Carcosan /kar-koh-sun/ Noun A hollowed-out hedonist who has traded their agency, dignity, and "soul" for the pursuit of fleeting physical ecstasy. A Carcosan is characterized by a "void-like" existence where no long-term goal, moral obligation, or personal relationship matters more than the next hit of dopamine or the next warm body. Adjective Describing an action or mindset that is nihilistically self-indulgent; prioritizing a moment of skin-to-skin contact over one’s entire future. The Core Philosophies The Hollow Mask: They look like a functioning human, but there is "nobody home" except for the hunger. The Infinite Trade: No price is too high for a "good time." They would sell a kidney, a secret, or a kingdom for a night of peak sensation. Beautiful Decay: They often surround themselves with luxury or aesthetics, but it’s a thin veil over a rotting interior.
