phase 1 Questionnaire:
1. Your experience with the rules. I started playing D&D on the red box, proceeded up to pathfinder as it came out. I ran various campaigns already, played on a few and played a couple of Pathfinder society games. 2. Your experience with PbP.
3. Expectations for playing and what you want out of the experience. I like to play evil characters. Not Psycho evil but just not the usual hero. I lie to explore the possibilities of a character working with a team that does not have particularly stringend moral restraints. 4. Philosophy as a PbP player.
5. Why you are applying to this game? Love the evil characters, heard good things about the AP and I would like to try a gestalt character. 6. Define what you think good role-playing is in PbP.
7. What is your experience with this adventure path?
Phase 2 The Ten-Minute Background:
Background: -Lucia is born from Lazarus and Helena Harpell as the fourth of 6 children. -Her father Lazarus is a wizard and a minor noble from a landless titleless cadet branch vaguely related to house Darius, not particularly known for his power but nevertheless the last of a long line of wizards of blue blood. -Lucia Sorcerous powers started to manifest when she was 6 years old. A secret she kept from her family except for her slightly bigger sister Sophia - Lucia was enrolled in a prestigious arcane school as most of the members of the family. thanks to her innate powers she managed to feign being an outstanding student of magic. She also became extremely popular among other students. -Her and other popular students of the school created a sort of secret society inside the school named "the society of thorns", it was little more than a clique of bullies with pretentious rituals really, but together they dictated the law among the students, and they sometimes dabbled in magic that eluded the consent and approval of the teachers. - As the Society of thorns becomes bolder with their experiments many members bail out, this leaves only the most reckless. -One of the members of the society, worried about the escalation, bails out and menaces to reveal the practices of the society to the teachers. Lucia suggests to punish him to dissuade him from revealing their secrets. The ex member is seized and Lucia summons and offers him to a Kyton who ends up killing him. The society desperately try to cover the death of the student and disbands a few days later. -Lucia graduates effortlessly and obtain a job as the academy librarian. -Years later upon the confession of Thelos Fellword an ex member of the society, Lucia is convicted for "consorting with dark powers". She was tried, found guilty and thrown into Branderscar Prison waiting for her death sentence. Goals:
-I would like for Lucia to be able to dabble with souls and create some intelligent items, possibly even intelligent constructs, or things even more creative and experimental. A secret Lucia Knows:
A secret Lucia Does not know:
People tied to Lucia:
Thelos Fellword: He is one member of the society who felt the pressure of the society crimes and denounced Lucia to the authorities. He was likely prosecuted too but since he was not the conjurer and given his confession and repentance his sentence is likely to be way more lenient if one was given at all. In any case he fully blames Lucia for everything the society has ever done. Galen Domadin: A student of the academy. Galen fell in love with Lucia and became quite obsessed by him. Lucia never really noticed him. If she did she would probably consider him beneath her. Describe three memories, mannerisms, or quirks that your character has.
-Lucia tends to act quite haughty with whoever she does not consider part of her Social group. She vastly overplay her noble blood. -Lucia feels incredibly witty, and often favors telling half truths rather than blatant lies, this mannerism developed in her years of magical development and experiments evolved in what is almost a compulsion to her.
phase 3 Questionnaire:
How does your character interact with the others within a group? Lucia Tends to be a bit haughty, but she has no problem working with a group. she might engage in some minor power struggle to direct the group the way she wants if such a need arises but it's hard to gain her open enmity if is not warranted. What is your character's role in a group?
How is your character not as they seems? I want one or two skills that would surprise others if they found out he knows them. Also include personality traits, positive or negative, that would similarly surprise others. She is quite the artisan, thing that might surprise people as she seem more like a girl who buys jewelry rather than work metal and gemstones for herself. From there she started to do simple decorative works on knives and other bladed weapons and eventually started to craft some of her own design, her interest in them is more aesthetical than anything else but her creations are functional nonetheless. Despite showing herself as confident, her demeanor is really a shield for her countless insecurities. She is terrified to let people know that she is more frail and sensible than she acts out to be. What are your character's goals, conscious and, perhaps, subconscious? Lucia is attracted by magical knowledge, and power to a certain extent, but all that is an end of its own. The truth is Lucia doesn't have a clear goal in life at all and finally finding a direction would be for her a goal in itself. How easily does your character love? Have they been in love? Up until now Lucia knew longing, but not real love. She is not particularly impervious to love, she just didn't met it yet, or if she did she has been unable to recognize it.
Is your character racist at all, either now or in their past? No, quite the opposite she is quite attracted by exotic people as many people prone to boredom and with a curious mind. All people believe something that is not true, both about the world around them and about themselves. What lies/untruths does your character believe about themselves and the world around them? She believes that gods are powerful being, but not something as removed to simple humans as they really are. A view that ideologically puts her at odds with the church of Mitra since she doesn't ascribe to the god any kind of special privilege. She wisely kept these views for herself thus far. How is your character about material possessions? She is careless but possessive. She wants a great deal of things but she gets bored fairly quickly with them, still she gets mad if she has to give away or lose her possession, even those she didn't really cared about anymore. What does your character perceive their major problems to be? Not being able to pursue her interests in this kind of overly-moralistic society.
What does he perceive the solutions to those problems to be? Either secrecy or the fall of the Mithrian grasp on Talingarde. What are your character's religious beliefs? As said before, she feels deities are just powerful, but not special.
What does your character fear? Judgement. Not much moral judgement but rather judgement on her value.
How much of a temper does your character have? What sorts of things set them off? She is quite controlled, she rarely loses control but she ha a vengeful side. Again her main trigger is attention, being ignored or underestimated are things that hurt her very deeply.
