What? I'm just here, it's not my fault you can't type... *giggles*
Name: Annabel
Age: About.... 20 something? It'll be explained more in the history
Weight: Varies, by default, probably less than a kilogram.
Height: varies, by default, 6 inches.
Job: Typo-Demon
Race: Spiritual entity (NOT A DEMON <- )
Appearance: For now, see picture, will work on this when I decide what she looks like, though it's likely to be the above or similar.
History: In some beliefs, the gods and the demons and all the various assorted in between are not always there, they are created much later in life by an event or circumstance, the arrival of the internet to the World of men caused many such beings to come into existence, there wasn't a lot there to go with though so the only creatures that were creature were fairly weak. Each time a new event hit the internet a new minor demon or god whathaveyou, was created. The one we are looking into has apparently always been there but having no real purpose, just latching onto any source of power it can grab and just drifting lazily from one to another. It started as simple things, things that always caused anger in some way from the users. Never being the cause but always drawing power from their curses and prayers for it to be fixed.
It gained its height with the birth of dial-up, hundreds upon thousands of people all screaming curses and hate towards a series of irritating sounds, it was wonderful, she actually managed to stay at a good 6 foot and look properly demonic for when she chose to appear before a human and claim to be the cause of the slow dial-up, it was worth it too. Having someone to actually blame and shout profanity at when the connection was taking longer than usual meant all of that energy and power went straight to her rather than her usual siphoning off.
It wouldn't last, with the birth of broadband and the loss of her precious dial-up she had to find a new way to leech power from her preferred medium. She lost her power again and returned to being tiny, desperately searching for another outlet she could use. Rage quits were taken and the demons of it were very touchy about another even going near it, trolling already had several powerful entities... And then she found it. It was small in each case, but there was so many little cases at any one moment that it actually amounted to a serviceable supply of emotion. Typing errors, or Typos. People made them, and that minor pang of guilt, shame and anger at their mistake could be used, to someone tuned to stealing what little energy they could here and there it was perfect.
She renamed herself the typo demon and using the same trick as before, getting people to blame her for their typos only added to the, well in a weird way, belief that she received. Even before she existed as the role everyone seemed to know there were actually little typo gremlins or whatever, now it has a face they can blame, and in doing so empower. But to clarify, no she really can't cause you to make mistakes despite her own claims.
Personality: Working on it : /
Powers: She has a power meter, everything she does to extent drains from it, from maintaining a corporal form to summoning items into existence. Annabel would have godlike powers... If only she had enough energy to supply it.
How she gets power: Her primary source of energy comes from the slight embarrassment people have when making a mistake in typing.
She can also drain strong emotions from people near her, leaving them without that feeling suddenly but otherwise unharmed. This oddly enough isn't as big a drain as the typo shame because its such a brief source. But she can often or not do something flashy with the trick.
She also recently found that she was generating hatred for herself for causing typos, something which is adding a little to her energy pool when she is around, but it has the same limits as the strong emotions.
The girl has acquired a secondary power supply, one that's a little more constant than typo shame. She has yet to disclose this but used the power of flagg's love for her to go and fetch it and loves him dearly for caring so much about her.
Rumours and the facts ^_^: Feel free to know these if you happen to be in a technological setting, but bare in mind. Most of it is wrong. Don't expect this to happen.
She is the cause of, and reason for typing errors - False, I really don't, i just feed off the emotion, however little from the people causing them.
She appears at every typing error and looms - Okay, there's a little truth in this, I'm aware of where typos are happening and, yes I can appear, but I don't bother for the most part. It's just effort making myself look right.
She is taller than any man and unbelievably fearsome when dealing with people who overuse the spell checker - This one started as a bit of a weird accident. I caught someone giving an excessive amount of emotion and went to see, naturally I wanted to look impressive and made myself appear to be a big monster like demon. He actually could see me which was odd and i found out he was like using the spell checker every time he wrote a sentence. So I kinda threatened him about the spell checker to stop him using it....
The dreaded Typo demon eats those that spell check too often - This one... This started as a fanfick. Long story, but some vore nut decided that after that little stunt with the spell checker that I must at some point eat the spell checkers to ensure typos.
A lot of work in prgress, but its a start
