⌈ CHARACTER SECTION ⌉
Character: Sae Kurosawa
Age: Died at 15. No canon age as at the events of Fatal Frame 2 but if All God's Village disappeared in the Meiji period, Sae could be more than 80 years old when Mio and Mayu Amakura were trapped inside the village
Canon: Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly
Canon Point: Chasing after Mayu at the Earth Bridge
Background:
Character Background, Character quotes, Butterfly diaries, Letter to Yae, Fluorite recordings of Sae.
Personality:
In life Sae had no one else but her sister Yae and the Tachibana twins for company, and as such Sae had always been afraid that she would lose them. She's especially fearful of losing her sister Yae, to whom she is very very close to. Her fear of being separated from Yae defined her more extreme actions to the end of her life and beyond. Sae was so attached to Yae that the thought of them growing up, finding their own individuality and living their own separate lives frightened her; even if they remained close sisters, Sae could not accept anything less than them being together forever...literally.
However, Sae's love for Yae became twisted after death. When Sae was killed, her intense longing for her sister and her despair that Yae had left her combined with the Darkness in the Hellish Abyss, turning her into a murder-happy vengeful spirit. Crazed with grief and heart broken that her sister did not return to her to complete the ritual, Sae slaughters everyone in the village. She continues to wait for her sister to return to the village to complete the ritual and "merge" herself with her sister. In the meantime, any unfortunate soul that ends up in the village will be hunted down and killed by the various spirits in the village, including Sae.
It's suggested that Sae's psyche has never always been whole even when alive, but Sae turned completely insane after the failed ritual. She laughs maniacally and sports a big, crazed smile whenever she chases Mio around, over-joyed to see her "sister". She cries when Mio rejects her and refuses to join her in the ceremony, but laughs at the same time because she still sees a way for them to be together. Her longing for her sister has turned into a possessiveness, and Sae has become very ruthless in her pursuit of her sister. It is implied in one ending of the game that Mayu has been possessed by Sae ever since she was young, suggesting that Sae had wanted to complete the ritual via the Amakura twins since they were young girls.
Sae is a rather selfish person as well. For all that she loves her sister, she was very willing to put Yae through the immense psychological pain of the ritual if it meant that Sae would be together with her sister forever. In death, this translates to the above mentioned ruthlessness. Sae is very determined to get what she wants...even if it leads to the death of her sister, whom she unfortunately mistakes Mio Amakura for.
However she has her moments of compassion. Before her death she grieves incredibly when Itsuki dies, and she and Yae both try to help Seijuro Makabe escape the village. And when the fragments of Yae that had attached to Mio appeared to her sister, Sae almost immediately forgave her sister. She resolved herself to complete the ritual alone, blaming herself for Itsuki's death. And Sae is extremely sad and lonely both in life and in death. During rare moments in the game, Mio sees flashes of Sae's sadness and pain, and at one point she hears Sae's thoughts, that she no longer wants to kill anymore. Sae painfully waits for her sister to be set free of the Darkness and laid to rest. Unfortunately while these thoughts of hers may have existed in the past, the Sae that chases Mio around seems to have lost those feelings, her mind and heart broken after having to reenact the failed ritual over and over again.
Sae never lets go of the hope that her sister would return to her and complete the Crimson Ceremony. But that hope has been corrupted into a bloodthirsty desire, and Sae continues to lure souls into the village, killing any who crosses her path.
Including her sister Yae. She will never let Yae leave the village. Even if they can't become one...she'll never let her sister go, ever again.
Abilities:
Sae is an extremely powerful hostile spirit. Her abilities are as listed:
- Possession. Sae can possess people. Her possession is extremely powerful. One of the in-game endings show that even if she is exorcised, she can still leave parts of herself inside the people she's possessed, returning through them.
- Instant death by touch. This will be nerfed in-game to life-force drains that will leave people very weak. Sae can still kill by touch, but will need to do so over a period of time.
- Sae cannot be harmed by normal means. The only way to harm her is by using the Camera Obscura. For in-game considerations, other purification/holy items and/or spells will also work, but these items must be blessed by a priest/priestess. Even so, she cannot be fully exorcised; only reunion with her sister will allow her to rest in peace.
- Sae can obscure people's vision with a red sticky mist. The mist can be removed by using holy/purification items.
- Teleportation and intangibility. Like all ghosts, Sae can move through objects and walls. She can teleport from place to place as well.
Alignment: Peromei. Sae fluctuates between moments of intense grief and despair that she died alone and will be left behind by her sister, to laughing hysterically and maniacally with joy that she's close to reuniting with her sister. She clings to the hope that Yae will return to her.
Other: NA
⌈ SAMPLE SECTION ⌉
Sample:
She had been in a dark place. Her sister...her sister had been right in front of her, and then she'd ran away. Why, Yae? Why did she look so frightened? Why did she not want to become one, as their fate dictates they should?
It does not matter. Someday, Yae will return to her. Yae won't leave her behind in the darkness. Yae will remember their promise, and they'll complete the ritual. She'll never be parted from her sister ever again.
To Sae Kurosawa's insane mind, she's still in All God's Village. And the edges of the island, with the terrible poisonous landscape below, she thinks of them as portals to the Hellish Abyss. So, Yae has to be here somewhere. Yae can't escape from the village. And if she tries, then Sae has to follow her and bring her back.
Trapped between a deep grief at losing her sister and a dark, excited joy that the ceremony was close to completion, Sae Kurosawa begins to roam the city of Verens at night. The darkness born from her grief cloaks her in shadows and she passes almost unseen...although men and women glance uneasily about them, turning their collars up from the unnatural spike in the cold, only to be confused when it turns to a scorching heat. Machines go haywire, lights flicker on and off, fluctuating from bright bursts to being snuffed out.
And eventually, a request goes up on the taskboard, written in a sticky, shining red. No matter how hard they try try scrub off the ink (or at least, they hope it's ink), the message remains there, lingering and never fading. It's a message written with a deep sisterly love, a hope of reunion that never ends...and the obsessive desire for death.
"Yae. Don't leave me."
Questions: I'm nerfing Sae's death touch, but I was wondering if being touched by Sae could destroy emotion drops as well? Since her touch is still destroying people's life energy, just at a slower pace. This is mostly to make Sae a dangerous foe to have in Emp, where emotions are pretty important. I'm very OK if the mods would prefer Sae not to do so!
