supernatural/monster au character backgrounds
Tumblr media
v: it's not evil - just hungry, available for shauna/jackie/misty/nat note: full background/social and timeframe setting for verse/threads is flexible dependent on plotting with partner
Cast: Shauna the psychopomp, Jackie the siren, Natalie the dhampir, Misty the hag-touched.
Shauna Shipman: Psychopomp
A psychopomp, or in essence, a reaper, is a melancholy and misunderstood figure. Associated with death but never the cause of it, Shauna is feared all the same. She arrives at the site of death and quietly begins the work of preparing the soul for its next stage of being. She does not judge or condemn the dead, but simply makes the transition to the afterlife a little easier, perhaps a little kinder. Her hunter's knife is the scythe by which she severs the threads to the mortal plane, whether or not there is a body left to carve. It is somber, solitary work to clean up the place where a life once was, but she dutifully does her work no matter how many believe her to be a butcher.
Shauna often does not know those she is tasked with ferrying, but if she learns anything of them, she writes down details of who they once were in her journal. Much of a life is lost to time, but she tries to remember the ones she helps.
She sometimes takes the form of her young self, and sometimes she is older, but Shauna exists outside of linear time and most frequently appears to be her teenage self (even if she never really was a teenager). She can also manifest in animal forms, occasionally a deer or a flock of birds waiting just beyond the body.
Shauna doesn't appear naturally to the living, unless they have some connection to the otherworldly -- the killers, those who have had near-death experiences, and others who have witnessed a lot of death may be included in this, but there isn't an exact science to it.
Jackie Taylor: Siren
What she lacks in skill and acuity she makes up for in influence. Sirens have that sort of hold on people, after all. For the longest time, Jackie never really understood why she always got what she wanted -- she just knew the universe conspired to make it happen. It wasn't until she told a guy in high school to "go fuck himself" that she finally realized there was something more to her words and her voice. That said, not everything she says is compelling -- Jackie has learned to hone "the voice" she uses to influence and beguile. In the meantime, it doesn't hurt she's gorgeous and well-liked. And that wasn't because she forced anyone to believe it... right?
Contrary to popular belief, she's not the type of siren that people think should be related to mermaids. They're more classically bird-women, but Jackie doesn't manifest any avian traits (apart from sometimes getting really sharp manicures, but that's purely aesthetic).
Jackie is skilled in vocal mimicry and even if she's not the world's best singer, her influencing abilities can be dangerous to weak-minded individuals. If she's swapped spit with you too, she's likely to have a stronger hold. If she's silenced, gagged, made to bite her own tongue, or deafened, her powers lose their effect.
Jackie also has synesthesia and can clearly see and distinguish the source of sounds (granted that they're not overpowering -- she can be prone to overstimulation).
Natalie Scatorccio: Dhampir
A cursed child often born of a vampiric father and a human mother. A mix of both worlds, belonging to neither. Natalie has always been an outcast in every sense of the word, right down to her very biology. And as she slowly learned the truth about her parentage, things began to become clearer. As vampiric offspring are wont to do, Nat was responsible for the death of her father, but it didn't do anything to solve her own affliction. It did, however, free her mother from his thrall -- but her mother still resents her daughter for what she did, even if it was ultimately a good thing.
As a dhampir, she has a weakened mix of the strengths and vulnerabilities as a vampire (though of course, stakes to the heart and decapitation will do the trick). Natalie is prone to sunburns and is sensitive to light, but is slightly stronger, faster, and more durable than humans. Religious iconography does still impact her, though she does not need invitation over thresholds and is not weak to running water.
Her blood and bile are toxic to full-blooded vampires, and her own appetite for carnage can mostly be suppressed, but she does still need to drink blood every so often, especially when injured or weak. (This is a mix of dhampir lore sources, I don't love when they're just All Vampire Awesomeness with No Weaknesses.)
Natalie will stop aging on a human timescale when she hits adulthood, if she lives that long. In the meantime, she indulges in nightlife, intoxicants, and other experiences to try to numb the pain and distract from the fact there's nowhere she truly belongs.
Misty Quigley: Hag-touched
She wasn't born a witch, and she's not innately magical. But Misty saw the sorts of powers that existed just beyond the fingertips of most normal lives and wanted some of it for herself. For those who aren't lucky enough to have natural magic, well, there's always a hag coven. Misty found a gathering of powerful women who were willing to make a bargain and bring the blonde into their society. And Misty prefers this type of wicked handiwork to simply waving fingers and casting spells. Just... don't leave strands of hair or fingernail clippings where she can find them for her "experiments".
Inspired by various hag folklore and D&D depictions, Misty's magic is based in exchange and component value -- she excels in curses, inconveniences, and changes in fortune, but she's not entire malevolent. She isn't wholly benevolent either, extracting some sort of price from those who seek her aid. And if they don't, she just has fun making whatever mischief she can -- often targeting individuals to whom she later proposes the solution to their woes.
Also, not all hags are old and ugly -- Misty resents that idea, thank you!

dual destinies is really interesting to me because it feels like it’s almost an attempt to kind of sanitize the franchise & that’s why there’s so few references to past cases, but at the same time is literally about how the false conviction of two men sent the entire law into a state of turmoil. like you’re trying to tell me that people are getting falsely convicted left & right because people are treating law like a game to win & yet yr not going to mention how edgeworth himself was falsely convicted by his former mentor who felt the exact same way? not gonna mention how phoenix was falsely convicted thanks to another lawyer? and, like, yeah, of course not. if you know anything about aa1 it feels incredibly uncomfortable to have edgeworth prosecuting athena, which is why the game doesn’t say a single thing about what happens in aa1, but they’re still trying to insist society here is super complex and super awful, because there’s one guy on death row

@healiotrope gets a visit from Misty Quigley at Camp Green Pine
The cleanup of personal affects seemed more an effort to control and isolate than it was an effort to 'unplug' and 'reconnect with our intuitive spirits' or whatever the purple-clad cultist had just told her. Not that Natalie had ever been glued to her devices, but Misty was surprised she'd really just accept getting cut off from everyone, least of all from her best friend who was finally here to help.
Of course, there was the matter of Lottie Matthews convincing Natalie that somehow this would be good for her. Sure, Nat had been in and out of various wellness centers, but these people weren't authorized to help her. Sure, once upon a time Misty might have felt that Lottie had some charismatic, enigmatic intuition. But this was just plain cultish, no matter how much they dressed it up with purple robes and boutique farmer's market stands.
Besides, what did Lottie know about the help Natalie needed? It wasn't like they were that close, even if there were bonds from their past that only the two women could understand. Misty wasn't jealous, she was just pragmatic. Skeptical. Analytical.
"Lottie," she said, trying to disguise the impatience in her voice as her phone was surrendered after some poorly timed text messages. "Interesting place you've got here. I don't know how you've convinced Natalie that you have her best interests at heart, but I'm taking her home as soon as humanly possible. No offense."

I was silent for a while because personal life kicked my buty harder then ever, on top of that I'm in the last class of highschool and new education minister is sexist, extremaly catholic homophobe pushing his ideology to the schools in worst ways possible. I have to survive only one class and most probably medical studies (I wish to work in forensick medicine or as traumatologist) but my bro have half of education before him and situasion looks just sick. At least summertime starts so yay!
Awww Im so sorry to hear that. People with power AND obsession for religion are very dangerous for those who dont share the same beliefs. I was in a catholic school and funny enough, the director wasnt very religious, but the teachers, oh boy, they were another story. Very obsessive with making "God and Virgin Mary happy", no matter how many kid's or teen's minds they would have to crush with toxic ideologies to do so. So I kinda understand what you are going through.
Evite all confrontations and just pretend to listen but never forget who you really are. You are a brave brilliant ace person, and if the minister doesnt like it, thats their problem. If you graduate and still have your identity intact, you have won, because after high school you are an adult so it will be easier to send to hell and beyond all those who push their ideologies on you.
I wish you the best in your last two classes, I send you a lot of good vibes and hugs. I also wish the best for your brother, hope everything gets better in that school.
If you get sad, remember that you are only a few steps away from freedom! and then you will become a great doctor. Everything will be ok, as long as you keep your chin up and do your best ^^
