Character Name: Caidyn Oberon
Alias: Stardust,
R.C.C.: Pleasurer R.C.C. (pg 88, DB2)
Alignment: Unprincipled
XP Level: 3
XP Points: 4,301
Next Level @ XP: 8,601
Sentiments/Non-Humans: Has no care about anyone’s specific origin whatsoever.
Sentiments/Coalition: Knows next to nothing about the Coalition except what can be heard from word of mouth. From the sounds of it, it reminds them of countless other types of dictatorships and so far has steered clear.
Disposition: Sarcastic, dismissive and a bit of a nihilist. Overly flirtatious in stressful situations.
Insanity: Selective Traumatic Amnesia by withdrawing into Multiple Personalities.
Multiple Personalities:
Main Identity: Caidyn Oberon. Largely untrusting and considers everyone an abuser out for their own ambitions. This personality is seldom seen except by those it trusts without reservation and is the most vulnerable of all. This identity largely disassociates from the face they are a Pleasurer and what Stardust has to do through Selective Traumatic Amnesia. Though sometimes the memories of Stardust appear as nightmares.Caidyn is largely a nihilist, believing nothing that they do to escape what they are will ever work.
Second Identity: Starshot - A gun loving, sarcastic and dismissive identity that is the first main face of Caidyn Oberon. When combat erupts or a tense situation emerges, Starshot is the snappy, quick-witted and dry humor talker who is far too good at dismissing their own problems and compartmentalization.
Third Identity: Stardust – Stardust is effeminate and flamboyant, relying on Empathic Dependence and Tele-Empathy to read those around them and say the right thing, do the right thing, and make everyone happy. Stardust only appears when coerced into sexual acts and takes the brunt of the trauma for the other identities.

Racial Abilities
Awe/H.F.: ~12 when identified as a Pleasurer/Changeling
Shapeshifting:

Can assume any humanoid form, but their weight remains unchanged. Hair, fur and scales can be imitated. More importantly, the pleasurer can pick-up images in a person’s mind and take the shape of those images. Loved ones, private fantasies, and famous people are among the pleasurer' s repertoire of shapes.
Note: Disguise ability equal to 79% +2% per level of experience.

Tele-Empathy and Empathic Dependence:

Pleasurers can sense feelings and surface thoughts. This is a natural power that costs no I.S.P. points, and has a range of 100 feet (30.5 m) plus 30 feet (9. 1 m) per level of experience.
Furthermore, the character can experience the feelings of one or more people as if they were its own - happiness will make it happy, depression will make it sad, and so on. A few can reverse the "emotional charge" to feel the opposite a person is feeling, turning pain into pleasure, for example, or to experience pleasure whenever the subject feels any strong emotions, both positive and negative.
Pleasurer performers can "tune into" the mood of a crowd, receiving a super-charged surge from their feelings. The character can shut off this power at will by raising a mind block (see psionic powers), unless they have lost themselves to the emotions: 01 -60% chance, but only applicable when emotions are extremely high, or a crowd of people are lost in the emotions of the moment (such as during a concert, fight, riot, etc.).

Background Story


Caidyn Oberon was born to this life and has worked on Paradise-II as a consort of sorts. Within ‘Town’ Love, Caidyn has lived and worked at a mega-resort known as The Arium. Caidyn was one of the best at what they do and often paired with dignitaries from a number of worlds, not that Caidyn knew or cared what that meant. All these dignitaries were the same; brutes with a simple mind. Caidyn was good at doing what was asked without complaint, often receiving some of the best ratings while also recovering information for their masters.

Did Caidyn like it? In truth, Caidyn’s mind had cracked long ago. Who Caidyn was depended on the day, they were who they needed to be and nothing was a purer example of this than Caidyn’s stage name and personality, Stardust. Stardust protected the inner dreams and innocence of Caidyn, doing whatever was wanted, however they wanted with a smile. Stardust thrives off of the Empathic Dependence inherent in all Pleasurers, while Caidyn is revolted by it. Caidyn is no stranger to giving in and letting Stardust take over in many situations, believing it is an inescapable fact of life; to submit and disassociate.

When Caidyn has to fight for their life, Starshot comes out. A sarcastic, flirty and dismissive personality who shows a complete disregard for their own life; purposefully so. When Stardust engages in depravity, drugs, alcohol or lust there is a reason. A hope that eventually they may be broken enough to not be a favorite pet anymore. When Starshot engages in sarcasm and smile-driven violence, it is through a belief that maybe this time, it will be the last time. Two self-destructive personalities co-exist with Caidyn, who only sees one way out but is unable to do it.

One day, Caidyn performed too well for a dignitary of a race they still can’t properly name, book smarts was never Caidyn’s strong point.Though Caidyn never failed to say exactly what their patron wanted to hear, or do what they wanted to do; and appear to like it. So much so that this dignitary offered Caidyn a deal. He would help Caidyn escape the Pleasure Planets in return for their soul, it was a deal made in blood. Caidyn was desperate to find a way out of being what they were and thought this was it, but they were mistaken. So gravely mistaken.

Now, Caidyn’s new master, a devil they only know as Erus, owns them and their soul. Since their new life, they have traveled to countless planets and realms with Erus. Erus uses Caidyn’s abilities to weaken the resolve of other dignitaries during negotiations, regularly passing Caidyn off like a doll to be played with as its own personal, mortal succubus. Though, Erus was never shy nor kind to Caidyn, any kindness often a facade for a nightmare. Caidyn began recessing into their mind more and more, with Stardust becoming more predominant and shielding Caidyn from the trauma. Erus also has a penchant for making content, often renting out a studio on whatever planet they visited and using Caidyn to produce new content to be sold. It was quite lucrative for Erus and Caidyn quickly became an indispensable asset. Caidyn wasn’t Erus’s only pet, but apparently his favorite.

Most recently, Erus has brought Caidyn to Earth through a portal. Another negotiation, this time with Naruni and several Earth-born interests included one from the Headhunter’s Guild and Collegiate of Magic. Erus also rented out a studio in Merctown for more content; however, Caidyn was able to escape into the crowd of mercenaries. During one such negotiation, Erus had sent Caidyn to the newly rented warehouse with a small escort and this was when Caidyn made their escape. This isn’t the first time or planet where Caidyn has tried running away, and it probably won’t be the last. Every time Caidyn tries escaping and is forced to return, the following days at Erus’s hand are filled with nightmares. Caidyn escaped this time on a new planet, somewhere called Earth that they know nothing about but took what supplies and gear they could.

Now, Caidyn hops between mercenary groups. Never staying for very long and in search of something even they aren’t sure of; a sense of belonging, friendship, somewhere they can exist without fear. Though Erus is looking for them. One thing they are sure of is they will never be truly free until Erus is dealt with and they can finally break the chains of what they were made to be and find out who they can be..

Question for Chargen GM
~~
I wrote into the back story about stealing what items they could as they escaped when brought to Earth, would that help me have some basic starting gear for an R.C.C. that doesn't get starting equipment normally?

Question for anyone
~~
Please let me know if I missed anything or did something wrong. This is almost ready for review I think.

[Mad Dawg]

I like the concept and think this PC would make a great addition to any group in either the Merctown or Three Galaxies dimensions. There are only two things I would suggest editing to your sheet. This is purely cosmetic, but I recommend using lists or ordered lists for the Insanities section just to clearly separate the different personalities. (The advantage of an ordered list is that it allows you to add on other insanities to your PC if they come up.) The other thing is lock in the Charm/Impress stat similar to invoke trust. You can put that it fluctuates in the parentheses, but having a solid number makes your GM's life easier.
I hope this advice helps!
