So4 [Social 4]|Enneagram!

The So4 has an elongated, very thin body (not very thin ᯣ_ᯣ) with long, thin limbs and uneven, melting outlines. The main palette consists of deep black, dark gray and cool blue-violet shades with soft watercolor transitions. The head is small, the face has a tired and sad expression. The eyes are half-closed, with dark lids and a dull look. The hair is short, slightly wavy and disheveled, divided into uneven strands. Many curls end in drops, as if the hair is made of thick liquid. On the sides of the head are small curved black horns, next to which round drops hang. The neck, shoulders and edges of the body are covered with a flowing dark mass, creating the effect of molten resin or a thick shadow. There is a large black star-shaped hole with ragged edges on the chest, resembling a bottomless void. Thin white decorative lines, swirls, dots and small ornaments, similar to luminous cracks or magical patterns, run all over the body. There is a dark bandage on one leg, and the lower part of the legs gradually darkens to almost completely black. There are also small drops and bubbles around the body, reinforcing the impression that the character consists of a viscous dark substance and is constantly spreading.
