Beta

Beta is a horrorbrew created by @plumbadumba. He is a species known as a Soul, a particular species that is required to form a human body in order to live eternally. He had managed to form a body resembling Luigi based on his image, and in return, gaining a spiritual flower that he holds at all times. Now, he wishes to live a normal human life with this vessel. A hefty task, indeed, with the obstacles he comes across with The Bound Siblings. Despite his similar appearance, he is not Luigi himself.
There is a separate, noncanon AU called the 'Luigi Family', where Beta plays a motherly role in caring for the other Luigis.
==Origin==
With only little amounts of time remaining, Beta grew hopeless in succeeding to find a body. Almost every other one of his species had already met their fates of being vanished from existence. He did not think he would be able to form his own vessel in time. However, that soon changed when the Mansion had gained a new visitor.
A desperate plumber, Luigi, had entered the Mansion through its large doors. But for what reason? Beta curiously watched the Human from afar, who began to call for his brother. The Soul did not have full understanding of family and relationships at the moment, but he figured this 'Mario' was someone that this Human cared for deeply. Eventually, Luigi entered the Gallery, a long-abandoned area in the Mansion, with Beta quietly following. What the plumber found would be the worst, and last, thing he expected.
His brother, Mario, lying on the ground outside a painting, long rotten and deceased. The green one wept and yelled mournfully for his older sibling which felt like hours. Despite Beta being unable to grasp the concept of death in his mind, he still felt horrible for the crying brother. Before reaching in attempts to comfort him, Luigi had grabbed some rope from one of the shelves. The Soul, unsure of what he would do, curiously watched. That was until the green one shakily tied the rope from the ceiling, grabbing a stool and standing on it.
...
After Luigi's weakening attempts to gasp for air and reach for his strangled neck, he went limp, and the rope had loosely snapped off the roof. The plumber fell to the ground, joining his deceased brother.
Beta had no words. He floated towards the two bodies, pondering. This was his only chance of forming a body, but guilt filled his mind as well. Would he really take this offer for eternal life after an event like this?
With hesitation in his pale eyes, he reached his hand to the arm of Luigi's..
..And from there, everything was different when he had awoken.
== Abilities/Weaknesses==
===Abilities===
*Beta has the ability to gain a set of green pupils on command, but they may also be triggered from any heavy emotion he experiences.
*Also on command or from emotion, Beta's body is able to glow, typically a soft blue. The glow is said to be able to put ones mind at comfort.
* Although not very useful, Beta can float off of the ground slightly.
=== Weaknesses ===
*Beta needs to hold his flower at all times, as without it, his body would eventually undergo a state of great pain until ripping out his true Soul form from it. This process is temporary, however, as the body will soon recover from its wounds and allow Beta to inhabit it again.
*While Beta is in his Soul form, he is incredibly vulnerable and brittle.
*Beta is mentally tormented by The Bound Siblings, the enraged spirits of Mario and Luigi. They tend to leave his mind in a very tired and deprived state.
== Trivia== 
*Beta is a transgender male.
*If you were to look at Beta's neck, you would see a deep, purple bruise surrounding it. This can be considered a 'birthmark' from the formation of his body after Luigi's death. He gets quite uncomfortable when he is reminded of it.
*He takes great pleasure in cooking, gardening, and knitting.
*If he were to have a canon voice, it would be soft with a slight echo. However, he does not have an accent like Luigi does.
*Beta is not very tech-savvy.
* He is slightly shorter and a bit chubbier than a regular Luigi.
*Ever since his very beginning, Beta has always loved the rain. He occasionally goes outside and stands in it as a way to recollect and calm himself.
*Beta's body is usually very cold, which is why he almost always wears a sweater.
*There used to be a brother of Beta known as Lost. He was similar in appearance and story, except as a Mario counterpart. He was later removed from Beta's lore because he was an unnecessary addition. The name 'Lost', however, has been rebranded to one of The Bound Siblings.
*Beta and IHY Luigi's couple name is "Heartburn".
*Beta's skin is incredibly soft to the touch.
*His green sweater is one that he had made himself.
*The flower that he carries is an artifact that is physically connected to him. Without it, he cannot survive in his Luigi body for long.
*Beta's favorite genre of music is classical and jazz; he can also play the piano.
*He enjoys dancing, both by himself and with others.
*If Beta were to have a favorite Mario game, it would be SMB2.
*Beta thinks even the most evilest of horrorbrews can be given redemption, and so treats them kindly and with care like he does with everyone else.
*The color of Beta's blood is yellow.
