Jan. 31st, 2024 01:47 pmJINX (TITIVILLUS)
Titivillus, who is currently going by Jinx, is known as the Patron Demon of Scribes because they can blame any mistakes they make on him. He is someone who rejoices in watching people get tripped up. Have you ever accidentally texted your shit-talk to the person you were shit-talking about? That was Jinx. Had an embarrassing auto-correct? That was Jinx, too. Were reading a book and got completely taken out of it by a typo that you can't understand existing after endless rounds of edits? Still Jinx.
He loves sowing discord between humans, however small it may be, with small mistakes like this. Though his original purpose was to use the overheard words of church-goers against them in Hell, he has a lot more fun using any creature's words against them right here, right now.

appearance
Since he is possessing someone, he just looks exactly like Matthew Gray Gubler right now. But in his demon form, "Titivillus appears as a humanoid creature covered in greenish-blue fur, donkey ear, owl-like eyes, and a serpent for a tail. He has a long and bloody tounge that constantly dripping with greenish poison which caused scribes and preachers to fumble with their words." (Quotes bc I stole it from Wikipedia ty)
abilities
background
🖊️ Titivillus was born when the first chisel was put to stone in whatever-the-fuck A.D. He stopped counting his age a long, long time ago.
🖊️ As human language developed, and so did their means of recording, his purpose became known to him. So much hate, bitterness, and resentment could be generated from one bad misspelling, from one poorly-worded sentence. He loved tearing human relationships apart. The lonelier they were, the more easily influenced.
🖊️ He got a much more boring assignment when the churches came into being. Listen to the churchgoers. Capture their sinful whispers or badly uttered prayers. Bring them down to Hell to be used in their judgment when they die. He did that, of course, for some hundreds of years, and it was fun enough when he got to back to Hell and actually watch the words get used against them, but that didn't happen as often as he'd have liked.
🖊️ Eventually, he kind of just fucked off from the church thing, and he hasn't been back to Hell since. He reports to Belphegor down there and he'd really just like to avoid the lecture, thanks. He still did it sometimes, anyway.
🖊️ He doesn't really know how Cadmus found him, but, since he was growing bored again, he truly did not care. Humans were tiresome; maybe torturing supernaturals would be more fun.
