Characters

So, things are finally, really and truly back to normal. Other than that one Canada Goose incident nothing has happened all week. I suppose that needs an explanation. I might have mentioned that our house gets mobbed by Canada Geese, most of them have already moved on but there's still about 20 that visit the house. Wednesday I found one torn apart. We have foxes and Racoons and such around here, I wouldn't put it too far out of the realm of possibility that there's nothing other than predation to this. The stories of animal mutilations from several bloggers made me note it though. Although my paranoia has faded significantly. Mainly because I've stopped reading other blogs, about Construct and Marble hornets comes out with a part maybe once in a blue moon.

Although I have taken to filming myself with my Cellphone camera. I've got one of those fancy iPhone things so the quality is ok. I only film when shit gets crazy and there's nothing remarkable on the footage.

I'm falling back into some ruts I was trying to avoid though. My blood pressure has gone back to being low so I'm getting dizzy often for no reason. The really bad ones are followed by minor seizures but that's nothing out of the ordinary. For me anyway. I've been dealing with this problem for years, I just have a few allergies that make it tougher for me to keep in good health. But I manage. Other than the new part where I'm starting to get winded quicker, but I attribute that to my lack of activity since the quarter ended and I decided to take summer off. I just need to start jogging again, that'll clear up.

Anyway My characters. I've been dancing around actually telling their names because they seem kind of... Narcissistic? The Mentor character I've been talking about is named Zero. "But wait, Your nickname is Nihil, Your email address has Zero in it. Have you modeled this guy after you?" No. I use the name Zero because of that character, not the other way around. I came up with him a long ass time ago. Most of the stoic master type characters have always been this guy and when I finally decided to stop and write everything down, he of course had to be in it.

Zero is an Ancient One, the oldest of Angels, one of the originals created to fight... The Origin, My villain. As the name implies He's The Origin of all things, the first lifeform. He and the universe were born at the same time and all life came from him. "But. This is the villain. What gives?" He kind of went insane. If you couldn't sleep and were completely immortal, you'd probably go insane too. Especially if you have the thoughts of all living things flowing through you as an incomprehensible wailing. Plus as he built civilizations (That would be the Gods) they tended to not like the idea that he could kill them all if he felt like it. Eventually they started rebelling against him, trying to preserve their civilization by attacking the most powerful being in the universe. You can imagine how well that went.

There was one god that the Origin had made to be ALMOST as strong as he was. As a constant companion. This god led the movement to destroy the Origin, since he knew how batshit the Origin really was getting. This God was the one that was able to create powerful angels able to hold their own against the Origin. But the Origin is still the Origin so all attempts to destroy him completely have failed. He's been beaten, but can never die. Unless you do his job for him and destroy the universe, which kind of beats the purpose of fighting him in the first place.

I'll go into more detail if you want but you've got my main Protagonist and my main Antagonist now. I'll talk of side characters and other leads later on.
