Being A Historian Probably Sucks When Everything Around You Is Going To Shit - Blog Posts

1 month ago

Currently attempting to write a lamb, but I like the idea that they are a scholar, or at the very least would wish to be one.

I have an idea that they were raised from birth to read and write, to analyze the people and world around them and write it down. To collect cultures and thoughts and ideas to place into a book as a living history.

The reason being for this is that they were born into a generation that knew it was going to die, so while the others were trained to hunt, kill and hide, this lamb was taught to record everything that was left before it was gone for good. A sort of desperate effort to leave something behind, in the hopes that someone will find it and remember them when they are all gone.

As a cult leader, this translates perfectly into record keeping and maintaining a detailed history of the cult and its inhabitants. This also means The Lamb is physically unable to let go of their past and the grief attached to it. They have it all written down and re-read it over and over because someone has to remember. Someone needs to keep some part of them alive. Someone must remember every detail and they don't remember the color of their mother's eyes. They never wrote it down they don't remember what was the color why didn't they write it down whatwasthecolorwhatwasthecolorwhatwasthecolor

what's a characteristic you've given your Lamb and why?

I'll go first: My Lamb talks a lot. They're a rambler, and I got the idea from spamming the 'B to Bleat' button in game. Lil dude has a special button to repeatedly make noise
