Overview
Iyaki (Ee-yah'-kai) appears to be an oni that's taken some ork reduction, she has black hair and red skin. She has a light devil motif and aesthetic, but overall seems to be amiable at the worst of times. She wears light clothing and perpetually seems to float lightly off the ground. Iyaki is a (now) free spirit of Annette's late mother, who is absolutely fascinated with Annette due to her unique nature. She spends most of her time loitering around with loose ambitions of trying to rekindle her love for magic, although she finds that it is more dangerous than anything else, and tries to limit the influence that her magic has. Her motivations lie in trying to entertain herself endlessly, and finding and destroying anything that has to do with Great Old Ones.
Her magic appears dull, or black and white, despite the lively fiery appearance of the magic. All of her magic counts as if it's done with Mentor's Mask for the purposes of visibility of the magic and assenssing.
GM Notes (Personality/Actions)
- Long story short, Iyaki is a powerful spirit that has come to hate magic like a Pariah. She pities those who are "burdened" with a "curse" such as that.
- Iyaki's loyalty to Annette doesn't necessarily reflect her attitude towards her. Lower loyalty just means she's willing to do less at that time.
- Iyaki counts as an adversary spirit, and all of her magic identifies as such.
- Iyaki is intended to be a trickster spirit that interacts with Annette as an unwanted ally spirit. Because Iyaki can't be tamed by normal mages, she primarily uses her position alongside Annette to ensure that she doesn't stray from the Pariah Tradition. Having raised her to become something of a perfect spell defense to protect Annette and herself... and an endless source of entertainment.
- Iyaki is an even tempered woman who's personality can only be described as indifferent. She enjoys watching people fumble around by the tricks she plays, and deeply enjoys masquerading around as a person.
- Iyaki deeply despises the abuse of magic by others, and actively seeks to neutralize anyone who does these things. If this is something you would like to include, have Iyaki start asking other party members if they'd like to make a deal for a chip from her. She tries not to use her magical abilities, but will if necessary.
- She supposedly has been reincarnated as a free spirit, but won't talk about her past life. Though she shows a deep hatred for eldritch influences (great old ones, planar mages, etc.)
- Iyaki will simply leave if threatened, and Annette is obligated to offer any support she can offer.
- She only offers help in the form of favors and deals due to how her chips can be repaid.
GM Notes (Pariah Spirit)
Iyaki will only use magic when one of the following conditions is met: [To be expanded on]
- Annette's life is actively threatened, and she is in danger of dying.
- A contract/agreement between her and someone has been reached as a chip she will gain from someone. She will not abuse her magical abilities, even for a chip from someone. Meaning she will not cause unnecessary harm to those who don't deserve it, or intentionally cause massive damage.
- Another mage is seen to be abusing magic (hurting innocents, causing massive damage, any toxic magic of any kind, etc.), she will be willing to join combat on behalf of the party for 1 chip from anyone within the party.
- Completely harmless uses of magic that only affect one person, and are specifically requested can be done for a chip (casting armor, placing a barrier, etc.)
- She will freely shift between her human and spirit form, though prefers to stay in human form. This is an exception to her abstinence from magic.
