Our second session in the Waterdhavian Unusuals campaign is on Sunday, so as a special treat, here's the character sheet for my sig-other's character, Daisy:
------------------------------------------------------
Daisy and Dolf de Jumeau were born to wealthy parents, whose anxiety over their inability to conceive had begun to take over their lives. Despite their money and prominence in their town, they had no heirs and greatly feared that their lands and wealth would be lost without a new generation to continue the family.
Their concern was much eased by the birth of two healthy infants. Still, something strange had taken place during their birth. In the middle of their labour, their mother’s eyes had taken on a strange, unearthly green light and she had grasped the hand of the mid-wife in an iron grip:
“Herein is born the one who shall bring glory to this family. This one shall help bring about the downfall of great evil, bringing strength to your name.”
All present agreed that this had been a strange and blessed omen – one that indicated great glory for their family in years to come. Moments later, when the twins were born, they realized that they had been doubly blessed – in addition to the new heir, Dolf, who they immediately knew must be the one in the prophecy, there was his twin, Daisy.
Daisy and Dolf were always extremely close and were each other’s chief playmates growing up. Physically, they share few similarities, beyond dark hair and eyes.
Dolf is tall and muscular. However, his imposing stature belies his gentle nature – and the sharp wit and intelligence he uses to promote his and his sister’s interests. Since the family knew that Dolf would have an important future, he was given the best education money could buy.
Daisy, who definitely does not share her brother’s high intelligence, is slim, lovely and of a trusting nature. Daisy was taught good womanly accomplishments such as needlepoint, knitting and cooking. On the surface, Daisy is the perfect example of a the “fair maiden” perpetually in need of rescuing.
Just as Dolf’s brutish looks disguise his great intellect, Daisy’s long hair and rosy cheeks hide the heart of a berserker. Fiercely protective of her beloved brother, Daisy has been known to fly into terrible rages and to wreak great havoc. Using whatever articles are at hand, or the axe her brother has habitually carried for her, it is Daisy who is likely to be the one to start – and end – any fight.
Travelling together to “see the world”, Daisy and Dolf look out for one another. Often, Dolf’s appearance and his ability to ease most situations with wit and diplomacy have kept them out of trouble. When that hasn’t sufficed, Daisy, slow to anger but explosive when provoked, has kept them safe.
Dolf takes his guardianship of Daisy seriously, knowing that he, or a trusted friend must always be there to make sure that no one takes advantage of his sweet, but deadly sister.
