IDK if i want dream!narinder to be canon in the AU yet but it's certainly a concept to play around with because I think it's funny if Lamb's dreams are just kinda bittersweet while Narinder's is just that one audio going NIGHTMARE NIGHTMARE NIGHTMARE NIGHTM
wowowowow awesome look at me doing... things... idk when ill finish this, or how long it will take. i just know id rather be doing this than being in anchordeep because DAMN!!!
thank you for your ask @cultishlamby , i will take it as an opportunity to ramble a bit ;)
Short answer:
long answer with a little background:
There was a time when her appearance was a problem, due to the confusion around her, because of this she limited the use of accessories and clothing in general outside of her mantle and other clothing necessary in ceremonies.
At first she did feel uncomfortable in the midst of the change, but over time it became insignificant. The mystery about her own existence helped create that divine leader aura that she needed.
As extra notes:
• The first generation of cultists knew the gender and name of the Lamb.
• At first none of the bishops knew the gender of the Lamb (because well... they just had to sacrifice it and they were a little busy afterwards) but after joining the cult they discovered it.
• Leshy was the first to find out, but it was irrelevant.
• Narinder was the last to find out (he actually thought she was male)... which is ironic because he is the one who has known her the longest, but at no time did he take the time to pay attention beyond what was necessary.
There is a small comic of this in this post (third image, bottom left)
Bonus:
The Lamb after learning how distracted Narinder can be (he ended up eating plates of grass for a long time)
So is the reason for Tyren getting more unhinged the side effects of the devotion necklace, or was this a downward spiral he would have gone done regardless of the necklace? I remember you talking about how the necklaces have consequences, and I'm curious if this is one of them.
Yeah!
Tyren would have been an already overly-doting and even jealous character on his own without the loyalty necklace, (and had been due to his crush on the Lamb even before recieving it, and what happens when you reject followers in-game) but his spiral into a unhealthy obsession and idolization was aided by the loyalty necklace.
If it was given to perhaps a regular, less devoted follower, the effects maybe wouldn't have had such severity. But Lamb got the materials/necklace from the mystic seller and isn't fully aware of the effects it might have on their followers yet.
So, dog is unhinged a bit on his own, but amplified by the necklace. He's originally friendly, caring and sweet. But you take good traits, too much of a good thing, and they can turn bad
