CORRUPTION & SOUL INFO

Dedue Molinaro
CANON
Fire Emblem: 3 Houses
AGE
25
GENDER/SEXUALITY
cisgender man, bisexual (male lean)
PRONOUNS
he/him
PROFESSION
Knight & Retainer of Prince Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd
ORIGINAL APPEARANCE
Dedue is tall, broad, dark-skinned with white hair, and covered in scars, including several on his face. He is well put-together and dresses professionally and modestly, often with shirts buttoned all the way up with a high collar. He often wears heavy armour (until he becomes it via corruption).
HEIGHT
6'8"
HAIR
White, long on top, shaved on sides, pulled back
BUILD
Broad, muscular, frankly huge
EYES
Blue-green
SHIFT INFO
Half-shift/fully corrupted form
Same build as his original form, but appears to be made almost entirely of polished steel. His face and the longer hair on top of his head are the exception to this, still flesh and actual hair. His jaw and the rest of his skull are metal. His joints are ball joints and his limbs fit together similarly to how armour would. There is a golden Duscur symbol embedded on his left pectoral, and also one embedded in his neck under his ear to look like an earring. His other pectoral has a lion embedded in gold. Inspired by warforged, inside him is a metal skeleton and leather that acts as "muscle", but his movement is powered by magic rather than typical biological processes.
Importantly for Dedue's character, he can taste and eat, but the food will provide no nutritional value- the magic will make it effectively disappear as soon as he swallows. His version of sleep is more like dormancy where he becomes extremely still, but he can be fully aware of his surroundings if he so chooses, for a marginal reduction in the effectiveness of the rest. The longer he is dormant, the harder it is to move when he comes out of it.NSFW things TBD
Full shift:
Along these lines, but bigger. Somewhere around 10 feet tall.

Cassius
Lauralae
Jamil
September 2025: Patches grow in size, spanning the length of the undersides of his forearms, and grow to partly cover the outer sides of his shoulders and legs. Where metal meets skin is inflamed and sore.
October 2025: The forced katalyth experiment done on him in captivity have significantly advanced his corruption. In close proximity to a large volume of katalyth for an extended period, the metal patches grew so quickly that the steel warped, becoming brittle and growing in "wrong", with many small holes and even teeth embedded in the metal. Some pieces grew over his joints, locking them in place and making him stiff.
November 2025: The mental effects of being in captivity lingered. His soul made his thoughts and movements slow and gave hima tendency to "shut down" and essentially disassociate rather than endure pain and stress. Jayce helped him with the worst of the physical issues caused by captivity. The metal patches grew to cover most of the outer parts of his arms and legs, and a portion of his chest.
December 2025: Arms, legs, feet, and hands begin to internally change now, with not just metal on the outside but leather and metal on the inside as well, which is painful in a deep aching sort of way. As he incorporates more metal into his diet, the warping from the experiments begins to heal itself, filling in holes with the consumed metals. There's still a couple of teeth in there, but what can you do. So, his mobility is improved, but his pain is increased from the rapid shift of flesh into other materials. His movements are slow and stiff not because he can't move, but because it hurts to. Metal covers more of his chest and up his neck. Starts experimenting with leather gloves so things won't slip out of his shiny hands.

CURRENT
Quest-loving
Weakness to authority
