Description

R0T is based on the early 2000's obsession with zombies, as well as the skater culture of the time. Will always be seen in baggy, and often tattered, clothing, with a pair of earbuds. You will also very often see them with a comically large foam cup full of soda. They do not speak, only communicating in grunts and other assorted sounds.

Backstory

R0T bonds to a host parasitically, essentially "hijacking" their brain. There is no clear correlation in the hosts R0T chooses, its choices seeming opportunistic. Although, its main goal is to thrive by any means necessary. Though its origins are unknown, what is clear is that R0T takes control of hosts differently. The host mostly keeps their original personality, behaviors, etc., but will sporadically lose control of this normalcy when their prosperity is threatened. When this happens, R0T becomes much more like a stereotypical zombie; violent and unstoppable.

R0T's current host died in a freak skating accident and was in the process of being buried when R0T found the body. Although a dead host is not ideal for the whole "staying alive no matter what" prerogative, it has become attached to the spirit of the human host; finding the joys in humanity that contradicts with its innate urge to survive by any means. The only struggle with a body such as this is that it is actively decomposing.
