Bartholomew: *To Malcer* I believe Undead counts among them, right?
*To Daniel* Why go for a Constitutional Monarchy when we can be the Dictators in a Dictatorship!

Ciel: *sighs*

I was thinking that Bartholomew would be chased away from the party and he would come back at parts during the narrative to cause problems for the party. I created him to be the Arch-Nemesis for Ciel as part of her character growth. ^^"

Ah. Daniel would probably be planning to backstab him in a literal manner.

Daniel: "So... Do you think this world has an Empire we can take over and turn into a Constitutional Monarchy?"


Malcer: "Aiming a little high, are we? I don't see any compelling reason to make such waves."

Bartholomew: *To Malcer* I believe Undead counts among them, right?
*To Daniel* Why go for a Constitutional Monarchy when we can be the Dictators in a Dictatorship!

Ciel: *sighs*


Malcer: "Rulership sounds like a chore... And Necromancer I may be, but I'm no megalomaniac. Let tyrants be tyrants. As long as it's not our problem, I don't see a reason to overthrow them. Why should we risk our lives for a crown of thorns? Better to fly under the radar and live fruitful, unobtrusive lives. This is a second chance, after all. We shouldn't be so quick to throw it away."

Unfortunately, that is a Bartholomew move, so he'd probably see that coming.

Ciel: "...If we were given a second life here, then it was for a reason, right...? What if we were brought here for a specific purpose? And besides..."

*raises lamp and gestures to it*

"He's probably going to give me some kind of request, sooner or later..."

Malcer: "If we were brought here for a reason, then we find that reason and work to accomplish it alone. If there is a price for our power, we pay it and be done with it... But there's no reason to go out of our way to solve every injustice in the world. Why increase our burden needlessly? Why court conflict unprovoked? If there is a task before us, then no other concern matters. Rather than risk our lives, should we not quietly improve and prepare? Certainly, there's something to be said for experience, but nothing says we cannot acquire that experience carefully, rather than inviting disaster by reaching above our station."

His dark pits for eyes stare at the lamp in what might have been a glare if he had flesh.

"And you would be served well in discovering the exact terms of this 'pact' of yours... assuming they are not clear already. Understand fully what may be expected of you, what you are obligated to provide and what you are entitled to recieve in return."

@Lewascan2 I should mention that as a point of contrast, the djinni does actually care about the warlock’s well being, unlike a certain Changeling Bard.

Heh, true as that may be, best count on Malcer to constantly be the voice of caution in any situation, just on principle. There's a reason his WIS is higher than his CHA. He's basically made to be the voice of reason and restraint from more "enthusiastic" elements in the party. And he just inherently sees power that isn't entirely one's own as inferior. So, he generally looks down on the idea of making deals for power, whether it be Warlock, Cleric or otherwise.

Yep, and Daniel would probably be arrogant enough to try and sweet-talk him.

It's kind of funny. I was also thinking Ciel would be a voice of caution as well, due to having trust issues at the start. But I can see her growing more enthusiastic when she gains more confidence.

Also...I wonder Malcer's reaction would be when he learns that Genie Warlocks will be able to cast "Wish" as their most powerful spell.

Malcer's fear of death is the real MVP here. Filter basically everything he might do through that fear, and you see his mind working through cost-benefits to determine whether he thinks it's worth it. Combine this with fear of death being his most driving force, to accomplish the countering of that fear, he is subsequently power-hungry, and he understands wholly that as a wizard, prep time is his ally. Therefore, he has no interest in picking fights, when he could quietly turtle up somewhere and study to increase his personal power. The only thing really driving him to stick with the group is that he lops their own well-being in with his own as his friends, and so if he can't convince them of an alternate course of action, he feels obliged to make sure they don't die from what he perceives as foolishness.

Malcer is an rpg nerd. The last thing he'd be is surprised about that the literal genie grants a "capstone" powerup like that. It's incredibly on-brand. Besides which...

Malcer: "Well, that's nothing too remarkable. I can cast 'Wish' too, and I did it solely with hard work. It is, however, rather useful to have another that can cast such an auspicious magic."

@Guardian Angel Haruki, honestly, the more I think about it, Daniel won't allow a shapeshifter who means them harm to live long enough to, say, go find the nearest settlement and use his shapeshifting to impersonate the party to frame them for crimes they didn't commit.

So he'd probably work with Malcer to ensure that Bartholomew dies as soon as possible.

That is, if Barth being a Changeling is obviously known.

I’m still figuring out the class stuff… But here’s my character.

Finley “Finn” Logan





Age: 18
Birthday: February 14th
Height: 6’0”
Body Type: Athletic.
Eyes: Blonde
Hair: Blue
Pronouns: He/Him.
Orientation: Gay

Voice


Kenton Duty

Musical Theme


Smile Smile Smile

Personality


Finn is a bright, cheerful person, with an optimistic view on life. He can often be found with a smile on his face, even when things look bleak. As such, he often makes jokes, and does silly things when the situation is tense to lift people's spirits, but his attempts to make people laugh sometimes gives others the impression that he doesn't take things seriously. Finn has no idea how to react if somebody accuses him of this, other than shrug his shoulders and move on. He believes there is some good in everyone, and for that, he is very trusting of others.

Finn is very energetic, some would say hyperactive even. So much so, that it is very difficult for him to sit still and concentrate on one thing for long periods of time. Because of this, he likes to actually do stuff, instead of sitting there reading about it. While he is able to think quick on his feet during intense situations. he often acts impulsively, and jumps to conclusions without thinking first.

A genuine nice guy, he is always willing to help someone in need. Often putting the needs of others ahead of his own. After his parents divorce, and dealing with bullying, Finn is able to empathize with others in a similar situation. He makes it his personal mission to befriend and help people like this. Sometimes though, he can be too nice, to the point of gullibility, and people often take advantage of him for it. Finn is very outgoing and social. He likes meeting new people, and making new friends. He is not afraid to strike up a conversation with a random stranger. He openly expresses affection through touching in the form of hugs, holding hands, as well as stroking and grabbing shoulders. Being used to having to watch over his little sister, he's become accustomed to taking care of people.

Class: Sorcerer

Biography


Despite what Finn would tell you, Finn did not have the happiest of childhoods. After Finn’s little sister was born, the family started experiencing financial troubles after his father was laid off. The parents would often argue, and his father would often drown his sorrows with alcohol. Eventually, this would result in his parents divorcing. Finn lives with his mother and sister, and doesn’t see his father too often. The two have a strained relationship.

Things weren’t any better at school either. Finn didn’t really share many interests with other boys. He had more stereotypically feminine interests such as playing with Barbie dolls instead of Hot Wheels the otner boys were into. He was also a scrawny child, who wasn’t all that interested in sports. As such he was often called a sissy by other boys and bullied constantly. His father not so subtly reaffirmed the same sentiment. Implying that living with his mother and sister was turning him into a girl. Finn would sometimes cry in his bedroom at night.

Through all the drama, he tried to maintain a friendly upbeat demeanor in order to be a good example for his little sister. He had to care for her a lot when his parents were otherwise unavailable. Since he was the one that had to make dinner for the family, he developed an interest in cooking.

At some point when he was about to start high school, Finn’s mother announced that she would be moving to Los Angeles for a better paying job opportunity. For Finn, this was the opportunity of a lifetime. He could have a fresh start in a new town where people didn’t know him. No longer would he be the bullying victim.

He started working out, and found a sport he liked. Cheerleading. This resulted in him no longer being the scrawny little boy he once was. He was friendly and socialable, and quickly became popular on campus. At some point, Finn came out as gay. There wasn’t as much drama as Finn had been expecting and everyone was supportive, but Finn hasn’t told his dad yet… Currently, Finn is in his senior year of high school, and is the captain of the cheerleading squad. He’s currently unsure what he wants to do after High School.
