Orphélise 'Lisette' Anthylli, Silvanesti Fey'ri (Re-skinned Tiefling) Twilight Cleric/Lunar Sorcerer

[astronavigatrix]

Orphélise 'Lisette' Anthylli
Silvanesti Fey'ri (Re-skinned Tiefling) Twilight Cleric/Lunar Sorcerer

Name: Orphélise 'Lisette' Anthylli

Character Concept: Lisette's whole Vibe is basically meant to evoke the Onna-bugeisha/Shrine Maiden archetype from Japanese media, down to her weapon of choice. Her power set, on the other hand, is a play on the 'Ill-met by moonlight' line from A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Race, Background, Subclass Class: Silvanesti Fey'ri (Tiefling Reskin) Twilight Cleric/Moon Sorcerer

Description: Orphélise is slight in comparison to her siblings and mother, only a couple of inches over five feet in comparison to their nearly six foot spans. She shares their willowy frames and delicate facial structures- though hers is markedly sharper in the cheekbones and jaw, and has the addition of a short pair of horns that she disguises with the thick fall of her hair. However, where her siblings and mother are all dark-haired and tan-skinned, she is lavender in hue, with spots of black along her neck and shoulders, as well as creeping up her hands and feet and up the tip of the long tail she hides beneath her skirts. She has pale, lilac hair that darkens to an almost black shade of violet near the tips. Her eyes are a faint opalescent silver shade, with a slightly darker iris and the faint shadow of a slit pupil in a startling pale violet.

Her clothing is designed for mobility. She wears a white slip beneath her chain mail, and an elegant, thin black dress with a mandarin collar and a sweetheart keyhole cut front over it to disguise it. The slip is slit high on one side, while the dress, fastened over the mail, has slits up both sides. She wears white breeches over the bottom of her mail, and black leather boots that come up well past the knee. She also usually wears a sleeved white shawl whose sleeves are dyed and embroidered to resemble the deep violet of the night sky, and what appears to be a shimmering lilac train is in fact a pair of rather useless, dragonfly-like wings.

Lineage, Background, Planned Multiclass: Lisette is a Tiefling born to a Silvanesti family with the Far Traveler background, and intending to multiclass into Lunar Sorcerer around level 4.

Your Character’s Plothook: 5- Ispin spent a season with your family and taught you swordplay, sailing, a language, or another skill.

Past is Prologue: The night before her 17th birthday, Ophélise Anthylli woke up screaming.

In her dreams, an inescapable, unknowable something rolled over the land, consuming everything in its wake before turning its nebulous, malicious 'face' upon her. She awoke just as the smoky maw opened wide to consume her, starlight gleaming in the room from the palms of the hands she'd raised in her sleep to try futilely to protect herself. When her siblings stormed into her room, expecting an intruder, they found little more than their suddenly-glowing sister, shaking still in the wake of that palpable terror.

Though Lisette had always been a child attuned to nature and the stars specifically, visions had never been one of her gifts. Through trial and error, her family came to realize that the vision was in fact a vision and not simply a young girl's nightmare. Regardless, she was apprenticed to a cleric, one who often found herself moving between their homeland and Khorvaire, in order to better attempt to discover the source of Lisette's newfound powers. For the next couple of years, she studied under her teacher until she had another dream.

In it, she was in the midst of traveling- though to where she did not know- watching a coin flip in the air as a call was made- she never saw which side it landed on.

Late that same year, Lisette decided to set off to unknown lands, seeking whatever it was her visions were leading her towards. However, she never got far. Word of the dragon armies reached her, and though she did not return home in time to help defend her home, she did arrive in time to help her family escape. Once assured they would be safe, she set off once more, certain now that her vision meant she must continue her journey.

After all, what more a consuming force than the dragon queen herself could her dreams have warned her of all this time?

Truths, Rumors, and Lies:

Include at least two of the following in your application-
Connections- 

• Layla Anthylli: sorceress and scholar, as have been most in their family going back as far as they have records of. Though busy attempting to work her way to further raise their family in their society- hoping to be only the second of their family to do so- she is a doting if somewhat absent mother. However, she has little tolerance for slacking, and even in her absence, her children have always been expected to work hard and study, in order to aspire to heights as high as their mother. Unfortunately, only one of her children has any magical inclination, and to her chagrin, her youngest daughter aspires not to power or infamy, but to charity.
• Melanthios and Melainotte Anthylli: Lisette's got two older siblings who are, to her slight irritation, seemingly intent on making up for their mother's absence by being overprotective. As a child, their sister was teased to not end for her unusual coloration, though as she grew older, such things fell by the wayside in the face of her playful good-will and persistent kindness. It has left both of her siblings however, wary of anyone and everyone who attempts to approach their sister. Melanthios, surprisingly, is the more reasonable one, eventually learning to trust his sister's ability to take care of herself. Melainotte, on the other hand, persists in treating her younger sister like a child and someone to keep watch over despite her protests.
  
  Even more recently, with Melantios courting someone on top of his efforts into working with magical tools and Melainotte running a squadron of hunters, her siblings always insisted on making time to speak to her when they can. However, with her departure from their homeland, the only reminder she has of her siblings is the small locket she has with their family portrait contained therein.

Mage of High Sorcery Background

Skill Proficiencies: Arcana, History
Languages: Silvanesti, Draconic (Two of your choice)
Equipment: A bottle of colored ink, an ink pen, a set of common clothes, and a pouch containing 10 gp

Feature: Initiate of High Sorcery

   You gain the Initiate of High Sorcery feat.

   In addition, the Mages of High Sorcery provide you with free, modest lodging and food indefinitely at any occupied Tower of High Sorcery and for one night at the home of an organization member.

Building a Mage of High Sorcery Character

   Mages of High Sorcery are typically sorcerers, warlocks, or wizards and might have any subclass. Spellcasters who gain their magic through devotion are less likely to be welcomed among the traditionalist mages. Nevertheless, the Mages of High Sorcery are shrewd, and they rarely let unique opportunities or individuals pass them by. Even members of martial classes who train in magic might find a rare place among the group’s three orders.

   Mage of High Sorcery Trinkets. When you make your character, roll once on the Mage of High Sorcery Trinkets table instead of on the Trinkets table in the Player’s Handbook for your starting trinket.

Mage of High Sorcery Trinkets

Starting Equipment

• Holy symbol (reliquary)

L1. Bonus Proficiency

    You gain proficiency with martial weapons and heavy armor.

L1. Vigilant Blessing

   The night has taught you to be vigilant. As an action, you give one creature you touch (including possibly yourself) advantage on the next initiative roll the creature makes. This benefit ends immediately after the roll or if you use this feature again.

L1. Eyes of Night

   You can see through the deepest gloom. You have darkvision out to a range of 300 feet. In that radius, you can see in dim light as if it were bright light and in darkness as if it were dim light. As an action, you can magically share the darkvi­sion of this feature with willing creatures you can see within 10 feet of you, up to a number of crea­tures equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of one creature). The shared darkvision lasts for 1 hour. Once you share it, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a spell slot of any level to share it again.

 

Spell Slots

   The Cleric table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your bard spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

   For example, if you know the 1st-level spell cure wounds and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast cure wounds using either slot.

Preparing and Casting Spells

    The Cleric table show s how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher.

    To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of cleric spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the cleric spell list. When you do so, choose a number of cleric spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your cleric level (minimum of one spell).

    The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Domain Spells

    Each domain has a list of spells—its domain spells— that you gain at the cleric levels noted in the domain description. Once you gain a domain spell, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you have a domain spell that doesn’t appear on the cleric spell list, the spell is nonetheless a cleric spell for you.

Spellcasting Ability

   Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your cleric spells. The power of your spells comes from your devotion to your deity. You use your Wisdom whenever a cleric spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a cleric spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

Ritual Casting

   You can cast a cleric spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell prepared.

Spellcasting Focus

   You can use a holy symbol (found in chapter 5) as a spellcasting focus for your cleric spells.

Oh, oops, my bad! I'll give those a little look then and see if any fit and if not I'll rework it! It's not that big a deal in the long run~!

Oh! I forgot! This is a great app, and I like the backstory and description. Great art, too! Marked reviewed.
