Character Information Full Name: Devadatta Race: Slizzar Age: 39 Sex: Agender Gender: Agender Sexuality: Asexual Affinity: Phantom Archon Core Concept Devadatta is a relatively young Slizzar who became a Phantom at a young age as part of their training. As a devout follower of Madhyaratri, they believe that choice is a gift granted but that being able to change, manipulate, or even take that gift away is a privilege granted to Madhyaratri's creation. Friend, foe, it matters little, to touch the weave of fate and to bend the strands is the purpose granted to all who follow Madhyaratri. Proficiency Information Attack Faith/Defense Magic Strength - 0 Constitution - 0 Intelligence - 0 Shapeshift (Slizzar) Mind Control (Slizzar) Safeguard (Dragon Magic) Wardrobe (Dragon Magic) Wisdom - 3 Technique Parry Chem Revive Chem Mend Dexterity - 0 Faith - 6 Hex Plot Hex Aura Hex Madness Hex Parasite Hex Bloodlet Hex Apocalypse Magic - 5 Magic Smog Magic Distort Magic Isolate Appearance Information While rarely seen, Devadatta’s birth shape is vaguely feminine but tall, toned and athletic, with various shaded lilac scale accents. Their ‘hair’ is similarly colored to their marking scales and runs down past their shoulders in length. Plot Hooks A Lost Image - Devadatta seems to default on a shift named Citra, a smaller Kyat Allar. For unknown reasons they always seem very defensive and protective of this particular shift, going out of their way to keep it preserved as best they can, as if changing it too much would ruin something. If one were to notice small changes in Citra, it could be an opportunity to broach the topic, or pick at the seams. Seeker - Devadatta has always been a follower of Madhyaratri, also known as Nox. While they are happy to 'pray' to Madhyaratri by subtly altering the lives of any they come to know, a part of them wishes to know more of Nox, more of their secrets and the twisted web of lies they left behind in this world. In their search for knowledge, they often stumble upon strange and ancient secrets about other parts of the world, and can be a font of information for those looking. Desolation - Devadatta is no stranger to death. Losing much in the Chrysant War, and so much more beyond, but there seem to be some things that scare the Slizzar more than hurt. They guard their name and hide, out of fear, and always seem on edge near their own kind most of all. These could be dangerous secrets to pry into. They Will Find You. They Will Hate You - Beyond whatever it is they seem to fear, Devadatta doggedly hides their identity from those close to them. Afraid of the consequences of truth, they keep lying to those who they would even call good friends and would never willingly reveal their true nature without good reason. Those seeking to push past the paranoia should look for that reason.
Hi there, this is looking great. There's only one thing to go over. @HoaxHoodwink Please simplify your Life Story to 1-3 sentences per bullet point if you can. A lot of these details can be moved into an expanded version of the Life Story if you choose. Tag me once you've made the appropriate edits, thanks.
@microwavemmm Thanks for the review! I suppose I did get a little carried away on that one section. I managed to cut it down by at least half, is this good enough?
@microwavemmm Changed a lot of terminology and minor details to fit in line with the recent Allar changes.
@microwavemmm Changed proficiencies after realizing how difficult it would be portraying any sort of instrument stuff IC, and after some advice from others, decided to fill out the rest of the points (Mostly languages added) since the system will be changed soon™ anyway. Exact proficiency changes- Removed Instrument Added Linguistics (Ibeth/Sofaal) Added 5 Points to Medical Training (Light Mend 2 and requirement to use Curing Knowledge I had, whoops.) Added Alchemy: Common
@microwavemmm Got everything proficiency based updated along with a couple minor changes in wording in Religion/Life Story.
@microwavemmm Hi, sorry. I realized that you needed Vandalism to sabotage stuff when not in a foreign country, should that ever come up, so I decided to do a minor change to my proficiencies and fixed a couple typos. Obstructive Alchemy removed, Vandalism added, typo cleaning.
@Yurs Changes to proficiencies, the snake is no longer made of spun sugar. Expect other changes to follow whenever they get released I guess.
Even more changes, a lot of retooling, some editing of references to subspecies that no longer exist and the snake knows magic now. Also set to needing a reviewer because I don't know if Yurs is active.
The changes continue to roll in! Healing Alchemy -> Medical Pack Common Alchemy -> Barricade Pack Redundant Quickcover Ranged -> Knocking Shot Added related specials.
Oh boy. Removed 2 Strength (I was going to be Disarmed at 3, may as well be Disarmed at 1.) Renamed Blades to Duelist. Added 2 Dexterity. Renamed Backup and Knocking to Escape and Blunt-Tip respectively. Added Evasion and Scoundrel. Changed Casting to Mimicry due to more focus on Ranged. Ability list appropriately updated.
@microwavemmm This one is actually rather substantial. The snake is now an Archon. Moved 1 Str to Wis - Added Dimenthist Wisdom. Added Archon abilities (Silver Weaver) Quite a lot of overdue changes in practically every part of the app to fit with the Dragon Worship/Slizzar changes over the last month. Lifestory was dusted and mentions of being trained and raised by Silver Weavers added, as well as becoming one.
Decided to move some points around. Removed Escape Pack/Backup Shot. Removed Ancient Speech. Added State Dignitary and Leadership packs.
@Scribbe Many changes- All in line with the recent Slizzar update. Only other change not directly related to the Slizzar changes was Line-Up Pack -> Survivalist Pack. Edit - Added the Silver Weaver change also.
