Important Character Question: Does your character know what or has ever had a chili dog?

You know, the Discord Chat has been super helpful in building Griffin's character. Who knew bouncing questions back and forth would be helpful?

How difficult would it be for a character to have a bag of holding, if it's even possible at all? I need to know for backstory reasons. Also would it be possible to make spell potions? Things that, when you imbibe them, do things like increase your strength, make you tougher, or allow you to breath fire? Or are they only able to be healing things?

Would you look at that big, beautiful boy!

Griffin

"W-what do you mean you can see me?"

Taken Name: Griffin
Gender: Male
Age: somewhere in his early twenties, technically around his mid forties.
Species: Eaten

Appearance: Griffin is just a guy. He's a little on the shorter side, standing at 5'9, and is generally unassuming. He's built like a fighter under those wraps but prefers to not bring attention to it. His wardrobe is a collection of simple tees, well worn jeans, and scuffed up converse.He has two omnipresent items of clothing, cloth bandages and a pair of thick, pitch black sunglasses. The cloth bandages he wraps himself with are incredibly tough but very soft and easy on the skin, a gift from his mother in all but name Beatrice and the glasses were a gift from a childhood friend. If he feels like getting fancy he'll put on a colorful hawaiian button up.

Brief Personality: Griffin is quite possibly the most well adjusted Eaten ever documented. He may take in an excess of marijuana and similar products but compared to the things other Eaten have done to fill the void left by the Curse he's a saint. Before anything Griffin is a genuinely kind man, always gentle with others and patient to a fault. He likes to bring out the light in others, the sight of someone smiling and laughing being one of the greatest things he can give to people. When under the influence he's a little loopy, seemingly moving like he's made out of noodles and depending on what he's had he'll laugh like a hyena or giggle quietly. However he becomes anxious when put in new situations and very uncomfortable when people start asking about what he is, though he tends to bounce back fairly easily. He identifies as Bisexual but isn't particularly picky on what parts a partner does or doesn't have nor what they decide to identify as, it's all about having a good time. He's great with kids.

Familiar: A large, almost purple raven named Poe. She's a total sweetheart.

Ashley Jens:
"Pretty friendly guy for a Lycan, would love to get closer to that food of his though."

Ethra:
"Biggest owl I've ever seen, that's for damn sure. Can't complain though, she seems content to leave and let be so... whatever."

Haka-Mesuka:
"She's about as Lycan as you can get, needs to cool her breaks every once and awhile."

Katarina Elza:
"A real spitfire that one, but she's the only one here who can drink me under the table so she's good in my book."

Raven Magnus:
"He's a whole mess of trouble... I like trouble."

Y-you can see me?

Taken Name: Griffin
Gender: Male
Age: somewhere in his early twenties, technically around his mid forties.
Species: Eaten

Appearance: A scrapper through and through, Griffin has a body that is well developed to fighting, running, and other forms of mischief. He is a little on the smaller side, being 5'9, and while he doesn't particularly care it would be a mistake to repeatedly bring it up. Griffin wraps himself in bandages that cover much of his body, namely the head, torso, and extremities. On top of that he wears anything he can scrounge from a thrift store, usually t-shirts, flannels, tough jeans, and steel toed kickers. However he has also made some rather flamboyant purchases like a sleeveless denim vest pockmarked with various buttons, leather biker chaps, and a purple "Pimp hat" he stole from an actual pimp. The only omnipresent object in his wardrobe is a pair of thick, heavily tinted sunglasses.

Brief Personality: Griffin is a 1980 metalhead that never really left that decade. He's rough and rowdy, always looking for something to keep his heart pounding and the adrenaline pumping. Thinking ahead is nearly anathema to him and impulse control is foreign concept, instead always living in the moment and leaving tomorrow's hangover to tomorrow's Griffin. However this isn't to say he's all tequila and blow, catch him on a slow day and you'll find the enthusiastic potion brewer who is always eager to talk shop or silent motorcyclist who's always got an open seat for someone who needs it. Yet deeper still you'll find the real Griffin, a desperate man who tries in vain to fill a void that can't be patched over. Admittedly has a substance abuse problem, albeit a fairly mundane one compared to what he could be filling himself with.

Familiar: A large, almost purple raven named Poe. She's a total sweetheart.

The Eaten themselves only have enough magic in them to create potions and maybe cast a couple low level spells. Maybe since Energy Witches have spirit stuff and the curse is partly spiritual in nature they can temporarily banish the invisibility. I imagine that the Eaten's magic is basically like the coals after a fire, the heat is still kinda there but it would take some work to "light it up" so to speak. If an Eaten dedicated themselves to developing their magic they might be able to get the majority of it back, but it would take a couple decades at least. Anyway I'll get a CS up here sometime soonish. Might have to steal some of these CS formats, they are pretty good.

Here is my idea.

My idea for the Invisible People is more like a very powerful curse that is cast by either extremely powerful witches, demons, and things that lurk on the edge of reality. The whole entire thing boils down to the victim being stripped of pretty much everything they are and cease to exist. Obviously this is incredibly fatal to pretty much everyone, everyone except for witches who substitute most of their magic to cling to life. This leaves them with a body that cannot be seen, complete memory loss, and everyone else losing their memories of the victim as well. The victims are called "The Eaten" as the only thing they have left are scraps of magic that survived the ordeal.

The only "good" thing about being a member of the Eaten is that, well... you're permanently invisible and you live a long time. The exact numbers aren't known because there are no known records of an Eaten dying of old age, with most "Lying Down" and fading into the ether sometime in their lifetimes. The oldest Eaten on record was 79 before Lying Down. There are about several dozen Eaten in the world at any given time as the power needed to cast the curse is immense, the knowledge on how to cast the spell is sparse, and it always brings attention to the caster.

Dealing with their condition is up to the individual Eaten, but many take to applying vast amounts of makeup or wrapping themselves in bandages to give themselves the illusion of existing.

---

In all honesty I just wanted to play a punk Invisible Man who goes out on the down doing mischief and occasional vigilantism along with existential dread.

EDIT: So I just got my killer idea, the reason why you can't see The Eaten is because if you did you'd be able to match faces with memories and that would be counterproductive to the curse. So it's not like they are actually invisible, it's just that the curse doesn't let anyone see them.

So would a witch with fire magic could do other facets of that, like light and stuff, or are they stuck with only fire and heat?
