THEIR ONE-LINE ELEVATOR PITCH: Reincarnated primordial goddess seeks good times before ushering in the end of days.
THEIR ASSIGNED LEVEL & ROLE IN ALEM Around Gut's Bind trying to earn the trust of the paladins and sorcerers by doing busywork, and sensing when fuckery is about with the dead. If she's sent on errands it might be easy(?) to run into her elsewhere, too. WHY THEY'RE GOING TO MESS EVERYTHING UP, REALLY:(a) The voices will drive her to betrayal and/or (b) she'll get possessed and/or (c) an enemy necromancer will awaken the evil goddess in her. Maybe blend them all together.
THEY'VE SECRETLY GOT A THING FOR RAKKATHU, DON'T THEY? She does like the bad boys. Maybe he's got a better offer than Lucifer or Dracula.
PLOTS AND PLANS:
✘ Hanging near the Room of Seals and helping the paladins and sorcerers while trying to learn from them about how to 'protect' herself from evil forces. Help her, Galatea. ✘ Finding trouble while trying to do good deeds. Learning. Exploring! ✘ Will go into battle situations if the need arises. Might need help, might be able to help someone else. ✘ There are too many triggers here for her. With the voices, it's inevitable that Vanessa will snap after a slow descent. Imminent betrayal, anyone? ✘ If a paladin happens into a 'workplace accident' a little further into the Siege, you should ask Vanessa what her alibi was. ✘ She may try to invite the evil right on in if she can eventually get into the Room of Seals, especially if some spots conveniently open up among the necromancers. (Vi and Jack are 100% responsible for that image).
WHAT THEY CAN OFFER:
✘ Moral support with opaque commentary that probably won't help. ✘ Clairvoyance. Powers as a medium. This can backfire since it makes her receptive to powerful spirits or demons. ✘ Creepy offensive spellcasting/hexing in battle (depending on the situation). She doesn't need to be in the same room as an enemy to attack them. Has the potential to compel demons or undead by looking at them. More info on her bullshit here. ✘ She has a knife that lets her spy through any reflection for up to 10 seconds once a day. (with player permission) ✘ Betrayal. Sabotage. Disaster.
CR YOU WANT: People for sharing moral support when she's having a rough time. Someone for her to give a hug to. Someone to suffer hauntings with. Someone to suffer insomnia with. Someone to escape danger with. Someone to catch her reacting to the voices. Someone for her to attack/sabotage/betray—fail or succeed. Someone to try to stop her from going too far off the deep end. Positive, negative, neutral, bring it all.
