headcanon (vocaloidressing, exitvoid)
(updated 12/2/11)
[YES I AM AWARE THE ANIME WILL FUCK UP ALL MY HEADCANON BUT LET ME ENJOY THIS WHILE I CAN hhhh. I WILL CANON UPDATE HER IN EXITVOID, but not in VDR because Brat Gold Saw is there to stay. :|]
Black★Gold Saw. She's the one with that oversized sawsword thing who had a one-minute cameo in the beginning of the OVA.
fuck yeah
Yeah, it wasn't much of an appearance. No one really knows where she came from, why she was fighting BRS, or who her human counterpart is (if she even has one, although it's speculated that she's the girl who had appeared for like two seconds in the first train scene). So it's all pretty much headcanon from here. DEAL WITH IT.
Background
OVA is not helpful at all. Kinda goes like this: Intro scene! In which BGS has a battle cameo! Stabs through Shooter! Runs off!
But Shooter survived, with scars.
(EDIT 8/21:)
lol forgot about older threads
OKAY SO.
Gold Saw intended to kill Shooter, hence mild surprise when encountering her in the DR, and Shooter later informed her of the death hug in a later thread which I completely forgot about then panicked about inconsistencies. SO I THINK IT'S ALL CLEAR THERE. splendor/farmbasket is a whole other story
BUT THEN.
I fucked up and had Gold Saw state that she believes that fightworld kind cannot die, which is like... uh what. Er. Yeah. Idiocy of mun. But then in another thread Shooter stated that they don't die 'permanently' so maybe I can let this one slide?
orz
Appearance/Abilities
So. Her hands. They're big metal skeletal claws. That kinda explains itself. Sort of. For now I'm assuming that Gold Saw is an amputee, similar to STR. I lied! Not really. Inconsistencies everywhere! The hands are part of her body according to my forever changing headcanon as to keep consistent with her Exitvoid self to avoid any muddling/confusion in the future. They're composed of some sort of metallic bone idek, it's still organic. She can't feel with them which is why she's always grabbing blades and crushing knives like nbd. Comes in handy often hahaha geddit.
She's a lot stronger and faster than an average human. Obviously. That's pretty much the gist of it.
Her right eye can ignite into a red flame. Saw generally utilizes this only in battle (it can be a power boost of some sort?) or whenever she feels the need to look intimidating. She also sports two dark red horns that give away her non-human heritage. As if the monster strength and flaming eye didn't already. She can feel with her horns, but it's closest to how we feel with our teeth- if one were to saw continuously at her horns she would feel pain but the nerves are still dull enough that she can impale steel surfaces and yank her horns out without even blinking.
Also Saw doesn't require food or sleep, but resting does help speed up the healing process for wounds (not that she thinks it does). As for wounds, she can withstand more pain than normal humans and light cuts and bruises generally disappear in a few hours. Something like stab wounds take much longer to heal, however. sob.......
Gold Saw's weapon of choice is King Saw, a saw-edged sword that is as tall as her and probably heavier. It's always on her person, but has no scabbard or wrappings, so she just carries it. As mentioned, it's covered in dents and scratches from previous battles. She can summon in and out (see: Rock Cannon) but prefers to keep it out at all times. It's the only thing she truly treasures.
Personality
VDR
Roughly half a year has passed since her arrival, and all of Gold Saw's dignity has flown out the window. Woe is her.
She would never acknowledge it, but living in the DR and dealing with all the crap thrown at her has actually softened her down. Of course, Saw still never thinks things out thoroughly and doesn't give a rat's ass if anyone gets killed or wounded in her chop-happy excursions (PROPERY DAMAGE FTW), but her interest in murdering others has toned down some. Mostly because there's hardly anyone worth killing in the DR. Useless singing robots.
So essentially, Saw is still bored most of the time yet she is slowly learning her lesson regarding fighting when there is no reason to. Or. When there is a bloody hole in her stomach. Could it be that Saw is actually finding other interests that don't involve destroying shit? Possibly. Or not.
Saw still finds humans akin to be, in lack of better words, worthless as shit. She takes great pride in her brute strength and believes that emotions and such would only weigh her down. It's a bit odd, considering that while she says this, she had already gone on a couple of frustration-induced rampages and lost a good chunk of her interest in slaughtering. OH NO, WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING. Who knows? Saw doesn't, for sure. Which is currently baffling her to no ends.
Not all has changed drastically! Saw still enjoys being an insufferable prick and making Shooter's life hell, and insulting/taunting others. And she still doesn't care about anything aside from her own nonexistent dignity. So we come to the subject of Luka! Luka is the only person... cat... who has been able to touch Saw so casually. The stranger thing is, Saw has finally given up on trying to push her away and now allows Luka to drape all over her. Saw's excuse? Tolerance is a virtue of strength, and she is strong dammit. So if she can't deal with Luka's molesting, that would be pathetic. Great logic considering she really isn't much of a tolerating person. Saw had already acknowledged that she is no longer interested in killing Luka as well, mostly because she had already attempted to and Luka cheated by teleporting out of range. Cheater.
Which, in turn, is weird considering that Saw never dwells over things. Problem? Nope. No problems, no worries, no anxieties. As mentioned, Saw really doesn't give a shit about anything. Even her own health, as shown when she tried to fight several times after being stabbed through the stomach by WRS/while weaponless when BRS broke King Saw. A bit stubborn, a bit stupid, who cares? And then Saw turned into a child out of nowhere for a couple weeks and suddenly people were calling her adorable and moe and dammit why wouldn't anyone take her seriously. This pretty much killed off what little dignity she had left and battered down at her pride. Well shit.
At the moment, Saw is less of the laid-back badass who isn't bothered by anything and more of the indignant violent chick who is constantly being molested by a catgirl. Yep. It's gonna take some time to sort all this development shit out. (lol idefk what I'm doing with her character anymore)
Uhhh kay updates! She finally reciprocated Luka's feelings... sort of. Not entirely. Saw acknowledged those feelings and returned a kiss at least. She's beginning to put less energy in resisting new experiences, seeing as how her boredom is finally getting the better of her and the loli experience kinda made her go low-key and avoid people, and hasn't fought since the day WRS impaled her back multiple times. Her relationship with Luka is neither mutually romantic nor platonic; while Luka has feelings for Saw (albeit for shallow reasons, ie Saw is hot and Luka is crazy), Saw is still awkward about the whole cuddling/kissing thing and is frustratingly confused regarding her own feelings and it turns out she's a terrible kisser as well.
wow this totally isn't helping her reputation as a badass huh
EV
SWEET REDEMPTION. This Saw hasn't been through all the stuff that VDR Saw has been through. So, gist of it is, she's aggressive, sadistic, and a generally unpleasant person. Doesn't take any crap and rather than wearily tolerating things (as VDR Saw has grown to do) she'd simply kill anyone who annoys her (though to prevent the need for bothering other muns 90% of the time for permission to decapitate I'm toning this part slightly down). Or viciously maim them, wait for them to heal, maim them again, and then kill them. And yet her arrogance is the only thing restraining her from simply going on a slaughtering spree- she only kills those who present a challenge, or those who she feels are worth killing (tiny children, you're in luck). Saw also believes that emotions are utterly useless and expresses as little as she can, though they are still there. As such, it isn't impossible to piss off Saw but it would be extremely difficult to do so. She's level-headed and is somewhere on the line between quiet observer and indiscriminate bulldozer.
And, of course, moralities. Silly human concepts. There is no good or evil as far as Saw is concerned, and kindness and cruelty are standards equally ridiculous. There are only the strong, weak, and those who are not even capable of putting up any sort of struggle (definitely not worth wasting her time on). All in the name of survival. As well as pretending that she has little (stupid human) emotions, Saw genuinely cannot feel love nor hatred. Two more worthless feelings that serve her no purpose. Of course, this doesn't stop her from simply disliking people, however.
Other Selves! Assumedly Saw has a human, and it is these humans that influence the Otherworld ladies regarding emotion and such (see: Dead Master/Yomi). As such, taking Saw's belief that emotions are worthless into account, she has convinced herself that such a bond between her and a human girl doesn't exist. It does, just like her emotions, and just like her emotions, Saw has denied its existence to the point where she doesn't even seem remotely human.
What a hypocrite! Actually, Saw is more of the cool/laidback type than the stony-faced stoic. Maybe not so talkative nor polite, but while she prefers solitude to the company of others, she isn't entirely opposed to conversation. Although her preferred language is the one with blades and bloodshed. Cooperating with others in missions is something she'll avoid if she can as well. And of course, Saw mostly doesn't give a shit about anything... except for potential worthy opponents. It's pretty much where her only interest lies- finding people who would be fun to fight and kill. And generally being a jerk and insulting others. And rampant property damage. And King Saw, the one exception to the fact that Saw doesn't value material objects. King Saw is her bb. Touch it and you die.
SO TEAL DEERED, she's an unpleasant and violent bitch. :|b
ALSO THE OTHERWORLD WHERE SHE COMES FROM IS PART-THRESHOLD (from Innocent Soul). UM. ... I'll clean up the continuity messes come January. In the meantime, Saw will have some knowledge of both the Otherworld and Threshold, both of which will probably be indistinguishable from the way she describes her world. Bleak, void of life, populated by fight-happy girls, also now filled with random monsters and Stagnated Souls. Eheyyyy.
Splendor
Somewhere between VDR and Exitvoid. A lot more polite than her rude and unsympathetic EV!self, although with an obviously sarcastic edge. She also enjoyed provoking the Locals by destroying property. Wasn't really interested in the wishes system, and mostly avoided other people when she could. She was also a bit in creeper territory, freaking out children at night for laughs and getting all up in Shooter's personal space.
Extra crap
