Gab

So! I wanted to base a character off this song but didn't want her to be basically a carbon copy of the character the song is based off of. However, I think I have a pretty good idea for her: So, this angel/devil/who knows what had been a very manipulative and cruel angel, harming mortals more often than not, so she had been cast out of heaven as a result. She had been cast into an inky abyss, however, she hadn't lost her halo and one of her angel wings for some strange reason. Once she was cast into this abyss, she had ended up sprouting a demon tail and wing. In order for her to atone for her sins, she must lure a certain number of guilty souls into that inky abyss. However, she has taken to luring both guilty and innocent souls there, claiming the smallest mistake in a person's life was enough for them to warrant a ticket to the abyss. She simply wants to be perfect. As for how she does this, she goes into the dreams of her victims and persuades them to do things for her, calling the victims her "little errand boys" (or girls, if she's dealing with a female) that usually ends up killing them. The person's mind is a literal black and grey maze.

Please tell me what you guys think! This was a very on the spot character that I had literally thought up in like an hour or so, so she probably needs a lot of tweaking! Criticism is welcome as long as it's constructive! For those of you who have played the game and are familiar with the character that the song is based off of, how well did I do differentiating my character from her? (Before you ask, yes I am familiar with the game and character the song was based on, I just wanted to get someone else's opinion on it)
You've put a lot of thought into this!

I got a new character (rn) and feel like we could roleplay with them, if we found a plot :3

Ahhhhh! Glad you guys like her concept! And yeah, we could totally get an rp started once I get her up and stuff haha
I’d rp with that character
In my experience in basing characters off of songs, they do tend to start as straight rips from the song in question but over time you'll be able to add more details as you work with them. The one I have has undergone two major overhauls. What helps is to expand on what wasn't mentioned in the song and flesh them out more that way. But overall, time will help you work them out more.
