Circalien Rhythm

**Debut** | TBA

**Circalien Rhythm** is the Simplicitrix/Stabilized Simplicitrix's DNA sample of a Securitatem-Vigilate Cupiat from the planet Utkrsta-Horae XXIV. He is a free-use alien originally created by Shark.

## Appearance

Circalien Rhythm changes appearance dependent if it is currently daytime or nighttime, although both of them appear very emaciated with flat, circular heads, asymmetrical eyes and nostrils of different sizes, jester-like ruffles extending off their neck and hips, three long fingers on each hand, pointed elf-like shoes, and numerous small red eyeballs extending off the ends of each of their ruffle frills, fingertips, and the ends of their shoes.

Circalien Rhythm's Sunlight form is colored various shades of faded grayish-yellow, with a six-pointed star covering his entire face, an eerily wide smile, tufts of hair wildly extending off the sides of his head, and white, cloud-like patterns on his thighs, while his Moonlight form is colored various shades of dark blue, with a silver crescent moon pattern covering the left side of his face, a crooked mouth full of broken teeth, and yellow, five-pointed stars on his thighs.

Circalien Rhythm wears the Simplicitrix symbol on his chest.

## Personality

Circalien Rhythm's Sunlight form is very hyperactive and friendly, although a stickler for enforcing rules, while his Moonlight form is malevolent in nature and will actively hunt down and harm those staying up past nighttime.

## Powers

* Upon the user transforming into Circalien Rhythm, their internal biological clock will automatically synchronize itself with the day and night cycle of whatever planet that he is on, including time zones, while the numerous eyes on his body assist in automatically detecting orbital positions and light levels. Upon completed synchronization, Circalien Rhythm will transform into one of two forms, with his Sunlight form if it is daytime, and his Moonlight form if it is nighttime, and transform into the other one within the next twelve hours.
	+ Circalien Rhythm's Sunlight form allows him to manipulate esoteric solar forces with divine and purifying preporties, such as emitting sunlight that can heal wounds through using pure life-force, summon angelic entities made of solar energy, teleport and transport himself through any available sunlight, and to a limited extent, manipulate both magnetism and plasma.
	+ Circalien Rhythm's Moonlight form allows him to manipulate esoteric lunar forces with demonic and corruptive preporties, such as emitting moonlight that can deform and distort individuals, summon demonic entities made of lunar energy, teleport and transport himself through any available moonlight, and to a limited extent, manipulate both ice and water.
* Circalien Rhythm can crawl up and scale vertical surfaces like walls.
* Circalien Rhythm can swap the souls of any two people that are in physical contact with him with enough focus, while the nature of the ability itself is what prompts his transformation between his two forms.
* Circalien Rhythm has enhanced durability, flexibility, and mobility.
* Circalien Rhythm's natural adaption to situations involving sensory deprivation means he cannot be blinded by any means, whenever in darkness or with a physical object.

## Weaknesses

* Circalien Rhythm is not necessarily strong on his own, relaying on the abilities of whatever form he is in.
* Circalien Rhythm's numerous eyeballs are weak spots that can cause him pain if struck.
* Circalien Rhythm is a magnet for the supernatural.
* Circalien Rhythm's transformation can be negated by the circadian rhythm manipulation of Cruxamicientes-Curriculos, which will confuse their biological clock and cause them drowsiness until they fall asleep.
* Circalien Rhythm is a disciplinarian that despises rebels that break rules, regardless of whichever form he is in, with his Sunlight form a lot stricter and his Moonlight form much more violent towards rulebreakers.
* Circalien Rhythm's Sunlight form fears the darkness, while his Moonlight form fears the light.
	+ Both forms have very mild ataxophobia, enough to drop whatever they are doing to tidy up a mess.

## Etymology

* Circalien Rhythm's name is a play on "circadian rhythm," referring to his biological clock synchronization, and "alien."
* Circalien Rhythm's species name is the Latin translation of "security alert woo woo," referencing a popular quote from the Daycare Attendant.
* Circalien Rhythm's planet name is the Latin translation of "hours 24," referring to his day and night cycle transformation.

## Trivia

* WTB suggested the general idea of Circalien Rhythm, including his powers and weaknesses, while Blake suggested his transformation, species, and planet names.
* As with his species and planet names, Circalien Rhythm is primarily inspired by the Daycare Attendant from *Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach*. His helioportation and lunaportation abilities were inspired by the cable on his back that enables his Moon form to jump in out of nowhere, while also sharing many of his characteristics, including his affinity for upholding rules, fear of the light or dark dependent on their form, and tendency to keep things tidy.
* Circalien Rhythm comes from the same system as Bear Hug, explaining the shared prefix of their planet names.
* Circalien Rhythm's working names were "Hybrid Eclipse" and just "Circalien," with the latter tweaked in order to avoid being too similar to the species name of Comatose.
