Hello folks. I hate to come back with this sort of thing again, but after the severe weather snap and some illness, my family is having a bit of a hard time with finances this month. I'm not good with this sort of thing, despite the fact I operate several blogs for creative writing. Ironic I know, but simply put we're in a hard spot right now and could really use the help. If you can only share, that's okay, I know things are tough for everyone right now, just every bit helps.

Thank you.

A pregen PC portrait from our pre-written Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy adventure module, FORIVA: The Angel Game.

Vi Tran, "The Gamer"

She is 26, but she’s way too small and skinny to be seen as such. Heavy bags lie under her very large eyes. Her baggy clothes, which are all merchandice from various video games, hang from her like fur on a wet dog. Short messy hair.

Of course, this is just a quickstart character for anyone who doesn't want to spend the time to make their own.

Get a full breakdown of her stats as well as more information about her charactertization under the cut, and if that interests you, consider a $5 subscription to our Patreon to download both the functional Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy rulebook and FORIVA: The Angel Game today!

Traits

1. Did You Know. . . || Choose two Knowledge skills. Gain an additional 2 Investigation Points to any investigation roll made with these skills. This character does not gain investigation points for Interpersonal rolls. 

2. Elementary! || This character has a keen eye for detail and can deduce a lot about a person just by looking at them, or at least they think they can. When meeting a new person for the first time, this character may choose to have the Narrator make a hidden Social Cues roll for you. Full Success = This character is able to guess two correct facts about this person just by looking at them. Partial Success = This character is able to guess one correct fact and one incorrect fact about this person. Failure = This character is able to guess two incorrect facts about this person. The Narrator will tell the character these facts, but will not tell them if they are true or false, and will not tell them what the result of the hidden roll was. This roll does not grant investigation points.

3. Savant || Add +2 to any investigation rolls. But a savant’s mind is a troubled place. All Composure rolls are made with at best a -2 modifier.

An extreme introvert who finds comfort and pride in understanding exactly how everything works, down to the tiniest detail. She has always had an incredible eye for detail, even the details of other people - for better or worse. Understanding social cues and nuances is extremely difficult for her, and so there are many secrets she’s accidentally revealed and many insecurities she’s accidentally called out. Unfortunately, people tended to just quietly resent her while acting polite rather than make their feelings obvious so she could improve. As she grew, people kept leaving her or exploding at her without explanation, and Vi, frustrated at people’s irrational two-facedness and vagueness, decided to ignore others entirely. If she could not understand them, she wanted nothing to do with them. She shut herself away in video games as escapism from this reality, but soon enough, she became entranced with understanding every single thing about how video games and technology as a whole works, since such craftsmanship was exact, technical, and not vague at all. She has an incredible passion for understanding everything around her and is ready to spout knowledge of her interests at any time - unfortunately, she has very few friends to share it with. 

One of her few friends is NekoLove70 on an online gaming forum, who became more and more distant from Vi in the past week. When Vi reached out, the only reply she got was “I’m trying to find the Angel”. Vi kept messaging them, but received no answer until just recently, when Neko’s father replied through the account to let Tram know that Neko was hospitalized for a severe illness, and he asked Vi to pray for her health. Vi tried to find out every detail possible about this inexplicable terror she was suddenly helpless before, and she discovered the trend of missing and hospitalized teenagers all said to have been speaking incoherently about an “Angel”.

do you prefer orbeck or griggs or maybe even rickert?

" Oh do I really have to make the choice - they have all been so kind to me. Orbeck and Griggs shared spells to me at first hand - and while Rickert preferred to be locked away, he helped me to master estoc in my own way! But also, what characters... I wished we befriended in better time."

Dark Souls 2 Gutter must have terrified her as a concept - stare down at the pit in Majula.

Seriously tell her there is a rare spell in the bottom and she would dive head first.

I feel that's great motivation in Bloodborne too to go underground XD rare gems and secrets!

Ah, when you are but a newly certified witch and have the misfortune of getting the one familiar in all the Netherrealms with a taste for parchment.
