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 intestines saliva your sense of taste (for a while) gastric juices vomit	Forks/Knives/Spoons/Plates/utensils for eating basically 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!
"❧ Exchange Rate
Items to Units Worth Offering 1-3 Units Admissions or confessions of secrets that revolve around false identities 2 Units --These are bonuses earned with an action-- Anger or Guilt Tears A lamentation (can also be its own offering) 3 Units Giving up your sense of taste for a while 1 cup of tears 3-5 Units Acts of corrupting another Acts of corrupting yourself Units to Items Cost Reward 1 Unit almonds, mace, drinking vinegar in small portions 2 Units 1 dish set (a small bowl, a large plate & a small plate) 1 cutlery set (a spork, a teaspoon, a butter knife, a fork) 3 Units An item of clothing 1 better cutlery set (cutlery set + steak knife, chopsticks, soup spoon) 4 Units Antidote or poison 5 Units A table Two chairs 6 Units Iron stomach 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.

Why not tell me what you would like for all at once and what you would like for half now, half later?

Re: Day 32 - morning

[oi_theoi]

The strongest thing you can offer me is an act of corruption, you know . . .? But for twelve . . . I'd have to be pretty impressed by wickedness. Two impressive acts, naturally.

. . . but are you the kind to dislike that?

Re: Day 32 - morning

[lostontheroadoflife]

It's not really my sort of task, no.

Maybe break it down into four or more, as needed.

Re: Day 32 - morning

[oi_theoi]

[ debates ]

Are you willing to bear a corruption yourself, perhaps?

Re: Day 32 - morning

[lostontheroadoflife]

... as long as it won't kill me straight-off... I think I could manage.

Re: Day 32 - morning

[oi_theoi]

Of course not. I'm not interested in death.

[ pulls out four small red pills -- each one is a slightly different shade, if that helps -- ]

Oh, here is choice. You would like that, yes? An ounce of wickedness may make this easier on you. Use all four, or give some to others it doesn't matter. I don't recommend all at once, of course . . . And then return to me.

[ :)!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS A SAFE DECISION ]

Re: Day 32 - morning

[lostontheroadoflife]

[. . . so very safe right now.

eyes those pills for a moment before holding out a hand to take them]

I'd rather know for myself the kind of god you are.

[before anyone else he knows comes across this sort of thing...]

Re: Day 32 - morning

[oi_theoi]

I'm 'T', it's wicked obvious.

[ drops them in his hand.

one pill causes RAVENOUS HUNGER for like 6 hours. one pill causes fever and slight delirium for four hours. one pill causes nausea, vomiting and the shakes for two hours. and the last pill causes uncoordinated movements - slight numbness/paralysis of extremities and blurry vision for six hours. ]

[eighteen hours of FUNTIMES]

Dubious to meet you, T.

I'll be back to collect soon.

Re: Day 32 - morning

[oi_theoi]

I can't wait.
