Flux was born into a nomadic clan of changelings. They had a loving family with 2 siblings. About two years ago, their clan was attacked by Mind Flayers. What happened that day is a blur to Flux. They presume that their family is dead, killed in the fight. As a young, healthy person, Flux was one of the ones chosen for the process of ceremorphosis.
 
All they remember is being transported a distance and then waking up tied to a bed as a Mind Flayer approached them with a tadpole. Then darkness. They woke up some time later in a room with a dead Mind Flayer, and new, terrifying powers. In their hand was a small metal idol that gave off a strong sense of unease, and a matching black mark on her hand. As they shifted shapes to get rid of it, they realized that the mark was visible in any form. They left the room in the guise of the dead Mind Flayer and escaped without seeing any one else.
 
They quickly realized that they were near the city of Waterdeep. They traveled there and soon took up a life of petty crime, stealing the things they needed to survive. They found that their skills of shapechanging, in addition to their new magical abilities made it fairly easy to get what they needed, plus some. Under the persona of Quill, they soon started to find other unfortunate people that couldn't take for themselves, especially children, and provided for them as well.
 
While Flux was determined to not see their new powers as a curse, the small idol they recieved weighed heavily on their mind. Sleeping near it gave them terrible nightmares of a dark, twisted place. They tried to get rid of the idol. They threw it in the gutter, slipped it in strangers pockets, and tossed it into the ocean, but they would always wake up with it back in their hand.
 
Recently, Flux had a dream, fueled by the idol, of Mind Flayers closing in on their location as they slept. With a sense of foreboding that this was a premonition, they decided to make more of an effort to rid themselves of this idol. Believing that maybe returning it to the underdark would free them, they are making their way to Deep Maw, with the hope of throwing it down into the chasm.

Appearance

Apparel & Accessories

Wears loose fitting clothing that can fit any body type for when they change form.

Mentality

Education

Has never been formally educated in a school. They were taught the skills needed to be a merchant by their family, but they were never super attentive to those lessons. They can read and do basic math, but have a very limited grasp on history, religion, or even the basics of magic.

Employment

After arriving in Waterdeep, they got money through crime, mostly by stealing or conning people.

Mental Trauma

Abduction by mindflayers!

Intellectual Characteristics

Street smart, but never formally educated, they are a little unaware of things that seem like common knowledge to others.

Morality & Philosophy

Survival as the ultimate good. Helping others survive, doing what they need to survive themselves. Particularly fond of children, as they haven't been corrupted by the world and should just be protected.

person.sexuality

They are not especially aware of other's genders, and don't have a preference of one gender over any other.

person.gender_identity

Not connected to a gender. They understand it in the sense that they know others respond to different genders differently, but don't feel a pull in any direction. Their favorite persona at the moment is Quill, who is a woman.

Known Languages

Common, Dwarvish (from traveling with and posing as a dwarf often.)
 
Deep Speech- They don't know that they know this. Picked up during the mindflayer transformation.

Personality

Savvies & Ineptitudes

Many aspects of normal human life are still foreign to them.
Forgets that people's appearance is tied to things like age, gender, race, etc.

Likes & Dislikes

Likes:
Mystery novels
Maps
Drinking
Fake fortune tellers
 
Dislikes:

Vices & Personality flaws

Skeptical of people's motives. Believes that everyone has some hidden side of them.

Hygiene

Likes being clean. Usually uses prestidigitation to clean themselves and their clothes.

Social

Family Ties

Parents: San and Dox
Older Sibling: Jin
Younger Sibling: Cas

Religious Views

If everyone worships something different, probably none of it is right. I see the gods as powerful beings, but not beings worthy of worship.

How did I end up staring down a creature like this?
 
I don't even know what that was. Mostly it was a feeling. Dread, in a particular area. Arli seemed to know it, or know of it anyways. I guess it didn't help because it took her. I can only assume she's dead.
 
Equally heartbreaking, the monster showed me Cas. They were so small and helpless, how can they have survived? I miss them. And everyone else. I really try to not think about them most of the time. Cas looked so real. Like if I could just go touch them, they'd really be there.
 
K and I still managed to walk away. We found what must be the things Nele sent us for.
 
We found our way out and walked right into a war. If you ask me, this isn't our fight. Let's get out of here.
