'''Type:''' Chimera
The '''Seductive Apathy vissi''' is a '''chimera''' vissi that is part of the [[vissi system]]. It must be placed inside an [[arcarium]] to function. As a singular vissi, it has the same effect no matter what type of arcarium houses it.


'''Summary:''' Why say it? Why care? This vissi wraps its owner in a fog of apathy: where words go unspoken, gazes go vacant, and the weight of the world simply... stops mattering.

The Apathy vissi is named {{blue|Seductive Apathy}} and it is a {{blue|Chimera}} vissi.
You [1] open your mouth [/1] to [2] say something [/2], but the words never escape your lips as [3] a mental fog overcomes you momentarily. [/3].


This vissi notes the following ability information:

[2] say something (default) | make an announcement | cast a vitriolic statement | pose a question | bark a command<br>

|-
! scope="row" | Tier 3
| Ambient Unlocked:


The vissi may have abilities you can activate by using certain verbs (RUB, TAP, PUSH, PULL, or POKE) on the vissi artifact you add them to. In order to set the activator, use ATTEND on the vissi. The vissi might not have an ability you may activate, in which case ATTEND will indicate that.
An overwhelming sense of weariness suddenly overtakes you, sapping your current ambitions at a rapidly escalating rate. Pushing yourself feels futile. Speaking is too much exertion. Even forming basic thoughts is simply exhausting.


Sometimes, a vissi may have multiple abilities you can activate with the activator verbs. You can TILT the vissi to switch between them. Tilt will not respond if the vissi has only a single ability (or no abilities at all). You may only have one ability active at a time.
The pall of apathy becomes so overwhelming that [4] you're not sure if even drawing breath is worth the effort [/4], and it's at that point that you realize these hopeless sensations are being thrust upon you by your orb. Snapping back to your senses, you growl, "" [5] Leave me be! [/5]"

In addition, the vissi may have abilities with customizable messaging options. You can TURN the vissi to customize each set of options. Once on a set of options, you can TWIST the vissi to cycle through the available customizations.

Finally, some vissi may contain ambient messaging, which you can toggle on or off with COVER.

It is currently tier 1 out of 6. It is empowered by 1 thread.

The Seductive Apathy vissi is a chimera vissi that is part of the vissi system. It must be placed inside an arcarium to function. As a singular vissi, it has the same effect no matter what type of arcarium houses it.

Why say it? Why care? This vissi wraps its owner in a fog of apathy: where words go unspoken, gazes go vacant, and the weight of the world simply... stops mattering.

This vissi is a possible prize for the Fugue Elanthians mini-game. They are also sold for aevit. See the full upgrade costs below.

Tier 1

The vissi has "Speech Hesitation" verb messaging for its activator verb, which can be set or changed via ATTEND.

Analyze

You analyze the Apathy vissi and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

The Apathy vissi can be added to a vissi artifact in order to augment the artifact with custom abilities.  Each vissi artifact may hold up to 5 different types of vissi, and each vissi may be upgradable by adding additional vissi of the same type to the artifact.

The Apathy vissi is named Seductive Apathy and it is a Chimera vissi.

This vissi notes the following ability information:

Listlessly wander through life with your equally apathetic companion vissi.

The vissi may have abilities you can activate by using certain verbs (RUB, TAP, PUSH, PULL, or POKE) on the vissi artifact you add them to.  In order to set the activator, use ATTEND on the vissi.  The vissi might not have an ability you may activate, in which case ATTEND will indicate that.

Sometimes, a vissi may have multiple abilities you can activate with the activator verbs.  You can TILT the vissi to switch between them.  Tilt will not respond if the vissi has only a single ability (or no abilities at all).  You may only have one ability active at a time.

In addition, the vissi may have abilities with customizable messaging options.  You can TURN the vissi to customize each set of options.  Once on a set of options, you can TWIST the vissi to cycle through the available customizations.

Finally, some vissi may contain ambient messaging, which you can toggle on or off with COVER.

It is currently tier 1 out of 6.  It is empowered by 1 thread.
