a real p03 moment
sorry
video game night
Most of you already saw the news of last week from twitter, but I was waiting on the official convention photos to be up and post it here. After about 7 years of cosplaying, this nerd won best costume đ I'm still shook and still have some sort of imposter syndrome about it, but from the bottom of my heart, thank you ⤠This has been a total win
One, admittedly strange, headcanon of mine is that Leshy doesnât have a voice- at least not in the typical sense!Â
You see- Leshy speaks, or rather communicates via telepathy by transmitting the message he wishes to convey directly into the mind of whomever he is talking to via (what I believe to be) a mixture of magic and pure will!Â
Itâs why, unlike, say Grimora, Magnificus, or even P03, Leshy does not have those tonal notes during his dialogue. Yes, Leshy does drag out the bass boosted wubbing depending on the curtness of what he is saying. There are very, very minute variations in his overall presentation of those notes. Still, itâs not like Grimoraâs laughter and hums, the primordial whispers of the damned Magnificus has going on or the beeps and boops of P03.Â
But for Leshy, this lack of outright expression is deliberate! Why? Because overemphasis in the tone of the wubbing as he transmits his words into your mind will overpower the voice your mind will instinctively assign him. See, whenever Leshy transmits the words into the minds of whomever he is speaking to, they are just that, words. However, when your brain finds it difficult to compute these words as voice from another person without the sound to back it up or differentiate it from your own thoughts.Â
So, your brain will instinctively assign a voice to these words you have transmitted into your head, and that voice becomes Leshys! Something wholly unique to him based on your perception of him, the manner with which he speaks and his eloquence. And Leshy? Leshy not only gets this (hence why during the âbossâ battles, he switches up the words and slang chosen. Itâs to differentiate them from the voice you assign him and to richen the world heâs trying to create for you.) But Leshy LOOOOOOVES this. Words cannot describe how much he enjoys this phenomenon, and, to maintain it, he gives you very little to work with in terms of determining a voice beyond the tone and curtness with which he would be speaking them!Â
Standard procedure to tell when Leshy considers you very close is asking earnestly how he sounds to you. Itâs just so personal and intimate, and a part of him wants to reassure himself that he doesnât sound too harsh when he doesnât intend to. Which is a line of questioning that opens a wholeass can of worms because it can and will be the only time you learn Leshy is capable of telepathy and uses it to communicate with you. Due to the fact his throat isnât capable of forming any words beyond guttural, bestial sounds like bellowing, growling, barking, howling, etc.
( Which is super intimidating until the moment Leshy wholeheartedly believes he loses you in the forest around his cabin and starts bleating after you like an orphaned calf, and youâre left with the sobering, albeit hilarious realization âoh, so it doesnât only apply for the badass parts of the animal kingdom!â )
Pages of doodles showin how I think this wizo looks
This weekend, I was morphed! Transformed! into the great wizard Magnificus at the KCC! After I cosplayed Leshy last year, I knew I had to cosplay my favourite Scrybe next. It was super fun getting to meet with other Inscryption cosplayers and roam around together as a little indie game posse :3 Bonus pics below the cut!
