“Am I evil, Archivist? Is a thing evil when it simply obeys its own nature? Embodies its nature? When that nature is created by those that revile it?” The Magnus Archives, Episode 101: Another Twist.

- Please just. You know. Have normal human decency? Don’t just be an ass to me? I’m a little new to this.

- Don’t spam flood my request/ask inbox! It may take a bit for me to get to your requests, but that’s fine!

Name: Parasite

Pronouns: They/It

Species: Symbiote

Vc/voice claim: Micheal Distortion (The Magnus Archives)

Theme Song: Under My Skin (Jukebox the Ghost)

Description: In full form, they appear black with oil-like blue iridescent patterning and white spikes that extend from their back down to the tip of their tail. They have a slightly more animalistic appearance, with a head resembling a snakes, and a more hunched over stance. However, they can take a humanoid form of their host (though they never stay with one host for long). During this form, while appearing human at first glance, they tend to act odd, almost possessed, with all the wrong movements and all the wrong expressions, and just all around appearing generally uncanny to any outsiders.

Values: Parasite, above all else, values finding a host they can form a full and complete bond with. Most of their hosts die within the first couple of days of bonding to them, much less form perfect symbiosis with them. Due to this, Parasite usually just tends to operate the dead bodies to their full extent, before jumping to another host that will be sure to die or leave within a couple of days in a desperate search for another like them. All they care about is finding a new host and completing perfect symbiosis, no matter the cost, no matter how many die to achieve it, even if there may not even exist a completely perfect host for them out there.

Personality: Parasite is (due to their lack of social skills), absolutely horrible at disguising how inhuman they are to others. They do not fully understand human emotions or behavior, simply making horrid attempts to understand and copy their behavior in a way that ends up being uncanny. It also doesn’t tend to help that they’ll almost always stalk someone for a couple of days straight before confronting them first (which doesn’t tend to give the first impression). Parasite is very curious though, being intrigued by human culture and wanting to learn more.

Despite their violent tendencies, if one manages to be careful enough (and not try to fight or flee) around the symbiote and keep their distance, Parasite can be very friendly and helpful. Parasite is mostly just lonely and desperate for attention and affection.

Backstory: Not many people know too much about Parasite’s origin, all anyone knows is that they did not originate from Venom, and that they were taken from/left Klyntar from a very young age.
