a genuine question.jpeg

this question is mainly for those with aspd, fans of the wkeap amplify quest, or those who have at least read poe’s “the cask of amontillado” —

does anyone else see montresor having aspd, or is it at least a good headcanon to give him? i’ve done a good amount of research and a lot of things correlate to both how he acts in his original story and in the amplify quest. some stuff includes a lack of empathy, masking (for empathy/social scenarios), arrogance, feeling detached/the “odd one out”, deceitfulness, acting manipulative, excessive alcohol usage (he’s called a “perennial drunk” by poe in the quest), and failing to conform to laws/norms (because you know, he killed fortunato and all that jazz)

if you don’t know who i’m referring to, just look at this page and maybe check for updates—once his quest cards are added it should be a lot easier to get where i’m coming with this
