Description
A female gnome is before you. Even for a gnome she seems a bit small,
standing at only 2 feet and 6 inches tall. Her body is rather
proportional, unlike many of her kind who are more wiry in build. Her
skin is pale-grayish and her hair is as white as untouched snow, extending
down to her shoulders. Her eyes are a bright red color, and seem to
shimmer in the light. She has long pointed ears that stick up through
her hair, similar to elven ears. She could be called pretty by some,
but her features are a bit boyish overall. She moves as if trying to
avoid attention, often stepping out of your view for a moment. Her
eyes are generally lowered to look at the ground unless focused on
something specific. However, there is a fire in those eyes. Something
only noticeable after a second or third look.
Role
Small Things
Added Thu Nov 7 22:14:32 2019 at level 1:
- Habdazzle was born and raised in Hillcrest.
- Habdazzle was born an albino and much smaller than other gnomes.
- She has 7 brothers and sisters.
- Her parents are both respected magi within the city. Her father brews potions.
Her mother works for wealthy families, teaching basic spells to their children.
- All of Habdazzle's brothers and sisters have magical abilities and are rather
good at magic.
- Habdazzle has no magical abilities what-so-ever.
- Habdazzle has spent 60 years trying out different magical techniques and trying
to learn in as many ways as she can, but there's nothing. No magical abilities
at all.
- This lack of magical ability has been a constant source of embarrassment and
pain for Habdazzle.
- When she was young, she was bullied by other children and even her own brothers
and sisters would bully her. It wasn't all bad. There were some good times, but
the harrassment never really stopped. She was seen as a joke.
- Her size, her albinism, and her lack of magical ability was always a source of
embarrassment for her mother and father as well.
- Her parents tried to ease her concerns, but it was obvious that she was a burden
on them.
- Habdazzle is shy and generally keeps to herself... For now.
- She has quite the chip on her shoulder.
- She has joined a guild, and seems to have something to prove to the world.
- She is uneasy about magic, for now. She isn't quite sure how she feels about it.
On one hand, she is envious of magic users, and wishes to have what they have.
However, on the other hand, she feels betrayed by magic and doesn't understand
why it doesn't want her.
- Oh, and one last thing. She HATES bullies.
Something to Believe in
Added Wed Nov 20 16:48:53 2019 at level 40:
- Habdazzle has heard nothing from her family in quite some time. She traveled home,
to Hillcrest, not long ago and ended up killing a councilman. He was quite respected
as she understands. She wonders what this could mean. If anything at all.
- Habdazzle has spent much time around mages while advancing. She has relied on mages
from time to time, and a mage or two has saved her life. This has helped her heal,
a bit, when it comes to her feelings on the mystical arts and their wielders.
- Habdazzle has spent time traveling, training, and speaking with people from all
over Thera. As such, she has mostly gotten over her shyness, and has opened up a bit.
- Her time spent traveling has opened her up some, yes, but she is still a heavily
guarded person who prefers to stay to herself and to keep silent most of the time.
- She has spent most of the past 30 years, or so, training. Habdazzle knows she will
always be the smallest and the weskest, but where she can make up ground is through
skill, swiftness, intelligence, and being wiser than others.
- Habdazzle plans to continue training and advancing through her guild until she is
prepared to make her stand.
- Habdazzle plans to be a champion of the underdog. One who stands up to bullies, no
matter where they are or how tough they are.
- Habdazzle will do what she thinks is necessary for the greater good. If she must
kill elves, so be it. If she must lie, let it be so. However, she is not cold enough
that these things do not effect her. She is often haunted by the dead. Images of
man and beast play in her head as she tries to rest on many nights. Creatures slain
by her blade, or perhaps allies that she could not save.
- She has heard rumor of a God who does not judge others on their size and strength,
but rather on their wit and tongue.
- Habdazzle has felt so alone for so long. She wants to believe in something or
someone desperately. She believes she has found her someone in Nalasul.
Two Homes
Added Thu Jan 30 15:06:34 2020 at level 51:
- After years of training and practice, Habdazzle has reached the pinnacle of her
guild. However, her training is not complete and she still plans to gain mastery of
her craft. This way, she can challenge the big-folk of the world.
- Habdazzle has found acceptance as a member of the High Tower of Sorcery, and this
acceptance means so so much to her. The majority of her life has been spent as an
outcast. Having some place she can rest, true, has impacted her greatly.
- She spends much of her time at the tower, drinking and talking with the random
patrons. She, perhaps, has further plans to open up her own classroom someday, but
for now that remains only a thought. She has, however, developed a curious
relationship with the bartender at the tower. Often those with a keen eye can spot
them whispering together. What they whisper remains unknown.
- This relationship with the Tower has also softened her views on mages even further
than they had been simply by traveling with mages. By being taken in by the Tower,
Habdazzle feels she owes something to the magically inclined.
- Habdazzle still feels she needs to help and protect other gnomes and svirfnebli
because of her past treatment and knowing the world is harsher on the smaller-folk.
She plans on continuing to provide aid to her kin and cousins.
- For years, Habdazzle searched for the Lady Nalasul's shrine. It wasn't until she
happened to wander into a clearing did she manage to stumble upon it.
- Upon entering, it was as if Habdazzle could breathe a little easier. As if the
burden of life was just a bit lighter. As if it were softened somehow. She felt...
Home.
- She even spoke with the Lady Nalasul, herself. Habdazzle was nervous, but that
quickly faded. Nalasul was beautiful, and scary, and generous, and ferocious. She
appeared a shadowed Queen in Habdazzle's eyes. But, of course, she is even more.
- Habdazzle and Nalasul spoke at length, and Habdazzle was given two tasks. One she
has already completed, and the other occupies most of her time.
- Now Habdazzle seeks to speak to her Lady, once more. Habdazzle wishes to learn
and grow under the shadow of her Lady. This is what she desires most.
Making her Move
Added Tue Mar 17 15:03:49 2020 at level 51:
- For years and years Habdazzle thought she could do no magic. However, an
old gnome by the name of Gilversplitz showed her that herbs could be combined
into potions. This revelation means perhaps, one day, Habdazzle might be
able to do a bit of magic herself. But that is for another time.
- Habdazzle has traveled and seen the world. She has been to many remote and
powerful places. And everywhere she sees how the small and weak are treated.
She thinks they need a hero. Someone to root for.
- Habdazzle still seeks her Lady Nalasul. Nalasul, the wise. Nalasul, the
great. Nalasul, the bold. Habdazzle is so grateful for having someone to
look up to. To have a Lady.
- After many years as a member of the High Tower of Sorcery, Habdazzle has
a real soft-spot for magic and mages. She has been treated kindly by so many
magi. This has given her a bit of a soft spot for the Entropy Tower. She
feels she can relate to them a bit. We'll see how this plays out.
- Habdazzle has finally finished her training. She has a couple of small
tasks to complete still, but she feels she is truly ready to compete.
- She is ready to make her mark on the world. To show what she's got.
- Habdazzle has been bullied and over-looked her entire life, and she has
something to prove.
- Habdazzle has decided to start a business. She wants to become a bounty
hunter.
- She wants to be a bounty hunter for a few reasons. One, she wants to show
the big-folk of the world what she's got! Second, she desires to make a bit
of coin in the process. Third and lastly, she wants to show the other small-
folk and overlooked dregs of society that they can fight back and make
something of themselves.
- She knows she will lose friends and make many enemies, and she's ready for
it.
