels underneath the sand. He will sit in the waters, laying on his back, staring at the carvings of the history of the world that he made with his own hands. They hurt now. He sticks to weaving. That does not hurt.

He doesn't like to talk, but they have the deepest yet softest voice of any AWB characters so far.

Samir loves to color. He would love those mandala coloring books.

He loves dice games. Someone's given him a very expensive, very valuable set of black dice with golden lettering.

When not weaving the stories of the world through their nightmares, Samir likes to write poetry.

Does Viktor have a nice high window? No reason...

I haven't decided if he has an apartment or a house yet, but I would think the windows are barred with like, iron gates if you know what I mean.

The idea that a yan can just... Get bored of you is a little horrifying and heartbreaking, I'll definitely be playing/reading whatever you put Viktor in <3

Hehe thank you! There's two angles I was considering with it. Nevertheless, the game opens the same: you've been stuck in this man's apartment/home for 6 months. You notice everything seems less full of heart. He says he admits, he's no longer infatuated with you like he once was. He can't just let you go. You'll go to the police, let something slip eventually. But he doesn't want to kill you. He doesn't hate you that much. So you're just...stuck. Forever.

So, either it's a game about this unbearable, sad cycle. go through every day.

or it's about a deal. he falls in love with someone else. he'll let you go, as long as you help him manipulate and capture his new favorite. and maybe you can convince him to keep you.

Oh, Viktor doesn't look happy.

Was it something the player did? Or the novelty just wore off.

the novelty wore off! he's a pretty blunt person to be honest as well.

[artwithoutblood]

people often think i am cruel. that i purposefully take pleasure in what i do. i have only survived so long because i have learned from each person i have killed and absorbed. their words sing into my skin, into my muscle, they whisper through my markings and remind me that we are built on the interactions we have with human beings. and through that, i have learned that everything is transactional. knowing this is the only reason i have lived so long in this form without intimidation or harm. get too close and the knife is against your neck. and even if you like it, the pain of which is given in exchange for your blood, it will be used against you until it cuts every artery and you are left with a heap of flesh and no structure left.

#just thinking about the silas/aeron game again #char: aeron #char: silas #referenced cosplayers for this....

[artwithoutblood]

ended up not doing this jam but i'm still going to use him at some point. his name is viktor.

deciding last minute to make something for the stained red yandere jam. this character doesn't have a name yet, but he's a yandere who kidnapped you a few months ago who's tired/fallen out of love with you but it would be bad to let you go so it's just really awkward now. might change his vest.

Are you so deranged that you're using me as a teether?

#silas ask

[artwithoutblood]

I want Dorian to take care of me forever. Keep me safe in his arms. I don't want anyone else. I wish I could braid his hair and give him kisses everywhere

You can, perhaps, if you follow the wind as it swoops up the ash, and you'll find yourself at his Cathedral, sitting in a bathtub with candles. he's only sitting there, watching graveyards from the window. there is no need for curtains for privacy. he is alone out here. waiting.

Greetings! I'm sure somebody already asked that but I scrolled through your Tumblr and couldn't find it 😭 so if it's not a bother, could I know what is the meaning of the title of game 10:16?

It's a Bible verse in the Book of Matthew! Dorian recites this in the game.

#dorian ask #10:16 ask

[artwithoutblood]

steam took 10:16's downloads down again. i am going to attempt to reinstate it one more time, if it'll even let me, but if they take down the ability to download it ONE MORE TIME after this, i am delisting the game completely from their platform and never using steam again.

i am sorry. i do not know why this is happening, and if i did, i wouldn't have let it happen again.

Hello! I was thinking, if in the awb universe we have vampires, merfolks/sirens and nymphs (I remember you referring to Adonis that way! Sorry if i'm mistaken), can you imagine other species that could exist in it? Like fairies, dragons, elfs, etc...?

elves? perhaps not. similar things to dragons and fae? yes. as well as new creatures? yes! awb is a world where "if you believe it, it might, in fact, exist." the circles that dorian and the other keepers watch over is a fictional catholicism. it does not mean everyone who dies will go through their clutches, only those who believe in those circles. if their self subconsciously chooses. people may go elsewhere, do other things. it's a crazy little place

Can Lucifer and the other circle members easily go to the human world and is Dorian the only one struggling or do they all have like ,limited access’ to the human world ?

They all have issues. Lucifer has never left.

#10:16 ask

[artwithoutblood]

Have any of the characters in the awb universe met or seen this "god"? The one who has a scepter.

There's lots of gods. Sometimes they're just like demons (manifested chunks of flesh created for certain purposes), only they treaded down a path of self-righteousness.

Plenty of people have met the beautiful man with the scepter, with long white hair that trails to his back and is braided in small chunks. He sits alone most of the time and watches the stars. Samir is the one he knows best. They talk sometimes. Usually about their hidden obligations and responsibilities. Sorrowful.

#samir ask

[artwithoutblood]

Need them all to pity me for everything plz

Dorian is most likely to do so. Pet you, look down at you wit those mismatched eyes of his, and he'll take care of you through it all. To him, you're a sad, sopping wet kitten of a human being, so lost down here with him. He's your only guidance. He'll keep you safe.
