[i]The young girl reaches her hand up towards the sky, silhouetting it against the pale light of the moon.
"It's human.." She said quietly to herself. "You're human.."
She closes her eyes, and a cold breeze blows past. She focuses on the chilling bite of the wind, and the way her pale hair gently strokes her neck as it gets blown forwards. These were normal things. Things that normal people felt.. Right?
She opened her eyes, only to see another one staring back at her, its piercing red gaze shooting out from the back of her hand. Shadows crept out from beneath her feet, writhing, and squirming, until they stitched themselves together into a wicked smile covering the breadth of the rooftop beneath her.
"You can play make believe all you want." She said again, this time her voice echoing in on itself, as though hundreds of people were all speaking at once. "But you know that deep down inside, you'll always be a monster."

The eye on her hand closed, and the mouth on the ground was pulled back into the bottoms of her feet. She stared out at the nighttime city, and let out a quiet sigh.
"I guess it's my turn, now." She said, as her body twisted and contorted itself in unnatural ways, deteriorating into a writhing mass of shadows, that began to melt into the stone beneath what was once her feet. Then, she was gone. Or rather, she appeared to be gone. In truth, she was still there, as a thin web of invisible strings, stretching all over the city.
She was everywhere, all at once. Watching everyone, and everything.[/i]
[spoiler]Sorry, not trying to hijack the post, I promise! Wanted to share this somewhere, and my Epithet Erased campaign won't be encountering this character for a long while!
Well, that's a lie. She's literally everywhere.
But, like, they won't know that, and they won't meet her face to face for a while![/spoiler]
I love Iris so much! She’s not only my favorite character that I’ve written for my epithet thing, she’s one of my favorite characters that I’ve ever written!
I don’t know if I’ll ever transfer my campaign over to a standard story format, but if not I’m gonna try to work her into one of my other stories!
