Antlers

## Appearance

Antlers is a thin, short girl with slightly pale skin and sharp, claw-like brown fingers. Her distinctive feature is her deer-skull head, complete with antlers, despite being female. As it turns out, her "head" is detachable, revealing a human face underneath. Her eyes are bright orange when she wears the mask and brown when she doesn't. She ties her brown hair into a messy ponytail that falls just past her shoulders. It seems that Antlers' "antlers" are not tangible, as they appear to be an illusion.

She is dressed in a white collared long-sleeved shirt, with the sleeves rolled up stylishly to a medium length, and a dark blue V-neck vest. She pairs this with black sweatpants and black shoes, along with white ankle-length socks. However, she is often seen without shoes. In her memories, she recalls wearing a black camo tank top with black shorts, and an unzipped black thumb jacket.

## Story

Antlers and Nikita were the best of friends and spent most of their time together. They even helped each other with homework. However, when Nikita had to move away from school, they were forced to part ways. Years went by until the news was revealed that Megan was killed in a case of arson.

As Nikita's imagination flourished, Megan was strangely brought back to life in an unusual form with extraordinary abilities and given the new name Antlers. Although initially thought to be a figment of Nikita's imagination, like an imaginary friend, this was later disproved as Antlers was able to interact with others. She referred to her form as a vessel and claimed that only her undead soul remained human. Antlers was found to be invincible and indestructible through various means, proving her immortality.

Antlers has the ability to enter Nikita's physical body through any orifice or crevice, and explore it without doing harm to Nikita. This supports her ability to be able to sleep in the mind of Nikita, as she states that is her home. Antlers does have a drawback, though. Antlers won't be awake if Nikita isn't medicated.

### Crusading the Human Viscera

As Antlers is spiritually connected to Nikita, one of her responsibilities is to function as a "housekeeper" for Nikita's body. This involves traversing Nikita's anatomy to ensure homeostasis, defend against diseases and bacteria, and more. Although this task may seem unpleasant and graphic at first, Antlers has become accustomed to it. It's like two individuals sharing one home. Antlers cannot do any harm to Nikita or herself when doing these tasks, as she is an indestructible being. This has been slightly traumatic for Antlers, as she now has learned about the human body, very up and close.

## Abilities

### Size Manipulation

Antlers has the ability to change her size as she wishes, ranging from as small as one inch to as large as 18 feet. This comes in handy for her to live inside Nikita's body. However, she rarely uses her enormous size as there is no logical reason to become gigantic to help her friend in taking care of herself.

### Immortality and Invincibility

Antlers cannot be killed or harmed. With her physical form being a vessel, it is indestructible and cannot perish, as long as there's a soul piloting it, she claims.

#### Pressure Immunity

Antlers possesses the ability to withstand being crushed, smashed, or flattened without sustaining any damage. Furthermore, she can survive in extreme environments with high or low pressures, including high altitudes, deep oceans, outer space, or areas with flattening gravitational forces. This power is highly beneficial for her to be able to navigate within Nikita's body, as the space inside is claustrophobic and constricted, leaving very little room to maneuver. Instead of crushing her, it just slows her down.

### Enhanced Human Senses

Antlers has the remarkable ability to possess incredibly accurate senses. Specifically, she has two enhanced senses - smell and touch. While these senses prove quite useful for locating objects, finding people, and detecting potential disasters, they can also be quite challenging to work with. Additionally, her hearing is also more developed than usual.
