Is there a doctor in the house?

[necromancynow]

Hey there, this is Tetra, Heiji's player! And this round I'll be bringing in Faust VIII from an early 2000s anime called Shaman King!

Who is Faust? He's an emotionally unstable medical doctor who specializes in necromancy and dark magic. Some years ago, his wife was murdered. He's been trying to raise her from the dead ever since. Grave-robbing, blood sacrifice, dark deals with fae, you name it and he's probably tried it :'). Personalitywise, he's usually pretty chill, at least until he's not.

During the day, he's a kindly if worn-looking physician at an ordinary-looking medical clinic. At night, he'll treat pretty much anyone in the Underground, no questions asked. Are you possessed by evil spirits? Bleeding from your eyes? Afflicted with hexcraft? Faust can fix you up unless you insult his wife you swine.

So yeah, looking forward to doing some mad doctor plotting B).

Ahh people with anger management issues are so much fun :)

Yeah, unless you're on the other side of them I guess >8|.

Unlike I guess a lot of witches with self-preservation, Faust has nothing left in his life so he'll also deal with fae like Mab. She can't have his soul, though, he already traded that old thing.

[rules_winter]

haha yes.

She likes things besides souls. Like morally questionable doctors who might just shiv someone she wants dead in exchange for whatever he needs. Or bring out zombies to help her take a territory. You know, the little things.

[necromancynow]

Yeah, Faust isn't really a good candidate for shivving someone himself because he's basically just a sort of malnourished human in terms of strength, but it could be a beneficial partnership certainly...

He'll make a deal with practically anyone if it'll get him want he wants 8(.

All I'm saying is he has access to both scalpels and sedated patients. /shifty eyes/ We'll find a way for them to deal with one another. He'll be the first one to even consider it. Although Clara offered to be Mab's spy for free ♥ Clara

I wonder if Faust would have qualms about doing something like that. Because even though his personality has become pretty twisted, he used to take the doctor-patient relationship and the whole "do no harm" thing very seriously. It'd probably depend on what/who it was :|a

[rules_winter]

Well, if not sedated patients at least he has access to sedatives and that would involve very little actual physical effort besides a surprise poke :) In fact capture could be even more useful to her than killing.

Oh dear...

But yeah, i'm sure they can work something out.
