Or if you want the two-minute version: Karlach is a tiefling barbarian woman who got forcefully conscripted into a war in the Hells. It was a pretty bad time and she got experimented on, resulting in her heart getting replaced with an infernal machine. The machine runs INCREDIBLY HOT, meaning she's afflicted with a permanent status effect of being on fucking fire. It's also going to eventually run too hot and kill her, but let's not worry about that!
At least, she can be used to light campfires or roast things over.
Despite her experiences, Karlach is an excitable golden retriever sort of individual. Her heart is big and open and she's looking to make connections. Life's short and that's why you gotta live it!
Abilities: This might surprise you, but she is quite adept at fighting. Particularly with large weapons like great axes or great hammers or even other people if the need should arise. Sometimes you just gotta hit one guy with another guy.
She'll be getting a tattoo to keep her engine stable and from burning her up from inside. And an added bonus effect happens to be FIRE powers because hey, why not turn the direction of this into harnessing it?
PLANS
General: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ MANTA Board: Without a shadow of a doubt, Karlach is adopting one of the cats. That's going to happen and it's going to be a bit of a big ordeal for her. Everyone is going to have to put up with her crying and wailing over her sheer delight and joy at having a cat to admire. She's going to be insufferable for a while. But hey, have you seen her cat? Look at her cat!
I'm pretty much interested in everything else, but I don't have any solid plans in mind just yet.
Event: I'll toplevel and then we'll just run hog wild forward.
CR Dreams:A L L. No, really. All of it.
I would be over the moon for Karlach to be able to make more friends, more connections, and actually develop meaningful relationships. She's still pretty fresh out of a situation that didn't allow for much of that, so it's truly a luxury. Rivalries, complicated relationships, fighting buddies, whatever!
In the future, I would love for her to be able to form romantic feelings for someone! Maybe even get those feelings returned (but that's not required tbh).
