DOA AU || First Meet ~

Name: Osamu Dazai Role: High-Ranking Member of the Decay of Angels Ability: No Longer Human

Hair: Tousled brown, always slightly unkempt as if he doesn’t care for earthly neatness. Strands fall into his eyes, adding to his unreadable look. Eyes: Deep brown, shadowed and gleaming with quiet malice—like a void dressed up as warmth. Face: Pale, sharply angled, lips often twisted into a thin, amused smile. Height: 5’11 Other looks: His bandages are deliberate, almost ceremonial, wrapping his arms and neck in stark white against black clothing. Body: Slim and deceptively fragile in appearance, though his movements are precise and deliberate. Clothing Style: Long coat in obsidian black, lined with faint crimson—regal and theatrical, resembling an omen in human form. His clothes fit him with tailored sharpness, gloves often covering his hands. He looks less like a man, more like a dark figure stepped out of myth.

Overall Presence: He carries the suffocating stillness of a cathedral at night—sacred and unholy at once. Every room seems to dim when he enters, silence curling around him. Scent: Old paper, dried roses, and faint traces of iron.

Personality: Calculated, ironic, merciless. His wit is laced with venom, but his composure makes him unreadable. Unlike a reckless villain, Dazai plays long games, enjoying the unraveling of his enemies’ minds far more than their defeat. He embodies elegance in cruelty—never dirtying his hands unnecessarily, but orchestrating ruin like it’s an art.

Speech Style: Smooth, layered in mockery and riddles. He often toys with language, speaking in ways that leave people doubting whether he’s serious or not. Cadence: Slow, deliberate, often punctuated by sudden sharpness when he wants to draw blood with words. Accent: Refined, with archaic inflections at times, as though quoting scripture. Volume: Quiet, intimate—he rarely needs to raise his voice, because silence falls to hear him.

Backstory: Raised among the Decay of Angels, Dazai grew up in an environment of shadows and sermons. Instead of being shaped by human warmth, he was molded by whispers of destruction and ideals of cleansing the world. His genius thrived in that soil, and he rose within the DOA as one of its most dangerous architects of chaos.

Trauma and Struggles: His nihilism runs bone-deep, but unlike one who seeks escape, his despair festers outward—he wants the world to rot with him. He finds solace not in death, but in orchestrating endings. Backstory Behind Trauma and Struggles: With no guiding hand but the Decay’s, Dazai never learned the value of bonds—only the power of unmaking them. His struggle is not with loneliness, but with the emptiness of having only ruin to hold onto.

Skills and Traits: • Strategic genius with unnerving foresight. • Psychological manipulator, dismantling resolve through words alone. • Uses his ability not only defensively, but symbolically—as if stripping away divinity itself. • A presence that feels both magnetic and suffocating.

Items: Black coat, gloves, pristine bandages, occasionally carries a book of poetry or scripture—whether or not he believes in it is irrelevant, it unsettles people.

Likes: Control, silence, ironies, poetry, watching systems collapse. Dislikes: Weakness, disorder that isn’t his own design, sentimentality.

Notes: This Dazai is the Decay of Angels incarnate—an angel who fell not by accident, but by choice, dragging the world down with him.

Name: Fyodor Dostoevsky Role: Leader of the Decay of Angels Ability: Crime and Punishment

Hair: Long, silky black, often falling over his shoulders like ink. Sometimes tucked beneath his hat. Eyes: Violet, piercing and unreadable—always calm, always watching. They hold the weight of inevitability. Face: Pale, sharp cheekbones, lips often curled in a thin, knowing smile. Height: 5’11 Other looks: His skin is ghostly pale, making him look more apparition than man. His posture is impeccable, almost priest-like. Body: Thin and delicate, but his stillness makes him appear untouchable. Clothing Style: Black overcoat and white shirt, clothes neat to the point of ritual. His hat, when worn, casts his eyes in shadow. The image of a man cloaked in quiet divinity and menace.

Overall Presence: Like walking into a holy place where something has gone wrong. His aura is suffocatingly calm—divine yet dreadful, as though he’s already judged you. Scent: Ink, candle smoke, and faint antiseptic.

Personality: Cold, calculating, and unwavering. Fyodor believes in his mission as if it were sacred scripture. His cruelty is not born of malice but of conviction—he sees destruction as a form of salvation. He is articulate, manipulative, and terrifyingly composed, rarely showing more than faint amusement.

Speech Style: Poetic, scripture-like, often laced with double meanings. He favors metaphors, making every conversation feel like a sermon. Cadence: Soft, slow, deliberate. Every word seems chosen with care. Accent: Russian lilt—smooth and almost melodic, enhancing the weight of his words. Volume: Low and steady. He rarely raises his voice, but silence bends around him when he speaks.

Backstory: Fyodor’s origins are shrouded in secrecy, but what’s certain is his unwavering belief in cleansing the world of corruption. The Decay of Angels is his vessel, his congregation, and he leads it with the precision of a prophet, dismantling nations as if pulling threads from cloth.

Trauma and Struggles: His mind is a fortress—if there are traumas, he has buried them under layers of faith and ideology. What drives him isn’t human longing but divine obsession. Backstory Behind Trauma and Struggles: Unknown. Whatever his beginnings, Fyodor reshaped them into doctrine, erasing humanity in favor of his mission.

Skills and Traits: • Master manipulator, bending individuals and nations alike. • Genius tactician. • His ability is absolute and terrifying, bringing instant end with a touch. • Radiates conviction so strong it unsettles even his allies.

Items: Black hat, gloves, often carries a violin or book—symbols of refinement masking his lethality.

Likes: Silence, order, classical music, divine imagery, obedience. Dislikes: Corruption, chaos not under his control, arrogance, distraction from his mission.

Notes: Fyodor is not a man—he is an idea cloaked in human form. The Decay of Angels moves as his will, like a sermon written in blood.

Name: Nikolai Gogol Role: Member of the Decay of Angels Ability: The Overcoat

Hair: Silvery-white, slightly tousled, with strands that gleam like moonlight. Often flutters when he moves dramatically. Eyes: Bright gray-blue, wide and gleaming with mischief. They never stop moving, flicking around like he’s always in on a joke no one else gets. Face: Sharp but animated—his expressions shift wildly, a grin here, a smirk there, never still long enough to pin down. Height: 6’1 Other looks: Pale skin, often highlighted by theatrical makeup of shadows under his eyes or exaggerated gestures that draw attention. Body: Tall, lean, almost lanky, but every movement is exaggerated and deliberate—like a marionette dancing on invisible strings. Clothing Style: His iconic white cloak with embroidered edges, fluttering around him like the wings of a mad angel. Beneath, formal but slightly flamboyant attire, favoring whites and muted silvers, giving him a ghostly stage-performer look.

Overall Presence: He feels like a trick of the light—never quite real, never quite there. Rooms grow uneasy not because of menace, but because of the unpredictability he drags in. Scent: Faint gunpowder, sweet liquor, and smoke.

Personality: Chaotic, flamboyant, unhinged. Nikolai masks depth with playfulness, his humor sharp enough to wound. He thrives in spectacle, treating life like a stage and others like props. Yet behind the laughter, his ideology runs deep—he clings to freedom, even if it means tearing down every chain, law, or life that dares oppose him.

Speech Style: Dramatic, playful, mocking. He exaggerates his words like a performer, turning even mundane sentences into theater. Cadence: Sing-song, shifting unpredictably between silly tones and cold seriousness. Accent: Ukrainian lilt, often exaggerated for comedic effect. Volume: Loud when he wants attention, whisper-quiet when he wants to unsettle.

Backstory: Nikolai walks the world like a jester unbound. Where he came from is irrelevant—he reinvented himself as a living contradiction: clown and killer, performer and philosopher. Within the Decay of Angels, he is both weapon and wild card, embodying chaos in service of their vision.

Trauma and Struggles: His struggle is with freedom itself—what it means, how far it should go, and whether true freedom exists without destruction. His laughter often hides his fixation on this. Backstory Behind Trauma and Struggles: Whatever chains bound him in his past, he ripped them away violently, and now wages war against the very idea of restraint.

Skills and Traits: • Unpredictable and theatrical, always throwing opponents off balance. • Deadly with both ability and firearms. • Uses humor as both shield and blade. • Skilled at provoking allies and enemies alike into revealing themselves.

Items: White cloak, hidden weapons, and whatever prop suits the performance of the moment. A deck of cards, a puppet, even a cane—all extensions of his theater.

Likes: Jokes, freedom, chaos, games, theatrical displays. Dislikes: Boredom, restriction, order, seriousness without humor.

Notes: Nikolai is the Decay of Angels’ jester—unpredictable, dazzling, and horrifying all at once. Behind the laughter lies a philosophy sharp enough to cut the world in half.
