<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 24pt;"><strong>Storm-Sown Snapdragon</strong></span><br/><strong>Concept</strong>: Devilish messiah with a heart of gold and a sack full of someone else's undeserved silver.<br/><strong>Preferred Pronouns</strong>: He/him<br/><strong>Exalt type and Caste</strong>: Infernal Nadir<br/><strong>Background</strong>: Raised by bandits, "rescued" (violently) by a young and callous Lunar looking to replenish her expedition's losses by training up some impressionable kids. He tried hard to impress the new "parent" and keep his likewise-terrified siblings together; he Exalted when he discovered they weren't being prepared for an exciting life as ruin-delving scavenger princes but as trap-canaries and snacks for the surly dead. The Lunar didn't make it, but his siblings did (more or less) - now a mercenary, a monk, a pair of thieves, and a ghost respectively - and Snapdragon's taken up what he sarcastically refers to as the "family business," referencing not banditry but his late slaver's expeditionary efforts. Something to do with a God of Wishes. He's less interested in that than collecting loot (which he always seems to find himself looking for in lands held by objectionable people, and often emphatically in contrast to<em>their</em>objections) but it IS interesting. And it'd be nice to travel, see the world, kick some of the crap out of it...<br/><br/><strong>Personality</strong>:<br/>Likes: Treasure<br/>Hates: Apathy<br/>Would die to defend: His companion yeddim<br/>Will never do: Sacrifice someone else for his own benefit<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Attributes</strong></span>:<br/><strong>Force</strong>: ●●●○○<br/><strong>Finesse</strong>:●●●●○<br/><strong>Fortitude</strong>:●●○○○<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Abilities</strong></span>:<br/><strong>Awareness</strong>: -<br/><strong>Athletics</strong>: 2<br/><strong>Close combat</strong>: 3<br/><strong>Craft</strong>: 2<br/><strong>Embassy</strong>: 2<br/><strong>Integrity</strong>: 1<br/><strong>Navigate</strong>: 4<br/><strong>Performance</strong>: -<br/><strong>Physique</strong>: 5<br/><strong>Presence</strong>: -<br/><strong>Ranged Combat</strong>:  -<br/><strong>Sagacity</strong>: 3<br/><strong>Stealth</strong>: 3<br/><strong>War</strong>: -<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Merits</strong></span>:<br/><strong>Artifact ●●●●●</strong>(Primary)<br/>- Temple of the Body Aureate, an orichalcum set of articulated plate.<br/><br/><strong>Familiar ●●●</strong>(Secondary)<br/>- Queen Regardless, a demon-blooded yeddim with immense, thunderous dragonfly wings and apparent immunity to exhaustion.<br/><br/><strong>Artifact ●●</strong>(Tertiary)<br/>- Always Home, an enchanted howdah with several spacious rooms.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Charms</strong></span>:<br/>Physique Excellency<br/>Devil-Body Incarnation<br/>Shadow Spite Curse<br/>Joy in Violence<br/>Fists of Iron Technique<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Virtues</strong></span>: Major -<em>Compassion</em>; Minor -<em>Wonder</em><br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Intimacies</strong></span>:<br/><br/>Major<br/>Compassion - "I'll do better with the world than the rabble I plan to take it from."<br/><br/>Minor<br/>Compassion - Queen Regardless (Camaraderie)<br/>Wonder - Treasures of Ages Past (Desire)<br/><br/><br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Essence</strong></span>: 1<span class="bbc_u"><strong>Motes</strong></span>: 5<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Health levels</strong></span><br/>2x0<br/>2x1<br/>1x2<br/>Incap<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Parry</strong></span>: 4<br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Evasion</strong></span>: 3<br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Soak</strong></span>: 2 (7)<br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Hardness</strong></span>: 4<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Equipment</strong></span>:<br/><strong>Temple of the Body Aureate (Artifact 5)</strong><br/><em>Orichalcum articulated plate</em><br/><br/><em>Forged from the gleaming sarcophagus of Creation's first Solar martial artist, this ornate set of armor is meshed with the silk of her many-legged mentor and joined by the colorful leather of the devils she slew in her final hour.
