The host of the tournament! Feel free to simplify her design or make minor tweaks to her personality as best suits your entries.
“Death always takes its due.”
Name: Blanca Rincon
Nickname: None
Species: Gazelle Shifter
Age: At least over a century old, mentally the equivalent of being in her late twenties. She’s vague on the exact years.
Gender: Female (she/her)
Height/Weight: 5’4, 115 pounds. She’s slight and skinny, but stronger than she looks.
Reason for entering: N/A
Memento: N/A
Strengths: Extensive knowledge of plants.
Blanca knows everything about all the flora (and fauna) in her domain, from how to make them thrive to keeping them under control. This makes it all the more distressing to her that the corruption has now turned them aggressive and wild.
Quick on her feet.
As a gazelle shifter, Blanca is speedy and sure of her footing. She can nimbly dodge many attacks and hazards.
Abilities: Shapeshifting.
Blanca is capable of turning into her full gazelle form and back at will, and can remain in this form as long as she chooses. She cannot physically speak, but she can communicate telepathically as a gazelle (but not in her bipedal form).
Communion with her constructs.
Blanca see through her constructs’ eyes, feel what they feel, and bid them to do whatever she wishes. They cannot hide anything from her, not that they would want to; she made them to be simple creatures and they lack true souls.
You may invent other abilities for her as needed for your rounds.
Weaknesses: She is especially weak to fire; it causes her more pain and damage than it would a normal person.
The cold slows her down and makes it harder for her to think.
Her bones are brittle and more easily broken than usual.
She is terrified of being underground; if she feels like she’s going to be forced under the earth, or if she actually is, she will panic and freeze up until out of the situation or snapped out of it.
Personality: Blanca is a tad morbid and generally a solemn sort, but she smiles from time to time, usually about plants or interesting diseases. She is quite direct when she speaks, but usually polite about it.
History: Blanca has tended the Endgrove ever since she came of age. Her loyalty to her duties has caused her to remain, despite the costs.
She revived and took charge of Caesarion with the last mature resurrection bloom, in return for a favor from the woman who gave him to her, Alice. While Blanca has authority over him, Caesarion can still disobey her orders at times or act on his own initiative.
Hurvy came from a seed imported to the Endgrove, and to Blanca’s surprise he attained sapience as he grew. She then made him a full employee.
Likes: Plants, diseases, people who tell her stories and new things.
Dislikes: Excessive noise, pests that eat her plants, clowns (she’s not afraid of them, she just doesn’t like them).
