hi! this is a question about traits of a character that is undead-ish.
ko and others like him are half-undead and the series lore doesn't line up much with zombie canons at all, but handead characters have a number of traits specific to them and i was wondering how they'd be handled here:
- emotions/dead level rising: handead are the only beings in japan/korea (maybe more regions) that can experience true emotion but they're also prone to feel emotions too intensely and going into a state called dead level rising where they act out on a single emotion dialed up to 100. ko usually feels grief/fear very intensely and his eyes turn red, etc.
- influencer traits: he's also born handead, which means he's called an influencer. he can undo brainwashing with his singing and his bite can turn the un-brainwashed into handead like him, but the created handead won't have the singing/conversion abilities themselves. what effect would his singing and his bite have, if any? in canon the bite will cause a surge of emotion and memory and the dead point / handead traits form within like a week.
- dead point: lastly his right hand is necrotic and its been that way since birth. it's normal for handead. it doesn't really affect him but i was wonder if it'd be healed or not or whatev.
no subject
