Last night, I finished the background story for my new Malkavian. This will be my third character, and this time I'm really going to play. Honest. No, really, I swear.
Her name's Pandora. She's a five-status Malkavian with Oracular Ability, Fortune-Telling, and Cursed (epilepsy). She's also got Fugue, Short, Delicate, and oh yeah, there's not a vampire in OWBN who doesn't know who she is. (I love buying status). I may have to really work up the whole Fame bit, but considering Pandora's background and her abilities it shouldn't be hard.
She got mercury poisoning as a kid and developed epilepsy and a psychosis that made her have psychic visions. When she was older she turned away completely from religion to follow her own visions after she cracked, went insane, and was placed in a looney bin by her Evangelist parents, whom she caught doing the whole "make money off the faith-healing prophet daughter" deal. Then she got Embraced by a Malk who later committed suicide by walking outside in broad daylight (his name was Zeus). She then gave a big Fuck You to God and set about "curing" and "healing" those less fortunate. (If they were human, she killed them. If they were Kindred...umm...she just gave them predictions that occasionally maybe led to them being dead. Or really, really happy. Or something.) So she's a prophet for both good and evil, mostly good, but depending on how the ST's wanna use me, we'll see how it goes.
I think I am going to have fun with this.
