Calypso Stave, the Marchessa of LSD

No more than a harmless hippy girl. (Yeah, right!)

Wide, un-focussed eyes, seemingly dazed, dressed in a palette of bright colors or else like a backpacker, festooned with oddments of jewelry, with long blonde dreads, hazel eyes. Pretty and just a bit dirty. Dazzlingly warm smile.

Attributes

Aspect#

Metahuman 1/5 Aspect Miracle Points

As a mortal, Calypso remained at peace with the limitations of your physical and mental existence. However, the Power of LSD encouraged her to go forward, to go beyond. Still, she does not like to show off.

Domain#

Marchessa 3/5 Domain Miracle Points

Her Estate agreed with her and continues to do so. It permeates her existence and they work well together. She has only gotten enNobled recently, though in Celestial time.

Realm#

Radiant 1/5 Domain Miracle Points

She considered the road her home, rather than any one fixed place. Still, she felt glad to have a fantastical place, as fantastical as her imagination, in which to dwell and took to it, even if she would not spend much time there.

Spirit#

Sunfire 3/5 Spirit Miracle Points

Despite her feckless exterior, Calypso had a resilient will. Willpower alone saved her when given LSD-Plus and sustains her now. She does not draw on it consciously though and has a tendency towards laxness, not having developed what reserves she has.

Gifts

Charismatic (1 MPs)

You can’t but help like Calypso and pretty much everyone does excepting powerful beings like other Nobles, Excrucians and Imperators and people who know she has lied to or harmed her. (Works like Glorious, except a less powerful Gift.)

Handicaps

Flaws

Distractable (1 MP)

Calypso can get pretty scatterbrained at times.

Memorable (1 MP)

Once met, never forgotten.

Virtue

Ungovernable: Calypso submits to no law but her own.

Affiliation

The Code of the Wild

Design

A ring of Heavenly Blue Morning Glory and Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds (both containing LSA, a chemical related to LSD), surrounding a three-fold design of a white violet (symbolically, “let’s take a chance”), purple carnation (capriciousness and whimsy) and a red poppy (pleasure and oblivion) against a swirling psychedelic background.

Bonds

4 Her Estate
4 Her worldwide extended family of friends and acquaintances
3 Psychedelics generally
3 Hatred of authority
3 Her familia
2 Her Imperator
1 Dance music

Anchors

(To come)

Background

During the late 1990's, by mortal reckoning, a special variant on LSD-25, called LSD-25+ (street name: Plus) circulated all over the Earth. Plus ripped apart the minds of everyone who took it or caused fatal overdoses. Because of this, Plus acquired the darkest of reputations. Only a fool would take it. The Imperator enNobled the only person foolish enough to take Plus and strong enough of spirit to have survived it. Calypso still brags of tripping balls during her Commencement, as if Commencement itself would not have expanded consciousness enough.

Calypso sees The Wicker Man (the original version) and sees it as a model for living. (The Power of Cult Movies got nettled when the remake came out, by the way. Calypso considered doing something about it, but hasn’t gotten around to it.) She consorts with fairies, because fairies are cool. She looks forward to and contributes to the collapse of shopping mall America. She hands out free tabs a lot though, making sure it stays free of additives which some dealers will add in. Calypso acts as a guardian to the most faithful and diligent prophets of LSD. She does not work towards legalizing LSD in the US or anywhere else., because by the time everyone on Earth drops acid, no rules will remain to stop them from doing it. No rules at all, anywhere.
