Wild and Fae RP Guidelines

[Void Faes Nexus]

Now that we’re over the main principles of roleplaying a Wild, let’s talk about how the Void Faes are different from them.


I. It’s less painful if you relax

---

While the regular Wild practices would see the infestation physically enforced upon your character, Vagrant Nomads practice an approach that is arguably more sinister.

It all starts from the moment a Vagrant has its sights on your character. Before the infestation itself, your character undergoes severe indoctrination by getting exposed to the mind of a Nomad via brief telepathic connections, through which your character will experience emotions and feelings the way they never would have imagined. Your character will start thinking differently, their opinion about the Nomads will change to be more sympathetic, whilst their thoughts about mankind become more sociopathic. The final point of the indoctrination is reached when your character starts to plead to become one with the Vagrants, where the act of an infestation isn’t forced upon, but rather begged for. It is the point where your character is ready to be assimilated.


II. Two is better than one

---

To have your identity entirely converted to their way of thinking and utilized as a tool is a far greater insult than just manipulating or erasing it. That’s how the Vagrant Nomads think.

Unlike their kin from the Omicrons, before committing any acts of infestation, Vagrants were relatively small in scale. As such, for their “song” to be more powerful, they needed all the voices they could spare. With time, the “assimilating” method proved to be a successful theory, and was therefore adopted permanently as the Vagrants’ infestation strategy.

As such, after the infestation is complete, your character’s personality remains intact (as much as it would after the immense indoctrination), and instead of a single, merged mind, you get two, permanently existing in a symbiotic relationship. You as a player get to roleplay as both your character and their incubi, since both your character’s and their incubi’s minds exist within the Mindshare now. Any brief sensations from telepathic connections your character would’ve experienced in the past are now constant, unyielding. Your character is forever encased in a permanent state of bliss, and they now serve as a source of this bliss for when the time comes when a Vagrant Nomad decides to indoctrinate another human being. And when the moment comes, it’s better to have two voices than one. Think of it as torrent services.


III. You’re still undercover

---

Being in this “zombified” state doesn’t mean that your character will behave oddly in public. You still get to roleplay them the way you used to, still retain their personality with any friends they had in the past and whatnot. However, you must always, AT ANY COST, avoid getting identified as an infectee or a nomad sympathizer. Choose your actions wisely, think every possible outcome through, and if you’re not sure how to act - ask your superiors.
