Monthly Pacing: My speed fluctuates; generally I do run on the slow side, especially during my work week. But I try to hit back current things more quickly to ensure that my partners can get their AC and that important plotty things don't get pushed back too far. It means that older stuff can become "months-old backtags to be poked at" that I'm happy to drop / handwave whenever, backtag into infinity, etc. I'm super flexible!

Character Name: Peter Graham
Character Blood Type: Darkblood
Character Role: Arcane Scholar (student, though I'm gradually going to be nudging him towards becoming a teacher at some point in his future, so that's A Thing on my mind as he progresses)

What CR you would like to develop for this event: Anything!! Considering Peter has lost a ton of his CR recently, this month could be an... interesting one for him to meet some new folks, and to continue exploring his existing CR, as well. I'd love to dig in deep to various angsts and pains, indulge in chaos, really anything here.
Open/Closed to New CR this event: Open!

Timeline/Event Ideas: I'll probably be doing closed starters and sticking to tagins this time, so please feel free to lmk if you want to do a thing and I'll make it happen ♡

GENERAL. Lordy, I'll try to lay it out... I'd love to do threads involving anything listed here, so if you'd like to do a thing with any of this, I'm absolutely down!

— Appropriate for the month of The Reckoning and as a result of the Emperor fucking with Mariana, the spirit of Peter's dead little sister will be coming out directly (information here). He won't have any awareness of this, but Charlie will absolutely be on his mind all month long, considering his perpetually guilty conscience is because he feels responsible for her death. I'm wide open for characters getting to meet and interact with her! Come babysit a six foot tall 13-year-old little horror girl.....
— Peter will be branded with an M for Murder at times throughout the month (I would love any kind of interaction this could incite; maybe Fellow Sinners to angst with or people to Judge Him... Peter will actually be wanting judgment, as he functions through his guilt and feels he deserves punishment for what he's done).
— Later on in the month, Peter will be accompanying Luna Lovegood on a little mission to try and appease Mariana. (Illarion's comment here about how the ritual will go down / Peter's comment here about my own ideas / plotting potential). I'd love to do things with anyone else involved there! This'll be Peter's first time really willingly giving the kind of help he can provide — which is essentially to be the medium for a higher supernatural entity to work through.
— Peter will be losing a lot more of his close CR this month, which will be adding to his feelings that he's being punished / deserves punishment / making his mental state worse.
— Peter will be continuing to tell people about his demonic possession, as he works towards "accepting" this fate and how to have a life in this place while living with his "ailment".

GOOD AND EVIL.
Peter will be going the Evil route, and become progressively, uncharacteristically, hostile. I don't have many specific desires here; mostly I'm just open to whatever scenarios could unfold! Fights with mutually-Evil characters, him getting snappy at or even attacking Good characters... I'd be down for anything. While I don't think he'll get to the outright murderous point himself, he does come with an extremely powerful demon king who could be a threat in a variety of ways (from telekinetic horrors to psychological manipulation type things), so if anyone might want to get..... maimed and/or killed by a demon, I could... do that for you...!

I'm also definitely down for him getting brought down from Evil corruption by someone at some point in the month. This would be interesting because I can see his demon getting bitey about someone messing around with Peter's state, and probably giving them a hard time about it.... if anyone would like to have to deal with that. 👀

FORTUNE'S FOOL.
So Peter already has his fair share of insecurities in regards to his relationship with Luna Lovegood. I'd definitely be down to do something with him feeling Especially Judged this month / others Especially Judging his relationship with Luna. That could be for any reason really, but it'd also be very interesting if Peter's demonic possession was a factor for Judgment, since... it's definitely Weird and Often Uncomfortable that he's dating someone while possessed, and he gets that! He has a lot of weird guilt and fear about it! Let's torment him

There's also people possibly judging Luna for being with him or for being bonded to Paimon / her particular witchy relationship with the demon, which could make Evil-effected Peter get Really Mad....

Another option here is the whole "falling in love with people" thing. Peter won't be falling for anyone else, but if anyone wants to suddenly be hit with feelings of love for him (or Peter could just perceive that they are)..... it would be hilarious to have Paimon just get really aggressive and protective of Peter's relationship with Luna, burst out at this poor person all "HE'S NOT YOUR BOYFRIEND"... and probably attack them, seeing them as A Threat,,,, It could be kind of hilarious / awkward to deal with later on.

OUR OWN PRISONS. cw: suicidal ideation / familial suicide / suicide attempt
Peter will absolutely be falling hard into this one. There's the aforementioned guilty conscience, his own self-loathing, he suffers from chronic depression, and has had some suicidal ideation over the years. Suicide also runs in his family, and there are a lot of Themes™ there that I'd love to explore, as well as possibly touching on his uncle committing suicide when he was 16, that his mother committed suicide in front of him, or the fact that Peter technically tried (and failed) to kill himself the night Paimon was put inside of him. Basically, if anyone might be down for some Very Heavy Talks, I'm here for it.

I would also be very interested in having him attempt to return to the ocean, with the knowledge that he might not return, and the idea that this would be a form of "suicide" for him. So bringing him back could definitely be a thing on the table. Or, there's the option for someone else to also be suicidal and we could see how that goes, with the end result being that maybe they both help each other out of it somehow?

I'm aware this is all extremely heavy material, so please feel free to let me know if you might be interested in something with this prompt but have certain limits, etc.
