About: Faulkner is from a world of gods and monsters, ruled by powerful corporations that harness divine energy for their own ends.

He’s spent most of his life chasing the idea of being a Great Man… while failing to even be a good one.

He’s desperate for attention, purpose and meaning. Unfortunately, up until recently that meaning was leading a dangerous crab themed cult dedicated to an outlawed, eldritch river deity. It didn’t go particularly well for him.

He’s taking his arrival here as the opportunity to reinvent himself, and to try to be a better person. So far it’s not actually going terribly.


PLANS

General: I want him to get his plant magic tattoo this month, so he’ll probably be trying to figure out using it! And I’d love to do something with people maybe helping with that.

Honestly in general things are looking up for him way more than he expected: he has a volunteer job and a weird dog and he’s been going on dates with a very nice bird-man.

I’d love for him to keep getting more CR, and keep getting positive reinforcement for acting like a relatively normal human being.

That said, it could honestly be fun to get him some less positive CR too! People are free to dislike this strange little man, it’ll stress him out deeply and that’ll be fun for me.

MANTA Board: Not sure if I’ll be doing a ton of MANTA board; he might try the glass blowing, and he might try the painting. That one would be fun because street/abstract art is frowned upon and dangerous in his setting! But he might have a good time if he gets past that.

He might also try to help with the whale memorial.

Event: He is going to feel some ways about the whole ‘human sacrifice for a god’ thing. Reminds him of home! That’s… not actually a good thing.

On the one hand: he gets it, he’s been on the other side of it. But also when someone is trying to sacrifice you you do, often, have to kill them first. As one does. He might harm some snails.

He might also try to talk them down with some kind of bitter speech about how their goddess doesn’t actually care about them and then resort to violence.

In general he hasn’t gotten violent in Esco, so that could just be interesting potentially.
