Such delightful mustiness!

Hello Ruby City~ I'm Elemental, Elem for short, and I'm bringing the lovely (television) Mrs Addams to shuffle through the city in a very tight skirt and hopefully make friends who won't run away. It's been a good 3 years since I've been in a game, so I'm rusty, but Jess has been gleeing about you for so long I just had to check it out.

I've compiled the basics about Morticia here, including a note for magic/supernatural sensing types I'd appreciate if you checked out.

Also to note: Morticia speaks quite a few languages, including Japanese and German, so she may surprise those who are used to cursing in their native tongue.

I'd prefer not to be fourth walled, but! The Addams Clan is a big one, they've had strange mentions and crossovers in media, and it is completely possible your character may have met (or ran from, or chased) an Addams in their past. If you'd like to have a History with the family outside of Morticia herself, I'd love to play off of that!

You can find me on aim as razorgirlmolly and tumblr as Elementalsight. It is totally awesome to meet y'all!

That would be lovely re: meeting relatives. And goodness, Morticia is going to think he's gorgeous. I can't wait for them to meet!

Well, he kind of is~ He knows it, too, although complementing his wings is a surefire way to flatter him.

I also established a while back that he's working on some lovely wolfman bone furniture if she'd like something to customize wherever she ends up living~

[hemlockgarden]

You will make her a fast friend with proper furniture offerings. I suspect Morticia's going to have trouble decorating to her tastes here.

[superstylishsquid]

Yeah, Alastor knows the feeling. His own tastes tend to run a bit gothic thanks to growing up in the underworld. (In his other game, he has servants that are literally animated statues made out of blood and shaped like hippogriffs and he thinks they make wonderful ambiance.)

[hemlockgarden]

The right sort of servants are just so hard to find! Morticia is really going to miss Lurch as much as the rest of the family. Maybe she can just find someone to hire...

[superstylishsquid]

This is where ancient blood rituals to create profane abominations of magic come in handy. Unfortunately, Alastor's kind of a free spirit and would really make a terrible housekeeper, so he can't offer.

[hemlockgarden]

And Mr Addams is the one with the bankroll and is out of the city, which means Morticia can't pay him handsomely for his work even if he was offering.

Clearly, the moment a blood ritual for a domestic servant is possible, Morticia is signing up. She'll bring cupcakes! Cauliflower and meringue anyone?

[superstylishsquid]

If she can get him a statue of high enough quality, he's all for it! Those particular constructs are capable of duplication, too, so once you have one...you won't have to worry about manpower.

The downside is that they're completely lacking in independent will and thus only do things they're told to (unless you name them and give them an identity), but it's good enough for menial tasks and guard duty!

[hemlockgarden]

She can work with that. Lurch technically had a personality when the writers remembered but he mostly just stood around and answered the door/phone and did the heavy lifting.

These things can't talk (though they can vocalize), but they're very good for physical tasks. Nearly indestructible, too!
