Profile
The group healer and mom friend, Dodona wants nothing more than for her community to come back to her safely so she can patch up their wounds and make sure they're okay—physically and emotionally. Despite a reputation for being overly-anxious and panicking over people's dangerous decisions, Dodona is an extremely competent doctor and caretaker. She's become a pillar of her community, looked to for comfort and care and guidance, but she has an extremely difficult time seeing her own value after a lifetime of doing her work without appreciation.
i'll type out a summary but look at the larp i'm in
This art probably showcases her best "default" outfit, but she has a big wardrobe! Despite most of her current gallery featuring a witch hat, she wears more hair kerchiefs. Feel free to experiment with outfits and mix and match from different references, especially if you can put them together in her dress up game!
- Has gold freckles scattered across her face.
- Generally just very glittery.
- Anxious
- High-strung
- Compassionate
- Lonely
- Optimistic
- Kind
- Incompetent. Those who have only seen her freaking out over whatever nonsense the day has brought may assume otherwise, but Dodona is extremely good at her job; she's a magnificent healer with a wealth of practical knowledge and a remarkable bedside manner, always eager and happy and able to support those in need.
- Coping very well
- Vulnerable
- A combatant. On a practical level, Dodona has no fighting skills—and lingering effects of her illness mean that even if she learned, she would never have the strength or stamina to well and truly follow through. At the same time, she's very aware of the reputation she's trying to build: having a healer running around with a knife leaves question as to what she's doing and what her priorities are; she wants everyone to know that they come to her for healing, before and besides all else. If she's there, she's there to help. The presence of a weapon throws that into doubt, in however small a way.
- Healing:
- Magic: Dodona knows a vast array of spells that allow her to near-instantly heal wounds, restore life energy, and cure illness.
- First Aid: Of course, as a medical professional, Dodona has a reasonable enough repertoire of basic first aid knowledge, though she relies heavily on her magical abilities for treatment.
- Divining: While members of any other witch clan are impressed by Dodona's ability to scry into the future, Dodona considers herself real bad at it—and, admittedly, her skills pale in comparison to basically any other Watcher. Though she focused her studies elsewhere, every Watcher is taught to read the stars, and Dodona is still perfectly capable of doing some reading int othe future.
- Other Magic:
- Charms: Dodona's specialty, as it were, is Ascendant Sigil; if someone carries one of her sigils, a wound that may have been fatal will recover itself at the last moment and bring the bearer back up with just a little life to spare.
- Potions: Naturally, her specialty is healing potions, home-brewed.

- Jupiter. Though not strictly an item, her familiar deserves mention. A lion wandered into the infirmary one day and simply opted not to leave, and no one can really do anything about it—but Dodona, who dubbed him Jupiter, is simply adored by him. He listens to every word she says, and would never do anything that might upset her, even though he's happy to help others who come through the infirmary. Docile, patient, and sweet, he'll allow anyone to pet him, play with him, or just scream into his fur. He's the local therapy lion!
- Magic staff. She doesn't always carry it, as it's large and a little bulky, but it acts as a symbol of her status as a healer and a conduit through which to cast.
