Rip Van Winkle

Name: Rosalyn
Alias Rip Van Winkle
ProfessionWanderer
Nationality; German
Race; Nosferatu
Gender: F
Appearance 24
Age: 240 years
Height: 5'8"
Appearance: Her true form when she was human has short blonde hair, she wears glasses and has dimples. She is usually wearing an old leather SS officer uniform, and she has striking blue eyes. Around her neck dangles a silver emblem that she refers too as the black sun. And on her hand she wears two white gloves that carry the same symbol in black.

Shade Form; Has no real effect on anything however when she is in the shade, she seems to take on a completely different appearance. She appears to be an shadowy figure with long black hair, and rows of glistening razor sharp teeth and her eyes ignite into this ominous white glare that reflects off her glasses. Its like the darkness betrays her and gives her away as something more then merely a vampire.
((Its a writing tool))


Nosferatu Form; Rather then protrude fangs to bite her victim, an ancient vampire has had time to evolve into something else. No longer does she carry the appearance of anything remotely human when she is her true putrid self, she is a nightmarish and terrifying abomination of nature. A gaping wide mouth with rows of razor sharp teeth, a grotesque though powerful frame with long claw like fingers and giant ears. A freakishly bizzar monstrosity, that is the emobdiment of gluttony and suffering.

Skills
Psionics; Above Average
These are powers of the mind, such as telepathy, psycho kinetics, and clairsentience, used to create fantastic effects. Rip Van Winkles powers are still limited but with every passing day she is becoming a little stronger.


Weapons;
No weapons

Vampiric Abilities

Illusionary Web; She can turn a room into a castle, or a shack into a magnificent throne room. She can use psionics to create mirages that trick the senses of taste sight and sound even touch. Nothing she can create can harm. She also uses this to alter her appearance, she usually never looks the same twice.

Mirage; A psionic attack that if hits alters perception with potent fear induced hallucinations, and creates a really bad trip it acts sort of like a venom and dissipates within 3 minutes .

Nightmare Creature; Using her influence over the darkness she conjures forth a shadowy creature to help fight for her, generally a small sized shade that takes on a terrifying form. Beyond its ability to be frightening, it can be slain with normal weapons and arcana alike and is not very tough just creepy as hell.

((Razzle Dazzle; Her trump card when it comes to a firefight, Rosalyn uses a musket for a particulary strange reason. If she has space she can use psionics to control the marble like shot, little pushes left to right up or down can send the pellet zooming everywhich way. Its particulary tricky to pull off, but if she does its rather formidable. Though she currently has no weapon, this technique is there for when she achieves it))


Personality; She is sinister and pure evil but carries herself in an almost bubbly air headed manner. She desires the blood of vampires which is what brought her to purgatory, she carries herself in friendly cheerful manner even when being utterly cruel. She loves old symphony and ochestra musics, and knows a trick of two on the piano and violin. She has a quirk, if there is a fat kid eating candy she almost cant resist but to eat it. There is something about people with high blood sugar that she craves, sweet blood is the best blood in her oppinion.

I'm afraid we don't let level zero characters start off with guns in any form.

Fountain of Knowledge - she can see some of a person's history/life experiences when she drinks from them, but not their entire life.

Arachnaphobia - She can only call spiders within the immediate vacinity and if she calls more than twenty of them, she gains of risk of losing control over them.

Razzle Dazzle - kind of pointless if she doesn't have a gun.

Illusionary Web - Those os a strong will or psionic/psychic abilities of their own (depending on the character) will be able to see right through the illusions. Also, at this point in time she can only trick with sight, not sound, touch or taste.

Make those changes and I'll look again.

I think that basically made every ability I have kind of mute, considering this pc doesnt have much in the way of physical fighting ability or direct damage skills. The only thing I really had was razzle dazzle.

Im going to make the changes but maybe we can negotiate on Arachnaphobia? Im going to set up two skills to replace, fountain of knowledge and arachnaphobia. And then maybe with premission keep razzle dazzle for when I finally get my hands on a flint lock pistol which I dont think will be that hard with solid rping to achieve it. I can most def understand that I cannot start out with it, but id like to keep razzle dazzle for when I do.

I could not access the page from the computer that im on to edit, so ill list these two abilities that I would like to replace Arachnaphobia and Fountain Of Knowledge with.

Mirage; A psionic attack that if hits alters perception with potent fear induced hallucinations, and creates a really bad trip it acts sort of like a venom and dissipates within 3 minutes . = I would like this to replace Fountain Of Knowledge.

Nightmare Creature; Using her influence over the darkness she conjures forth a shadowy creature to help fight for her, generally a small sized shade that takes on a terrifying form. Beyond its ability to be frightening, it can be slain with normal weapons and arcana alike and is not very tough just creepy as hell. = I would like to replace Arachnaphobia with this.

Tommorow evening I will be able to get at my home computer, and be able to fix and revamp the segments removing the flintlock pistol and making the desired changes to the rest of the sheet.

I think these two abilities will serve me a little better, sorry about the wait its difficult getting the time I need.

No problem. Just remember that skills like Mirage, aren't going to work every time, some characters will be able to look past the illusion due to their own mental abilities.

Once this is all edited, it should be good for approval.

Alright I made the changes, im not sure what else needs to be done. The only question now I have to ask, is what lvl is my pcs Psionics ? Id imagine because im using only psionics id be pretty good with that skill.

You didn't list a proper skill for psionics (unless I missed it), if you want him to have that ability you have to put it in as a skill. Also, since your character is level zero, the highest Psionics can be would be Above Average, which I'll allow you to have right now. However, you need to give it a description and list how strong it is, which won't be exceedingly strong right now.

Well every technique I have put down on the table is basically psionics including Razzle Dazzle, they all involve some form of mental manipulation and psychic phenomenon is psionics in its truest form.

I made the changes and put down psionics as a skill.

I think that about sums it up.

If you're just using psionics in conjunction with your other skills, that description is good enough and you're okay to be approved. If you plan on using it separately, you're going to have to describe more than 'fantastic effects'.

Nope I will will be using it in conjunction with my other abilities, I assume that as I progress I can make new techniques as I go correct ?
