Status: Ok here's the deal: When I was originally waffling over what bird to bring into the game it was between Passenger and Gnosis, who are my favourite birds (Passenger is a Passenger Pigeon, which are extinct! womp womp) and they are both scientists of some capacity with a dark history... you can see my type of man, anyway. Then Chi joined with Sesa and I sat there vibrating, bc Sesa is the only person Passenger has ever liked in his life other than his tutor when he was a child and like, Old Isin who was the other person who raised him. And I hummed to myself for a bit and went "I can't possibly play four characters in this game, that's insane, I also run it" anyway I think I'll play four characters in this game.
Anyway Passenger uh... okay. So he's mentally ill. He has Oripathy (Terran rock cancer, the thing on his forehead that looks like a Bindi is actually an Oripathy crystal, don't touch it) and it has severely affected him psychologically. He has mental conversations with the younger version of himself (when I write this in tags it's usually "little Elliot, young Elliot", stuff like that) and they can be very self-hating in nature, usually stuff like "Oh, you're doing such and such so that so and so hates you". I think looking at his lore more closely this specific thing he does was meant to be only for this skin but I've been treating it as a thing ever since it came out and I refuse to change, so Feel free to opt out of this if this is going to make you uncomfortable. Y'all thought Gnosis was a heavy character lmao.
Anyway as for his crimes, Passenger spent 20 years in Sargon working toward revenge against a Lord Ameer (basically a ruler of a city/district, Sargon is based on real life Arabic/Middle Eastern countries), which included starting his own black market, and manipulating a group of nomads and citygoers into starting entire-ass wars for him, and the culmination of this was he burned down the entire place to kill everyone within. He claims he gave civilians time to evacuate but wiggles wrist... anyway, revenge complete, now he works in Rhodes Island's engineering department. He makes machines/Arts Units that are capable of controlling entire lightning storms, and has little concern for people or even his own inventions. Unless you are Sesa. He is DETRIMENTALLY obsessed with Sesa. I'm sorry Chi.
Seeking: He's gonna be cold in the ice castle pls snuggle he : ( He's Sargonian they do not deal with cold well, Sargon is like NML Trigun or just. You know. THE FUCKING MIDDLE EAST. So.
I don't think he'll break his mirror? Or maybe he will???? Undecided.
Not Seeking: ??? nothing, kick his ass
Anything Else: Like I said somewhere in that wall of text feel free to opt out of bird2... lightningbird. He is not as much of an asshole as Nai is but unfortunately HE TOO HAS COMMITTED ATROCITIES ON A GRAND SCALE, also his delusional talking to the kid version of himself is a thing. I don't have a proper opt out for him either yet, I just made the decision to TDM him in January This Month. RIP-
A NEW CHALLENGER APPEARS!
