Abstract ProxyI hope that it isn't rude to post a character sheet without expressing any prior interest, but I had a minor bout of inspiration and felt drawn to the irreverence of this thread.
I also gambled on a potential role existing related to cleaning, so apologies in advance if that was a step too far. Someone has to clean up the remains of Eldritch horror or their unfortunate victims after all.
"The laws of chivalry are very strict on this matter..."
Name: Adaline de Beaumont
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Physical Description: Perpetually covered in grime and spots of cleaning solution, Ada somehow manages to look heroic despite her self-styled haircut. Tall enough to be a reasonable goalkeeper, Ada is built like a competitive climber and if she wasn't so busy chasing down the Holy Grail she'd make a great recruit for a budding NCAA Division I Women's Basketball team.
Unconcerned with fashion, Ada wears a rotating number of Gas-Way Custodial Staff Overalls (tm) regardless of whether she is on or off the clock.
Applied Position: Stock Clerk
REASON FOR EMPLOYMENT: Ada freely offers that she applied for a job at Gas-Way Express Co as part of her quest to find the Holy Grail. She further elaborates that a wielding a mop is not all that different from wielding a sword, so her job at Gas Way Express Co allows her to keep her knightly skills sharp.
BUDGETING: Having taken a sacred vow to forswear material possessions Ada has a remarkable talent for donating her pay check in record time or spending her hard-earned cash on others. Beyond supporting a nearby children's hockey team, called the Landsharks, Ada claims to be bankrolling a minor chapter of Hospitaller knights in Poland engaged in an endless conflict against the forces of the undead. Lacking any disposable or discretionary income following her acts of charity, Ada lives with her brother Roger and his seven interdimensional cats.

DISLIKES:

TRINKETS: Ada keeps a sharp sword sheathed on her hip at all times. Although at first reluctant, Management relented when Ada complained about having to fight off the Giant Rats that continue to threaten the safety of the Stockrooms and the company goods. When asked, Ada happily explains that she received the sword from some lady she met in a lake many years ago.
Written entirely in medieval French, Ada's application to Gas Way and her CV betray a remarkable talent for cursive and writing with a feathered pen. Through judicious use of Google Translate, it appears that prior to her career as a professional knight and custodial engineer, Ada completed a two-year vocational degree in chemical engineering at the nearby Galahad Technical High School. A native of the small town of Camelot, location unknown, in her application Ada mentions being recommended by one, Sir William Marshal, to apply for a position within the honorable Gas-Way Express Company.
Since her hiring, Ada has been a model employee and despite frequent unfortunate incidents entirely outside of her control, the floors have never looked so clean. With hygiene in mind and the flow of stock, Management has elected to ignore that Ada's habit of engaging in long sword duels with imaginary beings, her frequent conversations with long dead knights about matters of chivalry, and her steadfast belief that she is a knight-errant tasked by King Arthur himself with finding the Holy Grail.
The stock room is a fiefdom of its own and few pay any great attention to the mysterious stock clerks that navigate the labyrinth of passages dedicated to frozen and dry goods.
Cleaning Chemist ► A true student of the craft of cleaning, Ada has not just mastered the way of the broom, mop, and bucket, but also learned how to combine the endless number of cleaning solutions that Management gives her into new, far more deadly concoctions capable of melting an entire Panzer IV in three minutes or less.
Hardihood ► Physically resilient and gifted with an aptitude for medieval warfare, Ada sees herself as the epitome of a medieval knight. Warrior, bathroom stall poet, and scholar of discarded magazines, Ada does her best to live her life as if the current year is 1228 and she's getting ready to fight in the War of the Lombards.
Martial Arms ► Convinced that ability with a sword is the height of civilization, Ada spends much of her free time practicing with her trusty sword and an assorted collection of medieval weapons she is rumored to keep hidden in the Stockrooms.
Chivalric Code ► A proud knight-errant, Ada lives her life by the chivalric code as laid forth in the Livre de Chevalerie by Geoffroi de Charny. As such she is unwavering in her dedication to the principles it dictates. In her unceasing conflict with the giant rats of the Stockrooms, this has caused occasional difficulties when Ada has insisted that the vermin be allowed the right to trial by combat.
