Apr 11, 2011 May 26, 2011 5:55 AM NPC Islands of War Varvara Sava 21 May 11 Violet Brown, Curly, Short Light Brown Right 5' 11" 144 lb 0 Female Medusa 4 Children of the Shadow Varvara keeps her "hair" tightly bound and strapped down on her back. This is very uncomfortable for her, but is necessary to obscure her identity. If even the slightest movement were seen, it would give others an identifying characteristic to look for. She's an abberation among Medusa, in that she finds cruelty distasteful. She is cold and callous, but does not enjoy hurting others, like many of the rest of her race. It wasn't long before she became an outcast. Seeking refuge, she donned a veil and carved a niche for herself in the seedy underbelly of human society, but she wasn't exactly comfortable there. It was during this time that she encountered a priest from the Children of the Shadow. She listened to his message and found that it filled a place in her soul she never knew was empty. Eventually, she became a priestess herself, as this affords her the privacy she craves. 0 0 300 11 12 13 12 0 0 0 0 true true true Advantages Clerical Investment Social 5 B43 Advantage Divine Powers (Children of the Shadow) Divine -10 total Pact -5 total Required Disadvantages are the Vows Dark Vision Physical, Exotic 25 Can see colors in the dark 20 total Hypersensory 40 total P46 B47 Advantage Fatigue Magery Mental, Supernatural 50 1 1 All Spells Available (Common) 30 total All Spells Available (Uncommon) 60 total Can't Maintain Spells -30 total Dance -40 total Dark-Aspected -50 total Day-Aspected -40 total Musical -50 total Night-Aspected -40 total No Armor -45 total No Facial Components 5 total No Foot Components 10 total No Gesture Components 10 total No Material Components 30 total No Speech Components 20 total No Spell Components 75 total One College Only (@Average College@) -50 total One College Only (@Easy College@) -60 total One College Only (@Hard College@) -40 total Reduced Fatigue Cost 20 1 total Requires Holy Symbol -15 total Requires Holy Symbol in Hand -20 total Requires Talisman (@Talisman@) -30 total Requires Talisman in Hand (@Talisman@) -40 total Solitary -40 total Song -40 total Spells Require Consciousness -20 total Spells Require Sight -35 total Unusual Methods (Religious) 0 total Unusual Methods (@Methods@) 20 1 total Wild Magic -40 total Limited (Darkness, Guardian, Illusion, Life and Light Colleges) -20 total Advantage Occult/Magical True Faith Mental, Supernatural 15 Chosen 0 total P84 @Deity@ Turning 65 total P84 B94 Works on undead, beings of darkness, bogey men and tresspassers Advantage Talent (Thief) Mental 2 5 B89 Advantage Pickpocket 1 Lockpicking 1 Traps 1 Stealth 1 Climbing 1 Observation 1 Disadvantages Callous Mental -5 B125 Disadvantage psychology -3 teaching -3 Greed Mental -15 12 B137 Disadvantage Lifebane Mental, Supernatural -10 B142 Disadvantage Loner Mental -5 12 B142 Disadvantage Secret (She's a Medusa) Social Serious Embarrassment -5 total B152 Utter Rejection -10 total B152 Imprisonment -20 total B152 Possible Death -30 total B152 B152 Disadvantage Vow (Never reveal identity) Physical Minor -5 total B161 Major -10 total B161 Great -15 total B161 B161 Disadvantage Vow (Never speak louder than a whisper) Physical Minor -5 total B161 Major -10 total B161 Great -15 total B161 B161 Disadvantage Languages Language: Greek Mental Native -6 total B23 Spoken 0 total B24 None Spoken 1 total B24 Broken Spoken 2 total B24 Accented Spoken 3 total B24 Native Written 0 total B24 None Written 1 total B24 Broken Written 2 total B24 Accented Written 3 total B24 Native B24 Advantage Language Language Talent Medusa, Common Advantages Appearance Physical Universal 25 total Off-the-Shelf Looks -50 total Androgynous 0 total Impressive 0 total Attractive 4 total Average 0 total Horrific -24 total Monstrous -20 total Hideous -16 total Ugly -8 total Unattractive -4 total Handsome 12 total Beautiful 12 total Very Handsome 16 total Very Beautiful 16 total Transcendent 20 total B21 Advantage Petrifying Gaze Affliction Physical, Exotic 1 10 Petrification 300 total Vision-Based 150 total Area Effect (8 yard radius semi-circle) 75 total Emanation -20 total Always On -20 total Only Works on Flesh Targets -10 total Targets must have a body composed of flesh, either living or undead Cosmic 50 total Works even when dead at +1 to resist for each day dead, including the day the medusa died B35 Emanates from face and area effect follows head motions;
