Of Rape and Curses

A quick sketch I did yesterday of two of my original characters. They don't have names yet, but they are twins, the one with the eye patch is a girl, the other is a boy. The story behind the girl's lost eye is a bit traumatic and occurred when they were younger, (they're only supposed to be 13 here but they look much older...) These two actually appear in the sequel of the story/manga my friend and I are working on. They are the children of my other character in the first part of the series. Any way, for their background.

I'll explain the main story some other time, but for the traumatic event, the two were 6 years old at the time, right at the beginning of their training (the children in their family, the Knightblade family, are taught to fight starting at the age of 6), so still quite vulnerable. They were playing outside of the estate and wandered into the woods. It just so happens that a Faye, one of the Fair Folk, had had his eye on the Knightblades for a while and took the opportunity to basically screw with them. They were tempted and led into a clearing where the little bastard of a Faye began to harass the boy. Of course, two 6 year old children wouldn't stand a chance against one of the Faye, and he raped the poor kid, right before the eyes of the older twin sister. Afterwards, he frankly proceeded to gouge the girls eye out, of course, in the most painful way possible. In the end, he took them and dumped them on the on the front step of the Knightblade Estate, and placed a curse on both children.

So for the curses, I'm not quite sure exactly what they are at the moment. I have an idea for the boy but not really for the girl. Maybe I'll update once I think of something.

EDIT: And I thought of a curse. Since I'm lazy I'm just gonna copy and past the explanation I have my partner in crime for this collab.
The eye that was gouged out was replaced with the ability to see a person's death. It's still an empty socket but, basically the girl can see how a person is going to die. The first time the girl meets ANYONE on a given day she will see how they die. For example, if she sees her brother in the morning, she will see how he will die later in life (might I add in GREAT detail as well). But if she see him again later in the day she won't. However the next day, the first time she sees him in the day, she will see how he dies. And how the person dies won't necessarily be the same every time, because how one dies depends on their choices. The vision she gets is merely based on the choices the person makes currently and if he/she continues to make choices in the same way. However people's choices change (most of the time) therefore the way they die are subject to change. But she sees this with everyone she meets, for the first time in a day. The first few years she had this power traumatized her, adding on to her already traumatized state after the encounter with the Faye. There were many mornings where she would scream and cry in panic the moment she sees her brother or her own father and mother because she sees their deaths right before her eyes. However though she sees these visions, she can in no way tell anyone how someone dies, she physically can't. The curse prevents her from doing anything to prevent the deaths because you simply can't mess with the universe like that. She goes through agonizing pain if she tries in any way, may it be speaking, writing, sign language, etc. However, I think I'll make it that Rael goes and finds Issy to help him create a way to stop the curse. I assume that you can't stop a Faye's curse, Issy makes the eye patch (like Rael's gloves and Kagen's eye mask) and it dulls the effects of the visions by making them a bit blurry/hazy so that she doesn't seen them in that much detail, but she does still get visions and occasionally a vision will be strong enough to get past the eye patch and will hit her full blast. This is why she has such a calm and rather reserved demeanor and rarely opens up to anyone except her twin brother and her father.
For the boy, his curse is that he is plagued by creepy MEN (yes MALE people, young and old whether they be straight, bi, or gay), who basically want to screw him into a wall. His father Rael, (obviously immune to the curse considering that he is his FATHER, I'm not that twisted....yet.... Plus Rael has his own curse to worry about as well) pretty much does all he can to keep creepers away from his son but he can't exactly isolate him totally because they are nobles and the Knightblade family at that, and they have to make themselves known. Also the boy himself is gay, considering that he was raped by a MALE Faye, and he basically only attracts men (for some reason girls don't really bother with him, I'll probably make that part of the curse as well, it's not like he's not attractive) he doesn't really have much of a choice. I don't know if I'll actually make a partner for him though (me and my yaoi tendencies...) but we'll see. But because of his........circumstances, he's extremely wary of people (particularly men), a bit a sadist, and has a dark, if not sick, sense of humor. (Rael often wonders where his son got the sadism and dark humor from, though  it's probably the mother's fault, who has yet to be created, since she must be a pretty scary woman to have gained Rael's respect and love.)
And that's about it.

Don't you just love my mind?


EDIT (again): You know I change my mind. The boy will not be gay, he will be straight as a metal pole. Considering that his sister most likely won't fall in love and get married before or after she becomes General because she'd probably go insane by witnessing their deaths all the time, the family still needs an heir for the General title and they must be of Knightblade blood. So the only one left would be the boy and if he's gay there would be no chance of a child. So I'll make him straight, however because of the curse that makes him attract men, it somehow makes women indifferent to him, so he'll be having some issues finding a mate. I'm so mean.
