2 | Sabrina Granger (née Daryl Friedman) | Sin-eater Vengeful, Mourner | "Alright, fun's over. You've hurt enough people. It's time to put you back into the ground." "Hey. Want a smoke? You look like you need someone to talk to." Sabrina is a "teenage witch", and she looks it. Somewhere in her early to mid twenties, she dresses in black with a witch hat, and even carrying a broom that she uses as a walking stick. She's a working witch, with combat boots and a utility belt. Jaded and cynical, she solves problems. Known for smoking constantly. Compassionate, but distant. Deals with supernatural problems, primarily ghosts. Geist: Grandmother is the quintessential witch. Old and cronelike, with a wide brimmed conical hat. The Wicked Witch of the woods. | Synergy 5 | Born to loving parents, Daryl was actually pretty lucky, especially considering she was trans. Having parents who accept that when you're that young is like winning the lottery. Unfortunately, having that much luck, it ran out pretty quickly. At eight years old Daryl was getting taken to a costume party in late October, driving down the freeway when dad slammed on the breaks. Not soon enough. A truck carrying metal poles crashed in front of them, and the poles flew back into the family's car. Mom and dad died. A few days later on All Saint's Day, Daryl died, too. For her, it wasn't the spears of metal or the traumatic force of her little body snapping forward. It was Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus that took her, leaving a hideous scar on her leg. She's been with the geist The Wicked Witch—Grandmother—ever since. And what a life it's been. Sometimes Sabrina can remember her parents, but she doesn't really miss them. They moved on, and she's glad for that. She's spent her life advocating for the dead and enforcing her often contradictory views of Life and Death. She works with whoever she needs to, and doesn't bother with secrecy; not that she's out shouting what she can do. Technically homeless, in the sense that she doesn't own the run down speakeasy in the basement of the old house that she lives in, Sabrina is a freelance problem solver of the supernatural variety. Her morals are her own, and she ultimately does what she wants. But she probably won't doublecross you. | - Damien: Damn. Well. Fuck. Uh. Look, he's got emotions. Unfortunately he doesn't know how to handle them, and he absolutely refuses to admit he has them. - Pascal: Hah. Love that little kid. Saw the flag pin on her bag, so I try to be a mentor. - Makoto: Fire to Pascal's water. I don't know her as well, but they don't let cis-hets have that haircut. - Juste: Damn, old man is pretty good with the shadows, and he talks to the dead about as well as I do. I respect him. Dumbass doesn't even notice how that kid following him around looks at him, though. - Red Riding Hood: If I run into that bitch again I'm gonna put her into the ground. - Arthur: And here I thought my gimmick was silly. - Lace: Oh you dumb little bimbo. This world is too cruel for folks like us, even when you don't make everyone hate you. - Gabriel: Next time we're going to my place, hon. - Levi: I love her like a sister. Hard to find someone who can drink me out. - The Professor: Well. That was quite the experience. Never been to space before. Or the Neolithic era. | Root: Advocate; Bloom: Pollyanna Keys: Disease, Stillness, Blood, Beasts Haunt: Boneyard, Memoria, Rage, Tomb, Oracle Some Fighting Merits and Ceremonies Gender: (Trans) Woman | - You need to get into the Underworld and there's no one better to guide you. - Absolutely no one knows the Dead better than Sabrina. And they're growing restless. | |||||||||||||||||||
3 | Francis Rook | Sin-eater Kindly, Fury | "I was a real piece of shit. But you? You're a fucking piece of work alright." Formerly a police detective, he's now freelance. An intense man who really doesn't seem to like anyone. He constantly smokes, and as such he seems to cough a lot. He seems tortured and guilty, and takes it out on anyone who seems deserving. When he does interact with other supernaturals, it's usually violently. Geist: A shadow on the wall, red eyes burning, the screeching, fluttering wings in the night that blot out the moon. A spirit of vengeance. | Synergy 2 | The cop who became Juste's partner when he joined the force. The stereotypical rough guy breaking the law to get the bad guys put away. But that's not really how it works in real life, is it? You get hunches that aren't really certain. You violate the rights of people who didn't do anything. Maybe you even skim a little off the top. Take advantage of people, abuse your position. You forget that you actually did want to be a good guy and you become one of the bad guys. Then one day you get a cancer diagnosis. Not lung cancer, no, that would make sense with the way you fucking hack and wheeze. Skin cancer. Guess you didn't wear enough SPF whatever the fuck. And with the gaping abyss looming in the mirror over the sink you think about ex wives and all the lives you've ruined. Juste gave him a second chance. It came in the form of a bottle at the bottom of a river, corked up with good reason. Now a bat faced monster lives inside Frank's soul, giving him a second chance to avoid The Pit. There's plenty more people who deserve that fate. | Juste: Just one more person I never did right by. We don't talk much anymore. I don't know what I'd say. Aiden: I don't want to talk about it. I'm a piece of shit, and I doubt he wants to talk to me. Damien: Dumbass is one of the few people who seems to get me. | Root: Cowl; Bloom: Antihero Keys: Blood, Chance, Grave-Dirt Haunts: Memoria, Tomb, Rage Gender: Cis Male 😔 | ||||||||||||||||||||
4 | Joy Devivre Banshee Mask | Sin-Eater Kindly, Fury | "You're going to regret that, it's time you face a real hero... HENSHIN!" An androgynous twenty something with a rockstar flair and the skills to back it up. When they get into a fight, they use the Caul to become the superhero Banshee Mask (you probably never heard of him, he wasn't that popular back in the early 00s). Geist: A big burly luchadore, with a candy skull mask covering his whole face, practically suffocating him. He speaks in Mayan and poses dramatically. | Synergy 1 | The only survivor of a massive car accident that killed their whole band and several other people. She suffers from survivor's guilt and wants to make the world a better place before she's gone for good. | Mr Midnight: My closest friend. We will bring justice to this world and the next. Liam: Sweetheart! We need to jam more, but this occult shit keeps getting in the way. Leo: Oh, shit, another superhero, let's do a crossover event Frank: Teacher thinks he's so sad and no one will care, dumbass doesn't realize we already do Sabrina: She ain't that old but she's like a mom to the rest of Westside. Or at least a cool aunt. Aiden: I bet he's got some great emo poetry. Lizzy: Kind of a jerk, but hearing there's a contest for her hand makes it sound cool. Gotta put in more training with Mr Midnight first. Jinxy: She's trouble, but I think she just needs some friends. Glad she's on our side now. Goliath: Guess we can't all the the talky type. | Remembrance: Can gain ●●● in any martial art Haunts: Cowl, Dirge, Rage | ||||||||||||||||||||
5 | Hobie Kochiyama | Sin-Eater | "It's a metaphor for capitalism, brother" Hobie is a young queer kid with mixed Asian and Black heritage, his outfits a mishmash of punk stylings and the occasional gender fuckery, buttons and enamel pins. They're a dyed in the wool anarchist, and dead set on helping to fight the power. Sometimes they're overconfident. Geist: A buff woman in a boiler suit with a bloodstained American flag bandana and a rivet gun, he face behind a welding mask. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
6 | Fatima Khan | Sin-eater | "That's certainly quite a specimen, I've never seen an animal like that before!" Well into her thirties, and often wearing a hijab, Fatima is a Muslim woman from Britain. Nervous with the world she's been thrust into, she's got the flair of a scientist. She has a long suffering approach to the many younger supernatural denizens of the city. Geist: A massive sauropod with light feathering of bright colors, and fangs and teeth. It rarely makes a full appearance. | Sabrina: She is helping me understand what I'm going through much better. Frank: Mr Rook puts on airs of being unlikeable, but he has a good heart, I think. Yurei: I do not know what they are, but Amy seems to like them. Wither Lee: This one seems to know more about what I am than I do, but scares me. Pascal: Ever since I died, this girl has been trying to ask questions I don't have answers for. Yael: My favourite colleague, though we're in different departments. August: The mysterious benefactor, his family founded the museum. | New to all this ghost business. Kind of posh. Knows more about dinosaurs than I do. Favourite movie was Jurassic Park | ||||||||||||||||||||||
7 | Josette "Jinxy" Jordan | Bound Bereaved | "No, you are not the one." Seemingly dangerous but actually a mostly-harmless weirdo who obsesses over people, often ghosts. Curse Enthusiast with a gothic lolita fasion vibe. Obsessed with ghosts, she was murdered by a Reaper and was brought back by a Geist. Geist: A sopping-wet corpse in a rotten bridal gown with a moldy black veil covering her whole face. She sobs unintelligibly instead of speaking. | Synergy 2 | Jinxy is a reclusive weirdo who lives in a run down but once nice house she inherited from a creepy aunt. They have been able to vaguely sense ghosts for most of their life, and spent a lot of time in gravyards performing occult rituals which actually sort of worked. One worked too well, and almost opened an Avernian Gate in a graveyard in upper Ashcroft, causing a Reaper to appear and slice off her head. She was saved by The Black Veil Bride, an equally-obsessed ghost of a jilted lover who drowned. Black Veil Bride, unfortunately, is not particularly interested in curbing Jinxy's bad habits and tendencies, so recently she has grown more aggressive in her stalking. Her obsessions tend to be fleeting, if frightening, as Hobie Kochiyama finds out. | Black Veil Bride: I will help you find them. Hobie: Let me be with your Geist! Joy: I bet I'm not the only one who follows you around. Frank: Who do you think you are? My dad? The Detective: Really cool, but not worth being around Frank. Sabrina: You remind me of Aunt Bruna. I like your Geist. Wither Lee: Why are you so mean to me? You're as weird as I am! Fatima: A real dinosaur? That's amazing! Please show me more. Juste: Not another Frank! You don't even have a ghost. Go away. Yurei: I want to be like you! How do I do what you do? The Headless Horseman: EEEEK! Not again! | The Curse ●●●, Boneyard ●, Shroud ●, Manic States (Obsession), Safe Place ● Keys: Stigmata, Tears, Cold Wind Her Remembrance mimics the effect of Awe, the first power of the Vampire Discipline Majesty She knows the Persephone's Return Ceremony, but is too scared to use it alone. | Jinxy is stalking someone new. Someone alive this time. Are they in danger? | |||||||||||||||||||
8 | Malthe Weir | Bound Kindly | "I'm not a hero, I just play one on TV." A famous up and coming movie star, in that genre of "weird looking twink who's pretty hot". You probably saw him in that big fantasy blockbuster that came out last year. He's unconventionally attractive, but can pull off a killer Blue Steel. There's something byronic about him, with his curly hair and soulful eyes. He wears casual street fashion, but you can just imagine him wearing a silk shirt, open at the chest, and staring out the window in deep contemplation while dying of consumption. Geist: A sword floats around Malthe. Sometimes it's a rapier, other times a broadsword or claymore. Most often it takes the form of a traditional English straight sword, the etching on the blade nonsense and the crossguard and pommel ostentatious. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
9 | The Headless Horseman | Reaper | A real, actual headless horseman atop a skeletal horse, in revolutionary-era coat, carrying a cavalry saber in one hand and a lit jack o' lantern in the other. Rarely seen outside the underworld, and only appears to hunt powerful ghosts or Bound. It always aims for the neck. | Rank 5 | An old and powerful Reaper. Not much is known about it, besides that it was responsible for Jinxy's first death. | Jinxy: (Unearthly howling) | |||||||||||||||||||||
10 | Nemo | Reaper | "I miss you so much. Please come back to me." Ghosts are often very lonely and obsessed with the past. It is no surprise, then, that predators exist which prey on the dead's desire to reclaim their memories, especially if those memories are a person. Nemo is a true horror of the Underworld, a Reaper which takes on the form of a ghost's dead loved ones, luring them in with the temptation that they will be rejoined in death. When they get close, Nemo unfolds like an insect emerging from a cocoon, and pierces the desperate ghost before ravenously devouring it and bringing it back to its lair in the Underworld to torment. | Rank 6 | Nobody knows if Nemo has always been a single ghost, or multiple ghosts wearing the Face Of The Faceless Deathmask. It is possible that it has been replaced by one of its own past victims before. No Bound has managed to defeat it, and it occasionally brags that several of their number have fallen victim to the same trap that has claimed so many of the Absent. If this is true, its lair, wherever it is, is likely littered with Deathmasks of their Geists. While Nemo doesn't seem picky about what it eats, it poses a particular threat to Bereaved, exploiting their desire to find a lost loved one. | It can read memories of the dead, and shapeshift into people it sees in those memories. Its disguises aren't perfect; while it might know some things said by the lost loved one, it has no context for them. It also doesn't know if the person it's impersonating is alive or not, just that its potential victim misses them. It is still a ghost, so if the victim knows that the person is still alive, it might give away the trick. | |||||||||||||||||||||
11 | "Father" Simon Melotis Michaelangelo Who is Like God | Tyrant Vengeful, Fury Slasher (Avenger) | "Requiesce in pace, sit tibi mors absolutionem." "The Tribulation is at hand, and I shall cleanse the world of Sin so that He may return." A handsome man of Italian descent who bears a smile to all around him. He cares for children and the poor and tends to his flock with devotion. He does however preach destruction and death to those who oppose God. Geist: A biblically accurate Angel, the gears of the great Machine grinding and the wires twanging as it speaks out in bold brass "BE NOT AFRAID", but the Angel is bound by chains of black iron inlaid with blood red. | Tyranny 6 | Sabrina: Suffer not the witch to live. Keanu: When next we meet, I will repay him tenfold for this scar. Juste: A sinner if ever there was one. Snuff Doll: Whore of Babylon. Jacky Frost: A temptress Hamsaperiel: Will he help me rid this city of pestilence, or will he Fall to Hell? Pepper: It is unfortunate when the innocent become infested with sin. She has a pure heart, and yet she turns away from Him. Alecto: A heathen and a heretic. | Fucking nuts Leads an offshoot of the Tribulation Militia called the Lambs of God. | |||||||||||||||||||||
12 | Aiden | Changeling Fairest (Incubus), Spring | "That seems like a terrible idea, but whatever you say." "People are not good to each other. I suppose they never will be. I don't ask them to be. But sometimes I think about it" A young man with peroxide blond hair that never seems to need touching up, even along his body. He's generally agreeable and friendly. Like many a queer youth, he seems to subsist off of sex work and couch surfing. Friendly but distant. He doesn't stand up for himself, but he will stand up for others. Usually seen wearing a band tee shirt from something from well before he was born. Mien: That pale blond hair is a shock of snow white, and Aiden looks like a prince of the forest, with velvety little antler buds and the legs of a prey animal. A cute little rabbit's tail to match. Beware the fangs and claws, though, even prey will fight. | Wyrd 2 | There once was a little tomboy who wanted to be a man. All she could ever manage was to get called a dyke. She liked hanging out with the gay guys, but they always rejected her when they realized she was binding her chest and had nothing but a sock in her pants. That was until she found a man who told her he could make her dreams come true. That man was a fucking liar. But, still, that little tomboy became a prince, just like he always wanted. So what if it came with losing who he was, forgetting everything, just drifting along as a little thing to look pretty. But then he got free. He busted out. Well, was busted out. He came along with others. And he's sort of had that same sense of coasting ever since. He joined the Spring Court, but not through any real convictions. It's just... better than being alone, right? To be with someone, and make them feel special? And maybe they'll make him feel safe in the meantime. | Leo: I really like Leo. He's not my usual type of guy, but I like being held by him. "The Owl" makes me feel safe. But we're not a couple or anything. I mean... wait, did Leo say anything about that? Keanu: God, I swear he's like my dad. I mean, like a dad, not my dad specifically. Lame as hell. But he's cool, yaknow? He looks out for me. I wish he wanted to be more... Lace: I love him, but he is dumb as a brick. I sometimes feel bad. But I try to take care of him when I've got the cash. Besides, sometimes he helps me earn it. But I figure I'm negotiating, I should get the bigger cut. Sabrina: She makes me feel like such a faggot (positive). Chaz: Look, I don't want to be all fucking sentimental, but knowing there's a trans dude old enough to be my fucking granpa still kicking around is, like... It's nice. Damien: Oh my God, what a fucking loser. He still has my jacket. Don't let him tell you he lost it. God, he wasn't even a good lay. Okay, he was kind of a good lay. But he's mopier than I am. Chastity: This bitch is crazy. Usually it's male johns who suck the most, but she kept telling me to hit her and then laughed when I broke my wrist. Then she broke two of my ribs. She still sends me gifts sometimes. Fucking nutso. Pixie: She's so fucking dumb. I can't wait to see her again. | Steed: Pathfinder; Sword: Might of the Terrible Brute; Oathbreaker's Punishment; Crown: Mask of Superiority, Summon the Loyal Servant, Spring: Cupid's Arrow, Wyrd-Faced Stranger Merits: Striking Looks, Sympathetic, Spring Mantle ●● Minor Frailty: Can't refuse a kiss | - No one has a hook up quite like a Spring Courtier. You need a fix? Pal, you don't even know. - He's fallen in with a bad crowd again, but you know he's good. You can help him out. | |||||||||||||||||||
13 | Keanu Haight | Changeling Elemental (Razorhand) Spring | "Let's all just chill. How about a cup of coffee?" An aging himbo surfer, complete with puka shell necklace and hei matau. He clearly was some kind of a warrior, and has the body to match even into his sunset years. He seems capable of harm, but these days he refrains from fighting. He runs the coffeeshop Storybook, and would rather people talk through their problems instead of coming to blows. Mien: Keanu is straight out of a storybook. Literally. His body is made of layers of yellowed parchment scribbled on in indecipherable writing. When he summons a blade with his kith ability, it appears to him as if it were straight from an illuminated manuscript, the sound of pages fluttering. | Wyrd 5 | Keanu's so old he doesn't even know where he's from, or when he was taken. All he remembers is being the Hero. The one from the storybooks. All of them. Rescuing damsels, slaying dragons. And then one day he just realized that it was hollow. He smelled salt water, and it sparked a memory. The ocean? Whatever it was, it was enough. He slew the greatest antagonist of them all: The story itself. And he took the damsel prince with him. They got separated a bit, and he got out first. The Damsel Prince didn't even recognize him when they met again. Maybe he wouldn't have, without the Icon. But the kid was happy enough, so he didn't worry about it. Keanu got some money. Turns out that's pretty easy when you have supernatural abilities. And he bought a little coffee shop. People think he's weird, but he tries to be friendly enough, even if he doesn't really understand the world he lives in now. | Aiden: Good kid. I'm glad he's safe. Already went through Hell and High Water to pull him out. Dalandau: Sometimes he comes into Storybook late at night and sits by himself. He always puts on a smile when he sees me looking, and raises his coffee cup. Lizzy: I'm not coming back, sorry. I'm out of the game. Sam: If you can get that problem of yours under control, we'll discuss letting you come back. Colleen: Get lost. The only monster around here is you. | Merits: Summer Goodwill ●●●●●, Spring Mantle ●●● | ||||||||||||||||||||
14 | Jacklyn Frost Ice Hearted Spring Queen | Changeling Elemental (Snowskin) Spring Duchess of the Icebound Heart | "It's so cold, won't you let me warm you up?" "Take a treat, dear. Turkish delight, won't you?" The Queen of Spring, though with such an icy heart you'd think she was Winter. Cruel and vicious when she needs to be, the moments of compassion she shows reveal her to be the thaw of early Spring, when the world is still chill, but the flowers bloom anyway. Mien: Her skin is pale white, and her chest is crystaline clear with a beautiful, warm flower frozen at the center. Flowers bloom at her step, but they have to shake off the hoarfrost first. | Wyrd 4 | Aiden: An up and comer. Gorgeous little thing, he knows how to wrap men around his finger, but he's too shy to do more than beg for cash after a quick lay. Duquesa: Oh, that miserable little spider. When the Others drag me back I'll still be paying off that bitch's debts. The Professor: I feel like I'm dreaming. Being with her was terrifying. But exciting. Francis: Oh you poor thing. Come here, let me make you twist and turn. Let me play with your heart and give you everything you desire and leave you unsatisfied and wanting. Chaz: If I had a heart it would beat for you, but alas, you broke it. Ambrose: Do you want blood, or simply to be fawned over? Sarah: Let me soothe your shattered mind, little wolf. Facts O'Malley: Read my lips: Serafina is innocent. | Spring Crown | |||||||||||||||||||||
15 | Lady Lizzy Burning Hearted Summer Queen | Changeling Beast (Chimeric) Summer Dragonslayer Knight | Renfaire Queen and biting socialite swordsman | Wyrd 4 | Artemis: C'mon. At least try to win my hand. Etch: Fight back. I know you can. Arthur: He could win it, if he wanted. Crazy as a Changeling, but I guess that's how you get good vampires. | Summer Crown | There's a contest for her hand. Anyone who defeats her in a duel, she has promised to wed. Nobody has won yet. For what purpose did she make that Pledge? | ||||||||||||||||||||

18 | Fritz Fitzwilliams Fritz the Kosher Butcher | Changeling Ogre (Gristlegrinder) Winter Gourmand Knight | Jewish butcher who remembers the dead and wants to find the perfect meal. | Wyrd 3 | Granny Gewyn: "Such a sweet young lady.

He manages The Homing Pigeons. | Wyrd 6 | He gave up his face, his name, and who knows what else to form the Contracts that became the Winter Court. These days, he's rarely seen outside of Freehold events. | Granny Gewyn: "Only a fool ignores the observations of one who has survived that long." | May sometimes call upon the Winter Crown | ||||||||||||||||||||
20 | Artemis Ironarms | Changeling Wizened (Bridgeguard/Stonebones) | The blacksmith of the Summer Court, known for her metal prosthetic arms. Has been Summer Queen in the past. Her cheaper stuff is sold at Hard Edge. | Wyrd 4 | Keeper: Muspelheim (The Forge) | Lizzy: She's cute, but she doesn't understand that sometimes a girl needs a break from steel and shouting. And she's rude to Etch. | Fireproof, armored skin, forges with her "bare" hands except when using iron. | ||||||||||||||||||||
21 | Etch, the Miracle Medic | Changeling Darkling (Asclepius) Spring | "This doesn't look so bad. I'll have you right as rain in an hour." She looks like a silent hill nurse. Spring Ambassador to Summer. | Wyrd 3 | Keeper: The Dreamer (Abattoir, the Killing Games) | Artemis: She's romantic, she's majestically strong, and she can pick me up without stabbing herself on a rusty needle! Lizzy: We can't make everyone happy, I guess. Vivienne: There's nobody I trust more to keep trouble outside of the operating room. | Spring Mantle ●●●●, Summer Goodwill ●●●, Autumn Goodwill ●●●, Winter Goodwill ●●●, Lethal Mien, Healing Contracts, Medicine ●●●●● | ||||||||||||||||||||

"Gardening is like, far out, man." | Wyrd 3 | Gained her title by growing an extremely powerful flower called an Amaranth. She has been Spring Queen in the past, but not recently. | Ascending Ones: They're always asking me for weird stuff. They're not cops, are they? Facts O'Malley: Not sure how much I can help you, but Serafina is innocent. Ricardo Mortis: Absolutely not. He's not allowed anywhere near my garden.

30 | Vivienne L'Amour | Changeling Fairest (Chatelaine) Summer | "Oui, it would be my great pleasure to… I mean, no, clean it yourself, jerk! Don't tell me what to do, Monsieur!" A tomboy-turned frilly french maid who is going to make it everyone's problem. Despite her lacy apron, pretty shoes, and cartoonishly thick accent, she can snap your wrist if you piss her off. She guards Etch's clinic. | Wyrd 2 | She used to be a sporty tomboy before the Gentry known as Monsieur du Manoir broke her into pieces and remade her as its plaything. She escaped by demonstrating that under all the lace and frills, part of her never broke. The big bay windows did, tho, when Vivienne put a couch thru it. | Lizzy: She is très fantastique at ze sword. Zat is all I shall say about 'er. Etch: Ze Madame 'as put back togezzer people 'oo I would 'ave given up on.

Such sadness, such pain, always a smile." | Her nonsensical ramblings and stories contain coded prophetic messages. The Homing Pigeons were founded to record and decode them. | |||||||||||||||||||||
32 | Jess "Facts" O'Malley | Changeling Darkling (Librorum) Autumn | "Just one more thing." A slender little blonde thing that looks like she could be poured into a dress, except she's often more interested in slacks and a button up. She talks with the completely fake midatlantic accent, and uses innuendo and wordplay. She's like a cosplayer sometimes, but when something catches her attention she'll doggedly pursue it until she has an answer. Mien: A femme fatale, with gentle saxophone music following her everywhere. She plays the detective instead, and there's smoke and scotch there as well. Here's looking at you, kid. | Wyrd 2 | Jaws: We got out together, we're gonna stick together. Amara: She needs to ask the right questions before she gets anywhere. Erin: I was once a dame like that, then one day, everything went tits up like a spent shot glass. Na'amah: When a knockout like this walks into a room trouble isn't far behind. Serafina: It seemed like a cut-and-dry case. Which always means there's a piece missing. I think that redhead is a red herring. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

35 | Lilith "The Magdelene" | Changeling Fairest (Draconic, Incubus) Spring | "Worship like a dog at the shrine of my lies, tell me your sins so I can sharpen my knife, I'll offer you that deathless death." A mysterious woman who tends to dress as a very slutty nun at Freehold functions. She has a cult of worshipers who seem more than willing to do horrible things for her, though she dotes on and blesses them with her love. Mien: A terrifying demon, beautiful and terrible. | Wyrd 4 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

37 | Delia Button "Lazuli Arcana" | Changeling Wizened (Muse) Autumn | "Here, follow my instructions and you'll do just fine." "You've had enough of all this crystal healing bullshit, eh? Fine, come into the back and I'll show you some real magic." "Lazuli Arcana" has blue hair and pronouns and runs a little shop of woo filled with all kinds of fortune telling paraphernilia and knicknacks. Her tattoos, all in a pretty blue that seems to shimmer in the light over her dark skin, never seem to stay the same. Maybe she paints them on? She dresses in the usual garb of a new age bullshitter, with silk scarves and hanging coins. She tells fortunes with cards, though she never swindles anyone who wants something serious. Those people always seem to get help they need, even if she has to teach them how to take care of themselves. Mien: Parchment and ink, faded blue. Scrawlings and drawings line her skin, ever changing. Her chest and back will always have a different pattern, something strange and mysterious. Tools and weapons. They glow when she spends glamour. | Wyrd 3 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
38 | Serafina | Changeling Elemental (Flamesiren/Uttervoice) Spring | Mask: Perky, bright-eyed, wild-haired young woman with a lovely singing voice, but unable to speak intelligibly. Mien: Her fiery hair swirls atop her head and from the vibrant feathers of flame composing her arms. Her huge red eyes glow and give her a distinctly mothman-like silhouette. | Wyrd 2 | Keeper: Muspelheim (The Forge) | Jacklyn Frost: [Happy chirping] Facts O'Malley: [Pleading eyes] Goliath: ... | If she speaks, things around her burst into flames. Her singing is lovely as long as she doesn't add lyrics. She can fly very short distances and walk unharmed thru flames. | A serial arsonist has been burning down houses, and some people have died. Serafina has been seen at many of these fires, but she always tries to rescue people from the flames. Surely she can't be responsible, can she? | |||||||||||||||||||
39 | Nacrea Blank | Changeling Elemental Prismatic Autumn (Trick Or Treaters) | "There are people in this city who think they're above fear. They're the ones who deserve it most." An angry, bitter artist who despises the rich and powerful that run Ashcroft and seeks to force them to live their lives in constant terror. They are the founder and leader of the Trick Or Treaters. Mask: An albino enby who is constantly splattered with paint and smells like acetone. They seem to have new tattoos every time you see them. Mien: A glossy, faceless mannequin made of mother-of-pearl and the rainbow sheen of oil paint. | Wyrd 3 | Mayor Belmont: Someone needs to stick an apple in that pig's mouth and shove him in an oven. Magnifique: Rich douchebags like that think art belongs to the rich. I'd love to splash some pig blood on that pop junk they call "art". Maltecora: The freehold may not trust her, but as far as I'm concerned, Mal is good people. Yurei: "Regent" is only marginally better than calling yourself "king" or "queen". But someone has to win that popularity contest, I guess. August Wainright: The worst kind of parasitic monster in the city: a landlord. Serafina: You're burning the wrong houses. O'Malley: What are you, a cop? Leave me alone. Ricky: Go forth and spread destruction, my brother. | Autumn Mantle ●●●●, Parkour ●●●●●, can paint graffiti that they can later explode | |||||||||||||||||||||
40 | Jacqueline Blues | Fetch | "You think that's something? Let me tell you about the time I fishtailed the jeep during a chase scene. Went right over the guardrail. Managed to get out of that with just a broken wrist, but the sensation of free-fall? The dizzying freedom of flight, and the pounding adrenalin rush of knowing these could be your final moments? That stays with you forever. It was back in the summer of '96, on the set for Wild Gears 3..." A member of a biker gang turned stunt driver, Jackie is well into the sunset of her life, though she doesn't feel nearly as old as she should after all the injuries she's had. She feeds the neighborhood cats and tells the children stories their parents probably wouldn't want them hearing. Still dresses in jeans and a white tee shirt, and pulls out the leather jacket every now and then even though her bike has been on bricks for a decade. Mien: Jackie is made of old bones and animal skins, once wet and sticky and raw, but now dessicated and bleached by the sun. | Wyrd 2 | Maltecora: "Jesus fucking christ! It's like something out of my nightmares!" | Needle: Anarchist, Thread: Acceptance Echoes: Mimic Contract, Summon Shard Some Driving merits and motorcycle repair. | |||||||||||||||||||||
41 | The First Floor Toilet | Hedge Ghost | An amalgamation of all the urban legends about the always-broken first floor toilet stall. Sometimes appears as a blood-splattered woman, sometimes as a businessman full of bullet wounds, sometimes something else. | Rank 3 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
42 | Chaz Happenstance Father Christmas | Changeling Wizened (Broadback) Winter | "Don't make me put you on the Naughty List." A short, barrel chested man with a bushy beard that he grows out for Christmas, when he listens to the saddest stories of all the children who want what they can't have. He smiles like a kindly old grandfather, and is always there to listen to a sad story. The docks are full of them, with immigrants and laborers on the bottom rung doing backbreaking labor. But he never complains about the work. He won't start a fight, but he will finish it, and when he does everyone seems more inclined to listen to reason and work together. Mien: This man exercises his right to bear arms in the most literal way. He has an ursine face, and his body is covered in hair. His mantle warm for Winter, but the warmth of a fire in the snow, a flickering heat that leaves you with sadness and longing as the chill blows through. | Wyrd 4 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
43 | Wither Lee, the Ashwalker | Changeling Elemental (Wisewitch/Helldiver) Winter | Looks like a barely-lit charcoal skeleton, constantly smouldering and flaking, leaving footprints of ash in their wake. They do not seem to care whether the people they work with are Sin Eaters, Tyrants, or Reapers. | Wyrd 3 | Used to be a fiery explorer until something they saw in the Underworld horrified them so much that it turned their flames to ash. Now, they are determined to keep the doors to the Underworld closed, no matter what. | Sabrina Granger: Reckless and irresponsible, hopping back and forth across the threshold with no consideration for how dangerous it is. Still, she reduces the number of ghosts in the city, and doesn't usually bring things back with her. Jinxy: Idiots like you are going to get a lot of people killed. Frank: I wish the rest of the living dead were as sensible as you. | Frequently steps in and out of Avernian Gates and can make pledges with Bound and Reapers. | As Reaper activity in the city increases, the Ashwalker seems desperate to find someone who will listen to their dire warnings. | |||||||||||||||||||
44 | Ragged | Changeling, Darkling (Remade, Apoptosome), Courtless | "What's in it for me?" An extremely jaded hedonist who has no interest in anything besides sating their base desires. Extremely selfish and almost solipsistic. Mask: Bald, absolutely covered in scars and tattoos, including some that don't look like they've healed properly. They usually go out bandaged. Mien: Stitched-together horror, looking more like a Promethean than a Changeling. Their parts don't even all come from the same species. | Wyrd 1 | Pixie Stixx: Useful idiot. The Amaranthine: Share, you bitch. Serafina: How much is she worth to you? Facts: "Justice" is a joke. Stop wasting your time. | Heartless, basically unkillable. They only fear cold iron or recapture. | Ragged has information or an item you want. They don't give a shit if the world is in peril. That just means you'll give them more for it. | ||||||||||||||||||||
45 | Huldra | Changeling, Beast (Lethipomp, Apoptosome) Bridge Burner | "I promise, I'm doing you a favor. You'll be safe now." | Wyrd 3 | Betrayed over and over by her Keeper. She was finally thrown away, and is determined to shut the gates of Faerie forever by ending all love. She ruins relationships, and drives people to despair and depression, but she hasn't killed anyone... yet. | Aiden: Singlehandedly undoing all my hard work. Jinxy: A careless little candle who draws some very dangerous moths. | No heart, usually low Clarity. Superficially charming, but cold and remorseless. | ||||||||||||||||||||
46 | Gary Mustard | Changeling Elemental (Becquerel) Slasher Mask | [Sounds of breathing through a heavy mask] A large man in a ratty brown trench coat and World War I uniform, complete with gas mask. The air around him is heavy and stinks and smells of death and poison. He weilds a trench shovel stained with blood. One of the more dangerous hazards of the Fountain Of Lost Coins. He murdered and replaced the previous Slasher living in the cafeteria. mien: Clouds of poisonous yellow-brown gas hang in the air around him, and the tattered remains of his suit are made of his own skin, which flakes and cracks, showing the gas inside of him. | Wyrd 4 | Keeper: The Dreamer (Abattoir, the Killing Games) | Strength ●●●●, Dexterity ●●, Stamina ●●●● Athletics ●●●, Weaponry ●●●, Survival ●●● | |||||||||||||||||||||
47 | Duquesa du Arana | Goblin Queen Fairest (Witchtooth, Leechfinger) | "I have, within my pantry, good store of all that's nice; I'm sure you're very welcome – will you please to take a slice?" Tall and imposing with too many beady black eyes and spindly limbs with long black fingers with the ocassional stiff hair, the Duchess of Spiders was clearly once a human, but now she's the embodiment of "spider". And all of Gloomwood, the largest goblin market of the city, is her web. | Wyrd 6 | A sinister but mostly-benevolent Goblin Queen who likes to take in and mentor trans girls. Her penchant for bringing mortals into the Hedge, and her widespread web of influence, has a lot of Changelings wary of her. | - Runs a Goblin Market known by many supernaturals in the city - A spider-themed mentor for Maltecora | She can shape the Gloomwood to her will. That's probably the most important thing and it doesn't matter what else she can do. | ||||||||||||||||||||
48 | Question/Answer | Goblin Queen Beast (Liminal/ Riddleseeker) | "If you wish to cross this clearing, you must answer this riddle." "No, I won't tell you the answer to Question's riddle. What kind of sphinx do you think I am? Because I am happy to explain it to you." An enigmatic, two-headed sphinx that dwells deep in the Hedge. They guard some kind of threshold and amuse themselves by inventing Contracts and challenging visitors to games or riddles. | Wyrd 6 | Possibly the oldest Changeling in Ashcroft (and may even predate the city). There are no records of them before they became a Goblin Queen. | Liminals set boundaries. Riddleseekers have Wikipedia. They also offer Goblin Contracts for very challenging riddles or for telling Answer a riddle they've never heard. Their territory protects some kind of important boundary somewhere. | |||||||||||||||||||||
49 | Scratch | Changeling Darkling (kithless) Courtless | "Don't mind me. I'm just here for the hors d'oeuvres. But if you need anything, here's my card." A strange, shabby person who seems to show up in closed-door events they have no business being in. Somehow, they blend in, despite looking like a homeless busker. | Wyrd ?? | Apparently has connections to both crime families, several major political figures, and even a few corporate boards. | Contacts ●●●●●, Barfly, Fixer, Good at making Oaths and Bargains and disappearing when trouble starts. | |||||||||||||||||||||
50 | The Frog Prince "Hopper" | Changeling, Beast (Prismatic, Venificus), Privateer | "Are you here to save me? How can I be sure I can trust you?" Gorgeous and alluring frog twink who lures other Changelings into traps for his Huntsman master. Who they truly answer to is unknown. Mask: One of the most flamboyant and babyfaced twinks in all of Ashcroft. His hair is prismatic. Mien: a fabulously-dressed rainbow poison dart frog with a sharp crown and very long fingers. | Wyrd 2 | Huntman, unknown Gentry. May also have court connections who don't know that he's a spy. | Striking Looks ●●, Goodwill (Spring) ●, and a huntsman's horn | |||||||||||||||||||||
51 | ~Prince~ Dalandau Aloise Fontre Carpathia Galliard Antonio Weiß-Cruz | Mage Mastigos Silver Ladder | "I hear your heart beat to the beat of the drums. Oh, what a shame that you came here with someone. So while you're here in my arms let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young" "You ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?" Prince is a rich idiot with no day job, but damn it's fun to be around him. He will push you to be the best version of yourself, and those around him find themselves caught in his wake. Nimbus: Let's get the party started! Sin and be free, and don't let anyone stop you. | Gnosis 3 | White Cross isn't as dumb as he seems. He knows what the world is like. He's not an airheaded playboy, but maybe he might have been, on a different Path. He'll never know, he's always sucked at knowing that sort of thing, leave that to the Witches. He carved his name on the Watchtower of The Iron Gauntlet when he was thirteen. For that brief moment when he was Lucid he saw everything, Connected. Born to a wealthy family, Dalandau was raised with the implication that he was better than everyone. Better than the servants and even the tutors. Part of him believed it. Part of him still does; after all, how many other people can travel from Hokkaido to Holland in a single step? How many people can slide across the minds of everyone around them, getting whatever they like? But no, deep in his Soul he knows he's probably worse. Worth less than the dirt beneath their feet. So he'll be better. He'll make everyone around him laugh, and smile, and he'll be that handsome prince that fights the monsters. Maybe the demons in his soul will be quiet when everyone is singing drinking songs. When the people know someone will hold out a hand when they fall. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
52 | ~Sprite~ Charlotte "Charlie" Chrysopoeia | Mage Moros, Mysterium | "Tikkun Olam. It means repairing the world. That's our job. What else is the point of these powers?" "Do you know how these two chemicals react? Me neither, so put on the goggles!" Rory is often seen wearing a post-ironic tee shirt displaying the logo of a certain beverage. Either that or wearing a proper button up white blouse and a black skirt. She has studious looking black spectacles. Despite only being 5'3, she looks every bit the substitute chemistry teacher she is. Of course, that is until she takes off her cardigan and you see her sleeve tattoo. Its incredibly detailed, practically a mural. Life and death mixing in a fungal bloom around a skull. It goes with the silver ankh around her neck that many mistake for a crucifix at first. Her academic look is also usually ruined by her boots. And the fact that sometimes she's wearing a motorcycle jacket. Sprite is a land of contrasts. Nimbus: Death, decay. But that's not it. Change. The rocks break down. Become dust. But you take those ground rocks and mix them with water and let them harden and suddenly you can build something. Death is Life. | Gnosis 3 | Sprite knew she wanted to be a girl ever since she was little. But she didn't really know how to make that change. No one had ever really told her. But there had to be some way. Of course, driven by grief and frustration, she tried a different kind of mixture. It wasn't because she wanted to die! She wanted to live! But, you know, household cleaners aren't really good for that. Especially not when you drink them. But that's fine. She woke up in Stygia. She saw Death. But not just that, she saw Matter. She saw change. She saw that even the stagnation wasn't eternal, that it had a purpose. She could feel the touch of Life even here, in the abode of Shades. And she saw how that life fed on death, and changed it into something else, something for new life. Change. The world needed change. When she woke up in the hospital, she quit lying to herself and transitioned. In fact, she kept transitioning. Why stay the same? Why keep the same hair, the same features, the same anything? Stagnation is death. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
53 | ~Ryona~ Jill Waller | Mage Thyrsus (Whipping Boy) Adamantine Arrow | "Is that all you got? I can do this all day." "Five of you against little old me? Damn that's hot." Jill is a woman in the prime of her life and can definitely kick your ass. She seems like a nice, normal woman, but she gets into fights all the time and loves it. She won't initiate one, but she'll probably still be ready to take a punch long after her attackers are winded. She's a regular fixture at martial arts gyms around the city, as well as the kind of BDSM clubs someone like her might seem an outsider to. Nimbus: Taste the blood on your lips, feel the pressure coursing through you. When Death comes, make him work for it. | Gnosis 4 | It's hard to imagine, but Jill was once a little nerd. Mousy haired, big glasses. Called her hobbies "special interests". She was even a virgin well into her twenties. Life was something for other people to live. Then she Awakened to the Path of Ecstasy. She ran, bare feet bloodied by the asphalt, and then by the gravel. The gravel became dirt. She couldn't remember how she got where she was, but something was chasing her through the forest, her heart pounding. She fell and lost her glasses, but got back up. And before she knew it, the shadow was upon her and she fought with it. Dug in her nails. Bit. It tore at her clothes, but as she felt the blood in her mouth, the sweat on her skin. Before she knew it she wasn't fighting the shadow, she was rutting with it. Digging in her own teeth and feeling it biting into her flesh. Pain and fear and majesty blended. And when it was done she killed the shadow that was her fear and reached between her legs and smeared the blood and semen and spit on the menhir. And smiled as the forest melted away. It's been years since that day, and Ryona has forged her soul into a stronger shape. One of intimate vulnerability and love, but also pain and fear. She controls that fear now, and doesn't let it hold her back. She tries to get others to experience that control as well, but few can understand it unless they've been to the Primal Wilds. And even then most can't. She is still that girl, though. You'd think it'd be hard to make BDSM boring, but just wait until she gets started talking about the specifics. And she'll still get a bit red if someone knows what her Shadowname actually means. | - Dated Damien | Life ◉◉◉◉: Heightened Senses, Body Control, Honing the Form, Transform, Mend Flesh, Regenerate; Mind ◉◉◉: First Impressions, Telepathy, Universal Language Attainments: Tending to Inner Concerns, Bulwark the Mind, Pain is Potential, Roleplay within Roleplay Merits: Numerous Fighting Styles, Iron Stamina | - You've been making a name for yourself and she wants to fight you.

54 | Leonardo Danielle Miguel LeBron Sunderland "The Owl" | Proximus Obrimos Dynasty (The Crusaders) | "Halt, evildoer!" Twink as fuck college student, Leo is friendly and outgoing, always seen around town doing parkour, which never seems to wear him out. He works as a courier, and while most of those use bikes, he's much faster on the rooftops. By night, he dons a custom cycling outfit and a mask and patrols, looking to stop crime as a costumed vigilante. | Gnosis 0 | One day a woman left her baby in an alleyway in the snow. She was going to come back to him, once the people after her were dead, but when she got back she saw four women fawning over the little baby, saying how it was so awful someone left him here. That alleyway lead to the green room of a strip club, and those four women made sure he was cared for. The first woman only ever saw him from a distance after that. She died alone, in a foreign place. Maybe she was doing what was right, but who can say. Her last thoughts were of Leo, ten years old, wearing a princess costume and holding a foam dart gun, screaming in joy as he chased his two mothers. Real mothers, who were there for him. She died with tears in her eyes, but she was happy. Leo lived the kind of life every conservative fears. Raised by sexually liberated lesbians with at least one degree in the Humanities, Leo was practically destined to become a queer communist. He also worked at a comic book shop, for good measure. Maybe that's where he got some of the stupid ideas that drove him forward. After learning parkour because of video games, he started running the rooftops. That's why he ended up seeing a woman getting mugged in an alleyway outside of a strip club. He tumbled down off the rooftop and stood up to the mugger, and got stabbed for his troubles. All three of them—Leo, mugger, stripper—were pretty shocked when the blade just snapped. And that wasn't the last time Leo managed to display abilities that were strange. He started trying to think of an explanation, but... orphan. Super powers. It made too much sense: He was an alien. And since with great power comes great resonsibility, he made himself a costume, came up with a theme, and started fighting crime. | - Learned Parkour from Gabriel - Maybe sort of wobbly is dating Aiden?

55 | ~Justice~ Juste Pascal Danielle Emmerich-Belmont | Mage Moros, Mysterium | "I don't like it anymore than you do, but come on, this shit is dangerous, kid." "Old Man? I'm only forty-eight!" A private investigator who seems to have a bent towards the paranormal. When people have a problem that's too strange, they come to him. He's sometimes accompanied by a young woman that seems far too excitable about the latest mystery. Overall he's quiet and sullen, melancholic. But he still knows how to smile, and loves to crack wise. Nimbus: Shadows darken. Do they have faces? What was that noise? | Gnosis 4 | Death ◉◉◉◉: Forensic Gaze, Speak with Dead, Ghost Summons, Ennervation, Shadow Crafting; Spirit ◉◉◉: Excorcist's Eye, Know Spirit, Command Spirit; Matter ◉◉: Detect Substance, Hidden Hoard.

56 | Erin Edgerton | Sleepwalker Ghoul/Hunter | "Alright, boss, looks like... maybe some kind of Numin? Either that or someone was really pissed off here." A young woman who always seems to hang out with Juste. She's inquisitive and wants to know more about magic and the supernatural, but also seems prone to fits of melancholy that she tries to hide. Something hurt her in the past, but she's moved beyond it. | Blood Potency 0 | Erin experienced a tragedy when she was young, and the only person there to actually care was one of the police officers. He was a man far too nice to be a cop. And he gave her a little stuffed toy and told her that she'd get through this. He knew what it was like, what'd been done to her, and he said it was good that her dad was dead. She kept that little stuffed toy. But unfortunately, that man who was too nice to be a cop couldn't keep checking in on her, especially when she slipped through the cracks of the foster system. She fell in with a bad crowd. And when mortal drugs weren't good enough, she turned to vitae. Erin became the favoured ghoul of Ambrose, and for a while she gave in, let everything wash over her as she became numb. But then she saw him again. He was too nice to be a cop, and he stopped being one. He came in, pissed at her Master and even against the dead blood in her veins telling her to hate him, she could feel the love she had for that man. It broke her out of her spell. The one who showed her kindness. She went to him after he left, shoulders knotted, and told him that he should put an end to whatever grudge he had. Her master was powerful. He would kill him. Instead, Juste remembered who she was. Not right away, not at first. But he remembered. And he came back, the very shadows busting down the doors of Ambrose' club. He left the Daeva broken and took Erin, and a few of the other bloodbags, with him. And she's been with him ever since. He doesn't love her, but he's taught her what he can. And he's kept her fed. Now the two of them work together as master and apprentice, solving problems where they can. She's even delved into magic herself. It isn't nearly the same as what Juste can do, but she knows how to dabble. The Supernal isn't the only source of supernatural power out there. And one day she might touch it just the same. | - Justice's assistant and Sleepwalker - Ghouled by Ambrose | Disciplines: Celerity ◉, Majesty ◉, Resilience ◉ Magic: Erin's Hedge Magic is whatever it needs to be; not very strong or quick in a fight, but generally just useful.

A complete loser who just so happened to luck into magical powers, she wears Hot Topic clothes and has all the crystals and Tarot cards you could ever ask for.

59 | Damien Aligheiri | Hunter (Lucifuge) | "Come on down, guys! Let's get VIOLENT!" "Fuck YOU!" The very embodiment of anti-establishment cliches, Damien looks like he stepped out of a 90s grunge band. Red and black leather jacket, bad attitude, and hair that he clearly puts a lot of work into getting to look like he doesn't put any work into it. It's pretty clear he cares a bit too much about people getting hurt around him, even if he pretends like he couldn't give a rat's ass if the world burns. Of course, he also seems to cover up the smell of brimstone with cigarettes and booze. So who knows what's going on there? | Tolerance 2 | Damien has lived what can best be described as a shit life. He was younger than most of the Children of the Seventh Generation when he came into his bloodline. He was already the son of a woman who was constantly on the move, afraid of the things that wanted to take her son from her. The cultists and monsters who took advantage of her and used her to foster a little potential antiChrist. And then one day they killed her, and Damien was on his own as a child. It's hard for a twelve year old to learn occultation and how to properly inscribe a devil's trap or ward an area. Harder still to get things like food and shelter when you're young enough that people ask "where are your parents, kid?" But he perservered. Right up until his fourteenth birthday, when he blew out the stolen candle on the stolen cake only to personally experience the violent death of the six-hundred sixty-sixth member of the Les Enfant Terribles. That was when his powers awoke, burning the home of his adopted family to the ground. Within a week, he had been grabbed by strangers in an alleyway and pulled into a van with a sack over his head, then taken to the Lucifuge. The Lady in Milan told him of his destiny and responsibilities as one of the Children of the Seventh Generation, and warned him that if he used his powers for wickedness, the Conspiracy would root him out and kill him as surely as any of the demons that had stalked him throughout his life. Now as an adult, he tends to be brash, cocky, and cynical, unable to allow himself to open up to anyone around him because of the fear that they too will be murdered by demons or some other horrible thing that might want revenge on him. He doesn't pray. He doesn't believe in God. But he does believe in Hell, and expects it to open for him one day. | Sabrina: Oh, so what, drinking and weed aren't "healthy coping mechanisms?" Well we can't all have it together. Erin: I'm apparently "a bad influence", what the hell does that mean? Gabriel: Come on, Gabe, babe, I'll help you kill your mom, is that what you want?

Folks of the city might already be aware of her antics as she tries to capture their illicit activities and post on the web.

62 | Chesepeake Fincher | Hunter (Falconi Family) Atariya | "No one could make that shot. Not for less than 5,000$ at least." The most highly skilled hitman in the city, and likely the world. In his hands, anything is a deadly weapon. His father was a soldier who trained his son how to kill from the moment he was born.

"If the Executioner couldn't stop me, what makes you think you can?" Red Riding Hood is hollow. Just looking at her you can see how emotionally dead she is inside. Her clothes are clean enough, but clearly stained or dirty. She doesn't quite look homeless, but she also doesn't look like someone who cares. But when you look into her eyes... they're vacant. Empty. And she always seems like she wants to hurt something. Seething anger lies inside of her. Some people are too stupid to notice, and those are the ones who see only a pretty young girl, walking alone. This is a trapdoor spider, the snake with it's inticing rattle. She gave up her pain, but she's still a Hunter. | Potency 2 | EndowmentsDread Powers: Surprise Entrance, Natural Weapons Talent: Work the Room Merits: Damnable Certainty, | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Arthur is the quintessential fantasy knight, though he never seems to be around during the day. He will rescue a princess (or prince) and slay a dragon, and look good doing it. He dresses in fashionable suits and rides a Harley like it's a destrier. Sword included.

He has charm that he never turns off, and it's hard as hell not to turn your head when he walks by. Some people know they should turn it off , but not him. He's always at 100 and he always wants you to do what he says, when he says it. He's clearly used to everyone obeying.

This is a woman who can take a bullet and knows it. And she's been empowered to speak by the Prince of the city, and knows that one day she will join him by his side in Unlife for eternity.

Unfortunately for them, the vitae in her body brought her back. Now she wants revenge. | August Wainright: He's not the only source of the corruption eating the heart of this city, but he sure seems determined to spread and profit from it.

The looks of a towheaded teen heart throb contrast with a wide eyed childish excitement at the world and difficulty coordinating his body and regulating his emotions. He also looks and dresses like a woman, though when pressed he wouldn't be able to really conceptualize why 🥚. Disfigurements: This is a sex doll. That skin is silicone rubber. Lifeless.

"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring." Seventy years ago, Jenny would have been a starlet. Now she feels out of place. The tradwives of the 20XXs look like the sex symbols of the 1950s. But she's still gorgeous, even if she also seems like she might be Your Mom™. She also seems so pent up, and behind that smile it's like she wants to snap. Disfigurements: Is it possible for a manequin to be beautiful? But even if that skin is flawless porcelain, it's still empty inside and useful for nothing of value. | Azoth 5 | Bestowment: Unearthly Mien Transmutations: Metamorphosis (Verto*), Sensorium (Vitrious Humor), Spiritus (Clades*, Laruae), Mesmerism (Eros*), Flux (Blight*), Disquietism (Internalize*, Redirect*), Electrification (Arc*), Deception (Stalker*) Merits: Striking Looks ◉◉, Pusher, * Calcified Alembics | - Doesn't she look like that 1950s sex symbol whose grave got vandalized way back when? | |||||||||||||||||||||
93 | All 7s Nana Natsu | Promethean Extempore, Phosphorus (Daredevil) | "If I had a heart I could love you ♫ if I had a voice I could sing." Nana Natsu dresses more fitting for Harajuku than Ashcroft, especially in the wake of the Cataclysm. How does she keep that hair dyed such a vibrant cyan? Whatever the case, she's curious and inquisitive, and seems absolutely determined to get herself killed. There isn't a single thing she seems against doing so long as you suggest it with "bet you won't". And for whatever reason she still seems to come out on the other side intact. Disfigurements: She's just a little too real. Hyperrealistic. She hits the uncanny valley, the way she moves feels too digital, and parts of her flicker and shift and break up with noise and artifacting. | Azoth 1 | Magnifique: Barely a week old and someone already wants me to sing for them?

A gentle giant who is insatiably curious about people and prefers to watch and write. She seems to be jewish, and sprinkles her speech with a bit of Yiddish. Her dark gray curls are dusted with a bit of reddish-brown. Disfigurements: The sort of thing you imagine when you hear "golem". A huge stone and clay statue of a woman, with the word "emet" carved into her heart. Her eyes are empty pools of darkness. | Azoth 2 | All Sevens: My closest companion. I want to give her the guidance I receive which she does not. Lace: They are so like a child, curious and kind. They deserve the home they have found. Je Nais: I hope Lace is right about her.

And the worst part is, she's kind of hot like that. | Azoth 1 | Oswald: Don't let him find me. I don't know what he'll do to me. Je Nais: Don't look at me like that. We are nothing alike.

97 | Oswald Marcus Johnson "The Flayer" | Demiurge Slasher | A jittery, shy man who abducts and carves up women to try and build "perfect" dolls. Redcrosse is his only success. He fancies himself a genius artist, and blames his mistakes on others. Without Redcrosse to act as bait and dispose of the bodies, he's much slower and sloppier, like he used to be before Redcrosse, so his victims have started to be found again. | Potency 2 | Redcrosse: You're nothing without me. Soon you'll see it, and come crawling back. And you'll be forgiven. But first, you'll be punished. Magnifique: I'll show you "derivative", you stuck-up, tasteless fop. Pixie Stixx: Gorgeous face. Utterly wasted on an idiot like her. Je Nais: Imagine the masterpiece I could create from a body like that. Rook: You look familiar. Juste: The cops can't catch me, and neither can you. If you keep snooping around my turf, that pretty little assistant of yours may get a free facelift. | Not very athletic or strong, but disturbingly keen with a scalpal or a pocket knife. He knows human anatomy so well that he always knows how to target a weak spot.

I am giving the world something it's never heard before! Never before has anyone asked just what is art!" Tall and androgynous, Magnifique is practically a stereotype of an effete and absolutely insufferable post-modern artist. Completely with black turtleneck and white hair, though that could be a wig. Art can say something, but what they have to say has been said a hundred times before, and in better ways. But like many people with rich backers, they absolutely have to put their opinions out there. And when they do get caught up in the grip of an obsession, they really get caught up in it. | ——— | Ambrose: Th-that name? How gauche. Never say that name again in my presence. Oswald Johnson: No, I will not allow your amateurish work in my gallery. May I suggest an art school? Amara Needless: An interview? But of course! Simon Melotis: You're welcome to enjoy the show, but please stop raising your voice. | Taste, Fame ●●, Striking Looks ●, Craft ●●● Unseen Sense? | The apocalypse is happening, and this lunatic is throwing an art exhibition.

Green haired and gorgeous, and vaguely but unplaceably ethnic with sun tanned skin you can't help but describe as "copper". Gabriel is almost always a happy and carefree person unless you've done something sincerely difficult and made him angry. He goes through life as if nothing can harm him.
