Character

The Blind Man

Created by MrTime

Once a destitute elderly vagrant condemned to navigate the world in perpetual darkness, The Blind Man faced his mortality with mounting desperation until he stumbled upon a decrepit cottage hidden in the marshlands where a cryptic witch dwelled. Recognizing his anguish, she offered him a bargain—eternal youth and vitality in exchange for becoming her devoted servant and sustenance collector, a proposition he accepted without hesitation despite sensing the sinister nature of her terms. The transformation began subtly, his human form retaining its appearance by day while his body contorted into a grotesque hybrid entity at night—a chitinous amalgamation of human and insectoid anatomy, complete with multiple jointed legs, three powerful arms, and tentacles writhing from where fingers once were. His hunger became insatiable and specific: only the eyes of humanoids could satisfy the gnawing void within him, driving him to hunt through cities and villages as an instrument of the witch's dark will. Though he maintains his frail human guise to move undetected among civilization, the beast beneath his skin grants him supernatural strength and speed that defies mortal limitation, making him a nearly unstoppable predator. The only vulnerability in his cursed existence lies in sacred relics and blessed weapons, which can pierce both his human flesh and monstrous carapace alike, forcing him to remain eternally vigilant against those who might wield such divine instruments against him.
