( imeeji ) scars for heart(game)s
If you signed up for Hellfire's heart game, please use this post to share information about your character's important scars.
In this case, "scars" can be emotional as well as physical; as long as it left an indelible mark on the character, it can count. You can use Hellfire's personal definition of scars as a guideline, if you like! The ✦ symbols indicate how much Hellfire relies on that part of the definition. (But once again, it's totally optional; use whatever definition is fun for you.)

-The major one is the combination of his tattoos and the memory of what they represent: that time he got ritually tortured in order to become the embodiment of all the world's evil in order to cleanse everyone else of their sins. That's a pretty big scar.
-There's a scar on his tongue in the shape of an X, left by Lucifel as a mark of love/connection/ownership.
-There was this one time Doodle got magically decapitated and it really sucked. Not so much because he died but because his significant others were there and they cried a lot.

A large portion of them are from shrapnel/getting pinned under a huge chunk of metal for the better part of three days.
Another large chunk of them are from the daemons on his world.
The rest are all Imeeji stuff. He has never actually deleted any scars in Imeeji, so there are Quite a Few.
Here's a mildly NSFW scar map, though it's somewhat out of date, as he's had more Imeeji scars since.

and you already know what's up with those, vis a vis the ex-ghoul life, so.

Mom trauma, child soldiering and abandonment issues adding up to severe emotional clusterfuckage so sometimes she doesn't know how to person and then reality almost gets destroyed.
Imeeji specific:
- She bought off all her physical scars recently.
- Her early Imeeji days left her pretty paranoid and mistrustful of the intentions of others. And disillusioned. Memories exacerbated that.
- Almost fading from existence when she swapped units continues to be terrifying and there are sometimes panic attacks about that.

Sabre has bought off all her Betrayal/etc scars but she still has the (canon) scar on the back of her neck from the chip implant
As for Imeeji emotional baggage, she has issues around not being ~good enough or ~important enough to her unit; her unit preferring the "before times" because she wasn't there; always being people's second/third/last/etc pick; being considered disposable/an acceptable sacrifice because [Zrael time]

•
This is a scar that cuts all the way through him, from his chest all the way to his back. IMPALEMENT SCARS, BABY!
• Probably a bunch of other scars from fighting a lot, but that's the biggest physical one.
• Once upon a time, he was raised by his grandfather and loved him very much and it was a foundational part of his life until the man got framed for bombing a train track, lost all his livelihood and respect, died of a broken heart and their country got annexed, leaving Crow / Ordine all alone. It was centuries ago by this point for him, but it was foundational and left deep emotional scars.
• Also, dying and coming back as an amnesiac, brainwashed puppet forced to fight his friends left some emotional scars too.
• Also, becoming a spirit weapon forced to be continually awakened and summoned to fight, sometimes against his own will, left even more emotional scars whoops whoops whoops.
