At the time of writing, she is around 5.6 kg. I feed, take care and play with her for about 3 years now.

You know how to take care of a cat, just tingle things around to play, feed her healthy, don't get her scared, and in exchange you get emotional support buddy. Right?<p>Well, actually yes, but not so simple. Because - she is a living being of the highest tier of Earth's animals, Mammalian class and Hunter at that. Adopted by bipedal naked monkeys for purely practical reasoning of protection off rodents for milk and treats. Now we evolved as a society, we keep them not as industrial workers, but pets.

Similar to us in so many ways. But they are so small, so tiny, not understanding how ever-changing world works. No wonder tho, it was changed for our needs, not anybody else on the whole planet. And when you hold this poor thing, birthed out of long-lasting rivalry of same bipedal butt naked creatures, for the most <em>Exotic</em> breed. With its poor stomach strength, her inability to hunt for herself because she was separated from Motherhood long time ago, and no practical knowledge outside our limited space and interactions.<hr><p>I love cats, I always did. But after owning one, you start to understand how fragile a life can be, and how much happiness little things can get you. Even if every second of your existence is now tied, to another creature, that you must protect because it is <strong>Your humanity</strong>. If you let anything, even universe itself hurt this small <em>adopted child</em> of yours, will you have the heart to forgive yourself?

I love creating stories for my characters in any game. So skip it, you won't lose anything.<p>Also this post contains spoilers for the Dark Souls series, so if you haven't played them yet, I highly recommend. Or to get into atmosphere, watch some theory videos like <a href=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwjUe4B_g7M>Hawkshaw's lore videos</a>.<h2 id=Why-Dark-Souls?>Why Dark Souls?</h2><hr><p>Dark Souls is something I never knew I'd enjoy before trying it out when Dark Souls Remastered came out. I've lost countless hours and souls exploring dead worlds with avatars of my consciousness, bonding with last survivors of the age of Fire. In 3 games I have spent days and weeks, completed challenge runs and watched a wholesome community of users across the globe also being emotionally attached to games that do not forgive, but care about the players all the same.<p>Also, because it's an <strong>RPG</strong> that means I get to <strong>roleplay</strong>! It mostly boiled down to giving my character a back story and planning their equipment and decisions in less statistical way. If not for this, I wouldn't have linked the fire as many times as I did.<p>So <strong>You</strong> are going to read some <strong>lore</strong> of my characters from <em>Dark Souls 3</em>. <em>What</em> motivated them to be <strong>Ashen Ones</strong> they are, <em>What</em> I think of them and <em>What</em> happened after I stopped playing as them.<h3 id=And-why-DS3?>And why DS3?</h3><hr><p>Because it's my favorite part of the series, of course!<h2 id=Dark-Flames-of-the-Keeper>Dark Flames of the Keeper</h2><hr><p>Slipping in and out, or not even that. There is nothing but darkness after all, it might be just remembering that you exist. Remembering what was, before the abyss swallowed you whole...<p><strong>The flame</strong>, so fragile yet so alluring. How many burned their hands on yet to be cold ashes? You can count at least one fool. As a Fire Keeper, one must tender the fire, tireless watchers, suffering ladies. You just couldn't handle it. One of many, lost to the fire, ash to ash, just another human.<p>Yet, you are reborn, as the one who shall link the fire. But, if you were destined to bring the light back into this world, why it's so dark here? Uh, yes, Alluring <strong>flames</strong>, Vilhelm held it tight, but a crushing defeat after a near endless fall made him reconsider Church's teachings.<p>Now look at you. With but a dress you inherited from your late sister, and an <em>Onyx blade</em>, that can create its own fire. Why would you even need this linking nonsense? So that another poor lass could die for those damned <strong>flames</strong>, this world suffered enough, let it have its end. Fitting of your black <strong>flame</strong>.<p>But for that you need power. And <strong>Yoel of Londor</strong> promised a great half of that, in exchange for the looks, and the darkness within you. But all bargains end with the trader's profit. You came a great length, but unscalable wall made of <em>Dragon Steel</em> was all it took to lose hope. Even if for a bit, you plunged into the abyss, there is no going back. Hollowing can't be stopped.<p><em>Anger, Vengeance, Hope</em>. That's all it amounted to, all pointless in death and in undeath.<h3 id=Some-lore-for-the-emo-mess-above>Some lore for the emo mess above</h3><hr><p>So, that was a story I made up for my first Dark Souls 3 character that was abandonment because I couldn't keep playing at 20 fps in 450p while being wrecked for 100th time by <em>Dragonslayer Armour</em>. I am a big <strong>ymfah</strong> fan (<em>no, I don't know how to pronounce it</em>), and before starting playing DS3, I watched <a href=https://youtu.be/vUctR5y2JLc>this video</a> and got inspired to have Onyx blade to be my first proper weapon and complete the whole game with it. So, I cheesed Vilhelm by dropping him off a cliff, and learned some dark pyromancy from Karla. Also got the cool fire keeper's dress for 20K souls, best investment ever.<p>Also, I only create female characters in DS3, idk why. In most other games I don't care about that, it mostly depends on the mood or game mechanics. But all characters going forward will be girls. And on a better PC too, because my brother let me play DS3 on his beefy ahhh pc. So I created a new character and went for my first 100% of the game.<h2 id=Mercenary-Sister>Mercenary Sister</h2><hr><p>Cemeteries lost their meaning long before your time. Labyrinthy catacombs and locked prisons replaced their purpose of keeping the dead in peace. That's where your family resides, along with your <strong>sister</strong>, who lost all hope on church's teachings and turned a hollow husk of the joyful little rascal you remember.<p>With words "I was never a <strong>deep</strong> believer, nor does anyone keep me here anymore", you started to wander. A Sword for hire, going to west with your trusty <strong>Black Blade</strong>. Kinda embarrassing naming a simple katana something like that, but it's a testament to how you grew with it from a young age.<p>But as long as you kept the edge thin and stance strong, no foe could hold a candle to your superior swordplay. And you began to wonder, if there is something more you could do, something greater than fading into the legends of countless swordsmen, feeding stories of blood and fear.<p>And that's the story before you Kindled the fire, before you fought your way trou gods, demons. Making <strong>Firelink Shrine</strong> your new home, and warming it up with so many comrades. Before you unraveled the truth of Painted worlds, and Got a glimpse into what future holds for everyone.<p>But you'd do anything to make your dear <strong>sister</strong> rest the way she'd want to, just for a moment you will create joy in this sorrowful lands and may it be reborn, again, anew.<h3 id=True-Heroine>True Heroine</h3><hr><p>Thus concludes the second character story. I beat the whole game, including DLCs with her, so she is truly THE Main Character as of now. I can remember trying <a href=https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Slave+Knight+Gael+(Boss)>Gael</a> on her, and listening to a <a href=https://youtu.be/F5V5fxKVLXo>Jpop song</a> on loop for an hour. If my blood capillaries were weak, I'd bleed from my nose - that's how much joy the fight gave me.<p>Also tried saving every NPC too, so some of their story lines weren't complete, yeah Dark Souls is fricking dark dude.<p>I really liked the Two-handed R2 of the <a href=https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Black+Blade>Black Blade</a>, so I based the whole build around waiting for the moment to strike absolute nastiest blow onto the opponent. It was a less aesthetically cool but more gameplay-oriented build, so I don't even remember what she wore, I think it was a mix of <a href=https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Brass+Set>Brass Set</a> and <a href=https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Sellsword+Set>Sellsword set</a>.<p>I actually remember basing her story off the first one, as a Sister who saw the light instead of plunging into darkness, but it seems more fitting to have them separate.<h2 id=May-your-ashes-rot-and-your-soul-burn>May your ashes rot and your soul burn</h2><hr><p>The true magic was born in <strong>Izalith</strong>. No dragon cults, nor the glory chapels of so-called gods will accept this simple truth. Witches - creators of higher world, society that was feared by lesser beings. Even the descendants of first pyromancy, dwellers of the <strong>Great Swamp</strong>, were none the wiser, fearing the wonders of new flames. Exiling those who dare to innovate, exhausting all creativity of my being and, in the end, I abandoned that boring land.<p>Lothric, built on top of Lordran, sitting just above the bedding of out ancestors, <strong>The Lost Izalith</strong>. I venture forth, to acquire the forgotten knowledge, the lost imagination that was the <strong>Chaos Flame</strong>. To show them all, that bordered flames are no <em>match</em> to my art, of the exiled, of the ridiculed. May the world know the flames; may it burn once again.<h3 id=I-like-challenges>I like challenges</h3><p>This was my first "challenge" run of Dark Souls 3, pyromancy-only. Beat the game and DLCs, no dark pyromancy of course. I heavily relied on <a href=https://darksouls.wiki.fextralife.com/Toxic+Mist>Toxic Mist</a>, the creation of <a href=https://darksouls.wiki.fextralife.com/Eingyi>Eingyi</a> to beat some bosses with HP bars that are too damn long for my estus count. Hence the emphasis on the "exiled" part of the story.<p>It's short but simple. And I think it's a nice continuation of the first character, because they both rely on pyromancy, but while one disregarded some aspect of it, this one went full throttle.<h2 id=This-is-not-the-end-of-me,-this-is-the-beginning>This is not the end of me, this is the beginning</h2><hr><p>Hello again, hope you didn't cringe to death from over-the-top scratches on the wall that some schizo calls "stories". Well, undead always rise again anyways.<p>In the end, stories from this post don't make sense. They shouldn't, because it's just on-the-fly interpretations of characters I play as. It's just a glimpse into what makes games fun for me, and I hope it can inspire you to go beyond "META", to strive for more than perfection.<p>This world is full of stories to tell, but it doesn't mean you can't make your <strong>own</strong>. In many worlds to come, games to play, music to listen to - never forget your imagination as the tool that nobody else can give <strong>you</strong>.</div></div></main><footer class=footer><div class="segment mode"><a href=https://ladas552.me>NORMAL</a></div><div class="segment branch"><a href=https://github.com/Ladas552/ladas552.github.io><i class="nf nf-md-source_branch"></i> master </a></div><div class="segment filename"><a href=#top><i class="nf nf-dev-norg"></i> We are the souls.norg</a></div><div class="segment location"id=scroll-percentage></div></footer> 1 1 + <!doctypehtml><html lang=en-us><meta charset=UTF-8><meta content="My Dark Souls 3 characters stories"name=description><meta content=ladas552 name=author><meta content="games, story-time"name=keywords><meta content=width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0 name=viewport><link href=https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prism-themes/1.9.0/prism-night-owl.min.css rel=stylesheet><script src=https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prism/1.29.0/prism.min.js></script><script src=https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prism/1.29.0/plugins/autoloader/prism-autoloader.min.js></script><script src=https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prism/1.29.0/plugins/line-numbers/prism-line-numbers.min.js></script><script src=https://ladas552.me/assets/js/apple_roll.js></script><script src=https://ladas552.me/assets/js/scroll.js></script><link href=https://ladas552.me/assets/css/style.css rel=stylesheet><link href=https://ladas552.me/assets/images/nix-snowflake-rainbow.svg rel=icon><meta content=/assets/images/nix.png property=og:image><title>We Are The Souls - Rattman</title><body class=body><header><nav class=navigation><ul><li><a href=https://ladas552.me>Index</a><li><a href=https://ladas552.me/meta/about>About</a><li><a href=https://ladas552.me/meta/credits>Credits</a><li><a href=https://ladas552.me/rss.xml><i class="nf nf-md-rss_box"></i></a></ul></nav></header><main><div class=content id=content><div><input id=toc-toggle type=checkbox><label aria-label="Toggle Table of Contents"class=toc-button for=toc-toggle></label><nav class=toc-panel><div class=toc-content><ul><li><a href=#We-are-the-souls>We are the souls</a><ul><li><a href=#Aye,-siwmae>Aye, siwmae</a><li><a href=#Why-Dark-Souls?>Why Dark Souls?</a><ul><li><a href=#And-why-DS3?>And why DS3?</a></ul><li><a href=#Dark-Flames-of-the-Keeper>Dark Flames of the Keeper</a><ul><li><a href=#Some-lore-for-the-emo-mess-above>Some lore for the emo mess above</a></ul><li><a href=#Mercenary-Sister>Mercenary Sister</a><ul><li><a href=#True-Heroine>True Heroine</a></ul><li><a href=#May-your-ashes-rot-and-your-soul-burn>May your ashes rot and your soul burn</a><ul><li><a href=#I-like-challenges>I like challenges</a></ul><li><a href=#This-is-not-the-end-of-me,-this-is-the-beginning>This is not the end of me, this is the beginning</a></ul></ul></div></nav></div><div><h1 id=We-are-the-souls>We are the souls</h1><h2 id=Aye,-siwmae>Aye, siwmae</h2><hr><p>This post is about role playing and consists of edgy stories that have no weight other than my desire to share something I find fun. I love creating stories for my characters in any game. So skip it, you won't lose anything.<p>Also this post contains spoilers for the Dark Souls series, so if you haven't played them yet, I highly recommend. Or to get into atmosphere, watch some theory videos like <a href=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwjUe4B_g7M>Hawkshaw's lore videos</a>.<h2 id=Why-Dark-Souls?>Why Dark Souls?</h2><hr><p>Dark Souls is something I never knew I'd enjoy before trying it out when Dark Souls Remastered came out. I've lost countless hours and souls exploring dead worlds with avatars of my consciousness, bonding with last survivors of the age of Fire. In 3 games I have spent days and weeks, completed challenge runs and watched a wholesome community of users across the globe also being emotionally attached to games that do not forgive, but care about the players all the same.<p>Also, because it's an <strong>RPG</strong> that means I get to <strong>roleplay</strong>! It mostly boiled down to giving my character a back story and planning their equipment and decisions in less statistical way. If not for this, I wouldn't have linked the fire as many times as I did.<p>So <strong>You</strong> are going to read some <strong>lore</strong> of my characters from <em>Dark Souls 3</em>. <em>What</em> motivated them to be <strong>Ashen Ones</strong> they are, <em>What</em> I think of them and <em>What</em> happened after I stopped playing as them.<h3 id=And-why-DS3?>And why DS3?</h3><hr><p>Because it's my favorite part of the series, of course!<h2 id=Dark-Flames-of-the-Keeper>Dark Flames of the Keeper</h2><hr><p>Slipping in and out, or not even that. There is nothing but darkness after all, it might be just remembering that you exist. Remembering what was, before the abyss swallowed you whole...<p><strong>The flame</strong>, so fragile yet so alluring. How many burned their hands on yet to be cold ashes? You can count at least one fool. As a Fire Keeper, one must tender the fire, tireless watchers, suffering ladies. You just couldn't handle it. One of many, lost to the fire, ash to ash, just another human.<p>Yet, you are reborn, as the one who shall link the fire.
