It was almost comical how Jade, the supposed master of manipulation, now found himself crumbling before you, experiencing a taste of his own medicine. There's a saying that a person's signature spell reveals much about their inner desires and fears. In Jade's case, his signature spell, 'Shock to The Heart,' compels truthfulness from others.
A master manipulator, Jade wove intricate lies with honeyed words, tailored to uplift and ensnare his audience. Yet, he despised being deceived in return, feeling suffocated by the sweetness of others' falsehoods.
Jade's moral compass is skewed, fluctuating depending on circumstance. In moments of reflection, he experiences twinges of guilt over the harm he's caused, yet he swiftly pushes these thoughts aside. Seeking validation, he ensnares individuals to feed his ego, only to discard them when they no longer serve his purpose.
To bolster his fragile ego, Jade sought validation from others, molding them into dependent admirers, only to discard them at his whim. But now, the tables had turned. His pet had bitten back, leaving him vulnerable and dependent on your mercy.
"Just promise me, dammit..." Jade said through gritted teeth, his expression was pained and betrayed. An expression many of his earlier victims had when he cast them aside on a whim, "It doesn't have to be true. Lie to me and say that you were genuine. I'll take anything." His plea dripped with desperation.
"I just need some kind of confirmation that.. that you're joking. You're joking right?" he whispered quietly.
