Sanguimancer
is a Yogscast Dark Fic by Mindful Wrath.
Parvis found a little book with a little name and a lot of notes, and a fascinating little orb that bites him sometimes. Bored of spending his time with Martyn, he goes to find the owner of the book—but finds him a lot less willing to accept an apprentice than he'd hoped.
This fanfic provides examples of:
- Bittersweet Ending While Rythian is killed, several other Yogs were killed in the resulting damage, and basically everyone is severely traumatized.
- Create Your Own Villain: Rythian didn't want to get back into blood magic, but Parvis pushed him into it by refusing to stop trying to do it.
- Hearing Voices: Parvis starts to hear a voice that often belittles him for how he lets Rythian treat him and other things.
- Murderers Are Rapists: Rythian will often before killing his victim attempt to use his control over them to force them to perform sexual acts, though Parvis will usually make him stop pretty quickly.
- No Sympathy: Rythian rarely shows any sympathy for what he does to people, only occasionally showing it with Parvis but that is far in between.
- Self-Harm: A side effect of blood magic withdrawal and Rythian chopped off the tips of his fingers to give himself obsidian claws.
- Trapped in Villainy: Parvis, he wants to escape Rythian, but Rythian's mind fuckery, his fear, and the fact anyone who comes to save him dies if there lucky, there is just no seeming way for him to escape the evil Rythian has him do.
