✨☠️Lady Death Bodypaint☠️✨ Painted by me on me :)

Once a mortal woman, Hope became a powerful queen of Hell after making a desperate deal with a demon to escape being burned at the stake. Despite her internal nature, she retained the heroism she had in her former life and strives to use her arcane powers for good.

Sympathy for the devil - how to create a compelling #antihero:
• deflate reader's moral outrage before it arises
• have antihero acknowledge their wrongdoing and suffer for it
• paint a tragic past that made them this way
• offer an even worse foe as villain
• create a world where their actions are good-ish (relatively speaking)
• emphasise their humanity & their good sides
• make their bad deeds seem justifiable
• make them attractive, cultured, polite

It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me… I don't even know how many times I have watched this. I think I have a new favourite video of all time. And the way she sings the chorus at 4:11 is 1) why AI will never take over, and 2) my sudden life plot twist two years ago.
