Dazzle

The Young Spark


Bubbly, curious, and kind, but impulsive and naive and grossly lacking in street smarts, Dazzle is a natural optimist and extrovert looking to truly experience the world for the first time after a harmfully sheltered life. She takes her wild magic in stride and wants to prove that having wild magic is not the burden everyone in her life has made it out to be. Unfortunately, it is very easy to trick or take advantage of her and while she is aware of this, he still falls into that pit when caught unawares. She strongly believes that everyone is inherently good, but driven by circumstance to do bad things.

While Dazzle generally tries to keep a cool head, she does scare a bit easily. When under significant stress or emotion she tends to have outbursts of wilf magic, which can sometimes exacerbate the problem. She wants more than anything to be brave and make her mark on the world like her idols.

B A C K S T O R Y

Born under the Infernal name Aakyetha on the wealthy island of Klienfield, Dazzle yearned to be out and about with her siblings and family. In the public eye her birth was listed as a stillbirth in order for the Alpherons to hide the physical proof of their ancient pact with Mephistopheles. Like they've done for generations with their "cursed" kin, they kept Dazzle shut up in the house and homeschooled her in order to avoid piblic "incidents" with her magic — another bloodline "curse" due to the infernal pact. The fact Dazzle was both a tiefling and carried wild magic felt particularly scornful to her parents. She was taught to ignore the immense, chaotic power within her, and was punished severely when she had wild magic surges or used any kind of innate infernal magic.

During her adolescence she would sneak out with her sympathetic sister to see the outside world. It was at this time she took the virtue name Dazzle to reflect her wild, bright magic. She became a bit of a problem child for her parents, being seen in public with Ophela without their knowledge. The abuse worsened, and she would be shut up in her room for weeks at a time. When she came of age she snuck out of the estate with the help of Ophela and never returned.

F A M I L Y

Count Syngreth Alpheron — Father. An incredibly astute wizard, one of many in the Alpheron line. He has prolific status locally, and has served on many noble's councils as an advasor of the arcane.

Countess Delia Alpheron — Mother. A terse half-elf woman, Delia manages the Alpheron's name in courts across the land to ensure their presence is not forgotten (and kept in good standing).

Ophela Alpheron — Older sister. The eldest of the Alpheron heirs, Ophela entered the College of Lore and became a prolific court orrator and public speaker. Unfortunately for her parents, she has shown no interest in the title she would inherit and instead spends her time stoking the political fires of regional courts.

Nael Alpheron — Older brother. The middle Alpheron child, Nael was always eager to please and a dutiful son. He was knighted at 17 and currently serves on his liege's guard. While he strives to do everything to keep his capricious parents' good favor, he has recently reconnected with Dazzle in secret.

Stats



Dazzle is a supporter in combat, aiding her allies from afar with fonts of inspiration and hampering theier enemies with spells. While she does have a few harmful damaging spells up her sleeve for emergancies, she uses most of her power to confuse, slow down, or otherwise impede the enemy in other ways to give her allies better chances of landing attacks. She makes liberal use of her wild magic to bend the chances in her favor.

Dazzle's newfound bardic abilities stem from her use of upbeat, empowering songs. She aims to keep spirits high and her comrades in top form.

Reference

Dazzle has a short and soft build, with short burgundy hair always seems to be slightly static-y. She likes to decorate her tail with bangles, which is one of the most emotive parts of her body and seems to constantly be moving. All of her outfits are pretty cutesy and always include arm warmers and frilled skirts, and it’s very rare she wears muted colors. Freckles cover most of her upper chest, arms, and cheeks, and she has two pairs of horns– a set that bends forward, and a smaller set beneath those that simply curve upwards.

Dazzle has lines of Infernal "singed" into her skin on the backs of her hands and around her arms that she always keeps covered with cute arm warmers/gloves or long sleeves. No matter what happens to the skin, the marks will show through. If one reads it, it states in esoteric phrasing her true infernal name and the terms of the original pact between her ancestors and Mephistopheles for magic affinity, power, and prowess.

Relationships

Name: Seer

Relationship: Maternal beacon

Bond:


Seer is the mother Dazzle never had and always yearned for. Seer's patient hand and willingness to teach resonated extremely well with Dazzle, and she very quickly became attached to her and sought her out for anything ranging from arcane knowledge, to learning to cook, to simple companionship. Dazzle especially admires Seer as a wizard, since Dazzle's educational stalling has all but barred her from pursuing a formal magical education. As far as she is concerned, she wants Seer in her life forever. Seer is also one of the only people aware of Dazzle's complicated relationship with her family.

Name: Evelyn

Relationship: Best friend

Bond:


Evelyn is a lot like Dazzle in many ways, which is likely why the two maintain such a strong friendship. Evelyn is a delicate soul with strong emotional bonds, and Dazzle understands this and is proud to be one of them. The time the two spend together is usually one-on-one which makes for a lot of dedicated bonding time, mostly spent baking since Dazzle is ravenous to learn how to cook. The two can enjoy most any hobby together, even just being in the same room doing different things is nice.

Name: Paeri

Relationship: Best friend

Bond:


Paeri safely occupies the role of "cool older sibling" to Dazzle, almost in a similar way Ophela does, though Paeri is a completely different breed of troublemaker. Dazzle feels safe and welcome around Paeri and is one of the only people that will actually let Dazzle try most anything with them (for better or for worse). One of dazzle's biggest aspirations when she left home was to get a pet, and thanks to Paeri and Del, she is now gung-ho for getting a pair of rats.

Name: Nin

Relationship: Roommate; good friend

Bond:


Nin is Dazzle's chipper roommate, and reminds her most of Ophela out of all her friends. She always knows just what to say when Dazzle is feeling down or confused, and her bright attitude never leaves a dull moment for the two. She doesn't know much about Nin personally, but they share a few hobbies and Dazzle enjoys her company nonetheless. The two's ceaseless giggling can almost always be heard from behind their door.
