ColdDarkPlace or CountOrlok is an amateur wiki editor and a massive Made in Abyss fan.

Personality
I am dumb and make mistakes all the time, sometimes I may not notice which is why I need other people to hold me accountable for my stupidity. If you've suffered an inconvinience because of me, do let me know.

I may be obsessed with Made in Abyss but unfortunately I can easily leave something undone.

Favorite Pages
So far, these are my favorite pages, simply because of the content relating to the story or because I'm interested in maintaining these in particular.
 * Timeline of World History
 * 7th Layer
 * Riko's Journey
 * Human-looking silhouette
 * Hariyomari's Song
 * Bestiary
 * Artifacts

Cute Characters

 * Maruruk is very cute.
 * Reg is cute and the only true human in the whole series other than...
 * Prushka, the purest of heart.
 * Nishagora: though a savage, has a cute side and has quickly grown on me.

Japanese
I feel I can say I understand a moderate amount of japanese so if you have inquiries about particular sentences, I may be of help if I'm active, given context.

Nether Glyphs
I finally got around to mastering the nether script so that I have another tool to put to good use when a chapter updates.

Beliefs
Everything in this section contains theories I'm invested in at the moment, this is an attempt at shaping what people believe about the abyss and its nature.

Iruburu is a small-scale Abyss
Everything shown in the Iruburu Arc is in some way related to how the abyss was created and how it works:
 * This theory sprung from the line about children's fear being closer to that of the origin when referring to the probability of success of giving Irumyuui the Cradle of Desire.
 * A child was sacrificed in order to save a group of people and she transformed into something that could achieve this, presumably the true residents of the Golden City like Reg or clawbot. The Abyss even feels alive by many of the characters in the series, though this does not prove anything it is worth mentioning.
 * The process by which Ganja and other delvers were transformed into Narehate is similar to how one would become a blessed Narehate, the difference being that the sacrifice comes from somebody else and the body of the receiver. Examples being Nanachi and Mitty, presumably Bondrewd attained a body suited for combat too.
 * The system of Value has a sort of relation to how the Your Worth chooses its recipient, for example Prushka desired to go adventuring with Riko and her team even as she was practically dead; this manifested in Prushka becoming Riko's White Whistle, allowing her to technically travel down with her even though she sacrificed herself for Bondrewd's Blessing.

Relics are made up of human souls
The distinction between humans, creatures and artifacts are ever closing in as the series progressess:
 * The material needed to create a White Whistle is a human.
 * The Interference Units who accompanied Ganja in their struggles refer to the relics as "appearing where they were not before" and mentioned that "round relics are the shape wishes" and as we've seen, wishes are closely correlated to the transformation of humans by the Abyss.
 * In chapter 61, we see a glimpse of a note from Lyza with mirrored letters that was bought by Moogie and Majikaja and given to Riko, the note states that the Kamazuno and another creature, named 'Uranaguapu' by Lyza, have organs in them near their heart that resembles a Your Worth. This implies that they themselves are relics.
 * Even though Reg is alive, he can be activated by the blow of Riko's White Whistle. Not only this, in chapter 63 it is revealed that Juusou are also able to be activated by the blow of a White Whistle!

Juusou-ification
This theory could be proven or disproven in this very arc but let's see how wrong I'll be!
 * Juusou may appear when multiple souls enter a single body as they are about to be born, about to be deemed human by the Abyss. I believe this because Nishagora made a lot of emphasis on souls that time Riko's team and she met eachother; Nishagora is said to be one with many souls by Faputa. Another contribution to this claim is that Juusou may have been intentionally left to interpretation until recently because it can be assigned the kanji 重層 giving it the meaning of being multilayered, Tsukushi has done this before where Shourou means belltower in japanese even though in-story it means Capital of the Unreturned.
 * The way in which Srajo creates her own Juusou requires killing or taking advantage of the death of the subject to plant souls in the body, altering the body into a shape befit of a creature of the abyss. This being done with her unique coffin relic. This claimed is backed up by the fact that Menae and Sherumi died by the Birthday Death Disease and Juusou would clearly not be permitted to become Black Whistles.

More wacky theories to come...

Trivia

 * The name ColdDarkPlace comes from the name of the EP released by Mastodon. Very cool band.
 * The name CountOrlok comes from the name of the discount[no pun intended] dracula, Count Orlok, who is a Nosferatu just like me!
