Avon being a satanist felt a bit weird to me. Mostly because he didn't really act like one. More like the sterotype of satanist.

The 7 Fundamental Tenets are:

  • "One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason."
  • "The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions."
  • "One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone."
  • "The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own."
  • "Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs."
  • "People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused."
  • "Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word."

Avon doesn't really fit any of these tenets at all. Safe to say I could be completely wrong or misread his character tho. This isn't hate just something I wanted to point out !! (game is peak)

Totally understand your point on the satanist part! I didn’t want to focus too much on it in this release since it’s a smaller part of his character.

To calrify, Avon isn’t a modern-day Satanist. His connection to it comes wayy more from his father’s past involvement in a satanic cult and being raised under similar ideologies.

But its because of that influence, his understanding leans toward the older, more ritualistic and darker side of satanism, rather than the philosophical or symbolic version most people think of today, so that's why it may come off as stereotypical! (We did worry about that haha)

But he 100% does not behave the way he does because he's a Satanist. He behaves the way he does because of his father, circumstance, and other factors I don't want to spoil quite yet haha (terribly sorry). Hopefully I can build more on that in the future! Tysm for your comment <3

Oh that make's a lot of sense!! I was under the impression that his beliefs were the same as the modern day ones. Though these ones seem much for fitting for his character!

OHHH that makes SO much more sense! I was wondering about that too. The older ritualistic satanism angle is way more interesting tbh and fits his character perfectly. Can't wait to learn more about his father's influence 👀
