  1. January 2018 Freedom City Great Bay Aquaria was alone tonight, resting on the shores of Great Bay as she looked up at the silent stars overhead. It was a holy night, a night of great alignments and portents - a night that in old days would have meant a hunt for a pod of dolphins or perhaps a great whale, and then a great feast to follow among all of the tribe. Given the time of year and her age, she'd have probably killed a beast herself, bathed in its guts beneath the light of the Moon, and fed scraps to the healthiest of her children. But instead she was alone tonight, several days swimming or more from the nearest Deep Ones, with the promise of her rubber and plastic bed at home when the morning came. She had a special mission tonight, a mission that required solitude. The alignments of this day would give power to all who sang the Names of the Gods Below or the creatures who dwelt in Sea of Stars - a power that on the Surface was usually taken by madmen and cultists, twisted creatures whose plans to summon avatars of Dagon and Hydra would only bring pain and suffering to gods and creatures alike. The blasphemers would take the names of the gods and use them in vain, and do nothing but bring contempt to every being like her. She was waiting in this sacred spot on the beach, a spot sanctified during the Archevil invasion before she'd even set foot on Freedom City's shores, for Surfacer cultists to arrive. If one did come, she had big plans, oh yes. Her armor was stored safely beneath her on the beach, cunningly buried beneath the sand - she squatted on her haunches before a fire she'd kindled, the light reflected in her great dark eyes, and began to sing in a bellowing, resonate bass, just loud enough that any creature on the beach would be sure to hear her.
  2. Delirium Power Level: 10 (150/151) Unspent Power Points: 1 Trade-offs: None In Brief: A stargazing author has the stars gaze back at her. Catchphrase: "Stars aligned!" Theme: Alternate Identity: Valerie Major (secret) Birthplace: Boston, Massachusetts Residence: Freedom City, New Jersey Base of Operations: Occupation: Author Affiliations: Family: Description Age: 34 (born January 1984) Apparent Age: mid to late twenties Gender: Female Ethnicity: Irish-American Height: 5'7" Weight: 119 pounds Eyes: white (originally green) Hair: a mixture of red, blue, and yellow (originally blonde) Valerie has a tall and lean build with an hour glass figure. Her skin is a fair white tone. She has patches of freckles all around. Her hair is long and messy, she can never get it straight. Her eyes are star white. If you get close enough, you can see mini star fields in them. Age has treated her well as she looks about ten years younger than her age. She has a tattoo of a dream catcher under her chest, over her heart. She has several different star tattoos on her left shoulder and the top part of her arm. Her ears, tongue and right nipple are pierced. She wears conservative business clothing when out and about promoting her latest book. Though casually she wears colorful long flowing skirts, sleeveless athletic shirts, and no shoes if she can get away with it. Her costume is made of black leather. Boots, pants, belt, and chest piece. Her mask is made of morphic molecules and looks like a domino mask with no eye holes. History Ever since she was young, Valerie looked to the stars. She loved the idea of space and would longingly gaze into it at night, not knowing it was staring right back at her. She excelled in math and science, but really her joy was speaking and writing. She could have been an excellent scientist, but that's the way it goes. Besides, she enjoyed science fiction too much. There was always something in the back of her head that told her there was some truth in these fictions. During her high school years she took up a witchcraft trend that followed astrology and magic. She wanted to fit in somewhere. Not popular he was just some mousy girl with a big voice that got her in trouble. But the more she learned, the more it lined up with her thoughts about the stars. So she followed the group and wrote a small book about her learnings. Her friends pitched in ideas and made a fictionalized story out of it. The book was called 'Magical Star Kingdoms' and her (technically their) pseudonym was Starchild. It got Valerie fired up about doing it again. The next few books were basically dolled up horror stories with her learnings about astrology and and weird science. It was very lucrative. By the time she got out of high school she had enough to pay for college on her own. She majored in writing and math, simple courses she breezed through. After her bachelors' were done, she went back home. She continued her studies on her own about the stars and magic and science and stories that lined up with them. Some called her a conspiracy theorist with the mad things she learned. She didn't care. She was getting closer to the truth. But she didn't know how close she was. The being that had been watching Valerie her whole life decided to harvest its crop one fateful night. She was reading something chthonian and new what lie beneath the text. The true answers to all these folly questions. And then it hit her, full force, and consumed her mind and soul, wearing her like a husk. It wrote down everything she needed to know about her lot in life now. That she was the host of something unspeakable, unknowable entity. It charged her to bring justice, fair and balanced, to the human race. She would be the judge, jury, and executioner. The entity let go of her, filling her with her mind and soul. She knew what happened, but she was somehow different. She saw with the eyes of the entity. She called upon it's power. She felt slightly delirious after this. That's how she chose her name. Delirium. Personality and Motivation Ever since her encounter with the entity, her attitude has bumped up tenfold. What once was a mousy little girl turned into an eloquent speaker, is now someone who can talk your ears off for hours. Valerie is still herself, though the entity's ravening has made her a lot more on edge. She is paradoxically cautious and thrillseeking at the same time. She'll throw her life away for justice if it meant it. But she picks her battles. Besides that she's a nice woman. A little bit talky but not too pushy (unless it's about what she knows to be true). Her motivation is quite simple. She is the soldier of the unknown entity that's given her true purpose in life. He does take control every once in a while and she tries to be ready for it, though she regularly take pain medication for when it does happen. She does enjoy her lot. It's given her a new lease on life. Though it doesn't make it any less painful when it shows up. Powers and Tactics Her powers are derived from an entity that gives her power to smite injustice. She does not need to see with her own eyes or feel with her own skin. It's power flows from her into reality. Judging the unjust and sentencing their souls to psychic pain and torment. Valerie hold back the power when she's in control, but not so when the entity takes control. Complications Blind, kind of: In the incident, she lost her normal human sight. It's been replaced with the sight of the entity. The entity sees the world very differently than normal humans do. It shows her the injustice in everything. She's learned to parse what needs be done, but sometimes the sight gets the better of her. In control, kind of: the entity can pop in any time and use her body as a vessel to mete out justice. She does not remember these moments, but she's in constant pain when it does! Painkillers: She's on these all the time she can. taking prescribed doses like the over the counter bottle says. She just doesn't want to be caught when it takes control of her. She's dependent on the painkillers. Eccentric: She openly speaks her mind nowadays. What's on her mind depends on the time of day. She can have normal conversations, but every once in a while she'll connect dots that aren't there and go off on a rant. Famous: A double edged sword. She's written books both fiction and non-fiction and is known in the horror book circles. Fans might distract her or give her unneeded targets. Bleeding Heart: It hurts her to do some of these. But the entity deems the law is the law. Fair and balanced. Justice for all. Forbidden Lore: She's always on the hunt for some new knowledge that pertains to her expertise. These knowledges are things mankind should not know!
