Fan art I painted of the Witch King of Angmar from Lord of the Rings
Going to try and isopod while running. No idea how, but I'll give the guy a shot.
Had a dream that I saw this ad in a paper
Amazing analysis.
I think the voice of the cold intrests me as a character so much because he's such a real and visceral response to their circumstances. Which is true for all the voices and each is intriguing to dig into in a different way, but this post is about cold the others will get their turn (probably)
Imagine with me, for a second, you've only just learned what it means to exist and you've already been discarded.
You've done everything you were told without question. This is your purposes and you were promised Good at the end of it and you do it and you do it well. Your guide, and authority figure you should be able to trust who is seemingly so much more experienced in this world than you even seems happy with you. You must be doing it right
Then you're abandoned. The only Good for you is an eternity of nothing. The only way you can be Good is to hurt others and to not exist at all.
Wouldn't that leave you empty? Hurt, clawing for something, anything to fill that void. You had Purpose and it turned out to mean nothing, you had a vague promise of Good and it turned out to be nothing.
You can't be Good, can't fulfil that Purpose when all of it means nothing, when you've been lied to and led to be locked in a box for the rest of time. And rather than feel that hurt, you claw it out of yourself with your own two hands, and the same implement you'd used to fulfil your Purpose.
All he wants is that Good he was promised, and to him that's the opposite of that box. It's the opposite of Nothing. It doesn't matter if it hurts him, if it hurts somebody else, if it feels good or feels bad, he just craves something that will make him feel. That will make everything worth it in the end, that will free him from the monotony and inherent stagnation of the situation he's in. What use does he have for morality in pursuit of this? What use is morality in this situation anyway? Where everything is being presented with such grand consequences, where everything is both right and wrong, where these consequences never seem to quite stick for him regardless? So he simply encourages action, in whatever form that may take.
Because it's so much more intresting if it's an active choice. Something is always better than that empty cabin surrounded by nothingness all around he's subconsciously running from. Because cold is most aware of their godly nature, and so is most aware of whats always missing no matter what they do. Who tries to fill that emptiness, first with Purpose then with Action.
For a voice that claims to feel nothing at all a lot of his drive is purely emotional. He wants to be intrested, he wants to be engaged, he wants to feel something even if it hurts. He wants to feel connection to this body the same way the other voices do, and yet criticises them for feeling in that way.
At the core of it all, he wants back what he's lost. And by his very nature he cannot have it.
Reblogging so Crowley can.
Boromir: One does not simply walk into Mordor.

I preordered Return to Monkey Island for a personal joke. Turns out I was the joke.
As for Todd Howard, I still don't believe that TES: VI is going to come out before the 10th console generation unless it actually does. Even then, I expect little more than Daggerfall with modern graphics and a 3D game engine.
Still waiting for Elder Scrolls Castles to be compatible with a modern Android device.
GAMING RULE 1: NEVER PREORDER
GAMING RULE 2:
WIP, wanted it out before November
