CHARACTER

Name: Darcy Anaïs Myriam LeJeune

True Name: Darcy, just Darcy

Canon: Original character from the Geist: the Sin Eaters tabletop roleplaying system.

Age: 16

History: Born in Lyon France, Darcy was a serious, fiercely determined kid. She fell into sports pretty quickly as an outlet for her excess of energy, picking up fencing when she was old enough, along with dabblings in boxing, short-distance sprinting, and high-jump. She had aspirations to represent France in the Olympics in fencing that were quickly cut short by her mother being injured in action, and a nervous breakdown as a result that left her able to see ghosts. Age 15-16 was spent in between psych appointments, training, trying to handle schoolwork, trying to pretend like she wasn't being swarmed by spirits of the dead, and taking care of her injured mother. When she went missing after a brutal loss at a local fencing tournament, nobody could say they were much surprised.

Except, of course, that she didn’t ‘go missing’. She was murdered.

Pushed off a bridge by a faceless assailant she never got to see, she drowned in silence, away from everyone who knew her, unable to fight back. Her last moments were filled with unspeakable, incandescent outrage. So when a hand reached through the darkness to pull her back ashore, she took it.
Now one of the Bound, a person who made a deal with a powerful geist to return to life, she is called to seek vengeance for the dead who cannot pass on. She does not, however, have to like this calling, and often doesn’t, frequently struggling to balance her passions and goals with the demands of the spirit that brought her back to life.



Powers/Abilities: Typically the Bound do not die when killed due to the influence of their geists, which will obviously be nerfed for this game. Darcy can speak and interact with ghosts (although I am aware that ghosts aboard the ship will behave differently to ghosts in her canon). She can eat ghosts to heal herself and gain power, but she chooses not to. Darcy otherwise has a small array of powers that manifested from how she died; the ability to breathe underwater, some minor hydrokinesis, invisibility, and the ability to inflict subtle magical damage. As the use of immortality powers is banned, and her geist will not permit her to die, I’m also going to say that her geist isn’t present, which makes her powers less predictable and more likely to react to her emotions. If anyone has ghost-sensing powers, she comes up feeling dead-ish. Mundanely, she’s an excellent fencer and is remarkably agile and quick on her feet, due to her long history of excellence in sports.


Inventory: A duffel bag containing a change of clothes, protective fencing gear, a gym towel, water bottle, an ipod full of music, and a small notebook with her training routine and calculations for macronutrient intake. Weapon-wise, she has a solid metal rapier that appears to be a replica of a medieval weapon with the edges sharpened, a folding military-issue multipurpose knife, and a very very old rapier hilt with the blade rusted and broken off. On her person is the gym clothes she was wearing when she arrived, and a Benedictine medal she wears as a necklace, inscribed with the Vade Retro Satana formula on the back.
