Court Magician Sybille

Bio

• Name: Sybille de Janvier
• Academic Ability: Superb
• Athletics Ability: Clumsy
• Blood Type: O-
• Favorite Food: Steamed Pudding
• Associated Animal: Dog
• Hair: Dark brown, just to the shoulders.
• Build: Slender but not overly delicate. Good proportions.

Skills

• Hedge Magic 1: Somewhat poor at this basic magic, and dependent on the Grimoire's power to achieve things besides basic forms and simple charms.
• Poker Face -1: "I, kn-know I can do it!"
• Shine 3: Despite appearances, actually fairly magnetic and good at moving people once able to muster some courage.
• Soul Sorcery 4: A once-in-a-generation talent at a forbidden art that is easily mistaken for a divine one.

• Hedge Magic: A lesser magecraft based on using charms and ritual, working with the natural mechanisms of the world. Considered to be overly complicated and not very effective by more urbane practitioners of magic, and weaker than the high theurgy popular in the imperial court.
  • Obstacle 0: Sense details from nature, such as weather, the locations of edible plants or the migration patterns and habits of regional animals.
  • Obstacle 0: Create pretty baubles, charms and other things that are pleasant and/or smell nice.
  • Obstacle 1: Use charms for an offensive attack, like turning preserved feathers or roses into missiles.

• Soul Sorcery: The stored magic of the Future Grimoire, based on principles of theurgy but working by actualizing the divine potential within the caster and their environment rather than by emulating sacred god-forms. It is considered profane by those who understand the mechanisms.
  • Obstacle 0: Get along with ghosts and spirits.
  • Obstacle 0: Detect spirits as a shiver on your back.
  • Obstacle 1: Create and control a natural force like fire, light or wind as long as it appears to be unnaturally blue.
  • Obstacle 1: Peer into the nature of a mortal soul.
  • Obstacle 1: Give a minor blessing to a soul like cheering them up, taking away pain or granting minor good luck (so minor accidents don't happen).
  • Obstacle 1: Mend a physical body by making it remember the shape of its soul.
  • Obstacle 2: Peer into the nature of a grandiose, divine or otherwise immortal soul.
  • Obstacle 2: Harm a physical body by twisting the connection it has with the soul.
  • Obstacle 3: Affect a soul with a temporary curse or a blessing of noticeable effect, like ensuring that a specific mundane task will absolutely succeed or fail.
  • Obstacle 4: Remove or displace a soul from a location and shift it elsewhere (the body accompanying it is optional).

Connections

• Accessory: the Future Grimoire: A grimoire written by a future version of herself who became selfish and covetous due to dependance on borrowed power, eventually waging war on the world and despoiling it. The contents seemingly change with each reading, making it ambiguous if her future self's intention was to prevent the disastrous future from happening or lock her past self into that fate.
• Connection 1: The Queen, My Friend: Was best friends with the then-princess, before being sent away by her father.

Bonds and Afflictions

• Affliction: "I might not be able to do much, but I can always sacrifice myself for the people I care about." 3

Arc Traits

• Wounded Angel 3
  • Dramatic: Appears strikingly in scenes of intense blue, such as under the moonlight or in the absence of strong direct light.
  • Devices: The Future Grimoire enhances magical arts.
  • Divine Health: The inevitability of a terrible fate denies her death.
  • (Cage for a) Blasphemy: The blasphemer who discovered the nature of the soul and became covetous and selfish.
  • Empowered Wounds: Unleash incredible power at a terrible price.
  • Recover: Relinquish borrowed power and deny the terrible fate its privilege.
  • Salvation: Sacrifice much to preserve a life, once.
  • Supreme Invocation: A wish to change the world using power born of a terrible sacrifice.
  • Union: Unbreakable bonds with those saved.

XP and Quests

• XP Emotion: "Aww."
• Floating XP: 6
• Recharge Tokens: 0
• Issues:
  • Mystery 1: Head Gardener Serana is pretty mysterious, isn't she?
  • Sickness 1: The Future Grimoire seems to have caused some problems for me, hasn't it?
  • Sickness 1: Ah... so I've been marked by a demon, haven't I?

• BASIC QUEST: Workplace Training (2/10): (Work and Study) Reframe a scene as being part of learning the ins and outs of being court magician.
  • Use an exclamation or whine like "I'm trying!" or "I'm learning, alright?!"
• Improve on Hedge Magic (0/25): (Mental Training) Learn the principles of hedge magic in order to better serve as court magician, given the risks involved in using Soul Sorcery to excess.
  • Have an accident or mishap involving misuse of magic, or struggle to accomplish something difficult. [5]
  • Discuss the concepts involving hedge magic with someone more experienced. [5]
  • Have a personal, monologued breakthrough involving concepts underlying magic. [5]
• Reconnect with the Queen (5/25): (Connecting) Reforge a withered friendship with the Queen and become close again.
  • Have a misunderstanding that ends poorly and requires later reconciliation.[5]
  • Talk with advisers and others surrounding the Queen to discover how she's changed. [5]
  • Have a close personal moment that ends well. [5]
• Master the Grimoire (0/40): (Bind) Take control of the Future Grimoire's power in order to gain some understanding of the terrible future that might come to pass and hopefully avoid it.
  • Discover uncomfortable truths that unsettle you. [5]
  • While left alone, have a tangible moment of dread over the coming future. [5]
  • Consider the implications of the Grimoire's existence and compose your own theories about the nature of the artifact and how the timelines might play against one another. [5]
  • Sacrifice something or put yourself at risk in order to use the Grimoire's power. [5]
  • Make peace with the artifact (although not necessarily your future self). [5]
