Character Canon
Hollow Knight

Opalinesque

Player Contact
opalinesque | Opalinesque#1235

Additional Notes Depending on the strength of one's senses they ping of nothing, or nothing (as in a vast, quiet emptiness). People familiar with emptiness, darkness, or negative energy might also catch the edges of an endless well of uncountable regrets, and/or a deep bone-rattling hum mixed with the sound of the sea.

Objectives/taboos marked "innate" are based off of the Hollow Knight game mechanics, which do use "soul" as a consumable power. They have no effect aside from increasing/decreasing how much soul the knight has. I just put them in there to bully them by having the "hurt people for soul" objective be public

Pronouns are they/them or it! ICLY I DON'T CARE AND NEITHER DO THEY but OOCly please use gender neutral stuff for them. Despite the knight being canonically agender, fandom is often bad about this and I am Tired.
