- __ ONE: THIS ACCOUNT IS PRIVATE, meaning i will only write and interact with people i'm mutuals with. i prefer keeping my accounts pretty small, and i prioritize quality over quantity. because of this, i can be slow to reply, but feel free to DM me if i owe you.
- __ TWO : I DO NOT TOLERATE RACISM, HOMOPHOBIA, TRANSPHOBIA, OR ANTISEMITISM. anyone who exhibits these beliefs will be blocked. and in general, i'm pretty liberal with the block button. |
- __ THREE: IN CHARACTER OPINIONS ARE NOT OUT OF CHARACTER OPINIONS. while there are a lot of things i ignore about canon (which will be covered in my character notes page), i cannot emphasize enough that slade is a horrible person. he is not friendly, he is not nice, and he is intensely manipulative. his dislike of someone or something is not reflective of my own, because he has bad opinions and i have good ones.
- __ FOUR: NOBODY UNDER 18 ALLOWED HERE. and even 18 is pushing it for me. i donβt plan on writing any sex stuff here or anything like that, but i also am not here to be anybodyβs babysitter. |
- __ FIVE: IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ME, TELL ME DIRECTLY. i donβt do, βhe said/she saidβ shit. i am a chad extrovert without anxiety, so if i hear you have a problem with me, i will contact you about it so we can work it out. i am a grown ass man, iβm not gonna sit here playing telephone with adults like weβre in middle school.
- __ SIX: the psd used on this blog is by CREATIONCOLORS. icon border was made by me. any edits are made by me unless stated otherwise, and all visual references for my slade were drawn by me, so do not repost. |
- __ SEVEN: GENERAL ACCOUNT WARNINGS: violence, gore, discussion and depictions of hallucinations & delusions, manipulation, and mentions of multiple forms of abuse. EVERYTHING WILL BE TAGGED ACCORDINGLY.
- __ I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE AND UPDATE MY RULES AS I SEE FIT.
- __ IMPORTANT: DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, ASSUME ANYTHING ABOUT MY SLADE. i think i know more about american girl dolls than you do, genius. if you have questions about specific events and what i consider canon to this blog, just ask. |
- __ ONE: I DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE MOST OF CANON. slade is a character that has been mishandled in many different ways over the decades; writers either sloppily try to establish him as an irredeemable scumbag, or they try to make him out to be some roguish hero. and though wolfman showed slade more favor than he deserved, slade is neither.
- __ TWO: that being said, the main canon influence on how i write slade is the 1991 DEATHSTROKE SOLO. outside of that, my interpretation of slade is mostly based on headcanons and other outside media. |
- __ THREE: for the love of god, don't have your muse try to fight slade without prior ooc discussion. understand that comics are made for profits, not to tell good stories, so the average human vigilante mopping the floor with deathstroke is just because most writers don't wanna let a bad guy win. that, and a lot of writers don't seem to know how to balance his abilities to begin with. unless you're cool with your muse getting maimed at the very least, don't immediately try to launch into a fight without talking to me first.
- __ FOUR: slade is not a good person. he has a complicated code of honor, yes, but he's not good. i place him pretty securely in the "neutral evil" territory. he's out to make a profit above all else. |
- __ FIVE: slade is also mentally ill. there is in-narrative evidence that he experiences hallucinations, delusions, bouts of catatonia, as well as unspecified psychotic episodes. this is not something i will shy away from in my writing, and i'm not gonna disclose my entire diagnostic history on tumbler dot edu, but understand that i am writing what i know here.
- __ SIX: as stated in the warnings section of my rules, there will be mentions of abuse on this account. this is both in reference to slade's upbringing, as well as his relationships with his children. while i disagree with how this is portrayed in canon, the way slade treats his children is important to their characterizations, so it is something i acknowledge, though i won't go into full detail about.
- __ INSPO: hades (greek myth), the butcher in midnight meat train, the devil/lucifer in concept, koschei the deathless (russian folklore), crow cullom in "hide and seek" from the anthology slasher girls and monster boys, cain (biblical figure), enyalios (greek myth), sisyphys, agamemnon, king midas, macbeth, greed/avarice in concept, czernobog (slavic mythology), cherry by nico walker, judas in the last days of judas iscariot, agent 47 in hitman. |

- __ NOTE: please bear in mind that the portrayal of slade's abilities have been all over the place, and generally writers don't utilize them to their full potential. he's a metahuman. he has decades of experience honing those abilities. i will stress this again: DO NOT HAVE YOUR MUSE PICK A FIGHT WITH SLADE WITHOUT DISCUSSING IT WITH ME FIRST, UNLESS YOU'RE OKAY WITH THEM GETTING THEIR SHIT ROCKED. thank you.

STEALTH & ESCAPOLOGY
REGENERATIVE HEALING: slade is capable of healing from virtually any injury; he has come back even from death. he is also said to have very precise control over this, being able to slow down and speed up his healing process at will. wintergreen has noted that he is capable of healing himself so that there was "no sign he fought at all".
IMMORTALITY: the nature of his healing factor makes him practically immortal.
ENHANCED INTELLECT: slade is capable of thinking and processing external stimuli faster than the average human.
ENHANCED SENSES: working in tandem with his intellect, slade's senses are also enhanced beyond the average human. he is able to perceive and process some of the most minute details of his surroundings. this also has the effect of seeming as if he has a "sixth sense" of sorts.
SUPERHUMAN PHYSIOLOGY: everything about slade has been enhanced by a serum he was administered during his time in the army. These enhancements include his speed, stamina, strength, and agility.
DECELLERATED AGING: slade has not and will not physically age past his mid-30s. he is forever in his prime.
ARMOR: designed both for agility and to withstand quite a beating, slade's armor is specially built with a lightweight promethium mesh undersuit, ceramic plating, and a special blend of promethium & Nth metal fibers.
MASK: another mainstay of slade's armor is his mask. it's gone through many redesigns over the years, and his current one is two separate pieces: a kevlar hood, and the actual faceplate. the faceplate itself is a testament to slade's confidence in his abilities, as it advertises his missing eye.
PROMETHIUM BLADE: arguably one of the most iconic pieces of slade's everyday arsenal, his promethium blade is a five pound claymore-style sword that never dulls.
STAFF: collapsible, for easy concealment. often used either for maneuvering around obstacles, or as a last resort, if an enemy has managed to disarm him. designed to only respond to sensors in the palms of his gloves, the staff is equipped to fire short range, but very powerful blasts of energy.
