As a member of Black Star, why do you have to have your character attack a random character?
The idea is in the flavour of Jekyll/Hyde or Banner/Hulk, most time I intend to play the magician persona as a standard yet sadistic personality, rolling a 1d6, 2-5 it is standard combat I'll attack oponents only, on a 1 I basically get the effects of crown of madness/confusion on me (tho I'll always prefer an opponent who's nearby), I'll do an extra roll every other turn if this happens
If you're not ok with this RP I'll reconsider the character obviously
I feel like this is a bad idea. I’m not sure I’d like you randomly attacking my little Egyptian bud. Not because he can’t take it, but because if you hit him, he’d probably hit you back, a lot. And, if you do hit, I will probably die.
I see most people don't like the idea therefore I'm changing my character's persona.
Varus Oak is a scientist, one whom sometimes likes to try some of his experiments on himself, it's in one of this experiments "Thing" appeared within him, he wasn't sure what that image was, what that being was, but dreams about him kept appearing, when he was given the power to transform this being took form in the real world, a seconds split personality from the same being, who is able to do things Varus wishes he could do himself.
I think we'll start this evening, whether or not we find a fifth for the White Star team (it's not strictly necessary that we have 5 players in each). I'll link to the threads when they are posted later.
Elizabeth Nightspell grew up as a normal human born to middle-class commoners out in the countryside, her mother staying at home to take care of her while her father worked the farmlands. She was an only child and very shy, but she loved to read all sorts of books especially fairytales, wishing that she could be like the rich elegant princesses and queens that get to wear pretty dresses and charm others with their grace. She would save what little money she could earn to spend on books and frilly dresses on rare trips to the far away city that they would take together as a family. She was studying hard to try to see about working for the royal court in the city so that she can earn enough money to support her parents and somewhat live out her childhood dreams at the very least. But her life would change when on her 15th birthday, their small countryside town was invaded by Yuan-ti and she along with her parents and the other surviving townsfolk were taken to a temple. Her father was forced into physical slave labor and her mother ended up being sacrificed to their god due to being too resistant and disobedient while Elizabeth was made to be a simple servant and playtoy. She did as she was told in order to avoid the same fate as her mother and a lot of the other townsfolk, utterly miserable as weeks and months gone by, wishing for someone to come save her. After almost a whole year of servitude and about to completely give up on ever being saved, a group of adventurers rushed into the temple and were destroying Yuan-ti left and right as one of them were freeing her and others from their cells and shackles. She was told to run away and so she did, quickly making her way out of the temple while the Yuan-ti were all too distracted with fighting the adventurers. Elizabeth just kept running and crying for who knows how long, knowing that she is all alone now and wondering how she will be able to survive by herself, not wanting to ever end up in that kind of situation again. She managed to find a fresh water lake, trying to wash herself up and thinking of where she will go after this knowing that she needs to find shelter somewhere. It was then that she saw a black viol nearby and it seemed to be calling out to her, going up to it. She never learned how to play any instruments before this but something in her just couldn't resist and as if she had played it all life, she was able to play an entrancing melody full of magic and transforming into Roselia, The Noir Queen. That was when the talking pseudodragon appeared and asked for her help as Elizabeth eagerly agreed.
Normal Form
Name: Elizabeth Nightspell
Age: 16
Race: Human
Appearance: Long straight black hair to her shoulders with fringe bangs, dark blue eyes, pale skin, thin build with an average chest, simple and modest commoner clothes with tears and dirt all over, red shackle marks on her ankles and wrists, both old and new bruises and wounds all over various parts of her body, a plain brown bag slung over her shoulders carrying a black viol
Background: Haunted One
Alignment: Lawful Good
Personality: Shy, quiet, loves to read, a dreamer, wants to help others, obedient, has a severe fear of snakes/Yuan-ti
Personality: She is everything Elizabeth wishes that she could be; elegant, noble, charming, beautiful, charismatic, regal. But Roselia is also selfish, manipulative, arrogant, greedy, conceited, sadistic, demanding, cares only about herself and keeping herself/Elizabeth safe. She only agreed to do what the pseudodragon wants because Elizabeth did and she doesn't want those artifacts falling into anyone else's hands other than her own.

Haven’t used this account in forever. Still a big fan of crawling claws.
