Knight of the troupe

Intruduction

(this is a fanfiction, not a reader or author insert.)
this is a Hollow Knight fanfiction about a half breed vessel named Cross

pretty much their half knight half Grimm, father of Grimm, mother of White Lady
(don't take that out of context) 

they are a youngling, and you will read as they grow in the kingdom of Hallownest. This takes place before and after the infection was sealed, 

 Their personal weapon is unknown, the lore about it will be explained throughout the chapters, and the same for Cross themselves. Cross's gender is not confirmed, so they might be genderless (kind of like frisk) the place Cross was born into was the Grimm Tent

Abilities are down below

Nightmare Step:
This ability is like Mothwing Cloak, instead of white speed lines shown when the ability is used.
Red particle like substances are on the feet of Cross, the aura is like the Scarlet Flame texture when fighting Grimm, when the ability stops, it will fade out, not like higher in opacity, its texture will crumble like sand

Broken Reality:
this ability makes Cross stop time, when the ability is in use, the area cross is in flashes white only once like a flashbang, when the flash is done. The area will appear white with black cobweb like atmosphere, the effect only lasts for 5 seconds, when upgraded it goes for 8 seconds. When the ability stops it will fade out.
(like the Vergil Judgement Cut effect when the white lines trigger)

Falling Forever:
The ability has the same mechanic as Desolate Dive, What :Falling Forever: does, when the ability is in use, Cross will fall mid air, halfway from hitting the ground Cross will put their spear up, the blade facing up. Cross will start to spin, When they hits the ground the impact makes cracks into the floor, as Cross keeps "drilling" into the enemy for about a second before leaping off their spear and grabbing it midair. When the ability stops, Cross will land with their arm having the spear behind them

Scarlet Cheer:
This ability was born from the Nightmare Heart, Cross visited the nightmare heart once, and it struck them with a scarlet red Missile, Giving cross the Mark of the Nightmare. The ability is the same concept as Abyss Shriek. Instead of the texture being Shades in a cluster, it would be the faces of the Grimm followers in a white and Warm red color, the sound when using the ability is the Followers clapping in the distance, like they are still watching over Cross. When the ability stops the cluster fades in a spiral like shape, while this is happening Cross is falling to the ground Little to no impact is made.

Sharpened Edge:
This ability has the same mechanics as Vengeful Spirit, instead of it being white with black eyes, It's a replica of Cross's spear, when the ability is in place, sparks come off the spear when being thrown from Cross. When the ability stop's, they land onto the ground with no impact depending on the height they throw from, The ability does about 20 damage when Cross upgrades their personal spear to the pure version.
(Reader's note: their will be a part in like the middle of the story about the upgraded versions of Cross's abilitys)

The mask I imagined them to have was similar to grimms, scarlet eyes and the vertical black cuts would be bright blue, like lifeblood and the body itself is a Vessel. Though throughout the story it develops feelings instead of being empty. 

(some fun facts)

Fun fact 1: When Cross sit's on a bench instead of pulling out a map he pulls out his diary.

Fun Fact 2: When Cross attack's an enemy their weapon's sharp edge builds up scarlet flame and when attacking with it, Cross will throw the spear at the enemy as the flame spreads to the enemies body, meanwhile the spear is stabbing them as the fire spreads, burning them to ashes. (similar to when first starting the Grimm troupe) 

Not-so-Fun fact 3: if Cross dies, nothing happens, no shade, no second chance. Just death, the only thing that will happen is Grimm bowing in the distance in his theater as the crowd in the back claps in respect of their long life

(This is it for now)
