Dismas Mersiv, also known by his Skorpe handle, gigantisDebilitation, is one of the trolls in Vast Error. His associated alchemic symbol is Phosphorus and his horns are sharp and turn upwards into what would be a triangle, which is related to his symbol as well as the "edgy" archetype he represents.

He has a pseudo-healing factor as his survival tactic, which allows him to quickly heal wounds albeit leaving them horribly scarred and disfigured. His most notable scars were given to him by his lusus and are presented on his face, which he covers up with a bandanna due to being extremely self-conscious about them. It has been noted that these scars may be a reference to "phossy jaw", which is an occupational disease to those who work with phosphorus without proper safety equipment.

He was the fourth troll introduced.

Biography

Six-Sweeps

Not much is known about Dismas' past, aside from his history with Murrit. It is known that Murrit somehow came to own Dismas' soul after Dismas lost it in a poker match.

Six sweeps Dismas delivering to six sweeps Murrit.

Dismas was then appointed to being Murrit's hitman, supposedly to take back artifacts he sold from the Frog Temple. Which he needs to fulfill his deal with White Noise.

During the game

Dismas has yet to enter the game.

Personality and Traits

Not if he has anything to say about it.

Dismas is largely a victim of poor circumstance. Having been raised by a highly volatile and aggressive immature Skulltitan lusus and having been forced to endure horrible physical tolls to satiate it, Dismas is primarily driven by a goal to escape his abusive home by means of eliminating his lusus and its entire destructive species. He's dedicated his life towards such a goal and spends great time studying ancient footage of Skulltitans and the methods of their defeat.

However, Dismas is noted to be the kind of troll who regularly over-estimates his abilities, to the point where he often does more harm than good for himself. This is demonstrated in his insufficient methods in eliminating his lusus (simply trying to choke it out), him losing his soul to Murrit through gambling, and even him damaging his computer system after trying to create a Skorpe theme. Dismas tries to present a facade of being a capable, tough troll who has a plan, but truthfully lacks in those departments, something he's painfully aware of.

Relationships

Murrit Turkin

Murrit and Dismas have been in a kismessitude for at least around two sweeps, and share the standard, mutually antagonistic relationship with one another. Murrit somehow gained and still owns Dismas's soul after an online poker game and the two worked as partners in an unknown capacity in the past. Though it is inferred that the work wasn't negotiable and had quite a lot of murder involved.

Murrit appears to have a tough-love stance towards Dismas, regularly helping Dismas in a round-about, incomprehensible manner through the use of his Boobdrone and in person. Dismas generally acts like he's completely tired of Murrit's bullshit, but goes along with it anyway and does seem to be able to talk to him without resorting to usual rivalistic behavior. Murrit has been shown to be physically aggressive with Dismas at least through the use of Boobdrone, but this may be a form of hate-flirting or a one time action on his part.

furbishFacilitated

Dismas and furbishFacilitated are in a moirallegiance.

Albion Shukra

Although the two have yet to interact directly, Albion and Dismas appear to be familiar and friendly with one another. Dismas was notably concerned when Albion was acting strangely (truthfully, she was being possessed by her ancestor, who had wished to warn Dismas of White Noise).

Ellsee Raines

Dismas is one of the few trolls who is actually aware of Ellsee's existence, likely through Murrit.

Trivia

• Dismas' aspect is most likely a Mage.
  • It is stated that a Mage can be described as someone who "benefits themselves with knowledge pertaining to [aspect]". This may refer to the fact that Dismas spends most of his time studying Skulltitans and ways of reaching their downfall. Therefore benefiting himself with knowledge of how the Skulltitans think.
  • A Mage can also be described as "one who receives knowledge from [aspect]". This may refer to how Dismas is aware of Ellsee's existence by most likely being told my Murrit.

• Dismas' name is also the name of the Christian saint: Saint Dismas. In the Christian religion, Saint Dismas was one of the two criminals who had died on crosses next to Jesus during the Crucifixion. He, according to the Christian religion, had asked Jesus to "remember him" when he had "come into" his kingdom when he died. Saint Dismas is referred to as the Good Thief.
  • This may show a possibility that Dismas may be a Thief.
• The name Dismas derives from the Greek word meaning "sunset" or "death"
• His skorpe handle, 'gigantisDebilitation', 'gigantis' meaning Godzilla, and 'debilitation' meaning weakness, Dismas' chumhandle in general means "Godzilla's weakness", being a possible foreshadowing to how Dismas may be the probable cause of his lusus' end.
• The word 'gigantis' is from the Japanese science fiction movie "Gigantis: The Fire Monster" and is also known as "Godzilla Raids Again" this refers to his lusus due to being of a similar species to the science fiction antagonist Godzilla. his lusus can be seen breathing a kind of blue fire towards Dismas in a fight scene on Murrit's Boobdrone monitor as well as during '[S] Arcjec: Enter'.
• The word 'debilitation' means "something that seriously affects one's ability to carry on with regular activities". 'Debilitation' also comes from the greek word 'debilis' meaning "weak".
