My Friday group is going to be playing Blades in the Dark, and this is our Leech... who also happens to have taken Physicker (an ability that speeds up the whole party's healing), making him our party's doctor:
Tumblr media
(in case you can't read it, his background is "Mad Scientist" and his vice is "Stupor (Crack Cocaine)".)
Oh, and his alias is "Dr. Quack" (currently, it might change).
He's also a drag queen.
As for me, once I saw this, there was really no other choice but Slide.
Tumblr media
Not only does it share a name with my Best Boy (and also with one of his abilities), it's also exactly my kind of thing: taking "damage" in order to do cool shit.
[The text reads: "Rook's Gambit: Take 2 stress to roll your best action rating while performing a different action. Say how you adapt your skill to this use."]
Also, we're all roommates in the basement an "abandoned" manor, and our landlord is a vampire named Lord Scurlock who counts as a faction all on his own. Our gang name is the "the tenants", but we let everyone assume it's "the tenace" like high cards. (ten-ace)
The 4th player (aside from me, Dr. Quack, and Dr. Quack's child, Sixtine (pronounced like the Sistine chapel)), is a teenager referred to exclusively as "bloodhound" (real name Orion, but no one knows that) who may or may not live in the walls.
According to our batshit lore, my character (Jamie) broke into the "abandoned" house one night when drunk and lived there for like a week before the other two found out she was living there. (She was not being subtle, the other two just never leave the workshop.)
Aaaaand now everyone else is testing random accents while I'm laughing too hard to make noise.
