About
Flask is an incredibly gifted wizard who has magic running through their veins, to the point that they don't control quite well whenever it overflows, making plants to grow whenever they walk without protection on their hooves. They're great at brewing potions, elixirs and casting spells and charms, but due to their mischievous nature some of those may have an undesirable second effect that will affect negatively those who consume/use them. Just for funsies!
They're an itinerant potion seller that comes from Sunlight village, almost never being in the same location as they love to explore their surroundings and travel around without a clear destination in mind, just visiting different places and collecting any sort of ingredients or items for their potions, as well as anything that catches their attention (Gemstones, shiny things, buttons, bones, etc), shoving everything they find in their ever trusted bag.
Personality
Mischievous • Clever • Determined • Curious • Anxious
Flask is a mischievous goat that adores having fun, with a cheerful demeanor they love going around playing pranks on people just to have a good laugh. Troublemaker by excellence, they have the ability to get in troubles even if they don't mean to, but they don't mind as long as it all ends well. They just love fun! Rebel and very free-spirited, Flask always liked to be unique and shine on their own, doing their own thing in their own unique way to show what they're made of, they want the world to see what they're capable of.
They're energetic and emotive, always showing a great passion for the things they love and anything that catches their attention, being able to ramble about them for hours. Curiosity is one of their most characteristic traits, as they're always wanting to learn new things, know the reason behind everything and understand how the world works, finding a great love in researching, learning and trying new things. Sometimes they seem rather eccentric, especially with how they keep all of those plants on their hat and bag, but in reality everything they do has a specific reason to be.
They're determined and always has clear goals in mind, not letting others nor bad circumstances to put them down, they're a fighter who won't give up no matter how hard things can get. They're always making a plan for everything, even if sometimes they can't properly follow that plan they will always look for a workaround for it. Of a logical mindset, Flask always tries to follow the logic on everything and use their reasoning to solve problems, becoming a great strategist that can orchestate great plans and solutions.
Despite the fact that they feel almost all the emotions with great intensity, Flask is not easy to anger and something has to be really bad for them to get angry. On the other hand, they're very prone to anxiety due to their Generalized Anxiety Disorder, becoming a ball of nerves whenever it hits and even keeping them from behaving properly or doing the simplest tasks. Sometimes paranoid, they have trust issues, not being able to trust people right away, as due to how much they've experience they've seen how people can be cruel and treacherous. Atop of it, Flask has abandonment issues and is quite insecure, doubting their own abilities all the time and worrying about becoming friends with others to avoid getting hurt if they ever part away.
Due to their anxiety, Flask can be kind of scaredycat sometimes, being easy to scare and becoming scared of anything quite easily, but even then, whenever an emergency or a situation comes that threatents their life or the life of a loved one they will act brave, having a good sense of survival and doing without second thoughts what has to be done to save themselves or their loved ones from the danger.
Artistic and creative, Flask loves to express themselves through drawing, writing and crafting, whether it is by drawing their surroundings or creating a hand-made terrarium to decor their home. Their quick paced mind can be a struggle sometimes, as it makes them an overthinker and easy to fall for anxious thoughts, but it also helps them to get ideas quickly for their own creative endeavours.
Abilities
- Swimming: They're an excellent swimmer! And along with a small magic spell that creates a bubble around their muzzle (plus their goggles over their eyes) they can swim and dive through waters pretty well. It's very useful whenever they're running away and need a spot to hide, as well as when they any ingredient for their potions that can only be found underwater.
- Magic: They take pride in being a wizard and being able to do magic, casting spell, charms and creating potions for anything they can think of. They also takes this as their job, as they sell potions to people.
- Chlorokinesis: Mixed with their magic, they can make plants grow at their will, although they don't tend to use that ability that often and even tries to hide it, mainly because it's a very common ability in the village they come from and they don't like being taken as "ordinary".
- Alchemy knowledge:They couldn't pass the opportunity to study the branch that mixes magic and science. Actually, most of their elixirs they craft come from alchemy.
- Robot tinkering:Just like the rest of their village, they're very skilled when it comes to the usage of technology, knowing how to tinker with robots and being able to build and repair them, but they take that as a hobby rather than what they wanna do as a job.
Weaknesses
- Anxiety: If they are anxious, they won't be able to do anything; their magic won't work and will fail, they won't be able to think properly, they won't be able to use their potions and they will likely run away until they find a hiding spot where they can proceed to keep panicking.
- Size difference/Megalophobia: They're absolutely SCARED of anything or anyone that looks way too big, anything over 2.5 meters (8 ft) will generate them an intense phobia.
- Agoraphobia: They're scared of way too open spaces like meadows, so they avoid them.
- Overflowing Magic: Sometimes they can't control their magic flow and it will affect their surroundings, thing that affect them negatively as sometimes they end up harming people, breaking things/structures, etc. making them feel ashamed, frustrated and regretful afterwards. Same for being barefoot, they can't stop using shoes unless they're fine with leaving a plant trail wherever they step.
- Full moon: They're not able to control their magic during full moon, as it messes with it. For that reason, they have to avoid using their magic during those nights.
Likes
- Exploring. They love to get in the depth of the woods to see what they can find, same for dark caves and abandoned places.
- Abandoned places, they ADORE them! Especially if the place was reclaimed by nature, being covered in plants and with water on it. They love taking photos of that sort of places.
- Marine cryptozoology, they love the idea of weird and horrifying creatures living in the waters, so they spend a lot of time reading and researching about it.
- Magic, they find it very fun and useful and tends to rely on it.
- Collecting little things such as shiny rocks, gemstones, small pieces of whatever (switches, keys, buttons, springs, etc.), it's entertaining for them and they say that one never knows when one would need it.
- Musty smell. They don't know why, they just like when a place smells humid. Same for the smell of rain and the smell of wet dirt.
- Drinking tea, mostly herbal infusions; chamomile, lemon balm, millenary herbs, linden, etc.
- Swimming, they adore swimming! It's one of their favorite activities. If they see a mass of water there are high chances that they'll dive in.
- Ponds, they love finding ponds and natural fountains. They can spend hours sitting in front of one of those just observing the water run or any creature that lives there.
- Frogs! They adore those little fellas.
- Jumping over rocks, barks, anything! They love doing quasi parkour to move around... even if that mean that they're prone to fall down in any moment.
- They have a deep love for chao, taking seriously the act of taking care of them.
Dislikes
- Oranges, yuk. They dislike both; the fruit/juice and the artificial flavor/smell.
- Vanilla or coconut scent, they make them feel sick to their stomach.
- Sunny days and hot weather, they despise those a lot, they make them uncomfortable and antsy.
- Giant things. While they're not affected by giant creatures under the water, they have a heavy megalophobia for anything on the surface.
- Ants, flies and mosquitoes. They really despise those. Ants are everywhere, flies are insufferable and mosquitoes annoying with their buzzing and bites.
- Being flirted at, they despise flirty people, especially flirty men.
- Darkness, they don't like being in the pitch black obscurity, so they always carry glowy gems and glowy vials to illuminate their way.
- Loud noises, they make them to feel overwhelmed and anxious, prompting them to cover their ears with both of their hands.
- Aggressive, resentful or hostile people. Same for those who are dishonest, fake or refuse to communicate.
- Hypocrite people.
- Certain textures. They heavily dislike slimy stuff and can't eat spongy food.
Extra
- They crafted their staff by themselves, it serves as a magic reservoir that they utilize whenever they don't have enough energy to their own magic or when they're too anxious. They also use it around as a cane whenever they're exploring unknown surroundings to have a better balance.
- Since there's magic always flowing through their body, whenever they step somewhere without shoes (barefoot) little plants start to grow up on the ground, so they wear shoes all the time. (Unless they're performing magic and needs a direct connection with the ground). This doesn't happen on cement or tiled floors.
- Their messenger bag acts like a hammerspace where they can store whatever they want. They have the habit of collecting stuff they find pretty or nice, picking it from the ground and shoving it in their bag, as well as using it to store different materials they find for their potions and elixirs and keeping several vials, bottles and flasks with their elixirs and potions there.
- Their bag also works as a comfort object for them; if they don't have their bag nearby, they will have anxiety attacks.
- Whenever they're very happy or excited for something, they flap their hands or bounce on their spot.
- They smell like wet dirt and grass.
- They have the habit to follow creeks, just to see where they lead to. They consider it a possible adventure!
- While they are from the Sunlight Village, they love to travel around, making them a wanderer. One of their favorite places to visit is Windmill Village, so they get to see their friends Angel and Sprout.
- They like to register wherever they go, so they draw their own maps and have their own explorer notebook, in which they describe and draw the locations they visit and what they find; from anything that catches their attention to important landmarks or useful plants.
- They like to take pictures of anything that catches their attention, whether it is cute plants/mushrooms, environments, sights or even animals.
- Using their magical staff they're able to summon rain, whether it is just over a specific target or in an entire area around them.
- The way that fullmoon messes with their magic is that it maes it go haywire, out of control, resulting in moss and other plants growing on Flask's body without control. Usually, it's just a few leaves and flowers here and there, but when their magic goes out of control, they get covered in plants, moss, vines and flowers, making it difficult to move and becoming horribly itchy. Flask is horribly scared of this.
- They own a Mystic Melody Flute, item they use not only to explore mystical places, but also to find lost chao and help them to return where they belong, taking them to their respective chao garden or respective owner. (They don't let the owner to see them, they just takes the chao nearby the owner and encourages it to approach on its own)
- They tend to get hurt a lot and has various scars on their body, but since they don't like dealing with injuries, they use their magic to make the them heal almost immediately.
- The potion they always carry on their belt is actually a soothing anti-anxiety potion that they use whenever their anxiety is too much to handle. They're lowkey dependent to it and will always try to keep it nearby.
- They like to crouch in front of ponds to see what they can find. Whenever they find tadpoles, they feel like they hit jackpot. They love seeing those little things.
- Their magic is heavily influenced by their moods, reflecting it into the reactions of the plants in their body: If they're angry, vines with spikes will grow from them,if they're anxious, itchy moss will cover their skin, if they're surprised/startled/excited various leaves will pop and fall from them, if they're extremely happy, various flowers will bloom from them, and so on.
Companion
Pond the Chao
Pond is Flask's companion, they go anywhere together and are inseparable. Flask found his egg in one of their expeditions and kept it, raising it with all the love they could give him. Pond acts like a conscience to Flask sometimes, whispering into their ear whenever they're getting too far... although Flask might not listen to him if they're actually set in their goal.
Whenever Flask is going through an anxiety attack, Pond will comfort them and give them reassurance, hugging each other and telling them that everything will be okay. Flask, on the other hand, does their best in taking care of Pond, giving him everything he needs, feeding him with the best fruits and giving him all of their love.
Best Friend
Sprout the Goat
Sprout and Flask are childhood friends, knowing each other since they were very little. Flask ADORES annoying Sprout as much as they can, and while Sprout doesn't appreciate that, they're still fond of Flask because of how much they help them whenever they need it and how Flask has shown them that deep down they care about them. Flask might be annoying and mischievous, but Sprout knows that when things get bad they can count of Flask for anything they need; from teaching them something new to helping them to get out of troubles, as they tend to get in troubles... a lot.
They share a strong bond and know they can trust in each other, in fact, Sprout is one of the very few people that Flask trust blindly and without hesitation.
Frenemies
Jackie-o-lantern
They're Jackie's best friend and rival, these two love to compete all the time to see how can be a more powerful wizard, while also teaming up to play the most awful pranks. Flask is by themselves very mischievous, but Jackie definitely brings the worst out of them, they're a horrible influence on Flask.
Flask is aware of this, which is why sometimes they try to avoid Jackie, but the pumpkin is so persuasive that they end up convincing Flask to tag along to cause troubles.
Both of them have lots of fun together despite the fact that sometimes things don't come out as well as they plan. Jackie is the typical "bad friend" to Flask.
Buddies
Big the Cat
Flask ADORES that cat! He's almost the only exception for their megalophobia and it's because of how relaxed, calm and fluffy big is, giving them comfort whenever they're around him. They love to talk with him and take naps over his belly, while Big enjoys the company and the nice talk. Flask met Big when they were following the river on Mystic Ruins until they arrived to his home and decided to join him; they've been visiting him ever since. They don't know that Big is dating Sprout, but they don't have romantic intentions with Big, to them, Big is just their comfort buddy.
No matter the level of anxiety that Flask is having, it all disappears when they're with Big, hugging him or simply leaning on him while they talk or fish, spending hours together just chilling.
