>kars headcanons<

these aren't xreader, just general headcanons i have for kars. some of these are bit more of an analysis and some are more headcanony. he's just such a,, curious fellow..

i'll have some karsxreader headcanons out shortly too

Characterization: 

Kars is... a complex man. He is a philosopher and a scientist, regarded as a genius and a prodigy even by his own people. He has his own morals, beliefs, and work ethic. He keeps to himself for the most part, an introvert by nature. He isn't easily swayed, especially when his pride is on the line.

I believe he was turned away by the rest of his race for being too forward thinking, his investigations leading him to topics his race would regard as a taboo (such as wanting to conquer the Sun). He ended up embracing his life as an outcast, though, as it meant nobody would bother him in his studies (maybe aside for Esidisi). 

This hermit lifestyle did come with downsides, of course. He never really learned how to fully socialise with others, and never got used to it either. For that reason, he avoids it and would much rather send Esidisi or Wammu out to interact with others whilst he prefers to work as the mastermind behind the scene.

He's actually deeply afraid of emotional vulnerability. He may not even recognize it as fear himself, and he would certainly rather be thrown into lava again that admit it to anyone, but the prospect of laying yourself bare to someone only to have them turn you away deeply disturbs him, which is part of the reason why he keeps up such harsh defensive walls.

He's of course very inquisitive, and would likely be quite curious of modern technology despite his disdain for humanity. The only downside is that with his level of intelligence, he can figure out pretty much any piece of tech or software in a matter of minutes, and once he does that spark of curiosity fades and he is entirely uninterested. What need does he have for silly mortal toys, after all?

He's somewhat of a busybody and always has to be doing something. If he can't distract himself with work, he'll find something else to do. Has an extensive collection of books and scrolls with all sorts of knowledge, he likes to document knowledge of his own too. Sometimes, he'll carve beyond just the stone masks, making figurines and sculptures out of wood and stone. Is also an incredibly skilled artist, both with sketching and painting. Is there anything he can't do?

Identity: 

As a Pillarman, some of his beliefs and views are undoubtedly going to have been influenced by the culture he was raised in. I headcanon Pillarman culture to be somewhat similar to Aztec culture, perhaps it was the Aztecs who were influenced by Pillarmen.

Kars is somewhere on the asexuality spectrum. Perhaps he's not entirely sex repulsed, but rather that he's always had bigger priorities to worry about. It can also tie into the deep dislike of emotional vulnerability. He's not a virgin by any means, but he's also not constantly horny. 

Similarly, I think his native tongue would be a mix of Nahuatl and a language made by the Pillarmen. He's of course still fluent in it, but rarely speaks it as it brings up too many memories of the past. Perhaps sometimes, with Esidisi or Wammu. 

Not too much into music, especially not human music, but he does have an appreciation for classical and old rock. Absolutely hates pop, children's music, or anything that has a 'constant loop of the same simple lines', as he finds the reptitive noise and the shallowness of the lyrics entirely irritating.

Appearance: 

His ears are slightly pointed, and he has multiple piercings in the cartilage as well as the lobes. He prefers gold jewellry to silver, as it brings out the warm undertones of his skin. 

His pupils are like a cat's, usually narrower slits but able to dilate immensely if he wants them to.

He loves to dress lavishly, and he has no issue wearing both 'masculine' and 'feminine' clothes. While more masculine styles keep him comfortable with a good range of motion in battle, he enjoys the regality of silk dresses, sheer scarves he can don over his shoulders or around his hips, and luxurious gold jewellry to wear on all parts of his body.

Smells somewhat musky/earthy with a little bit of cocoa butter. It's a very inviting, warm, but still somewhat masculine scent. His hair has the lighter, fragrant scent of the hair oils he uses. He doesn't use cologne or deodrant, rather having a very strict and extensive personal hygiene routine.

He doesn't really sweat. For one, he's immensely strong, so an activity that would take a huge amount of strength for a human would be as easy as lifting a glass of water for him. Furthermore, his body regulates its own temperature much more effortlessly than the human body, so sweating is unnecessary.

Trivia/Uncategorized: 

Has been the inventor of multiple items long before humanity later thought of them themselves, or even later found his work and claimed it. Could include stuff like chess, writing tablets, compasses, several instruments, and different types of building tools.

On a similar note, Kars has also probably been responsible for at least a couple major history events. Definitely was the indirect (hell, maybe even the direct) cause of a couple major wars, scientific breakthroughs, and political events. They're probably so insignificant to him that he hardly remembers them.

Has no need to eat regular food, but he does it anyway on occasion, purely for the simple pleasure of the taste. Doesn't eat meat. His favourite foods are green apples, sweetbreads, and dark chocolate.

Kars is fond of small animals. He's fond of all animals really, but especially the smaller prey ones. Definitely both a cat and a dog person and would be unable to choose.

Also, animals are weirdly drawn to him? You'd think the frail little deer would run away if it saw the humongous terrifying Aztec god, but instead they all flock toward him. Even he isn't quite sure why it happens, but he takes advantage of the situation to pet them anyway. (Certified Disney princess)

>welcome to my pillarman appreciation blog<

some stuff about me - i'm crypt, my ao3 user is cryptixani, i'm a chronic pillarman simp. i do self-ship with kars but i don't intend to make that any sort of focus on this blog, nor to post much content about it. but yeah i'm a teeny bit biased.

this blog is for the pillarmen - mainly based on fanfic and writing, but also other stuff too!! i might reblog other pillarman content, post random thoughts i have about them, basically anything pillarman related. these boys need some more love. and i think about them way too much.

<3

'crypt, what kind of stuff can i send you?'

ez question. anything you want, really. fic requests, headcanon requests, completely inane rambling, pictures of your cat, your crazy theories/headcanons about the pillarmen (love those), facts about your oc's.

would also like to note that this blog is very much selfship friendly!! if you wanna send me any sort of rambles about your f/o's, even if they're not the pillarmen, i'm happy to listen and respond.

i feel like dni lists are a bit useless, people will do what they want, but just know - if i see you're a minor i will block. if i see you're a bigoted fuck (racist, homophobe, transphobe, etc etc) i will block.

>request rules<

• i only write fics, headcanons, drabbles, etc for the pillarmen [kars, esidisi, wammu, and santana] on this blog. general questions/discussions about other characters is fine ofc.

• i only write character x reader, i don't really do character x character unless its kars x esidisi with the reader in a polycule or something. [i will not write kars or esidisi x wammu or santana whether reader is involved or not.]

• i can write oneshots, drabbles and headcanons. there's no given length for any of them, it more just depends on how motivated i am at the time/how much detail you give me.

• i can write male, female, and gender neutral reader. i'll default to gender neutral if a request doesn't specify.

• i do write nsfw.

• i don't write non-con or dub-con.

• i don't write eroguro. horror and gore themes are fine, but i'm not gonna sexualize it.

• i don't write for the following kinks; scat, piss, feet, ageplay, raceplay, bestiality, pedophilia, and incest.

<3

not really rules, more of a heads up:

• don't count on me writing two parters, continuations, etc. it can happen very occasionally but i lose motivation for stuff like that pretty quick.

• check bio for if my requests are open or closed.

• i literally don't care about spam liking/reblogging. do it to your hearts content. in fact, it makes my silly little brain happy.
