˖ Synopsis ˖
❝ Their empty promises were the strings of a puppeteer upon the hands of a naive little marionette... It's true. I committed this atrocious deed. I opened Pandora's box. But much like the horrors within, the intent was shrouded to me. Now, more than anything... I want to fix all of this. Please... just let me. ❞
A world stands on the precipice of ruination. They claim that the culprit is Eloise Clarent: a wandering soul who moves with the wind; the only creed she heeds being that of her own making. A capable swordswoman oft seen traversing many landscapes in pursuit of ample coin and her incessant indulgences, she's evidently a sassy individual... and a rather hot-tempered lady at that. Her playful demeanor beguiles a cunning charm that she employs nonchalantly in order to work her way out of many a harrowing situation. By all accounts, she's a wildcard - merely out for herself in the very world she has endangered.She's the one responsible, they say. But such a black and white testimony is inherently flawed. Only Eloise knows what happened upon that fateful day when the coveted and dreaded Linchpin became unshackled by her hand...Said to be a vessel of forbidden, ancient magic long lost to time, no one dared to lay a finger upon the linchpin for fear of the unknown. Once an ignorant child, over one hundred years past, Eloise found herself coerced by the schemes of manipulative sorcerers into awakening the horrific forces that linger within. She opened the linchpin, and unleashed a corruption that swept throughout the lands; withering them of all life and mutating their peoples into naught more than grotesque monsters. Slowly but surely, the corruption now spreads to this day - bleeding the world dry, little by little. Branded a villain who hastened the world's ruin, the vile fiends who put her up to the task perished in the aftermath, and now this grave mistake is her burden to bear... her sin to atone for. Against the tides of contempt, Eloise Clarent makes her move: exploring the farthest corners of the world to uncover the means to once again close the linchpin and correct the errors of a misguided youth. She is an oxymoron: tainted irrevocably by the linchpin's power - yet desperately seeks to unravel it.Her hand pulled the trigger.
Yet her hand was steered.She wants to save the world...
If only the world would listen.
˖ Dossier ˖
name: Eloise Clarent.
aliases: Catalyst of Ruin.
age: 174 (physically in her twenties).
gender: Feminine Intersex.
pronouns: She/They.
orientation: Pansexual. Call her open-minded.
occupation: Adventurer, Sellsword, Mercenary - whatever makes her sound less like a vagabond.
alignment: Chaotic Good.
home: Seguna.
height: 5'8".
skin tone: Caucasian.
build: Slim overall, albeit with a certain prominence in the curve department. Shapely hips compliment a decidedly pert bosom.
hair: A shimmering blonde set of locks that rivals the sun-kissed sands. She keeps her hair relatively short, accepting her bangs with an ornate, flower-like clip.
eyes: An amber tint that verges on a lustrous golden hue. Clear and sharp as her gaze may be, her eyes have unmistakably witnessed much discourse over her tenure.
personality: She comes across as sassy, often times playful - going about her business with a smile and a casual indifference to the world... at least, at face value. An ill-tempered streak often rears its head when people refuse to hear her side of the story, which can lead to violent outbursts. Despite her circumstances, she attempts to enjoy life to the full - partaking in jobs across the lands that may line her pockets and fuel her over-indulgent desires. She bears a deep-rooted regret for the path her life has taken and above all else wishes to resolve the corruption she inadvertently wrought.
enjoys: Hunting beasts, sightseeing, frequenting taverns, trying all manner of new things. She's an open-minded, ever-curious soul... old habits die hard.
hates: Relying on magic, being called a villain, wet weather.
fears: Unearthing more of the forbidden magic that's been etched into her by coming into contact with the Linchpin. She sparingly uses the spells she does know, and is fearful of delving too deep into the dark arts.
weapon: A longsword dubbed 'Requiem', which Eloise retrieved from the ruins of her homeland Seguna following the Linchpin's opening.
abilities: Due to her contact with the Linchpin, her body ages at a dramatically reduced rate. She bears an affinity for black magic, being capable of casting projectiles of gravitational magic designed to push back and inflict crushing damage, in addition to manifesting shadow-like auras to masquerade her position, should the need to escape arise. These spells were imprinted onto her by the Linchpin, yet she has only scratched the surface of this power. There is much greater magical potential within, but she refuses to tap into it. Too many forbidden fruits have already escaped into the wild by her actions.
