Music for the First Half of the Article



You know how Victorian-era Europeans are the direct inspiration of a dominant view of children, inspired by the New Testament and stretching to the present day. In this view, there is a sharp transition between innocent child and little adult. The conventional age Western culture assigns to this tradition has grown over the years. The meme, however, remains: a young child is a Blank Slate not yet sullied by the evils of the world. Only upon coming of age does the child lose this innocence.

If this is what you came to expect I'm sorry to say that you are at the wrong Article.

French for "Terrible Child"

Pity they're dangerous, vicious and in some cases a meglomaniac at heart. L'enfant Terrible knows people think they're cute, and will use that to their advantage. When one person finds out, said hero usually has a hard time convincing others, who will turn on them for even suggesting such a thing about the poor, poor child.

An Enfant Terrible may be supernatural, or simply a child born without a conscience. They may also be an Orphan.
