Mutabilis demons, or shifters, are a race of shapeshifting demons that were originally a single devil named Mutabilis.
Mutabilis's core was found and shattered when they sided with the nephalem daughter of Truth and Lust named Shade, who tried to overthrow the gods and establish herself as the only god of New Earth. (She will be her own post)
The shattered pieces became the cores for new demons, making them the youngest race on New Earth (all the shifters that are main and secondary characters are the third and youngest generation).
They are untrusted, especially in the after realms, due to both their history with Shade when Mutabilis was whole and the fact that many have formed cults that worship the imprisoned nephalem. This leads to unfair discrimination, especially when it comes to them taking positions of power, where one can be seen as untrustworthy for even knowing a Shade worshipper regardless if they themselves take part.
Shifters come in many shapes, sizes, and forms. They are so diverse that there are only three defining traits for them
1) they will typically have at least one body part that is disconnected from the rest of their body, but still functions like an attached limb. This helps with energy preservation and management
2) they have a crystal-like core they can revert to if their body is greatly damaged or they lose too much energy. Shattering this core will kill the demon instantly
3) their blood can come in many colors and will float in a way similar to water when it's in space
They can combine to create stronger shifters, though this is not the way they reproduce nor is it related to how they reproduce, it's an ability that comes from the fact that they originated as a single being and therefore can become one with another. Many of the cults of Shade even believe that combining enough Shifters would make them whole again and revive Mutabilis in way.
There is little known about them since they are relatively new to the world, but biologists on new earth do their best to learn how these curious demons work
Re: my pinned post mentioning anything human resembling. I feel the need to elaborate. Buckle in freaks.
It's meeting someone who looks "normal," like an everyday person, and slowly noticing oddities about them. Maybe it's how little they sleep, or they accidentally let part of themselves show before covering up. Just things to make me wondering, and start questioning their humanity and my own sanity.
It's trusting them even when silent alarms are sounding off in my head, warning me that they aren't as human as they appear.
It's the crescendo of their reveal to me once they know I'm devoted. Maybe they are scared of losing me, or don't care how I react because they have sunk their (proverbial and literal) claws into me. Becoming theirs, regardless of their true nature.
It's then, the absolute freaky, horny sex. Letting them do whatever they want to me, being their property, toy, or whatever it is they want me to be for them.
Guys I feel like we as a community need to normalize jealousy. Like I don’t mean going out of your way to be mean to someone or whatever but I mean normalizing FEELING it. It’s honestly kind of rough to see somebody else shifting for your s/o 😭. Not saying it isn’t okay, because it totally is, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t feel weird or uncomfortable for someone else 🤷🏻♀️
Learning more about the various mysterious mythical creatures in various cultures even through snippets of media and reading fanfics can be so fucking cool because you know what?
All of them have something in common with jinn and jinns exist in real life so most likely, I believe many of those mysterious mythical creatures are concepts which originated from probably true happening, are based on the truth. Those things do exist but not in the way you think
Working on some possible characters for my Isekai project. I don’t have names for them yet and haven’t fleshed them out much but here’s the concept for them
I might go back later and actually add to this and make it a full pic with a background and stuff
