Unique Iterated Trait - Bonechill

Shellshock’s iterated trait is more atmospheric than most other Habits, being that alarms and sirens go off in a radius miles around him, but they go dead silent once he arrives at his destination. In addition to this, clouds of deadly gasses tend to follow him, choking him, and killing everything that breathes it in.


Backstory

While Shellshock isn’t the oldest iterated Habit, he certainly isn’t fresh. Hailing from Britain, Shelly is a real interesting case. He is a Habit who has PTSD. Not from just the great war, he had fun there, but from an incident that happened long afterwards.

In his iteration, Shellshock didn’t inhabit an Evan, he inhabited an Eddie, which helped contribute to many of his later actions. Eddie was real easy to inhabit, having taken over while Eddie was choking to death in a trench. Appearing as an angel of death, he forced Eddie back to his feet, back to work. There’s no time for death in the middle of a war after all.

Once it ended, Shellshock wasn’t satisfied. After all, so much carnage and misery doesn’t come around often, so he helped inspire the second world war. While he wasn’t actively participating in the biggest atrocities, he was still present, having an utter ball of a time shooting down fighter pilots and razing cities.

Of course, the second world war ended and left him with nothing to do… So he decided to take his homicidal urges out on other iterations. Unlike most Habits, he was aware of them much earlier on, finding a few during the first world war. So, he dove into the closest one and started massacring everyone in sight.

Then, he got a radio call from beyond the edge of everything and it broke him completely.
