PROFILE SKELETON I TOOK FROM CLAIRE
PROFILE SKELETON I TOOK FROM CLAIRE
MAIN PARTY
Ivy Wakefield
Appearance/Image References/PB/WHATEVER:
eyyyy
Bio:
Ivy was a kid growing up in the shadow of the Demon Lord! Unfortunately, he needed the hearts of the young in order to sustain his immortality, so Ivy's father killed her and offered up her heart to the demon lord as a sacrifice. Ivy died at age 13, but persisted as a ghost, bound to a childhood doll... which was then thrown away, eventually ending up deep in an underground cavern. Without the ability to get her vessel out of the hole it was in, Ivy was trapped alone in the dark, while dead, for 200 years. Her liberation came when the party came dungeon crawling, and found her by coincidence. She now hangs out with them as the team spooky mascot - thrilled to have people to talk to, excited to see what's been going on in the world for the last couple centuries, and terrified of ever being alone for any reason.
Powers and shit:
She a ghost! Invisible, insubstantial, and eternal, she can use her gradually accumulating spectral energy (hereafter "ghost juice") to perform various ghostly tricks. From least to most ghost juice required:
- Becoming audible to the living
- Becoming visible
- Animating her doll vessel
- Becoming tangible
- Possession of the living
- Turning a bounded area into a haunted space, filling it with spatial fuckery and illusions
ANYTHING ELSE:
Ivy isn't allowed to say fuck but what's gonna stop her now, is her dad gonna kill her again
Walker
Appearance/Image References/PB/WHATEVER:
Bio: Was a scholarship student at mage college, talented enough to win a coveted apprenticeship with a well-respected wizard. This pissed off asshole trust fund baby and fellow student Kevin Redhoard, who cursed her into an enchanted slumber that could only be broken by true love's kiss and stole the apprenticeship spot while she was out of commission. He picked a curse with that clause specifically because Walker is aroace and had repeatedly turned down all romantic offers, because he's a complete douchebag. Fortunately, she also turned out to have a knack for lucid dreaming, so she managed to scrape together enough magical knowledge to eventually cast a spell while still asleep, astral project out of her body, and magically pilot around her own unconscious form.
Unfortunately, everyone assumed she'd just gotten possessed by something, so she had to run for it pretty quick. On the bright side, the "eternal" part of the curse meant that her body was locked in stasis, preserved perfectly by the magic of the spell, which made her very hard to damage. Between a near-invulnerable body and a vast supply of pent-up rage, she turned out to be pretty well-suited to beating her way through dungeons and taking treasure.
Fell in with Kabibe, grumbling the whole way about sappy idiots who acted like they were fairytale heroes but didn't leave, and continued to tsun her way into friendship with the rest of the party.
Turns out, despite what certain assholes might have thought, friendship counts as true love, too.
Powers and shit: Nearly invulnerable body while cursed, skilled mage who frequently uses ice magic. Also just pretty handy at flat-out beating problems into submission.
ANYTHING ELSE: Has been angry about everything for multiple decades and refuses to stop now.
Onyx
Appearance/Image References/PB/WHATEVER: A white-haired homunculus. She's very small, thin, and delicate-looking. Because she's delicate. Please don't break her.
Bio: Created by the Demon King, who was honestly just a human dude. It was a nickname. He was a shithead necromancer who took over a country with ease, and extended his own life for hundreds of years by draining it from others. This guy was so big and so bad that he even had a prophecy of a legendary hero born under a certain star who would kill him.
Onyx is not that hero. Onyx was a failed experiment turned maid who knifed the overlord to death in his sleep and then ran.
Now on the run from the overlord's followers, the people who lived in fear under him, and the hero who had their purpose killstolen, Onyx named herself and ran for her life so she could keep her head down.
Powers and shit: BLUE MAGE. She's weak and fragile in physical combat, but upon seeing a magic used, she can replicate it with ease. This is facilitated by a good chunk of her organs and nervous system being replaced with large chunks of philosopher's stone. She's a magical powerhouse, better mage than is humanly possible, capable of great feats! Just, you know, she's a fucking homunculus, missing a lot of things that are basically vital and her life is instead sustained through the stones.
ANYTHING ELSE: Her ultimate goal is to find some kind of magic she can use to make her human!
Oudra Quartzheart
Appearance/Image References/PB/WHATEVER: rough sketch; dollmaker image
Bio: Oudra's goal in life was originally to be a wizard. This was, perhaps, not an entirely realistic goal, for a kid from a dwarven mining town who had always kind of struggled academically in the first place - she was bright and inquisitive enough, but Dwarf Highschool had kinda shitty-to-nonexistent accommodations for her dyslexia - but she was stubborn enough not to be dissuaded from applying to mage college, where she struggled through almost a semester with consistently falling grades before dropping out and slinking back home, largely because wizard school: also not great with learning disabilities.
She took a job as a miner largely to keep her parents off her back, and within a couple of months ended up on a work crew that Delved Too Deep and Awoke Things They Shouldn't. Fortunately for everyone involved, the creature they disturbed was an underachieving young fiend known as Ashweird the Conflagragant who was totally just hanging around in that cave system because he was avoiding his infernal responsibilities and strictly speaking wasn't supposed to be there, and Oudra was the one who broke through into his shitty hangout cave and encountered him. It was honestly pretty embarrassing for both parties and Ashweird essentially bribed Oudra with magical power to keep her mouth shut.
She decided not to try to explain why a: she suddenly had functional magic despite not being able to hack it at wizard school and b: why this magic consisted mostly of commanding minor demons and conjuring Unquenchable Hellfire, and kind of just took off to pursue a life of adventure and lying unconvincingly about being a wizard. Her family is probably low-key disappointed in her and she high-key doesn't care. She's 4'2" of niche occult lore, poor life choices, and creative beard styling.
Powers and shit: Ok look she has magic but it's largely what Ashweird thinks would be useful for her to have and he's got, like, negative working understanding of mortals? Most of it's either fire magic - she can do both ordinary physical flames and The Unquenchable Flames of the Netherworld In Which The Wicked Dead Burn - or summoning and commanding minor demons, most of which aren't much good in a fight but can carry out other useful tasks or provide forbidden knowledge. She's also started studying magical theory and analysis again, which is going a lot smoother now that she's started using imps as living text-to-speech engines rather than trying to directly read things herself all the time.
She's also moderately fluent in the Infernal language and has a working understanding of Cave and Mine Safety.
ANYTHING ELSE: Is weirdly nonchalant with the shit millennial fiend from whom her powers spring, largely because she knows that he's even worse at life than she is.
OTHERS
Ashweird
Appearance/Image References/PB/WHATEVER: like, a balrog, but a scrawny one that would probably sell you weed and not even very good weed.
Bio: Ashweird the Conflagragant thought he had a pretty chill hangout spot under that mine until the dwarves broke through the ceiling and he panicked and bribed one of them to keep the whole thing hush hush because at the time he was supposed to be, like, doing things, in Hell. At this point he's pretty sure Oudra's not going to tell anyone (except, like, the other Sunflower crewmembers, they don't count) but he's pretty attached to her anyway and sometimes he gets her to dogsit his hellhound for a weekend or something.
Powers and shit: He can, like, command legions of minor demons and sow discontent in the hearts of kings and probably like fly and shit? But mostly he just sets things extremely on fire.
ANYTHING ELSE: Actually on further thought he probably could get you Hell Pot, but please, do not smoke anything Ashweird gives you.
