− | + | Character Name: Michelle Rosemary Agnes Hanrahan | |
+ | Player: Squidheadjax | ||
+ | Template: Wizard | ||
+ | High Concept: Wizard Apprentice from the New Milennium | ||
+ | Invoke: To scandalize ‘old-fashioned’ types without a second thought, to ‘fit in’ in worldly social settings where an older, crustier wizard would stick out, to navigate modern social media concepts (from a distance), and to generally do (apprentice) wizardy things and support Wayne | ||
+ | Compel: To disregard good advice from tradition, to make incorrect assumptions about ancient entities based on modern values, and to scandalize ‘old-fashioned’ types without a second thought | ||
+ | Musts: Thaumaturgy, Evocation, Sight, Wizard Constitution, Soulgaze | ||
+ | Trouble Aspect: Magical Heroine Complex | ||
+ | Compel: to leap to the aid of those who seem to be in need (regardless of the reality), to grasp at straws to ‘find the good’ in various villains, to avoid realizing her limits | ||
+ | Invoke: In the rare cases when there’s actually good to bring out in a defeated or overwhelming foe, to avoid realizing her limits | ||
− | + | PHASES | |
− | + | Background: | |
− | + | The middle child of a large family, Michelle found her voice in becoming ‘the techie’ rather than some of the more classical forms of acting out. She loved the imaginitive worlds out in the internet and in computer games, and took advantage of e-publishing to remain a voracious reader. When tech around her started breaking down, she was devastated, but she remembered that one of her favorite authors had a similar problem. Four demo computers at a local Best Buy gave their lives so she could track down his literary agent (and got her banned from all the Best Buys in Chester County for life). | |
− | + | Phase Aspect: Unrequited Technophile | |
− | + | Invoke: To understand modern and advancing technology (and how to break it), to push the envelope of technology she can safely work with, to work on simpler tech (like the Winnebago) | |
− | + | Compel: To make her normal Murphyonic field extra-inconvenient; to unintentionally jinx something that would normally be safe from her (“I don’t know how but I think I broke the cellphone I was calling…”) | |
− | + | Rising Conflict: | |
− | + | And so she managed to convince his agent to pass a letter to Mr. Morrison, in which he recognized the emergence of a magical talent - and realized that he’d probably end up getting dragged into apprenticing her anyway, if she didn’t go bad from self-teaching before that. So he eventually agreed to meet with her. | |

Increasing frictions at school caused her parents to send her to a Catholic school for high school, thinking it might also help her deal with the magical ‘fantasies’ she was having around her bad luck with technology. And they weren’t entirely confident that her repeated meetings with Wayne were a good idea, even though the opportunity to get tutored by such a figure is a big deal. Out of a desire to stay connected to machines, she enrolled in the county vo-tech program as well (Brandywine Area Technical School, or BATS), and to her relief found more solid mechanics to be resistant to her Murphyonic Field (a term she derived independently, of course). | Increasing frictions at school caused her parents to send her to a Catholic school for high school, thinking it might also help her deal with the magical ‘fantasies’ she was having around her bad luck with technology.

Her circle of friends was mostly people on the fringes of school society, even though she was pretty thoroughly straitedge herself - she had an outsider’s perspective for a whole different reason. |
− | + | Phase Aspect: Proper Catholic Schoolwitch | |
− | + | Invoke: to have a little faith, to deal calmly with authority, to disarmingly conform to expectations, to fit magical actions into mundane expectations | |
− | + | Compel: to concede to authority when she should push her point, to get an incorrectly positive impression of a religious figure, to fail at social interaction with people outside her white-middleclass-Christian mileu, to have leftover teenage angst | |

This incident, at least, involved her whole family actually seeing Michelle face off against the creature to protect them. Her own barely-developed magic and lack of knowledge about the creature didn’t leave her much chance of success, but her mentor arrived in time to show off what an angry storm wizard could do. When she asked if there were wizards who protected people like that all the time, Wayne explained that the Wardens were police most of the time, but sometimes had to stand against other creatures - and from that point forward, he couldn’t talk her out of following that goal. |
