Destruction 3/???

[atomsandworlds.livejournal.com]

Personality: For a being who used to be in charge of change, Destruction is a very solid character. He’s kinder than most of his family by far, and to date is the only being to ever kiss Despair. He’s introspective, and this learned understanding makes him wise. He has a very pronounced sense of responsibility, and an admiration for humanity. More specifically, he likes progress. He likes change. Combine all of those things, the kindness, the introspection, the progress, and the responsibility, and it’s no wonder why he abandoned his realm.

He’s especially given to pondering, and pondering his nature at that. He often wonders about all the lives he’s touched, the people he’s met, the destinies he’s shaped, and has a degree of respect for humanity that, again, most of the other Endless don’t quite approach. In an effort to subvert and control his own nature, he’s been trying creation for quite some time now. He tends to take anonymous roles as opposed to being the source of things. And no, years of practice doesn’t mean he’s gotten particularly better at making things. He laughs off criticism, but he doesn’t let it stop him from leaving half finished sculptures lying around.

Destruction’s very eager to give out advice, not only to the new Dream but also almost anyone who seeks it. People often have trouble accepting change, after all, and the same goes for the Endless. Some changes even catch Destruction off guard. Leaving the family created a rift that, by and large, most of them are unable to fully deal with. In particular, Destruction’s close to Delirium, and often tries to protect her from further harm. Instead of changing himself, he tends to prompt other characters to change and develop. Even though destruction isn’t properly his fault anymore, he’s still its active outlet.

Because of this, he’s keenly aware that sooner or later, everything is destroyed and replaced by something new. Sooner or later, everything ends. He has a fondness for stars, because they give the illusion that things last forever.
