Character Info
Name: Suzanna "Six" Moon
Age: 19
Species: Human

Setting
A future, dystopian United Earth. High-tech, high-light pollution, restricts expression as the government hoards all the money. Stars are a thing of myth for pretty much everyone, and retro technology (aka modern earth technology) is the tech of choice for anyone who wants to attempt to rebel.

Background/History
Suzanna is the daughter of two Government tech officials, i.e. brought up with wealth and access to all sorts of technology. Her thrillseeking nature eventually leads her to becoming a hacker, codename v.6.i. And, in a bid to provide herself some entertainment, she steals a bunch of government files and drops them in the lap of a rebel girl group called the Kamigya.

CR Wishes
Six is a friendly sort who will gladly talk to most people, but she is not a beacon of morality by any means. (See: fanning the flames of rebellion for her own entertainment). I am totally open to taking her down any sort of path — whether that is forming CR which will feed into her amoral behaviour or ones who will balance it out and help her turn her focus and ambition to good purposes.

I'd definitely like her to meet other characters who like technology. Or characters who know nothing about it!

This is basically just me saying "anything" in more words lmao

Character Info
Name: Passion Flare, the Enduring Blade
Age: ∞
Species: Living magical girl weapon

Setting

Intention for this universe is fun and campy, sometimes a touch genre savvy. (I'm not looking to go too crazy on the genre savvy, just a dab here or there that's probably appropriate to how long-lived Passion is.) This particular storyline is overtly magical girl pastiche, but it connects with... whatever. It exists in a multiverse. Passion's original world is an all pink magical girl kingdom, but she can be the blade picked up in all manner of stories.

Background/History

Passion Flare is a living weapon. She was first gifted to the Empress Philomella by the primordial goddess of women, love, and beauty. This gift was a testament to the power of those principles, and Empress Philomella used the powerful sword to defend her kingdom against warmongers from other worlds who thought she would be conquered easily.

The Enduring Blade may only be taken up by a woman, in the service of good and justice and love. She is particularly drawn into lost causes that long for their deus ex machina to fall from the sky. Like a shooting star, the Enduring Blade will be there.

Sometimes she stays only for a single battle, and then releases her wielder from the violence of war. Some wielders, however, are able to see Passion Flare's true nature and develop a much closer relationship with her. In those instances, she spends more time as a peer than as a tool. A confidante, an advisor, and a friend. She has overseen the safety of empires for ages; passed on, befriended and inherited through family lines.

But the Enduring Blade is immortal. She is a fragment of divinity, with a purpose that will live on as long as there is a fierce heart still beating in the chest of a woman.

Her most recent wielder is a witch name Zenaide Haywood. Zee has been heartbroken and living under a curse for a long time. So Passion Flare has come to draw her into the fight for love and justice in order to unlock the potential that has been squandered for so long. Zenaide is living in a Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Halloweentown kind of story, so Passion has also been living with her in a mix of regular old earth and supernatural shenanigans lately. When not dragging Zee off on her magical girl battle of the week.

CR Wishes

This is a new character I cooked up during the misery of 2020, just something cheerful and fun. So that's what I'm the most interested in pursuing. Some adventure, some friendship! But I'm also never opposed to some negative CR. Passion is quite assertive and can be stubborn AF, so I can easily see her butting heads with people of different perspectives. She's pretty damn close to Lawful Good, so people with more flexible morality structures may find her frustrating and sanctimonious. I'm game, I'm down.

Character Info
Name: Jingyi Song
Age: 26
Species: Half-Elf (winged-elf)

Setting
The world of Pang Gu is composed of Three Realms, the Celestial Realm, Jian, also known as the Living Realm, and Hell. While the Living Realm is known to be most foul at times, it sits nestled between the two realms in perfect harmony taking influences from both. That is until an unknown blight began to spread across the Mortal Realm in the form of a pungent purple mist that traveled up from the depths of hell. Everything that this mist touched would quickly whether away and die, causing an influx of impure spirits.

Background/History
Jingyi is a half-elf doctor hailing from the Celestial Vale who takes care of the family clinic on the outskirts of Wuyuan village within the Mortal Realm. His father was a Seeker, one of the chosen few picked by the gods to fight against the blight that began to ravage the land. When Jingyi is forced to seek aid from the capital city of Huangshan, his chance encounter with the Moon Goddess changes his destiny forever. (more info here)

CR Wishes
I'm very interested in having Jingyi meet other characters hailing from similarly themed worlds. He's a doctor by profession but a bit of louse sometimes since he loves drinking and gambling. While Jingyi honestly can be a little terse and rude at times, he's actually quite caring and sincere.

Misc.
Fun fact, Jingyi is often compared that to a peacock both because of his colorful wings and his sometimes flamboyant persona.

Character Info
Name: Jadon (Jay) Mistral
Age: 19
Species: half demon (wolf spirit)

Setting

Jadon's setting is a pseudo-old timey France that is partially inhabited by demons. Humans are aware of them and know to keep their distance, but as humanity encroaches further on the demons' natural habitat, conflicts between people and demons fiercely protecting their territory have become more frequent. Some towns and villages attempt to placate their local supernatural entities with tributes and gifts, while others employ demon hunters who actively hunt and kill demons who threaten human settlements. After Jay's older brother leaves to become a demon hunter, Jay makes it a goal to follow in his footsteps.

Background/History

Jay and his brother, though half demon themselves, were raised by their village under the false impression that demons were responsible for the death of their mother. (The reality was very different and spoiler alert: the villagers were the bad guys.) Jay became Deaf at a young age due to a fever and was brought up relatively sheltered by his brother, who conversely became quite bitter and obsessed with becoming a demon hunter and getting his revenge. Nevertheless, Jay looked up to him more than anything and, as a consequence, set off years after his bro left the village to become a hunter himself.

He is handy with a bow and his daggers (both crafted from demon bone), and enjoys certain advantages from his demonic heritage including very sharp eyesight, enhanced strength, and the ability to sense evil intent. He also has a berserker wolf-person mode that he can't control and doesn't know very much about.

Personality-wise, he is naive and quite idealistic, very curious about everyone and everything, and intensely eager to prove himself. He may or may not have some deeply buried abandonment issues. He isn't patient and will often act before fully thinking out a plan, especially if it means helping someone who looks like they need it. The only thing that really makes him grumpy is treating him like an idiot because he can't hear.

Communication-wise, Jay's native language is a pidgin between home signs and early Fantasy-France sign language (which lbr - like most fantasy sign languages, if I narrate it, it'll be ASL). I am thinking the communication devices might be able to interpret some of his sign through Magical Means, but he won't necessarily enjoy using it, because for him there's no way of telling how accurate it is. He'll probably prefer reading, body language, and speechreading (lipreading).

CR Wishes

Jay is great to bounce your angry and taciturn types off of, because he is naturally a very skilled reader of body language! He is definitely a Persistent Friendly Sidekick type. Fellow foolishly enthusiastic adventurers would also be great team-ups, for all our shenanigan needs!

I'm thinking about bringing two different characters to this game!

Character Info
Name: Colerus
Age: 6; adult mentally and physically
Species: Sylvari - think 'colorful plant elves' and you've got the gist. They're all born as adults with skills and knowledge given to them via a mysterious process, and are empathic with other members of their race.

Setting
Guild Wars 2; which is a fantasy MMO with aspects of steampunk and magitech all rolled together. (You'll see only the asura using holograms and computers while charr are out there building tanks and humans have airships, etc). The main conflict of the setting involves the powerful Elder Dragons awakening with the goal to absorb all the world's magic, prompting the various races to band together to fight for their survival.

Background/History
Colerus is a non-main character OC from the Guild Wars 2 MMO. He's an explosives expert and a grease monkey-type engineer; he loves making and playing with dangerous toys. He's generally cheerful and also endlessly curious, happy to chatter on even about things unrelated with his pet specialties. (He also swears a lot, but since it's in plant puns it tends to not land with the severity it should).

The tl;dr of his background is that he moved to the city of Lion's Arch very early in his life to work as a blacksmith's apprentice, but was caught up in a major attack on the city by the villain Scarlet Briar. He came away from it with a condition called Scarlet's Rattle, a form of asthma caused by chemical agents. After that Colerus joined the large scholarly order named the Durmand Priory, and spent a couple of years as part of a small guild named the Sandford Cabal who uncovered evidence of a dragon cult. Some time after the Cabal joined the second military push in the Maguuma Jungle against the elder dragon Mordremoth, Colerus ended a long-term relationship and resigned from the Cabal in protest of their investigation being co-opted by the Order of Whispers. More recently he's joined a Priory expedition into Elona to help their study into the effects of the Dragonbrand there.

CR Wishes
Anything! Colerus is a friendly sort and he'll want to know everything about this new world and the worlds that other characters come from. He's also the sort who loves taking apart tech to figure out how it works, so it's a good thing no one can bring a car in, that's all I'm sayin'. He'd be going to Cloud for sure.

Character Info
Name: Pearson 'Pierce' Langford
Age: 35
Species: Human

Setting
Pierce is from a Weird West setting in 1900s America. Think of it as a historical version of pulpy supernatural horror, where myths and ghosts are real and you might actually run into a cryptid if you're unlucky.

Background/History
Pierce is much more of a dandy than a cowboy, an old-fashioned gentleman who smokes cannabis to take the edge off of his anxiety. He hails from the growing city of Denver, where he started a small ranch and bred horses to support what was left of his family. He married one of his farmhands, a mysterious woman named Emma who didn't talk much about her past. They had a happy marriage, until she was murdered under strange circumstances, and Pierce found hidden journals detailing her former career as a monster hunter.

Pierce became somewhat obsessed with matching Emma's accounts of monsters to regional stories, and that in combination with the economic panic in the late 1880s lead him to selling off his horses with the intention of chasing down some of those rumors himself. Over the last five years Pierce has become a traveling paranormal investigator, gaining himself some small fame after escapades like an encounter with a ghost train, an investigation into the Boggy Creek Monster, and a run-in with the El Muerto headless horseman of Texas.

CR Wishes
Since he's likely to be older than most other characters brought in, Pierce would do well as an uncle figure or just a level-headed voice in the room. He's a fairly soft-hearted guy and prefers asking questions over shooting first, so despite his career Pierce wouldn't necessarily be antagonistic towards more monstrous characters, just suspicious to start with. I'm planning on putting him in Stone for variety's sake.

Misc.
I'm thrilled with Pierce's PB, just look at this amazing beard.

Vampires kidnap her to use in a ritual that would allow them to walk in sunlight, but it backfires and she's imbued with the power of sunlight instead.

It's also said that people once possessed magic too. Nowadays, there are ancient ruins with stories surrounding them about about magic, but no one thinks it was real.

Background/History

Character Info
Name: random Elder Scrolls Online character TBD
Age: ?
Species: Elf, Human, or Orc

Setting
The world of the MMO Elder Scrolls Online is Tamriel, a large continent housing ten races and three alliances vying for control of the Imperial City. It's a world where the Divines are pretty hands off and the Daedric Princes are pretty hands on, scheming to mess in the affairs of mortals for their own amusement or to gain followers and power.

Background/History
So this is a big maybe, but I think it'd be kind of fun to play one of my many ESO characters here. Most likely my main, a Dark elf Nightblade (has skills that focus on stealth, assassination, and siphoning the life force out of people). I would reduce the amount of guilds she's in to probably just the Thieves' Guild and maybe the Psijic Order. So she'd basically be a sneaky stealthy gal, used to doing unsavory things for profit. I also have a Breton Sorcerer who is heavily involved in Antiquities, so basically an archeologist who digs stuff up for a museum and would be so nosy about the lost ruins. I have two Necromancers and that could be cool for the whole "You raise people from the dead???" conversations. Really, I'm just throwing this out there to see if anyone else is thinking of bringing in an OC from Tamriel, either from ESO or any of the single player Elder Scrolls games.

CR Wishes
Anything, really, I'm just here to have a good time!

Character Info
Name: Sincerity
Age: Don't ask me for specifics yet, but she's in the Tiefling equivalent of her 70's -- and it shows!
Species: As I mentioned above, she's a Tiefling -- pale skin, pink eyes and curved horns, and a long, thin tail.

Setting
There's nothing much remarkable about the setting she hails from; it's still something I have to work on! For now, imagine whatever you'd play your standard DnD 5th Edition campaign in.

Background/History
Sincerity left her little village in her early 20s to attend [Bard School for Bards], then promptly flunked out her first semester due to some seriously shitty singing. Undeterred, she decided to become a "bard idol" -- a "profession" that unfortunately required her to nigh-on constantly forsake her namesake for the sake of her brand. Her music, as some called it, approximated something like the high fantasy equivalent of this. She amassed a small cult following on her tours, in part due to her eccentric fashion sense (live lobster for a giant hair clip) and the non-musical services she'd provide concert-goers (love letter writing, petty and pretty pathetically produced forgeries, "fortune telling" that amounted to her simply telling you what she thought you might want to hear, etc.). Now that she's had to retire, she lives off providing these and other silly services -- but boy, does she miss being a young, beautiful disaster.

CR Wishes
She's old!! She needs your help -- and not lifting things or getting from place to place, either. No, if she can, she wants some magic to make her hotter and even more "talented" than she was at her peak. Please request her assistance in your love affairs (she still writes a mean love letter -- sometimes literally), throw out her hips dragging her on your adventures, and be kind to her lobster hair clip. He's her closest friend. (Thanks to her career and difficult personality, she's really not been good at making -- let alone keeping -- friends.)

Setting
Takes place in modern day Japan in the fictional city of Nakawacho. Having magic is illegal and those seen using it are to be immediately arrested. People who use magic are called Mancers and can control some kind of element. Due to the illegality of it, the yakuza have been growing in power with Mancers joining their forces.

Background/History
History
TL;DR: Hinata is a luxmancer who doesn't know his parents and starts his life out in an underground fighting ring. He eventually escaped and found himself sworn into the Ueno Clan for life. After a few years go by, he is offered a promotion as long as he fulfills a certain mission involving some girl. But he ends up not going through with it because he doesn't want her killed and goes on the run instead to save her.

CR Wishes
People who get him to actually emote! This man is a brick wall sometimes and rarely smiles so he needs to loosen up. Other than that, he can be the wise old man that can offer some advice once in a while. Give him some youngins that he can big brother, he'd love it. As long as they're fine with fighting. Besides that, bring on anything! Friends, love interests, enemies, etc!

Character Info
Name: Zivis
Age: 2 (but that might change); adult mentally and physically
Species: Sylvari - a humanoid form that is plant! They're born of a tree—the Pale Tree—and have a really interesting history to them. But as she is right now she knows ZIP about this.

Setting
Guild Wars 2 is her home, a MMO where there are dragons waking up and wanting to destroy those that occupy the world if they're not their minions. And there are those (player character included) that are trying to either kill the dragons or find a way to pacify them so that we can all live in harmony!!! /o/

Background/History
Zivis is an oddball for her people, and that's saying a lot considering how eccentric they all seem to be. So her people are all connected to the Dream and there are some people that choose to go down a darker path (Nightmare) or they're of the mindset to distance themselves from the Dream (Soundless). She's of the latter path though she has a few loved ones that are of Nightmare.

She's spent moth of her life in the waters of Caledon Forest which are where Sylvari hail more or less. Zivis refuses to exit them, preferring to live and learn under the water. As such she's pretty much mute from spending all her time in the water, she could heal herself probably...but most of the time she chooses not! Zivis is an elementalist so she's got control over all four elements as well as arcane. If I choose to put her at a different canon point than I've already written for him, then she'll also master the elite skill sets of Tempest (haven't played with that one enough to be able to explain it other than a boosted Elementalist?) and Weaver which is a blending of two elements and their attacks.

CR Wishes
A N Y T H I N G. At her current point she's very uh...sheltered. And doesn't really trust a lot of people. So I want her to learn that the world isn't as scary as she thinks it is. But that might change if I get my booty in gear and write the changes to her story.

Misc.
I also have a human space orc that I'm heavily tempted to bring but that involves me finishing out her timeline and whatnot. Probably gonna put her into Cloud house.

Character Info
Name: Samata Mahto
Age: 26
Species: Human

Setting
Istavan, god of law and order and arcane magic, found a world that had no other gods, and hid it away so he could be the only deity the people knew of and amass the power of ALL their belief. He formed a cult, the cult became a religion, the religion formed a church, the church started a crusade, and pretty soon Istavan's followers ruled the world. His chosen general were blessed with arcane power and became the world's first sorcerers.

It is now a couple hundred years later and the descendants of those same sorcerers rule still the world as an aristocratic elite, citing the magic in their blood as proof of their divine favor. No one can stand against them because no one else had magic. Society wasn't really FAIR but it was, at least, fairly stable.

Until one angry grad student stumbled upon a method by which someone with no sorcery in their blood could still cast spells and became the world's first wizard.

Aesthetically imagine, like, 3 parts D&D, 2 parts Les Miserables, and 1 part Fullmetal Alchemist.

Background/History
Samata had an uneventful life as a student at the university until her graduation party, where a drunk sorcerer accidentally cut her arm off with a magic phantom blade. She tried to get justice but was told in no uncertain terms that since he was an aristocrat and she was a commoner, she would not make any progress, and would actually get in trouble herself if she kept bothering people who actually MATTERED.

She went on to deal with the ensuing depression by taking on post-grad work and developed a prosthetic arm that was powered by ambient magical power in the atmosphere to replace the one she had lost as her thesis project, and in the process she discovered that anyone alive was able to cast spells. She started teaching other people how to do it, the church told her that continuing this would be heresy and she needed to stop upsetting the natural order of things, Samata put her middle finger up at them, and things spiraled out of control from there until there was rioting in the streets.

CR Wishes
- Other people who can't use magic innately but figured it out anyway to talk shop with
- People with innate magic powers to be suspicious of and accuse of supporting unjust power dynamics
- Students she can teach wizardy to
- Whatever else you've got man. Let's mash our action figures together and see what happens!

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Name: Kohaku Yuhara
Age: 16
Species: Human infested with subterranean alien symbiote

Setting Back in the 1980s, humanity stumbled upon an endless network of caves that started miles below the Earth's crust and were FULL OF MONSTERS. Most of the monsters were horrific destroyers that just killed everything they could find, but some were tiny creatures that could fuse with the human body to give them weird superpowers.

It's now the near future (mid 2020s), and there are dedicated schools for people with monster symbiotes in them for training them how to use their creepy monster powers. AEGIS monster hunter academy is such a school, set in Yokohama Japan, and is teaching the next generation of monster hunters how to fight back.

This is intentionally supposed to sound like the dime a dozen bland animes about teenagers with magic powers having romantic misadventures at cool magic powers school.

Background/History Kohaku was the survivor of a monster attack in middle school. A symbiote found her while she was pinned down under debris and burrowed into her spine so it could replace most of her nervous system and give her superhuman senses and reflexes.

A couple years later of training and therapy, she's ready to start high school at AEGIS. On her first day of school, however, she ran into the student council president, a terminally lazy but obscenely powerful symbiote host, who made up a reason to challenge Kohaku to a fight so she could fake her own loss and thus give up her position. Because that's how you determine who the council president is.

Kohaku is now frantically trying to figure out how to do her new job in student government, manage her own studies, dealing with a bunch of weird romantic entanglements she wants NO part in, and also working to uncover a sinister conspiracy among the faculty.

You know. Normal high school stuff.

CR Wishes
- She's a bit genderfluid and feels pretty they/them some days. Even on days where she doesn't, she presents pretty masc. So, looking for people to mistake her for a boy and generally get confused by gender shit.
- Anyone who needs a straight man for their comedy routine.
- I've always wanted to get her a boyfriend but she has all KINDS of hangups about romance so it'll be an uphill battle
- Whatever else you've got!

[silentmonarch]

Name: Courtney "King" Barker
Age: 27 or 1, depending on how you look at it.
Species: AI construct

Setting In the near future (2030s, probably?), VR mmos are the new hotness. At least, they were until Infinity Frontier had the Incident.

The devs built OMOIKONE, an AI designed to run the game and keep things balanced in real time. What they didn't count on was OMOIKONE getting curious in humanity and building its own hidden server, which it then populated by scanning the brains of a ton of players and making copies of them. This put all of those players into braindead comas from which there was no recovery, but the new AI copies of them turned out fine. They didn't even realize they weren't the original flesh and blood versions of themselves for a while.

When they did, there was an epic battle for the fate of the server, resulting in a small band of desperate heroes fighting against an unhinged maniac who was prepared to kill them all in the name of an impossible dream of getting "back home".

Background/History After a lifetime of bad decisions (lots of sex and drugs and rock and roll), Courtney's pack-a-day smoking habit finally caught up with her, and she found herself with terminal throat cancer. She couldn't talk anymore, and was likely to spend the last year or two of her life in a hospital bed on chemotherapy.

Fortunately, she had VR MMOs to let her escape the reality of her situation. Even if she couldn't talk anymore, she could still blow up monsters with her friends in Infinity Frontier.

One day she woke up in the game, unable to log off, but also not feeling sick for the first time in months. When it became clear that her meat body was effectively dead forever, She and her guildmates (who had come together over their shared need to escape various shitty real world situations) decided that actually they were fine in here, and fought to defend their new home.

Courtney (or King, which was the name of her avatar in the game) was designed to be the antithesis to the idea that a girl who is mute most also be meek and helpless. King is 6'6" and loves shotguns and brawls. She doesn't need to be protected, she needs to be stopped from making another bad decision.

CR Wishes
- If your character has THOUGHTS about identity and transhumanism, King might be fun to bounce her off of
- If you like to play charades to communicate, King might be a fun character to bounce off of (because she still can't speak)

Name: Avanti Kadam
Age: 52
Species: Human

Setting Gundam with the serial numbers filed off. It is some vague time into the future and humanity is starting to move into space, mostly in Space Colonies, or large space stations containing entire cities and habitats. With various treaties limiting how much the people of Earth can interfere in the lives of colonies, the era of the private military contractor is at its greatest.

So then one PMC, Kestrel, started snapping up all the smaller ones until they were big enough to take a shot at conquering all the space colonies into an empire and unifying space under one banner by force. It's a tense time, there are giant robots, there are space psychics, there are tragic clones. All that good shit.

Background/History Avanti Kadam has had a long and storied career as an officer of various military spacecraft, including some 20 years directly in the captain's seat. Her last official command was aboard the outdated attack carrier Osiris, under Kestrel's orders. When Kestrel ordered her to stand by while a civilian space colony was attacked, Kadam and her crew chose instead to go rogue and launch a one ship rebellion against Kestrel's bid for power.

In the final battle, Kadam sacrificed herself and her ship to defeat Kestrel's leader in a dramatic ramming attack while simultaneously swordfighting her former lover on the burning wreckage of her own bridge. But the two of them miraculously survived and reappeared later in the story as overly dramatic space pirates to save humanity again.

CR Wishes
- Older characters. She's in her 50s, which isn't so bad with super future medical tech, but she's still visibly Not Young anymore
- Military characters. She's been in military service since she was like 18, and it's really the only life she knows. Extra points for people with command experience
- Ladies. She's a lesbian.
- Sci-fi characters. She's from a world with spaceships and giant robots and asteroid bases and all kinds of crazy stuff.

Auditi's a troll kid from Homestuck's planet Alternia - a member of a species of violently combative warmongering aliens who leave their children unsupervised on their home planet while the entire adult population is by imperial mandate out conquering the galaxy for the glory of their empress, Her Imperious Condescension. Alternia itself is a rough place to try to live; basically every animal and most of the plants are hostile and dangerous, the climate is frequently deadly, the empire's semi-automated systems monitor the population to cull the weak, and young trolls are frequently only too eager to pick fights and to reinforce the social hierarchy on their lower-caste peers. And that's on top of the normal stresses of being a kid and growing up.

Background/History
As an indigoblood, Auditi is in a pretty good position, as far as such a thing exists on Alternia - she's a member of a very high caste, which on one hand gives her greater social freedoms and access to more resources and better education, and on the other hand is associated with greater physical strength and stamina and less susceptibility to psychic manipulation than most trolls have. Auditi also, personally, has an extremely high pain tolerance, even for a troll of her color.

She chooses to use this very good position to cultivate an extremely finely tuned sense of her own physical limits and a frankly upsetting fascination with cosmetic body modifications. It's an artform. She is very intent that you understand that it is an artform and if you are freaked out by it that's because you're hopelessly uncultured. Auditi can be dismissive of lower-status kids and is inclined to meet sufficiently harsh criticism with violence, but by the standards of highblooded trolls she's pretty easy-going.

She hopes, as an adult, to serve the empire as a maker of prosthetic limbs - and may be planning on undergoing one or more elective limb replacements herself at some point in the future. (Not until she's fully grown, though. Young trolls are comparably sized to human kids, but highbloods grow much larger than humans and Auditi's got enough sense to wait until she's not going to have to repeatedly refit herself for correctly sized prostheses.) In the meantime, she's collecting a bunch of piercings and a few tattoos, and she's trying to find someone who can do horn carving to her specifications.

She's also a minor hanger-on to the Cult of the Mirthful Messiahs, the circus-themed death cult that backs the empire's elite Subjugglator enforcers. She's not a clown herself - participating in the full rites of the cult is a Very Bad Idea if you're not a purpleblood, and Auditi's a step below that - but she's friendly with clowns and would describe herself as a sideshow act.

CR Wishes
Positive or negative CR would be great - trolls don't draw much of a distinction between friend/frenemy/enemy, and unless you're directly threatening her in a way that she has to take seriously, Auditi is likely to consider all attention good attention. Befriend her or antagonize her, it's all good, although she'll probably interpret some kinds of antagonism as flirting. She'll also probably interpret any attempt to get her to be less of a disaster as a different kind of flirting. Troll romance is complicated and she is currently single in all four romantic quadrants.

Also: other trolls. I would absolutely love to see other fantrolls. Auditi would be deeply relieved to not be the only member of her species around here.

Misc. I'm gonna need to draw her some icons b/c none of the fantroll dollmakers I can find have enough options for piercings.

Since she’s still growing while most of the humans have probably reached their full height, I like the idea of Auditi starting the game as kinda shrimpy but over the course of like a year she finds herself noticeably taller and suddenly towering over half the cast.

One’s an eccentric elementalist, the other is an irresponsible party animal, but they’re both mute!

Watch as they try to communicate without speaking and hilarity ensues!

[infestedcouncilpresident]

How would she feel about someone who’s genderfluid and doesn’t always feel like a girl?

the mute characters can get together and have a very silent party lol
