Emotion is worthless when you're the Antichrist, darling. Or at least it's better half.
Low-grade psychopath who only had emotion from Thursday to Monday (until their powers awoke fully - they're living off muted pangs of feeling now) and would kill someone as likely as they would save them. Nothing matters and they're living in the name of hedonism. Its whatever, man!

despite being the offspring of the first royal demon, myst's mixed blood means they're closer in appearance to their father's siblings than their actual father. they do not (as far as they are aware) have a god form. they are not sure about their "full" demon form however, as they haven't been able to access it for some reason.
regardless, they did inherit his shapeshifting abilities and after years of practice, have great control over it. (of course, it helped that they had anatomy knowledge and gender dysphoria...) they also managed to inherit his necromancy - which works great for them. on their mother's side they mainly got the power to heal wounds (though not on any major scale, it's too fucking tiring) and the ability to... grow plants. yeah. they don't even have thorns. just nasty little vines. myst finds that ability too limited to seriously study, though they are forced to do so. ugh.
speaking of their mother, the species coming from her is also constructed. (wow!) dyausheng, like royal demons, are simply a term for children of a particular goddess; in this instance, Jasmine - goddess of life. so... fun. myst feels no particular connection to either species, it's of little importance to them.
since mysti is soulbound to grimm (essentially he's their guardian in a sense), they can feel his emotions and to a degree any physical effects (though he can apparently turn it off. mysti hasn't figured out how to do the same). the downside is that they cannot be more than a few miles apart without severe pain stemming from both of their torsos (from the soul connection). ouch.
born on earth (in the united states, no less. god knows why their mother chose there) merely days after their older sister, mysti had a fairly normal childhood. normal to a demon and prince, anyway. they went to school - learned all the things they weren't supposed to talk about (some obvious, like having a soulbound, and some not - like the fact their father was polyamorous and bisexual. like who cares?) and made friends. including their demon friend mandee, who they met in middle school and were soon inseperable from.
this changed when they were thirteen and caught a mysterious illness along with all their siblings. apparently, the underworld wanted them home once their powers came in, and it was going to claw them back regardless of how their mother felt about it. they lived in the underworld after this illness "killed" them, now with their father. it was an odd adjustment - they'd never stayed with him (or vice versa) for more than a few weeks at most. but they soon grew used to it.
well, mostly. they'd started having slip-ups and urges to... murder their father. and morningstar. and kinda grimm too. and everything had started numbing out. after some somewhat traumatizing medical experimentation (only made not extremely traumatatic because their uncle was the head of it and wouldn't let anyone poke around too much), they were given a weekly injection to suppress the part of their magic that was turning them a bit insane (to put it mildly).
this worked fine, up until they turned 21 and their powers fully kicked in. then it just stopped working. and still won't. they're the antichrist, for fucks sake, and their body refuses to forget it anymore. not that they mind. its nice, having the volume turned down on that shit. it was getting rather annoying anyway. besides, they're allowed to kill people now. so who cares?
I like them, they're cool - and a good spar partner - but damn. They're absolutely ruthless with their words sometimes. it is kinda hot though....
They let me infodump about shit, so that's cool. However, they said they were going to give me back my jacket like four months ago. I still haven't seen it. This bitch seriously up and stole my jacket. What the fuck.
I don't see my sibling that much, but I like making horrible jokes to them. They hate it so much; it's so funny. Especially when our dad joins in. They get so offended, its great.
