House Arrest: A Witch and Genie's Story

Characters who are Characters

Leo

Tenebris Anima
Leo Fortis,
but you can just call me Leo, sweet morsel.

Being: Familiar, Spirit - Lion
Age: Presumably ancient, though he acts somewhat immature at times
Gender: ?? (Looks male)
Appearance:
Leo's casual, every day form is that of a rather large golden-furred house cat with a lion's tail and a white mane of fur that frames his face and runs along his back in the way that lion's would. His eyes vary from light green to white depending on his mood - green for relaxed or happy, white for alert or angry. He weighs a substantial amount in this form, even though he doesn't look it, and when picking him up people tend to be shocked. He stands around knee height on women who are of average height.

True (Anima) Form

In his Anima form, Leo grows to a significant size and sprouts wings. (The top of his head reaches 6 feet (183cm), and his wingspan is large enough to carry him in flight). He weighs in around 800 pounds (363kg). In this form, he is big enough to carry his Master and another one, preferably a female (unless forced to undertake carrying another one of those "males" around).

Powers:

• Regular Form: Speech, basic magic abilities such as:
• minor telekinesis (example: floating a small object)
• minor manipulation of fire (example: lighting a candle)
• minor manipulation of air (example: blowing out a candle)
• detect magic (example: allows him to detect if magical creatures may be nearby (example: an average-sized gymnasium)

• Anima Form: Speech, major magic abilities such as:
• major telekinesis (example: floating a car)
• major manipulation of fire (example: he becomes a dragon! lololol xD naw, like a fireball)
• major manipulation of air (example: he uses his wings to manipulate gusts of wind that can knock a person/being over if unprepared)
• major detect magic (example: able to detect magical spells cast within a large area (a two block radius) and able to detect if magical creatures are nearby (a block radius)
• Additonal Information: His Anima Form is not something to be used frequently, and it takes a heavy toll on Leo unless his Master provides him with supplemental magical energy to retain the form. After used, Leo must go into a resting period of little to no magic use, as well as being stuck in his regular form.

Bio: Leo's contract to his newest Master leaves him unable to discuss his past Masters and Mistresses, but one thing is known for certain: Leo does not like male witches. When he was released from the magical grimoire he was imprisoned in, he wasn't exactly happy to have Aaron as his new Master. It's taken time for Leo to warm up to him, but now Leo has staked a claim on the young witchling (or Caster as Aaron insists).

Personality: Leo is usually laid back, in a dignified and proud sort of way, but a competitive streak runs deep within him. He is flirtatious with the fairer gender, but highly dislikes men – that is, except for Aaron, who Leo shares an interesting familiar–master relationship with. Leo likes to play pranks on Aaron, and generally get in the way of the young witchling. However, if Aaron were to get into real danger, Leo would step in to protect his Master with a ferocity. He adores eating "clouds" of all things, and has taken to eating cotton candy as a substitute, and makes sure Aaron knows that he needs a steady supply of the fluffy food.

Emily Rose Cain

Emily Rose Cain

Being: Human – Witch
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Emily is extremely well kept and proper – every hair laid perfectly in it's place, no wrinkles in her pristine clothing, a shine on her leather loafers, and a straight posture wherever she goes. She always has a polite smile and greeting at the ready, but somehow they feel fake. Her well-maintained bob is dark brown with faint golden highlights, and her eyes are stormy grey adorned by thick eyelashes. Her skin is a fair alabaster tone that has little to no blemishing, save for a small birthmark on her neck under her right ear in the vague shape of a star. To top it all off, her eyebrows are manicured to the tee – essentially the picture of perfectionism.

Powers:
To be decided.

Bio: With high expectations from her family, Emily has always been at the top of her class, and always been picked for class president. With no time to play, Emily made no friends and has spent most of her life living in text books, day in and day out, robotically. That was, until she met Edward and began to awaken to her Witch powers. Now everything is so much more fun!

Personality: Gripped by the severe complex that has been instilled into her by her family, she strives for perfection in literally everything she does. This pressure has forced her into a shell of herself, and has only recently found an outlet for all of her anxiety, depression, frustration, and jealousy.

While using her magic, Emily has never felt more free, and she has so much fun that she is prone to uncontrollable laughter, fits of twitching, and acts of cruelty beyond her normal scope – and has a hard time remembering what is right and wrong.

Rosalie la Forte

Rosalie la Forte

Being: ?? (presumably a Witch)
Age: ?? (appears late twenties to early thirites)
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Eccentric is the best way to describe Rosalie's appearance. She wears the largest floppy hats she can find, typically bedazzled with pearls and feathers. Her dresses are always cinched at the waist and poof out while they flow to the ground. She accentuates her outfits with pearl necklaces and many different kinds of rings studded with emeralds, sapphires, amethysts, and rubies. Her silky dark blonde hair reaches the backs of her thighs, though she normally keeps it in a long french braid and piled on the back of her head, with a healthy dose of pearls beaded throughout. Her eyes are light violet with flecks of yellow, complimented by thick mascara and smoky eyeshadow.

Her witching attire

When Rosalie begins her magical conquests, she always starts everything off by changing into her witching attire as if by magical transformation. It comes complete with star and tarot themed accessories, and the biggest, floppiest pointy witch's hat she could find. She grows a reptilian-like tail and some scales appear on her cheeks and forehead.

Powers:
To be revealed throughout RP.

What is known so far...
Rosalie appears to be capable of manipulating the emotions and memories of regular humans and newbie witches.

Bio:

Rosalie appeared one day in Neworth, a mysterious and outlandish lady who claimed to own a large plot of land that the locals thought was haunted and had left alone for many years since the last owners mysteriously vanished. On this land is an incredibly large mansion, several guest houses, an observatory, an aviary, a green house and a large swimming area, several mausoleums – and none of it is being used, nor has Rosalie stepped on to the property since her arrival. Instead, she has been funding the University, the only stipulation being that she would be allowed to run a club at the University in hopes that some one, or several some ones, would help her with her problem.

Her club room is settled on a remote portion of the campus in a large greenhouse, run by Rosalie and some meager volunteers, who all quit soon after joining claiming weird things happen there. Come visit the Lotus Garden, and perhaps you will find out what Rosalie is searching for.

Personality:

She happy is quirky, oddly mysterious, usually leaning towards niceties than rudeness. She can be prone to quick and violent outbursts of anger if people push her the wrong way. Many gentlemen, and gentlewomen, have found themselves attracted to her and tried to woo her, only to find themselves maneuvered out of her way without knowing whether they were coming or going. Though infuriating in her own way, many people find it is hard to be mad at her for long, though they don't fully understand why.

Behind all of her magical tomfoolery and manipulation of emotions, she is remarkably the same as she usually is, though perhaps a tad bit more elusive. One thing is for certain, Rosalie wants what she wants, and she will not take no for an answer.

Oh yeah, tea time is a rule for her. No exceptions.

Kalen

Kalen

Being: Will o Wisp
Age: ?? (appears youthful)
Gender: Male
Appearance:
A 1'1'' tall ball of hunky masculinity... sort of. He has feminine hints to his appearance, but his deep masculine voice is incredibly offsetting for most people who are just meeting him. He garbs himself in an emerald green silk tunic with golden embroidery, and black silk pants. At his waist is a pointy rapier.

His appearance

When he disperses into wisp-form, he becomes green and white shimmering light.

Powers:
To be revealed throughout RP.

What is known so far...
He can disperse and coalesce at will into, and out of, light.

Bio:
Kalen is a will-o-wisp who obeys Rosalie's commands. (more to be revealed throughout RP)

Personality:
An obedient and immaculate servant, with a penchant for being overly-cautious. He seems to have a stutter when he becomes overwhelmed or excited.

Spells and Cantrips

Spells

• First Level Druid Spells

Goodberry
1st-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (a sprig of mistletoe)
Duration: Instantaneous
Up to ten berries appear in your hand and are infused with magic for the duration. A creature can use its action to eat one berry. Eating a berry restores 1 hit point, and the berry provides enough nourishment to sustain a creature for one day. The berries lose their potency if they have not been consumed within 24 hours of the casting of this spell.

Cure Wounds
1st-level evocation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S
Duration: Instantaneous
A creature you touch regains a number of hit points equal to 1d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the healing increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 1st.

Cantrips

Druidcraft
Transmutation cantrip
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: Instantaneous
Whispering to the spirits of nature, you create one of the following effects within range:

• You create a tiny, harm less sensory effect that predicts what the weather will be at your location for the next 24 hours. The effect might manifest as a golden orb for clear skies, a cloud for rain, falling snowflakes for snow, and so on. This effect persists for 1 round.
• You instantly make a flower blossom, a seed pod open, or a leaf bud bloom.
• You create an instantaneous, harm less sensory effect, such as falling leaves, a puff of wind, the sound of a small animal, or the faint odor of skunk. The effect must fit in a 5-foot cube.
• You instantly light or snuff out a candle, a torch, or a small campfire.

Shillelagh
Transmutation cantrip
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (mistletoe, a sham rock leaf, and a club or quarterstaff)
Duration: 1 minute
The wood of a club or quarterstaff you are holding is imbued with nature’s power. For the duration, you can use your spellcasting ability instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of melee attacks using that weapon, and the weapon's damage die becomes a d8. The weapon also becomes magical, if it isn’t already. The spell ends if you cast it again or if you let go of the weapon.

Racial Cantrip:

Minor Illusion
Illusion cantrip
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: S, M (a bit of fleece)
Duration: 1 minute
You create a sound or an image of an object within range that lasts for the duration. The illusion also ends if you dismiss it as an action or cast this spell again. If you create a sound, its volume can range from a whisper to a scream . It can be your voice, someone else’s voice, a lion’s roar, a beating of drums, or any other sound you choose. The sound continues unabated throughout the duration, or you can make discrete sounds at different times before the spell ends. If you create an image of an object—such as a chair, muddy footprints, or a small chest—it must be no larger than a 5-foot cube. The image can’t create sound, light, smell, or any other sensory effect. Physical interaction with the image reveals it to be an illusion, because things can pass through it. If a creature uses its action to examine the sound or image, the creature can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the illusion becomes faint to the creature.

Hermit Background

Hermit
Skill Proficiencies: Medicine, Religion
Tool Proficiencies: Herbalism kit
Languages: One of your choice (Elvish)
Equipment: A scroll case stuffed full of notes from your studies or prayers, a winter blanket, a set of common clothes, an herbalism kit

Feature: Discovery
The quiet seclusion of your extended hermitage gave you access to a unique and powerful discovery. The exact nature of this revelation depends on the nature of your seclusion. It might be a great truth about the cosmos, the deities, the powerful beings of the outer planes, or the forces of nature. It could be a site that no one else has ever seen. You might have uncovered a fact that has long been forgotten, or unearthed some relic of the past that could rewrite history. It might be information that would be damaging to the people who consigned you to exile, and hence the reason for your return to society. Work with your DM to determine the details of your discovery and its impact on the campaign.

My Life of Seclusion roll

• 7 I was the caretaker of an ancient ruin or relic.

I went to live in an old place of my Goddie, so I could get the moss and slimy gunk off the place for a couple of years. Why? I'unno, my Goddie told me to in a vision.

My Personality Trait roll

• 5 I am oblivious to etiquette and social expectations.

I don't understand why people think it's weird to trim my toe nails at the dinner table, or why they give me funny looks when I don't give the people in the fancy looking clothing a bow or curtsy. They're just people too, like Yuuka!

My Ideal roll

• 6 Self-Knowledge. If you know yourself, there’s nothing left to know. (Alignment: Any)

Yuuka thinks if you truly know yourself, you'll be able to live the rest of your days out hunkydoory! But I think my Goddie tells me that I have a long way to go.

My Bond roll

• 3 I’m still seeking the enlightenment I pursued in my seclusion, and it still eludes me.

When I had the vision from my Goddie, I think there was more to do, but Yuuka did everything she could! I will figure out what my Goddie wants one day.

My Flaw roll

• 5 I’d risk too much to uncover a lost bit of knowledge.

Fine, sometimes Yuuka gets alittle carried away, but there's so much to know and see! I don't think it's a bad thing, no matter what the others tell me.

Additional Information:

Yuuka's Pet: Because of her racial Speak with Small Beasts, Yuuka has long since befriended a tiny bat that she has named Laylee. Laylee typically clings to Yuuka's shoulder and eats berries and other food that Yuuka provides.

• major detect magic (example: able to detect magical spells cast within a large area (a two block radius) and able to detect if magical creatures are nearby (a block radius)
• Additonal Information: His Anima Form is highly reliant on his Mistress's magical prowess, and saps a portion of her energy upon use, perhaps making her somewhat sleepy if she had been using magic beforehand.

Bio: Leo's contract to his newest Mistress leaves him unable to discuss his past, but he was summoned from a magical grimoire. Upon seeing the Witch, he knew she had great magical potential within her and became her familiar.
Personality: Leo is usually laid back, in a dignified and proud sort of way, but a competitive streak runs deep within him. He is flirtatious with the fairer gender, but highly dislikes men. He adores eating "clouds" of all things, and has taken to eating cotton candy as a substitute.

DnD a Day.

I'm quite literally the most indecisive person when picking spells lol. XD I promise I'll get my CS posted for approval in the next couple... hours >.>

DnD a Day.

Ah yeah, I'm free. I'm just looking things over for my character. I finally decided I'm going to be a druid. x.x

DnD a Day.

I'm going to adhere to the races you selected before. I'd never played one (a tiefling), so I was curious about rping one out. But I've also never officially played a gnome or elf before, so I may go in that direction instead.

DnD a Day.

Naw, I just wanted to make sure before I chose. I'm okay with sticking to your racial choices, I just needed to know before I go and pick like... Tiefling

DnD a Day.

Alright, just so we're absolutely clear (since there has been some flip-flop decision making while trying to get everything settled), we're sticking to the races you wanted in the past, or anything within the 5th Edition Player's Handbook is fine?
