You're fucking subhuman

Scarlet, the Battlebabe

It's dangerous out there. Oh yes, the Destroyers are out there just waiting but so are humans. People don't just choose to live where Destroyers could come by on choice. And if they do, it's even worse. But it's not like the land outside of civilization is useless. Still lots of valuable things out there. You need someone who can go there, deal with anything or anyone there, take what they came for, and get back.

That's me.

Everyone introduces their characters by name, look and outlook. Take your turn.

List the other characters’ names.

Go around again for Hx. On your turn, ask the other players which of their characters you can trust.
• For the characters you can trust, write Hx-1.
• For the characters you can’t trust, write Hx+3.

You are indifferent to what is safe, and drawn to what is not.

BATTLEBABE SPECIAL
If you and another character have sex, nullify the other character’s sex move. Whatever it is, it just doesn’t happen.

Tell me how close you’ve gotten to a Destroyer

I killed one. To be fair, a baby. There are Destroyers that leave their children to fend for themselves, and some lunatics found an egg. As far as I can tell they managed to raise it to be somewhat obedient to them. They were using it to terrorize the area nearby and I was sent to find out what was going on. It took a lot of time, bullets, and blood - but eventually I managed to bring it down. Took out the idiots leading it around, or at least enough of them to matter. Can't imagine the kind of people who would do this...or the kind that would be able to.

Tell me about the person/place/thing that makes you feel safe

My father, Absinthe. My mother didn't make it when our original home came under attack by a Destroyer. He and I moved on, and he taught me much of what I know today. He's getting older though, and now stays at our home instead of going out with me. He provided for me, now I provide for him.

What’s the most dangerous thing you’ve been paid to bring back?

A deer from the Woodhold area. Now the deer itself it pretty regular, no threat there, but Dremmer does not approve of anyone even going through without paying and being escorted out - and he really hates it if someone from outside goes hunting or foraging in there. You don't come back if he finds out what you're up to. But the people at Stockard's really love eating things that are hard or dangerous to get, and one of Dragon's people managed to divine from the maelstrom or whatever that the southeast area of Woodhold would have guards then normal because a Destroyer was rumored to be coming close elsewhere. So they sent me and Poppycock, their driver, to bag a deer as quickly as possible and get away in her truck. Things mostly went as planned, but apparently one guard was close enough to hear the shot and investigated just as me and Poppycock were putting the deer in the back. I quickly fired a shot and killed him, and we got out of there as soon as possible.

Hopefully Dremmer doesn't realize who killed the guard or that a deer was taken from his land. It'd piss him off enough to send people after me and I don't really need that right now.

Who knows where you rest your head that you wish didn’t?

Most people around here know about me killing that Destroyer from before, but almost no one knows that other people were controlling it. Vision somehow knows though, and he managed to follow me back home. Vision is the leader of that group of weirdos that are waiting for some savior to show up, as if this were a children's story and one human would be able to end the threat of the Destroyers. He's convinced I'm that savior, and keeps trying to get me to meet his cult and go fight "the forces of evil." I keep refusing, but he's getting pushy about it. There's been no need for violence yet, but even if he escalated I'd have to deal with his followers and that's not a fight worth having.
