[hider=Character Sheet] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/OEvsajE.jpg[/img][/center] [b]Name:[/b] Vladlena Belyakova [b]Appearance:[/b] Vladlena's new body appears to be that of a well taken care of, large human sized doll. Standing at just five four, she's rather diminutive and fairly unassuming with long white hair, grey eyes, and dressed in an elegant dress. While she can reasonably pass for a human if she covers up, the fact her body has visible doll joints clearly mark her as something inhuman. [b]Age:[/b] The doll appears to be in its late teens [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Personality:[/b] Vladlena, on the surface, seems like a fairly normal person if a bit eccentric with a love for being overly dramatic sometimes. Mixed with an almost mad-scientist level passion for engineering, she can come off as a bit overbearing at times. Mechanical engineering? Mapping out a new bridge to be built? Calculating stress loads for said bridges? Making an entirely new mechanical contraption using physics? [i]hold her vodka, she'll have this figured out in an hour.[/i] She's friendly enough, with a penchant for teasing other mercilessly and being a bit smug sometimes, but generally only has interest in her own musings and business. Selfish and a mild bit of a pleasure seeker, she does what she wants and doesn't let most people get in her way, though she's not one to simply trample over others without reason. [b]History:[/b] Age: 22 Location of Birth: Voronezh, Glorious Mother Russia! A college student from The glorious Mother Russia! Land of Vodka and babushkas! Vladlena had a fairly normal life - well, as normal as life can be in the motherland. Not wealthy in the slightest, but by the time she was ready for college, she had more than impressed several people with her intelligence and academic abilities, especially in the more physical sciences such as physics and engineering. So much so, she was able to attend the Lomonosov Moscow State University, on of the top university's in the country, even rejecting other scholarships from overseas, being a bit of a nationalist at her core. As expected, she excelled in her classes amidst the typical college type parties, drama, and other such life problems. However, despite all her success...she never could say she could get along well with people. She saw them as mostly tolerable annoyances, but as long as she had her work and a few close circle of friends, she'd be fine. A proper introvert, some might say. How did she end her life? Well, she was drinking, drawing up some plans for a test, got a little [i]too[/i] excited, believing herself to be on the verge of an engineering breakthrough, ran out of her dorm and ran face first into a parked delivery trick, at a sprinting pace. Died from a concussion. Not exactly a glorious way to go. [hider=Inventory] - Clothing, currently worn - A bundle of thread stuffed into her pockets. [/hider] [hider=Puppet Space] [i][b]Puppet Space:[/b][/i] A personal Hammerspace seemingly for the sole purpose of storing her personal constructs. The space itself is seemingly infinite, and can hold up to a seemingly endless number of deactivated dolls. The space itself acts to both preserve and store them, keeping them in pristine condition until they are needed by Vladlena. To store a puppet, she must physically be touching a it, though she can 'chain' store so long as said puppet she's touching is also touching another puppet. She can 'summon' things from this space within a few yards around her in any direction, though depending on the size of the puppet in question the time it takes to successfully pull them from the space varies. Small puppets can manifest in a matter of seconds. Human sized ones could take at least twenty, while larger ones take more than a minute, and sometimes even have to [i]force[/i] their way out of the portal. The space can't store anything that in some manner 'contains a soul', meaning inanimate objects and materials are capable of being stored inside this space for future use. [/hider] [hider=Skills] [hider=Tier 1] [i][b]Doll Creation[/b][/i] - A skill that possessed dolls have that involves doll repair, and doll construction. After all, as they can't simply naturally heal if a part of them becomes damaged they must repair their own bodies. Their arm becomes damaged, they discard it and make another. From wood, iron, steel, etc, which can also increase their own durability. The only stipulation is that it must be similar to their already lost limb to function. Dolls created with this skill must be at least, somewhat vaguely human looking. [i][b]The Puppeteer[/b][/i] - A skill sometimes possessed by dolls known as 'Puppet masters.' Rarely, a doll will gain some form of sentience, and they are able to control and give simple orders to other dolls around them, and dolls they create. It's done by creating a 'link' from the Master Doll to another, thus giving them a shadow of a life under the puppet masters command. The number one can control is limited to their own mana reserves, how fast they can process and control information, and the complexity of the puppet in question. At its base, she can control 10 non-complex, small puppets at a range of ten yards around her. She can not yet gain information from them. If this connection is severed in any way, the puppets cease functioning. [i][b]Artificial Body (wood)[/b][/i] - A racial skill of puppets that will change depending on the material she is made of. She is not a living thing. A purely artificial construct, Vladlena has no need of sleep, eating, or even breathing. Her body is far tougher than a humans thanks to the material she's made of...however this is not entirely a good thing. She gains the weakness of whatever her body is made of. As she's currently made of Wood, she burns easily. She can't be healed with healing traditional healing spells, but someone skilled with plants/wood magic could potentially alter her body for her. If she does become injured, she better hope she has some way of making another arm for herself. [i][b]Soul Frailty[/b][/i] - Being nothing more than a ghost possessing an artificial body, Vladlena's soul and body is particularly vulnerable to magic. She possesses an innate weakness to magic of all kinds, and a particular severe weakness to any magic that directly affects the soul. They could theoretically simply shove her from her body, rendering her almost utterly helpless, or even dead. Even worse, someone could theoretically force her to serve them should such magic even exist. [i][b]Supernatural Affinity[/b][/i] - By nature, she is merely a ghost possessing a shell. A form of undead. While she [i]looks[/i] human, and for the most part acts it, she isn't. As such, she possesses a natural disposition towards such matters. Being able to see, harm, and interact with ghosts and affording a natural talent in dealing with magic directly relating to spirits. Puppets controlled by her are much the same way....this also unfortunately has a side effect of making most humans innately feel something is 'wrong' with her. While nothing major, most humans feel unease around her regardless of how she behaves, making initial interactions with humans difficult. [/hider] [hider=Tier 2] [i][b]Engineering Student[/b][/i] - Perhaps a skill that came from her previous life. Tells of a low skill with Engineering ability. That is, the construction of machines, structures, buildings, bridges, etc, using scientific means. At the moment, there is no special subclass associated with this skill such as Mechanical or Civil. It simply means one has a good understanding of the basic principles, and things they make simply seem a tiny bit better than those without this skill. [i][b]Basic Sharpening[/b][/i] You have shown aptitude with sharpening rocks, now you things are less likely to break when you sharpen them, but only by a marginal amount. [/hider] [hider=Tier 4] [i][b]Mentor[/b][/i] - Being able to constantly improve oneself is the hallmark of any good machine. That said, a mindless doll can not hope to improve on its own. So it takes knowledge from that who created it. In simple terms, this allows her to 'teach' certain concepts or things to her dolls. Really, it's nothing more than repeating what is shown, and they still are unable to think for themselves or perform innovation. If one, for example, is building a bridge and then run into a wall, they only know how to build a bridge, not remove the wall - so they will continue to try and build the bridge. It offers just a tiny bit of autonomy so she doesn't always have to pay 100% attention to what the dolls are doing. [/hider] [/hider] [/hider]
