Booker Storm / Demonic Squid / (Kim Dokja)

AGE

HEIGHT

PRONOUNS
he/him/his
Appearance + Pings
Pretty normal looking Korean dude. Tends to wear a black overcoat and grey button ups and slacks. Kind of that casual 'I keep my wardrobe professional but simple so I never have to think about what to wear'.

His black coat has storm cloud lining.

If anyone is familiar with his Demonic Squid youtube show, there he is PNGtuber who has a little black squid with red horns and wings.

As of Day 212 he usually has SOME dragon parts. You can see the FULL look here. Typically he has at least the hands and most days he also has the tail. I will try to remember to put this in his top levels. See Blessings for more details.
Limelight Info
Powers
Liar Liar
When he calls someone a 'Liar' in reponse to something they have said, he can tell if what he was told was in fact a lie or not.

If he was correct in calling someone a liar, for a period of one day he can control them once in a way proportional to the lie they told.

E.G. If they simply lied about being 'fine', he can probably only make them do something small like pinch themselves/someone else. But if they lied about truly loving him, he could make them do something strongly against their best interest.

People cannot be made to do something they are physically unable to do, and it CAN be resisted by those with strong will.

If Booker calls someone a liar when they had NOT lied, the power rebounds on him, with exactly the same properties/they can control HIM. However, there is no way for them to know this (he does not advertise it) but sometimes people do stumble upon it.

He can also choose to not use the 'control' part of the power, as long as he doesn't issue any 'commands', and it will wear off after a day.


BeLIEve Ink
He bleeds ink.

If someone uses the ink to write, they will believe whatever they wrote for one day.

If someone drinks the ink, they will believe anything they are told for one day.

Reading something someone ELSE wrote does not have any effect.

His ink does not have any effect on himself (written or ingested).


50% Scaly
Currently an UNCONTROLLED blessing, when Booker is MAD he develops dragon parts. The more mad, the more parts he gets. Parts will linger until he goes to sleep even if he doesn't stay mad.

Part gain order is: Hands > Tail > Feet > ■ ■ > Scales on Neck/Face > Eyes > Teeth > Wings > Horns > Fire(?)*

His dragon parts are all of a RED dragon, with snakelike scales and structure. Hands have black talons in place of fingernails and scaly but still have functional digits, dragon feet are large and wholly shaped like more dragony feet with talons on the toes. Tail is large and fat and at least 5 feet long.

ART OF FULL SCALY HERE.

Limelight AU
Born as Reid Solo to a semi famous (but more rich than famous) family in Siren's Melodies. His parents died tragically in a fire attributed to a serial arsonist at the time. This would've been public knowledge and he was on a few shows as a 9 year old asked to talk about the tragedy.

Disappeared from any public life for a while (trouble fostering, then orphanage) but reappeared at age 16 telling the story of how ACTUALLY his parents were terrible people using his Blessing for profit and his extended family fostered and manipulated him to steal his inheritance. This was a much bigger story than just his parent's tragic deaths, and he milked it pretty hard, appearing on talk shows, radio shows, podcasts etc pretty regularly for a couple of years talking about his abuse in some detail before the story dried up.

This burned all of his bridges with Siren's Melodies, and he was family-less for a while before being picked up by Cirrus. He renamed to Booker Storm and basically fell off the public radar.

A few years later a PNGTuber named Demonic Squid goes viral for sensationalizing gossip, often targeting Siren's Melodies. Demonic Squid's show is one part actual news and one part extrapolating and storytelling. He brands himself as a 'Pop Culture Forecaster', and he basically tries to predict what is going to happen like very annoying weatherman. It's more about entertainment than actual news but he plays it very straight so how much people believe him is really up to them.

Demonic Squid is annoying, will use clickbait, enjoys trolling and hate clicks.

MOST PEOPLE would not know that that Booker Storm is Demonic Squid, but he HAS been doxxed a few times so the info is out there if people want to find it.

IF YOU WANT YOUR CHARACTER TO HAVE HAD GOSSIP SPREAD BY DEMONIC SQUID AT SOME POINT, JUST HIT ME UP. His only real rule is he doesn't talk about kids or relationship drama. Everything else is fair game.

(Or if you want to assume your character is a fan of the show, also good!)
