"He's mad decent. Praise Broopy."

Collin is... an enigma.

Consider the psychosomatic protection that his older cousin William (AkiraStryker) experiences. Now recognize the fact that Collin is, unlike William, more than capable of acknowledging his surroundings, but has elected instead to percieve reality as a construction of his own imagination.

Collin has taken "Vibe Theory" an enormous step further, and is using the full force of his intellect and charisma to not only dismiss the dangers of The Arcade, but also gaslight himself and those around him into participating in a separate narrative--one where his own capabilities rival that of a god.

If "vibe theory" is applied optimism, whatever Collin has done must be considered a sort of black magic "applied nihilism," one that has transformed him into a shadowy doppleganger of Broopy himself.
