Second character! [hr] [hider=Appearance:][img]https://i.imgur.com/OIzH0It.png[/img] [i]Height:[/i] 4'10" / 147cm (Does not include horns) [i]Weight:[/i] It's a secret~ [i]B/W/H:[/i] B37"(93cm)-22"(57cm)-35"(90cm) [/hider] [b]Name:[/b] Gwendolyn [b]Race:[/b] Baphomet [i](Baphomet Family progenitor)[/i] [b]Magic/Abilities/Equipment:[/b] [b]Unimaginable Power:[/b] Baphomets are, by nature, one of the foremost powerhouses among all of monster-kind. Their physical strength, endurance, vitality, stamina and speed, coupled with their superior intellect, vast amounts of magic energy and natural skill, aptitude and proficiency at magic makes them an undeniably formidable and tremendous force to be reckoned with! Unfortunately for Gwen, she's still rather yuong for a baphomet, and hasn't really finished [i]developing[/i] (even if certain parts of her would suggest otherwise) just yet. Though not fully 'grown up', she's still a considerably strong entity and shouldn't be underestimated. [b]Able Arcanist:[/b] Gwen, like all baphomet, have large reserves of mana and a natural talent for casting magic. She can use a wide array of spells from different schools and elements, and cast rather powerful versions of each, giving her a wide and varied arsenal of tools. Her major downfall however is that she's not yet fully mastered the art of efficiently weaving her mana into said spells, meaning she expends and uses a larger amount of it than she should need, wihch in turn means that despite having more mana than others, she's also casting spells at a higher 'cost' than needed. That said, Gwen's also attuned to both detecting, analyzing and identifying magic, both in items, wards, ed/buffs or in/on people or creatures. [b]Scythe Sweeper:[/b] As traditional for most baphomet, Gwen has trained to use her scythe as the primary weapon for any melee-combat. Made from a demon realm metal, the scythe doesn't actually inflict any wounds regardless of where it hits or if it cuts straight through an opponent, but rather drains their stamina and their mana, eventually knocking them out if struck enough times or by a particularly 'lethal' attack. Gwen is capable enough to use the scythe both to attack and defend herself, as well as to vault over, trip or bludgeon opponents. Sadly, due to her... [i]Top-heavy[/i] physique... Gwen can sometimes become unballanced and can't perform attacks in all directions equally... She sometimes also tends to fall over... [b]Pact Provider:[/b] Although young, Gwen knows how to perform pact-magic, which is essentially the act of someone asking for something from her, and she giving it in return for their servitude and obedience. Most often, this is either something like power, eternal youth, beauty, riches or other human fancies, but it can also be things like protection, impeccable health or generally most anything. In order to accomplish this, Gwen uses some of her own power to make the pact's desired result manifest, which weakens her for a time, but in return, she gains the allegiance (and passive siponing of magic) from her 'customer'. The effect of making such a deal however is irreversible, and the recipient cannot go against the agreement due to powerful geas and binding magics. Please read the fine print before accepting any deals. [b]Personality:[/b] Gwendolyn is a spunky young baphomet who has a flair for the dramatic and grandiose. She enjoys making grand entrances, delivering catchy lines or speeches, striking up dramatic or imposing poses and is generally vivacious and spirited. She's a self-confident young lady with a sense of adventure and discovery that could be considered child-like, but it could also be the result of this being her first time really out and about all on her own. She has a sense of humor and can laugh at jokes or silliness, though she isn't much for being the target of teasing or ridicule. Doing such things will make her puff her cheeks, storm off with a 'harumph' or, in some cases if you go too far (according to her), she may even inflict violence upon the offender. She also isn't fond of people pointing out her short-comings or mistakes, of which there are no shortages of since she's both inexperienced, a bit gullible and naive as well as a bit of an airheaded goof at times. Though she tries to pass herself off as a clever, conniving and cunning master of the webs, who is always three steps ahead and who lays out careful plans and devious traps... She's actually not all that forward-thinking. Its usually just her pretending to know or understand what's going on and claiming that any good outcomes are a result of her plotting and scheming. That said, Gwen isn't a [i]complete[/i] bimbo and is actually fairly well-read and clever, she just hasn't fully grasped how, where or when to apply her intelligence just yet. Gwen can act overbearing, arrogant and even snarky at times, but she's actually a really kind person who cres about others. She has a sense of right and wrong (even if they're not as clear-cut as the morals of humans) and she dislikes pointless bloodshed and death. The young baphomet is also surprisingly patient and tolerant, and accepting of all other species and races - which makes sense, since there are all types in The Sabbath's ranks. Her hobbies include spellcrafting, scythe practice, reading books and exploring. She likes cute things, sweet things and pretty things. Gwen dislikes narrowmindedness, unnecessary violence and rude people, but she outright hates very few things, and even the things she dislikes she can be patient with. Gwen is also very weak to praise or compliments, and will demand more of it whenever she receives some... Which bloats her ego... Which makes her surprisingly simple to manipulate and/or make her do things. She'll laugh or giggle cutely whenever someone acknowledges her deeds, advise or appearance, while rubbing the back of her head with a big smile on her face. It's quite cute actually. That said, she absolutely detests frogs, to the point of having an outright phobia for them. If she sees a frog, she'll go the other way. If a frog approaches, she'll scream and run the other way. If you throw a frog onto her, she'll shriek and either faint or self-combust. Just... Just don't throw frogs at her... Please? She also seems to have a fear of paddles and oars, for some reason... [b]Background:[/b] Gwendolyn is a baphomet who hails from the demon realm of Magvar. She's daughter of an incubi and another baphomet, both of whom belonged The Sabbath-cult, which is the dominant religion in Magvar. She received training, education and had a proper and rather problem-free upbringing. She never needed or wanted for anything and had parents who were loving and supportive, albeit also demanding and severe at times... Getting bad grades or failing tests often resulted in a paddlin while on papa's lap... Time passed and she grew, trained and excelled. Eventually though, a request from a certain eastern dragon reached the nation. A great summit was held where it was discussed and debated what should be done and how the request should be handled. During this meeting, the eager young Gwen selflessly offered to go and act as the representative of Magvar. There were a bit of murmurs and hushed whispers, but after a fairly short period of time, Gwen eithr managed to convince the others, or was just getting annoying enough to make the nay-sayers want to get things over and done with, the young baphomet was finally officially appointed to be the one who would go and be their contribution to the Lady Kyouko's taskforce. Gwendolyn was very excited and set off the very next day! ... Which then forced her to wait at the docks because the ship she was meant to take wasn't going to arrive for another few days or so... But her enthusiasm was appreciated! Now though, after some weeks of sailing and camping, she finally arrived on the ryu's island, and is staunchly prepared to lead the Taskforce to victory! [i][sub][color=violet]"Hmhm, be greeted, my good fellows! I, Gwendolyn have arrived! Fear not, our foes will quake in their boots and tremble at the sight of my awful and unrivaled power! Hah, no need for applause, 'tis only natural I do this. Now come, let's be off![/color][/sub][/i]
