I should probably make a list of rooms that are already taken...

@Dragonydas

Qaymu's Resident list

Achieng Chima - Watumaji -Grad Student - 1-107. Always looks like she's smiling, but there's something deeper. Big appetite. After my body for a snack and my gold to pay off her student debts.

Max - Human - Front Desk - 1-113. Amulet doesn't seem to be protecting him much, an easy grip metal or plastic coffee cup might work out better. Or a case of them. Has access to the master keys, possible threat to my bedding.

Velvet Coventry - Vampire - Evening Bartender - 1-205. Looks familiar. Wants my blood and my gold to buy games. If she sips my blood, remember to put her ashes in a clean jar and whatever you do, don't bleed on it. Watch out for a blood vial.

Elephtheria

Name: Elephtheria (Theria) Lasthena
Image/Appearance:

Carefull. Snake Inside

At first glance, Theria may look too young to be the assistant manager at Umbra Rose Condos, being only 23 years old, but she has lived here all the time so she knows every nook and cranny of each building. Her hair is made of eight different green tree pythons, each one with their own personality and quirks, but all of them with a vivid green color. She has olive skin and green emerald eyes, almost always behind a pair of large round glasses.

She is often seen dressed in cute dresses, usually cream or lavender, but will use a suit if necessary. If she needs to hide the snakes on her head, it is usually by using a beanie, though she prefers not to have anything on top of her snakes.

Race: Gorgon

Racial Traits:
Most famous trait of a gorgon might be their petrifying stare. Anyone that looks directly at her eyes is almost instantly petrified. In the Umbra Rose Condos, every single Gorgon is given a pair of protective glasses that allow them to have face to face conversations with other residents, but they are also given de-petrifying potions in case accidents happen.

The second most famous trait might be their impressive hair that is constantly shifting… mostly because it’s actually composed of snakes. In Theria’s case, her hair is composed of eight different snakes, each one with their own personality. They are all green tree pythons and are all very gentle… except one.

The third trait is their lower bodies. Gorgons have the lower body of a snake and can silently slither if they so wish.

Requirements:
Gorgon Stare protective glasses, a small supply of de-petrification potions, UV lamps, access to small insects or mammals to keep their "hair" fed.

Personality:
Theria is very friendly and warm-hearted, and will always try her best to help anyone in need. She is, however, extremely clumsy, which often leads to her glasses falling off and accidentally petrifying residents… or mostly the receptionist, Max.

She is very much aware of her clumsiness though, so she always carries with her de-petrification potions and will immediately apply said potion and apologize profusely once the potion has taken effect.

She is slightly introverted and enjoys conversing mostly with the snakes on her head. She named each one according to their personality and quirks and will often just start talking with them and ignore the world around her.

Due to her age and inexperience, she sometimes feels out of place, but is always determined to prove herself to be the best assistant manager that ever existed, and one day, be the manager herself.

She, and most of her snakes, are also huge nerds and are particularly in love with the new sensation travelling the internet... V-Tubers. Both her and her snakes each have a favorite, which can sometimes cause a peacefull argument between everyone.

Background:
Theria has always lived in Umbra Rose Condos, ever since she came out of her egg. Her mother, a Gorgon that fell in love with a human, left her egg at the door steps of the Condo while she escaped to a different city. Theria was raised by the manager, the Gargoyle Arborox, that was completely immune to her petrifying stare. Arborox took care of Theria as if she was his own child and taught her many things about the condominium, the residents, and the intricacies of management. Theria was fascinated with everything, and, when the time came, she immediately applied to the assistant manager position. Luckily, no one else applied, though she suspected that Arborox might have done something about that, and she got the job.

Now she spends her times doing what is needed of her, especially now since Arborox has now decided to take a leave of absence for a trip to Paris to meet with family.

Building, Floor, and room: Building 2, Floor 2, Room 202.
Room description: Her appartment is very simple and quaint. She has a small television in her living room that usually also serves as a dining room. The kitchen, separated only by a single balcony, is very simple, with only a small stove, a fridge and a microwave.

She has a guest room always prepared in case any resident is having issues with their own apartment, but her room is always off-limits as her room is filled with everything Japan, Anime, and most importantly, VTuber merch. She has a large round bed with an UV light right above it for when she needs an extra bit of light and a small desk where she can plop her laptop and work.

[Expendable]

I'm reminded of Modest Medusa.

I like her, she seems like fun. One suggestion - if there's people Elephtheria don't want to unpetrify, I'm sure they'd make excellent store manniquins.

Do the tennants who fail to pay their fees wind up petrified in the garden? Inquiring minds and all that.

@Dragonydas

Omg CUUUUUTE.
One question for… reasons: are we talking insta-stone form or is it a sort of gradual over a short time stone transformation?

[Sky Blue]

@LupusIntusi vote for gradual. head down, since that's where the eyes are.

@LupusIntus

Gradual over short time feels funnier. You can still go... "Oh God... not aga..."

[Dragonydas]

@LupusIntusi vote for gradual. head down, since that's where the eyes are.

@Sky Blue

Reverse direction... so you can still make weird faces

[LupusIntus]

Also I cannot stop thinking about Max being constantly frozen in the most embarrassing poses: trying to catch the pen Theria just dropped, statued while trying to hold his pants up after she tripped and snagged them, falling backwards into the pool after she bumped him. Someone HAS to have a photo wall of all the petrified poses.

@LupusIntus

There was that time Qaymu came into the lobby while it was raining and seeing the coat rack was full, used a petrified Max to hold his wet hat, trench coat and umbrella while Elephtheria was fetching the antidote.

[Framing A Moose]

Hey all! Was thinking about joining up - wanted to ask what the actual roleplay will be like in practice. Will there be an overarching plot? Active GMing?

[BunniesOfDoom]

I love the thought of suddenly there are statues of ghosts or invisible tenets that no one knew were there suddenly just appearing next to a group of them mid conversation.

[Theyra]

I think I will not be joining this rp but good luck with it.
