he was formed in a place called the void which is a pitch black labyrinth just beyond earth. the void can only be seen and accessed by entities that come from the void
oblivion’s choice was peace. abyss and spiral were the opposite and learned that killing humans gave them joy and was thrilling however, they were all sent to different places so oblivion didn’t know about the other two. oblivion was sent to canada abyss was sent to south africa and spiral was sent to england
oblivion feeds off of the life force that escapes from human bodies as their lives progress. he never takes life force directly from a person, however he’s often found near the dying or newly dead as they’re surrounded with the most life force, so anyone who catches him assumes he’s a killer.
if oblivion goes 2 days without feeding, he has a 50% chance to go manic, or lose control of himself. this may cause him to start killing people. with each hour past 42, another 10% is added to the chance that he’ll go manic.
about 6 months after arriving on earth, oblivion met a girl named elise. she found him feeding on her dying grandfather’s life force, but she was the only person to stop and hear him out instead of immediately accusing him of hurting her grandfather. they became friends and oblivion began to develop an attachment to elise, and her brother, sammy (sammy is
elise and sammy taught oblivion about society, including gender identity, romance, politics, etc. i forgot to mention that prior to this, oblivion identified as agender (without knowing) as thats what he was “born” as, but elise and sammy helped him realize that he identifies as a man
eventually oblivion realizes that he has feelings for elise, however when he goes to confess, he learns that sammy attempted suicid (and failed) due to a toxic relationship, so elise is too upset to listen. he doesn’t try again until an entire year later.
when he does try, he gets his heart broken. elise kindly rejects him and later introduces him to her boyfriend, jacob. 5 months later, elise leaves jacob because he says something hateful about sammy. 5 months after that, oblivion tries to confess again. he gets rejected again.
oblivion never tries again, instead choosing to live in heartache but stay by elise’s side as her friend for another 50 years until she dies in a car accident. he lingers around sammy for a long time, but sammy is happily married by now and doesn’t pay much attention to oblivion, so eventually oblivion bids farewell and wanders the world instead.
eventually, oblivion finds himself in england, where abyss is. he’s shocked to meet another of his kind, having forgotten that abyss and spiral were created alongside him. he tries to befriend her, but end up leaving after learning that she takes pleasure in slaughtering any human she comes across.
he wanders on and on, and starts to miss elise much more than he already did. hus heartache grows and grows as years pass, and 45 years later they manifest into another version of himself. and yes! oblivion selfcest happens. however, it’s unhealthy, and oblivion 2 (i dont have a better name for him) turns oblivion into a shell
of who he once was. oblivion stops feeding and stops interacting with anyone except his clone. 3 days later, he goes manic, and massacres an entire village. after feeding off of the people he killed, he comes back to his senses and is horrified of what he’s done.
then, he remembers that if he goes manic long enough without feeding (approximately a week) he will start to fade away, his consciousness and body falling apart and the pieces going back to the void. once the process is complete, he will never be able to exist again. he locks himself away in one of the empty houses of the village for a week until it starts
