User:Reddir/sandbox/vestige - Lost Children

if anyone wants to fill this out and post it, feel free. I've never played with vestiges before and don't really know how to develop it. I just felt this concept had to be presented.

an amalgamation of the souls of lost children. High level (Tremendously powerful, as so many souls have been absorbed. But unaware of its own power. Acknowledges it has some power, but doesn't see it as being significant since it can't cause a true love that will be everlasting.)

They have bound together to seek the comfort of others, but since each feels empty, they are unable to comfort eath other. Still they stay together because, really, where else can they go? What is there in such an empty and desolate world to tempt them anywhere? So, they came for companionship, but even though it was an empty hope they stay, because there IS NO hope for them ANYWHERE.

Manifestation: wide eyes, seeking hope, in pale faces of children. They watch for as long as comfort or kindness is offered, then turn away and fade. (often seem to look like children from the viewer's past, usually children the viewer abandoned or was especially kind to)

Influence: when if first comes on, the binder will tend to be cringing, and flinch at any concievable slight, anything at all that can be construed as rejecting them. After a few minutes, this becomes too intense and they seem to go numb - they can't sustain the emotional drain and have withdrawn. CANNOT turn away a child sincerely asking for help, nor hurt anyone offering sincere kindness and understanding. To harm those who care for children, must make a will save, DC is harder if actually see them helping (lasts for 1 min).

Powers:

emotion atk

listlessness

crushing despair

cloth self in darkness - causes others to ignore - a kind of emotional invis.
