Description

Oswald, Mr Mud to Cyntheria, is an eerie and peculiar poppet doll, standing at just two feet tall. His appearance is that of a finely crafted porcelain doll, but the ravages of time and the swamp have left him with cracked features and weathered paint. Hollow, blue light glows from the empty sockets that once held eyes, reflecting the ancient magic that animates him. Despite his eerie exterior, there is a somber sense of wisdom and a touch of innocence in his expression.

Cyntheria is a young girl with an ethereal and haunting presence, her appearance evoking a sense of both wonder and melancholy. She appears as a spectral figure, draped in flowing, faded garments. Her eyes, a striking shade of azure, hold a mixture of innocence and haunting pain.

Her translucent form moves gracefully, like a gentle breeze through a meadow, and her spectral aura radiates a soft, calming light. Cyntheria's ethereal hair seems to float around her, cascading like a waterfall of shimmering moonlight. Despite her ghostly appearance, there is a warmth and kindness that emanates from her spirit, drawing others in with a gentle pull.

Personality

Once a malevolent entity, Oswald has undergone a profound transformation after his death and subsequent mummification as a doll. He now bears the characteristics of a repentant and conflicted soul. Despite his haunting past, Oswald's heart is filled with remorse and a longing for redemption. He carries a constant sense of guilt but is driven to protect and aid those he encounters, including Cyntheria, the young girl he once belonged to.

Cyntheria's bond with Mr Mud is profound and enduring, transcending the boundaries of life and death. Cyntheria's gentle presence serves as a guiding light for Oswald's path to redemption, while he, in turn, becomes her unwavering protector and companion. Together, they forge an unbreakable bond, intertwining their destinies in a quest to find meaning, redemption, and solace in a world full of wonders and shadows.

Background

Oswald's tale begins in an ancient era where dark magic and malevolence roamed freely. He was once a malevolent spirit trapped within a cursed doll, causing fear and chaos wherever he went. He was eventually bound and made lifeless by a group of wizards. Eons passed and the wizard Ekul discoverd the doll and re-animated it for his niece, Cyntheria. A young girl with a pure heart.

Oswald saw his life with Cyntheria as another opportunity to grow his power and wreck havok on the world. She however saw past his malevolence and sensed a tormented soul within. With her innate kindness she slowly managed to befriednd the malevolent poppet. The bond between the two grew strong, and Oswald's malevolence began to wane, replaced by a newfound sense of attachment and protection toward Cyntheria. However, the poppet was still incredibly selfish and took perverse pressure in bringing misery to others.

Tragedy struck when some dangerous men, whom Oswald had made to suffer great pain and loss, took their revenged. They set Cyntheria's house on fire as she slept and stole the doll. Oswald's spirit, still trapped within the doll, was thrown into a murky swamp where he eventually became mummified by the elements. In a twist of fate, Cyntheria's spirit was unable to move on, and she transformed into a phantom, forever bound to the mortal plane. It was in this state that she rediscovered Oswald, but his spirit was locked in a half death.

Oswald has been reawakened by <insert name> and carries the burden of his malevolent past, seeking redemption and a chance to make amends for his wicked actions. His bond with Cyntheria remains unbroken, and he seeks to protect her and guide her through their shared journey. With the weight of guilt upon his shoulders reinforced by Ekul, Oswald is driven to right the wrongs of his past and bring light to a world that once knew darkness. Together, Oswald and Cyntheria forge a unique partnership, their shared experiences binding them in a quest for redemption and the hope of a better future.

So your character is the doll and the eidelon is the ghostly girl? That's wonderful. I'm always surprised at just how flexible PF2e rules are when it comes to creating a concept.

Who reawakened Oswald in the end? I'm looking for more NPCs to link to your characters.
