–Master of the Abyss
The Master of the Abyss, often shortened to the Master, is a hybrid of Temte Mapleleaf and Mayo created by GuyThatExists that appears in Heather Dating Sim as the main antagonist and in Blank Slates 3 as a minor protagonist.
When Mayo possessed Temte Mapleleaf when she was given Willham's powers, Mayo convinced her to delete the void and eventually took over her body, becoming the Master. As the Master, she began to create Abyssal Rifts throughout the multiverse, displacing many people, including you. She would continue to create rifts, allowing you to travel throughout the multiverse. She started opening rifts quicker, culminating in a battle between you and her, which is won by Temte taking control of the body, effectively killing the Master and trapping Mayo inside of Temte for good. She would later return to help fight against Tombstone.
Appearance[edit]
While not fighting, the Master appears as a massive blocky face with three protrusions from her head, two of which are pierced with Mayo's earrings. The gas of a screener also surrounds her face.
While fighting, the Master grows to a massive size, and her protrusions are expelled from her body and tethered by tendrils. She also gains more of Temte's features, such as her body, mallet, and eyes.
Story[edit]
Before Heather Dating Sim[edit]
After Temte Mapleleaf goes on her own journey to try and find Alme Palmette, her brother, Mayo, who was resting inside her, convinces her to give up control of her body, forming the Master of the Abyss. The Master began to make Abyssal Rifts, dragging multiple people from other universes into the Drawn to Life universes, including you, sending you into Belleview. However, Mayo does not appear to you until after you leave Belleview and survive Rapoville.

Canon Path[edit]
The Master continues to create more and more Abyssal Rifts while you go on your journey. As you leave Rapoville through a rift, the Master confronts you, telling you not show up in The Abyss again, as you do not belong. However, when you arrive in The Void, a rift opens, the Master recognizes Willham, and Willham recognizes the Master as Mayo. The two of them engage in a fight that ends with you jumping onto and attacking the Master alongside Willham. The Master also notices the Four Guardians and the Mayors of each void village coming to fight, so she calls off her attack, dragging you into the abyss with her.
The Master once again berates you for interfering with her plans, and she tosses you around the abyss until throwing you through yet another rift, landing you in Plushview. As the Master opened more and more cracks, Temte Mapleleaf managed to grab Alme Palmette from the void, crashing him into both you and Pleather. The Master notices the three of you careening through the abyss, but is unable to do anything to you, as you crash into Roboville.
Now the Master knows that her plan may be in jeopardy, so she begins to make more and more cracks as fast as possible throughout the abyss. This eventually leads to Willham making contact with her once again. These new rifts also allow you and Alme to make contact with her, and the three of you begin to fight the Master. The Master berates the three of you for thinking you could stop her, so she kidnaps the five Heathers you've encountered so far, forcing them to play a game for your life.
However, because of your compassion, Temte refuses to let Mayo destroy the universes, and her control of the body increases more and more with every Heather you've been kind to, and every minute detail you remember about them. In a fit of rage, the Master gives you an unanswerable question, but due to interference from Q-Heather, you are able to answer it correctly. This sends the Mayo into a blind rage, and she begins to attack you. However, the combined efforts of Willham and Alme incapacitate her, allowing Temte to wrestle for control of the body. Mayo and Temte eventually reach a stalemate in their battle, but when Alme gives Temte words of encouragement, Temte is able to completely regain control of the body, trapping Mayo inside her for good and effectively killing the Master.
Non-Canon Paths[edit]
- Should you die at any point, Mayo's plan to eradicate the universes is successful.
- This is subverted in Life In The Void and Nomad.
- If you continue to run away from Mayo and Willham's fight in the void, the two of them reach a stalemate and everything in the void is deleted.
- If Q-Heather is not created, Willham will kill the Master before you can enter the abyss. However, Mayo's plan will still be enacted, as most of the cracks were already made.
- If Willham kills the Master after you and Alme join him in the abyss, her plan is stopped.
- If you are rated poorly by a Heather, or if you answer one of the Master's questions wrong, Temte will relinquish control, and Mayo's plan will be enacted.
- If you hold back Alme from helping during the stalemate, Willham will accidentally delete him, allowing Mayo to take control once again and enact her plan.
Blank Slates 3[edit]
The Master continues to be contained inside of Temte as she helped around the universes, though she is eventually brought back to The Void to help fight Tombstone. Eventually, during the final fight against Tombstone, Temte realizes that she would have to unleash the Master if she wanted any chance to defeat Tombstone.
Unleashing the Master once more, she began fighting Tombstone alongside the Tree King, though the two of them were soon trapped by buildings thrown by Tombstone. While trying to help the Tree King, Tombstone takes an opportunity to absorb him, but not before he can give the Master his crown. Now empowered by God Rays, the Master is easily able to overpower Tombstone, though the power of her attack knocks Mayo out, returning control of the body to Temte.
