The Kindly Crusader.
Dacquoise Tart is a player character from the Cutefinder campaign. She wields healing, fire, and spiritual summoning magic. Her physical weapons are a scimitar and shield, emblazoned with the sigil of Sarenrae and Guildhouse Ercinee. Her gentle nature and kindness will be put to the test as plans come together across the land of Kova.
Her character sheet is here.
Description[edit]
Dacquoise's armor covers most of her body, metal plates and chain mail where the plates overlap. She wears her hair up, the brown bob-cut mass curled into a netted caul so it is out of the way. A tabard covers her front and back, the sigil of Guildhall Ercinee on it.
Outside of battle, her outfit changes from the battle-hardened to something more fitting to her demeanor. Dresses ranging from greens, yellows, or blues, to blouse and skirt combined with a bodice.
She sees things differently than others, trying to show others compassion and understanding even in the midst of battle. She tries to defend her companions to the best of her abilities, placing herself between them and danger at all times. She sees this as a way to be useful and keep her, almost always junior, guild members safe.
Relationships[edit]
- Wren
- A fellow guild member; found in a section of the ruins they were exploring, Dacquoise took readily to the magus's presence.
- Runica Argensolde
- A fellow guild member; despite the opposing sources of their powers and the other's sometimes cold attitude, Dacquoise finds Runica a delight to be around. She finds the talk of research fascinating, not generally one for solo research herself. Once Runica's illness resurfaces, she finds herself now taking greater care for her now friend, using whatever amount of her power she can to keep the girl stable. She fears it won't be enough and already starts to feel herself mourning her friend in private. They have an understanding that Dacquoise is not to be raised as an undead in the event she dies.
- Tanya Luden
- A fellow guild member; Dacquoise does not hold as much fondness for Tanya as she does other guild members. Her favor falling from their initial encounter and the butting of leadership heads that occurred. She finds Tanya too pig headed and out of control to work with without getting frustrated, unable to see things from the other's perspective. Has made a request to the guild to not be on missions with her if possible.
- Procyon
- Member of the unaffiliated Archaeological Society;
History[edit]
Dacquoise was found on the side of the road by passing Ercinee guild members and taken to the guild. There were notices put out with her description, but no one claimed her. She became ward and property of the guild, becoming a guildborne under the tutelage of her mentor, Kau.
She took odd jobs to help support and find a place within her guild, finding a natural knack for clerical magic under the symbol of Sarenrae, the Dawnflower. Some would say it was destined, what with a birthmark of Sarenrae's holy symbol on her wrist. She wanted to follow in her mentor's steps however, focusing on building a sturdy defense alongside her magic, becoming a crusader.
That was what was written in the guild records anyway.
In reality, her real name was Claire Durant of the UVS Innsmouth. A child of the crew, she was alive and active when the ship fell from the sky. She was placed in protect cold storage before impact, one of the few cold sleep units to remain intact. Kau, also from the ship, removed her from storage and to the surface. There, she gave the child a new name and brought the two of them to the guild. Kau watched over Dacquoise and helped her develop into who she would become. Kau did cuff the idea of her being Dacquoise's mother from the child's head when it cropped up. Dacquoise has no memory of her time on the ship or coming to the surface at all, trauma or the fact she was so young at the time being likely causes.
Kau, on a journey into the ruins at the crossing told Dacquoise there may be something her father left for her in the ruins..
