Name: Blaire Dunwich
Age: 17 years old
Height/Weight: 5’6”, 140 lbs
Species: Witch

Role: N/A
Best Trait: Her mature and understanding nature
Worst Trait: Her inability to stand up for herself
Good Habit: Very cleanly and meticulous about her surroundings
Bad Habit: Tends to lie

Abilities:
❂ Eldritch Magic ❂
Mental Breakdown
Cosmic Awareness
Symbol Magic

Strengths:
✦ Mental Breakdown gives her the ability to probe the minds of her opponents and cause their minds to break
✦ Through Cosmic Awareness, Blaire is able to understand select secrets of the universe from the Outer Gods that cannot be explained or expressed to others. These secrets include the truth of creation and greater knowledge of the sciences, undiscovered pieces of the universe, and of the Eldritch entities themselves (examples of these "entities" include Cthulhu Mythos, Shub-Niggurath, and Nug and Yeb, the Twin Blasphemies)
✦ Symbol Magic allows her the ability to use Eldritch runes to alter her environment or enchant various objects to become more useful to her (for example: making weapons a bit stronger or altering climate or creating light to see in the dark)
✦ Symbol Magic also allows Blaire to draw various ritual circles to call upon lesser Eldritch entities, though this has a low success rate

Weaknesses:
✦ Using Mental Breakdown may cause irreversible physical and mental damage to the affected or to Blaire herself, permanent madness or slight mutation of their physical form into a less human, more grotesque one
✦ Cosmic Awareness does not grant Blaire enhanced intelligence and really does not benefit her in any way, causes her to lose some sanity due to being able to understand bizarre and inhuman concepts
✦ Powers sometimes act against Blaire’s will, as she is unable to control the Eldritch Gods’ thoughts and plans, only carry out their orders. When summoning entities, Blaire can easily lose all control of the entity if she does not apply all of her focus to the task at hand.
✦ Creating runes can quickly drain Blaire's energy depending on how complex they are
✦ Mental Breakdown is limited to range of touch and cannot affect more than 3 targets at any given time

Bio: From a very young age, Blaire has been a reserved and quiet girl. Her parents, an unfortunate pair of witches, didn’t know how to deal with her apparent inability to socialize or act like any young girl her age. Blaire was often up into the late hours of the night, mumbling to herself and drawing symbols and runes no one could interpret. Being that they were witches, her parents had to hide their magick from the general population of humans, living in secrecy in alleys or any apartment that would graciously take them in. This meant they had to move around excessively and do unfavorable things in order to earn enough money to live. In her first 7 or 8 years of life, Blaire never got the opportunity to establish a bond with her mother and father and tended to stay inside and isolated to avoid the humans that would ridicule her. She never appeared to be interested in friends or young, silly, girlish things. This concerned everyone around her, some going as far as to say that Blaire needed psychiatric attention, but most neighbors just sighed and figured it was because Blaire lacked parental love and care. As soon as she could read, Blaire began to homeschool herself, learning from any book that was lying around and doing small chores for neighbors to earn enough spare change to buy more of them. At age 11, her parents disappeared under mysterious circumstances, leaving Blaire practically orphaned. From rumors, Blaire could figure out that it was either a drug deal gone awry or a gang murder, but she never was able to get the closure she deserved. She eventually got a job at the bookstore she’d been a patron at for years and saved up to buy a new home: a small, cramped, eclectic cottage on the outskirts of town. Now, at age 17, Blaire owns the bookstore she used to be a clerk at due to the owner’s recent death and has managed to fly under the radar in terms of her mystical powers and deep secrets.
Personality: To an outsider, Blaire seems to be basically mute and inept socially and mentally. Her voice is meek, she doesn’t like eye contact, and she never seems to understand the norms that everyone so easily follows. Internally, though, she is an old soul with a soft heart lacking in malicious intent. The cause of her clumsiness with interaction is partly attributed to her childhood neglect, but most of it comes from a much darker place. Ever since she was born, Blaire was targeted by the “Outer Gods”, omnipotent entities that sought control over her and her mind. She was young and very easily molded by them, and thus only communicated with them and few others. This back-and-forth of telepathic and astral relations drove Blaire to madness, bottled up insanity. A human can only understand so much about their own existence until they lose it, after all. Blaire exhibits a skewed sense of humor as well, preferring darker and slightly more offensive jokes than others. Because of her upbringing, she has trouble connecting with others emotionally and cuts off her compassion when she meets new people. It is difficult to get on her good side, but once you do, she is a great listener and gives excellent advice. Blaire is very loyal to those who earn her trust but will remain suspicious and disreputable to strangers. Though her magick is very strong and can be easily used for wrongdoings, Blaire keeps a lid on the gods’ demands and influences and tries her best not to utilize her power to its full capacity. If asked about it, she’ll probably deny that she has any magick at all.

Please elaborate on xactly what she is capable of doing with her magic.
Cosmic Awareness is a 'no'.
With a couple of those weaknesses, I'm not sure which power they're referring to.... Which power is limited to touch, and what's the exact number of targets it can effect? Which thing(s) can cause irreversible physical and mental damage to the target and/or herself?

i edited the "Cosmic Awareness" ability to make it much more subtle so i hope it's okay now!! i'm hesitant about removing it completely so i will edit it as much as i have to to make it right for the guild. i also made everything much more specific.

Ahhh... I don't think you understood what I meant about elaborating, but that's my fault for phrasing it wrong.. Sorry about that. I was on the verge of passing out when I got to looking at your profile.

I meant things like limits. Mind break seems okay, just make sure you ask people before using it on their characters. But other than that.. The symbol magic.. What are the limits of that? What are the downsides? What kinds of 'Eldritch entities' can she summon? How powerful are those? Will they obey her? Will they not?
Comic Awareness is still a bit iffy. What does it help her know? What sorts of things are those 'select secrets'? As long as it doesn't turn into auto-knowing events happening in the guild, then I suppose it will be okay though.


Also, I just noticed in her hobbies that you have photography. This setting is a high fantasy, more medieval type of setting. ^^; We don't really have modern technology.

sorry for the misunderstandings. i'll add some more detail right now and take out the photography. by traditional, i meant more of a dark room, 1860's photography but now i see what you're saying about how that couldn't necessarily apply to this universe. i'll fix it up, thank you for the clarification. i'm really really new to making characters in this format and even newer to gaia and its guilds.

p.s. the cosmic awareness wouldn't give her insight to anything happening in roleplays, i wouldn't give her that much of a strength

XD You have nothing to be sorry for, silly. That was my fault. And okie dokies. o.o Yea, it takes some getting used to. ^^; If you need any help with forum stuff, there are lots of people in this guild who are pretty good at different things, and usually pretty helpful as well.
Do you have a Discord? There's a server for this guild, which a lot of us use for talking quickly.

Ahh.. Alrighty. That's good to know. In that case, it should be okies. ^^ Let me know when you've got the stuff dealt with.
