• In combat or while adventuring, she wears mage robes and boots like the ones in her main ref
• She uses this staff

Character Notes

History:

• Her birth mom was a city elf who wasn't ready for kids, so Mo was raised by her dad and his new (fully human) family.

Other Info:

• Associated tarot card is The Tower
• She HATES being human-passing and gets angry when folks assume she's pure human (she chose her short hairstyle in hopes of making her larger-than-average ears more noticeable)
• She's super bitter towards her step mom and half siblings but was on mostly good terms with her dad
• She became a blood mage mostly out of spite, with the help of a spirit (NOT demon!!) of individuality
  • Later accidentally gets possessed by said spirit -- they're both distressed about it at first, but they quickly learn to share a body and make rather a good team once they've adjusted
• When she's not using blood magic, she mostly uses fire magic
• Varric calls her Prickles because she's "like a rosebush -- pretty on the outside, painful if you stick your hand in"
• Aggressive towards enemies and virtually anyone affiliated with the Chantry. Snarky towards most allies and potential allies. Gentle and kind towards Merrill and cats.
  • You've heard of "red/blue/purple Hawke", get ready for... whatever the heck this is.
