Lottery Result: Weirder Things & A Kind of Magic – ok, this one screams magical middle school. Damn. But let’s not put this into a fancy elite school, but maybe something accessible to all pupils with magical abilities. A magical public boarding school, if you want.
Lakshmi Mason recently turned 10, and shortly after got what the bookworm always dreamt of – a magical letter, delivered by rat courier, inviting her to The Ever Institute. The Ever Institute is a school only magical folk know about, and while Lakshmi was convinced immediately that it existed, her parents were a whole lot less believing. In short, Lakshmi earned herself a good yelling at for the “fake letter”.
Luckily, the school sent around a nice lady on a broom who set her parents straight. And once they saw that there'd be no attendance fees – looks like mages count as highly skilled labor, meaning the government is willing to support prospective students rather nicely – and that their little daughter would be well taken care of – they were willing to give it a go. Even though her father cried a bit when it became clear she'd be away for months on end.
Lakshmi is bursting with excitement as her mom and dad are driving her to the place she’d spend most of the next years, hoping to make cool friends and have grand adventures. She couldn’t have been more right.
As far as the game cares, she is a normal character – “young” and “old” are relative to the setting, and with 10 she is a perfectly normal first-year student.
Role: The Apprentice (AKoM)
Trope: Nosy Nerd (WT)
Feats: Intuition (good at noticing stuff others miss), Selfless (good at defending others), Always Prepared (can procure small items when needed for a cost)
Crew: Lakshmi's Gang
Flaw: Can't stand injustice
Song: Taylor Swift - 'A Place in This World'
I give her two points in Leadership, a Walkman, and the spells Magical Dart, Illusion, and Recall. Recall lets her call a small item to herself from a distance.
And she of course gets a sheet.
