[justify][color=blue][b][big]Vriska Serket[/big] arachnidsGrip[/b][/color] Your name is VRISKA SERKET. You are a master of EXTREME ROLE PLAYING. You can't get enough of it, or really any game of high stakes and chance. You have persisted with the habit even in spite of your ACCIDENT. But then again, you don't have much choice. [color=blue][b][u]8ackstory[/u][/b] [i]"And you don't have to 8e a good person to 8e a hero."[/i][/color] [collapse=Hive8ent]Vriska has Cerulean Blood, making her part of the first rung of nobility. Quite (un)surprisingly, then, she spends a lot of time playing Flarp, both out of enjoyment and to procure food for her Lusus, which feeds on young trolls. She dislikes her lusus, probably because it requires so much sustenance, which could imply that her basic reason for manipulating so many people is merely to keep up with her lusus's eternal hunger. Her Flarp character is Marquise Spinneret Mindfang, "scourge of land dwellers and sea dwellers alike." Mindfang has gained all the levels available to the Petticoat Seagrift class. All the levels. All of them. Her Flarp character is in fact named after her Ancestor, a very successful pirate and commander of a fleet of Gamblignants. Much of the loot she acquired came from treasure maps of her ancestor, including the Fluorite Octet, a set of eight eight-sided dice. Her Respiteblock is strewn with broken Magic Eight Balls, Flarp guides, dice, and papers resembling RPG character sheets.[/collapse] [collapse=Team Scourge]On at least one occasion, Vriska and a fellow highblood troll, Terezi Pyrope, formed a Flarp team, 'Team Scourge', and faced off against Tavros and Aradia's lowblooded 'Team Charge'. Despite this co-operation, extended into real life and earning them the nickname 'Scourge Sisters', Vriska and Terezi share an intense rivalry, which started when Vriska crippled Tavros during a Flarp session. Only after a long, long series of vengeance quests known as the Team Charge Debacle did the Scourge Sisters agree on a truce.[/collapse] [collapse=Rel8ionships]Vriska has extensive connections with other trolls: she holds a degree of affection for Kanaya Maryam, one of the few trolls that'll give her the time of day. She claims to hate Tavros Nitram for no particular reason she can describe, and behaves in a similar manner towards Aradia Megido. In fact, she's absolutely pissed at the fact that Aradia holds no ill will towards her and is not even the slightest bit perturbed by her bad behavior. She has many similarities with fellow blueblood and neighbour Equius Zahhak, as they are both high-falutin' trolls who have sometimes-abusive, generally creepy relationships with the lower castes. There's also her (former) kismesis, Eridan Ampora, who takes his role rather seriously; unfortunately for him, Vriska's black feelings for him are overshadowed by those for Tavros. As for her relations with the humans, Vriska mostly interacts with John Egbert. Her attachment to John may have something to do with his similarities to Tavros, and she respects him more than she does any of the trolls.[/collapse] [color=blue][b][u]Personality[/u][/b] [i]"I don't know if you've noticed or not, 8ut I'm kind of a huge 8itch."[/i][/color] [collapse=Huge 8itch]Vriska is, more often than not, a huge bitch. She gets easily bored, makes shady deals with people, does horrible things to her "boring" friends, and then slams herself because nobody likes her or - even worse - hates her enough. She believes that bad things constantly happen to her because she has terrible luck, mostly because she doesn’t want to admit any of it being her own fault. She holds herself in high regard, and often brags about her exploits in Flarp, or just about herself in general.[/collapse] [collapse=Manipul8ion]Much like her Lusus, a massive spider, Vriska often manipulates others. However, while she sees herself as a great manipulator, it seems that she is often manipulated herself. Although she would loathe admitting it, she envies people who are able to manipulate others without the use of psychic abilities quite a bit. Perhaps this is the reason she attempts to trick, deceive and backstab nearly every other troll, as a way to prove herself: because when she fails to convince herself how great she is, she puts herself down hard, and she genuinely means it.[/collapse] [collapse=Valour]Despite all her negative traits, she does have a softer, more benevolent side. Her methods may be more than questionable, but she does genuinely try to help her friends – it is mostly due to troll culture that she doesn’t like admitting this, out of fear of seeming weak. She seems to have always felt bad about ending up as screwed up as she did as a result of troll culture, and laments how much better humans have it. As if to make up for this failure, she tries time and time again to write herself into history, but ironically, by doing all these things, she’s almost destined to be forgotten.[/collapse] [color=blue][b][u]A8ilities[/u][/b] [i]”Isn't that what you want, Tavros? To 8e like Pupa? Of course you do!“[/i][/color] [collapse=Mind Control]Most Cerulean Blooded trolls are unlikely to develop psychic powers, making it all the more surprising that Vriska is a very powerful psychic, with the ability to manipulate the minds of others to bend them to their whim. However, only impressionable or insecure characters may be affected by them. She also has a difficult time controlling human minds on her computer: maybe because they are a different species, or maybe because they’re too far away. Supposedly, she’s also able to read minds, but has never successfully demonstrated this ability.[/collapse] [collapse=Vision 8fold]She also has vision eightfold - while one of her eyes is normal, her other has seven smaller pupils, (one in the centre surrounded by six others) creating a total of eight. By focusing her vision eightfold, she can use what seems to be some sort of x-ray vision. She also has a customized red lens that she can place over her glasses and which she can use to further augment her enhanced vision.[/collapse] [color=blue][b][u]Appearance[/u][/b] [i]”Horns and all. That totally proves I am an alien 8eyond a shadow of a dou8t!”[/i][/color] [collapse=General Look]Being a Troll, Vriska naturally has grey skin, sunken orange eyes, pointed teeth, yellow nails, black hair, and of course, horns sprouting from her head: hers are shaped like a pincer and a stinger. Most noticeable is her voluptuous body, with wide curvaceous hips and 36DD breasts; in her own words, the body of a sex goddess. Another noticeable feature is her robotic left arm, which was created for her by Equius Zahhak after she lost her real arm as a result of an error in judgment. Because he made the arm, Equius can control it to at least some degree. She seems to have quite a fascination with the colour blue, due to her being Cerulean Blooded. She wears blue makeup (eyeliner, mascara and lipstick), and part of her usual outfit are blue trousers and a blue Scorpio symbol on a black t-shirt. Apart from that, she wears red-and-white sneakers and a dark grey jacket by default. She also wears wide-rimmed glasses, a perfect fit for either an eye patch or a customized lens.[/collapse] [collapse=Tentadick~]Although her penis being a tentadick is optional, let’s assume that it is: hers is cerulean blue, lightly ribbed on one side but overall smooth and slick, constantly well lubricated thanks to an internal gland. Its length averages about 16 inches, although with its ability to curve and stretch, the exact length varies often. Its width varies as well, starting at a 3 inch knot and tapering off into a fine, rounded point.[/collapse] [/justify]
