Toskikov (DEFUNCT)

T
Denial, Consumption, Poison

❧ Played by AJ
Appearance: T appears as a human woman who would not look out of place at a brothel-slash-sushi shop. She's slender, not very tall, and the opposite of well-endowed but holds herself like a lady who knows what she wants and also what she's willing to give. She has long black hair (often worn up) and always wears red lipstick and eyeshadow. She always keeps her neck covered either by a high collar or a scarf and always wears sleeves -- often her clothing is red. It's pretty rare that she stands straight up, often she will slouch or lean or drape. There is a certain laziness to her gesture, but also a coil of power. Both her wrists and neck are scarred (in the rare event that you might see them) and there is a line of scars shaped like snake scales that goes from behind her right ear down her spine. No matter how much she eats she remains itty bitty in proportion.

She can also unhinge her jaw. It's kind of terrifying.

Characteristics: Obsessive, excitable, childish, greedy, compulsive, a great big fibber, manipulative, annoying, morbid, mercurial, fanciful

Likes: Tragedy, stagnation, obsession, compulsion, extremely bright colors, bitter or sour foods, sestinas, unhealthy relationships, corrupt piousness, polite fiction, Freudian concepts, feasts, conversion

Dislikes: Acceptance, actualization, sweets, limericks, monogamy, families where all the members are living, conditioning, education, altruism, true faith, monochrome, starvation, diets
Shrine: A salt lick with pretty pink salt.

Ritual: LICK THE SALT LICK.
❧ Will Take❧ Will Give
  • tears
  • anger
  • guilt
  • poison (not just "don't eat the plants without getting them blessed" but like the poison sacks some animals have)
  • rotten things (decomposing meat or vegetables)
  • admissions or confessions of secrets that revolve around false identities
  • acts of "corrupting another" (bodily or mentally)
  • lamentations
  • teeth
  • tongues
  • stomachs

  • poisons and their antidotes
  • drinking vinegar
  • temporary "iron stomach" (comes with side effect of overwhelming hunger)
  • almonds
  • mace (the spice)
  • edible underwear
  • clothes made of hemp
  • tables/chairs -- though all of her furniture has either d-rings or restraints or weird grooves perfect for bleeding someone out in, regardless of if you want that or not.
On Memory... T also has the ability to do what she calls "help" with memories. More accurately she can bury a memory, create a false memory or attach a "false feeling" to a memory you have. So, if you want to forget your asshole father? She can do that for you. If you want to bridge the gap between two memories she can fabricate a memory that fills in the gaps, so to speak. Or if you just wanted to have a fun childhood memory even if you didn't have a fun childhood, I guess. And she can make things that you remember as being awful be remembered as AWESOME EXPERIENCES :D :D :D or the other way around. Basically if it's altering or falsifying a remembered person/event/feeling she can help you out there!

Note: In general for a lot of trades like dishware and forks/knives T will do a strict weight exchange. If your dishes weigh a pound, she wants a pound of intestines. It is almost always an option for items like that.

Prices also vary! If you have a good relationship with her it is probably because you inflict or indulge in the emotional side of things (or do more of the 'acts' she accepts) and your general totals may be lower than those good upstanding citizen types.
