Application: Faith Devlin (Alt App)

[Angelica]

By filling in this application you declare your Out Of Character and In Character age is above 18+. Anyone found to be violating this primary rule will be removed from the guild without question. I also accept the Super Group contains themes of an adult nature and will abide by SSC Rulings listed below;

Safe: Attempts should be made to identify and prevent risks to health.
Sane: Activities should be undertaken in a sane and sensible cast of mind.
Consensual: All activities should involve the full consent of all parties involved.

Your Characters Name:
Faith Devlin@Animaniac
Her real name is Faith Chastity Hope Devlin.
In practice she'll answer to anything you choose to call her, no matter how rude. She doesn't tend to use her real name most of the time unless she feels the people she is talking to need her to for some reason. When not told to refer to herself in some way, she tends to use Toy. She's a mage, and her real name has power to it, and someone who knows her real name can trigger several of her tattoos, so she doesn't usually volunteer it.

Your Characters Gender:
Female

Your Characters Age:
About 18, she's graduated high school.
(She has no record of her birthdate. the scrap of her birth certificate that survived the fire at her orphanage held only her name)

Your (As in Player's) Date of Birth:
Oct, 1968

Your Characters Species:
Homo Sapiens (Not Homo Sapiens Magus)

Your Personal Roleplay Experience:
I've played Toon with Greg Costikyan as the GM (character: Groo the Barbarian)
I've played In Nomine with Steve Jackson

Where did you hear about House of Thorns?:
Who?

What appeals to you the most about the Guild?:
Miss Lilith.. oh wait.. did I say that out loud? Is this IC or OOC?

In what way do you see yourself contribute to the Group?
Actually, Faith hopes to gain a measure of protection from joining. But she would be happy to serve the house and it's members in anyway she can. Really, just ask her.

She's a hero, trying to work off enough of the stigma of her previous sins.. She hopes to get to heaven before her contract comes due. She has little mystical knowledge, apart from an encyclopedic and intimate knowledge of demon lore, and while she did graduate from her school, her education is not what it should be. She is a survivor tho, and mentally quick when it comes to getting out of tight scrapes and good at thinking outside the box when it comes down to the wire.

What's your characters traits; Their flaws, their strengths?
Faith is a sorceress in the old world way. She has no inate talent for the Art, so her powers come from a demon pact. This pact has three parts 1) a standard demon contract for her soul, to be claimed on her death or after 10 years, whichever comes first. 2) She has been bound to a demon she has named Cuddles (not the one that holds her contract, assumably one who owed something to that one). This demon powers her abilities, and grants her new ones as she advances in power. 3) The binding that grants her power includes a Ban, when invoked this Ban will cause the cessation of her abilities. Perhaps permanently. She cannot willing deny anyone anything she is told to do, unless it conflict with another order by someone in higher authority, or performing said action would lead to her death.

Note, she agreed to this rule, effectively giving consent to anyone who would order her, in exchange for her powers. She can say no, the magic doesn't come with a compulsion, she's just not likely to use that option.

Bans are tricky things (ask any Celtic hero) and while there is a loophole regarding authority figures.. pushing it too far could invoke the Ban, so she plays it safe. Miss Milly has taken her in to protect her, so her orders currenly over-rule others.

What position do you see your Character in the House of Thorns?
Her defaulting to Toy when referring to herself is telling. She has been the plaything of demons for most of her development, and excelled at it, she learned to relish being such. Ideally she'd want to serve the house that way... if it wasn't the fact that people keep trying to save her from that life. She's fine with that too, but will continue to serve in any capacity someone lets her.

(it's odd.. this question is asked twice.. but theres no question regarding someones background/bio/origin)

----

What times do you play?:
Whenever I can. Mid mornings to early afternoon when I work, sometimes all night when I don't

What day would be best to play your House of Thorns Character?:
I would only play a HoT character on days that end in Y

Cake or Pie?:
Pies! We made Pies!

To put it mildly, Milly supports this. Poor Faith needs to get out more.
