[quote=@Sailorsadie] WHAT IS THE CHARACTER'S NAME? Sadie Renee Markawitz WHAT IS A STRANGER'S FIRST IMPRESSION UPON MEETING THEM? That she's a hippie, tree loving pothead covered in tattoos. WHAT IS THEIR PROFESSION AND HOW DO THEY FEEL ABOUT IT? Hospice nurse. Something that she prides herself in doing, helping those sick or aged progress to the ends of the life with grace and dignity. HOW HAS BEING A HOWL AFFECTED THEIR LIFE? She never had an issue with being who she was until she became a nurse. Now, it has just made her become even more empathetic with her patients and their families. WHY ARE THEY IN OAKEN CITY? Born and raised. DO THEY HAVE A HOWL ABILITY? WHAT IS IT? Sadie can hear the Rue. More so when around the dead or nearly dying. [/quote] Sadie sounds wonderful! Especially for this particular mission! Curious about her tattoos and whether they could have some meanings. 🤔 Also, thanks for the bit of worldbuilding: Oaken now has a pot culture and a great healthcare/hospice system. Hearing Rue gives me the idea of distinguishing types of Rue, especially those surrounding the idea of death. There's something here to be played with! Over on the OOC you can throw your CS directly into the Characters tab. [quote=@Dragonfly 9] [b]WHAT IS THE CHARACTER'S NAME?[/b] Rachel Finn [b]WHAT IS A STRANGER'S FIRST IMPRESSION UPON MEETING THEM?[/b] A brash and energetic girl who [i]loves[/i] to talk about all the things she can do, with little prompting. [b]WHAT IS THEIR PROFESSION AND HOW DO THEY FEEL ABOUT IT?[/b] Throws newspapers at houses as a part-time job, but also dreams of being a full-time adventurer, and doesn't understand why her mother won't allow her to, who describes her dream of being an adventurer as "a worrisome position that could easily get her(Rachel) lost, injured, or killed". [b]HOW HAS BEING A HOWL AFFECTED THEIR LIFE? [/b] Ever since Rachel's figured out she has a Howl Ability, it's only strengthened her resolve to be a cool adventurer and explore cool, ancient ruins, with her new Ability thinking that she's almost invincible and can solely take on the world. [b]WHY ARE THEY IN OAKEN CITY?[/b] Born and raised. Was fascinated by the many stories her dad told her when she was young, and now wants to be a cool adventurer because of them, as well as finding her now absent dad, who disappeared from Oaken City many years ago. [b]DO THEY HAVE A HOWL ABILITY? WHAT IS IT?[/b] Yes; she can smell Rue, and also can phase through walls(and maybe other things/objects, too, if that's okay.). [/quote] Rachel sounds like so much fun, and absolutely the life of the group! Thanks for the worldbuilding detail: those mountains just outside the valley are full of mysterious ruins. 👻 Also, plot: missing disappeared dad! Smelling Rue is really interesting and gives me some ideas about different types of Rue: that perhaps Sadie can hear certain ones while Rachel can smell others. It'll be fun to identify the specific smells and how strong they are. Phasing through real-life walls and objects is unfortunately not allowed since it's interacting with reality, but you could hold that thought for later on. It might be possible we'll interact more with the Rue's dimension and objects that exist there, so some other similar ability could manifest during the adventure. Everything else is cool to throw directly on the character tab in the OOC. 💚
