I'll try to post this week, or next week, or next week if I can't. Sorry about this!
Question: What would my character's faerie archetype be?
Oooh-

Will do!
Okay!
Oooh, sounds good! I'll probably do that.

Could be that the other personality doesn't really know the loved one who died, they just started tormenting the poor boy because they "noticed" his guilt(AKA, it started being affected by it; previously, they were just annoying and made the teen forget things) and "capitalized on the opportunity"(I'm putting certain things in air quotes because the schizophrenia can't really think at this point(not being real and all) and can only really repeat things the teen has seen and the teen's personal fears, lol-). Then, when the teen calls them out on it, they don't really have an answer. xD

Then they have an identity crisis because they're supposed to be the teen's personal tormentor for letting their loved one die, and they don't even know the loved one in the first place? And, they're losing control over the boy as well!? THIS WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!
@CaptainManbeard Or I could have it as a completely original "personality" that just seems to want to torment the teen at first, and then has an identity crisis as its personality starts to develop beyond its original "purpose".

Decisions, decisions. xD
Sounds pretty cool! :D

I'll probably do that, then.

Honestly, though, I'm pretty interested in how the dynamic between the teen and their schizophrenia would play out. I'm assuming that the teens are at least 18, yes? So, if the teen is male, then that means that the teen has had to deal with schizophrenia for three years.

How would their relationship play out, when the teen has resented their schizophrenia for years at this point and now has to deal with them somehow becoming sentient? There's also the point that the schizophrenia could cease becoming, well, schizophrenia at some point in the sentience process, and basically end up as a small child that the teen would have to become a guardian/friend/big brother to. How would the teen handle that, and slight tangent, but how would the schizophrenia deal with slowly losing control over the teen's mind?

Overall, I'm excited to answer all these questions, and also hear your thoughts, of course.
Hmm...

This idea is very experimental, but I was thinking, and here's what I have so far:

A teen with schizophrenia who gets shrunken down with the others, as you brought up already. However, due to some magic hoo ha which probably has to do with a whole lot of dead souls of faeries powering the machine, the teen's schizophrenia, over the RP, will become more and more sentient, eventually becoming my extra character and getting a body of their own(?). Another idea is that the teen unlocking their powers makes this slowly happen.

If you're worried about how I would handle this concept, I have schizophrenia myself, and will probably base the teen's schizophrenia and their experience with it on my own. If you still refuse it, however, I'm perfectly fine with that! This is just an idea in my head that won't go away, that's all. :')

Oh, and also, I can give you some information about schizophrenia if you're unfamiliar with/know little about the mental illness! :D
Alright, sounds cool! I dig that!
