Eyes stained with Ambition
Name: Kari Fletcher
Kari-Kari, Kari the reclaimer, Salvage lord Kari
Meaning Frost-Covered.
Goals:
Confront Frost with a party, No matter what form that ends up taking. Salvage some of her research and stuff, possibly hash something out with her if she's cooperative. Kari doesn't believe she will be cooperative. She's in the planar with more souls around her. This feels Kari with dread but it may coincide with some his goals
Continue to nurture the magic he has, He was informed by his master that splitting up his font would weaken his overall magic. He has an overall goal of making the way he was made into a definitive thing, albeit with more defined parameters. This would require four schools of magic.. There will come a crossroads where he may have to make a choice, lest he figures out he could cheat by being a Magic worshipper.
Avenge Gillsmouth, Continue to make things - Kari lost his home, but his Forge was spared in all the chaos. As of writing this he's a little low on material. He's Eager to make Arrows for the visit to Wherever Frost is. He is unsure if he will return to living there yet, but for sure wants to finish the graveyard, and address the curiosites that are not demonic there.
Race: Elven Scion - Magical Clone/ Magical Cutting
(Under the Nightstar, presumably, there may, or may not be more to this)
What is a cutting?
A cutting is just a loose term for someone who is a mortal hewn from magic From another thing, typically it is a corrupted. I intend to outline some details about it, but Sort of feel like it deserves its own post.
Appearance: Kari has moderate Physique from blacksmithing, His recent sparking has given him a small amount of vigor that is apparant in his strides. He has large Icy blue horns borne from how is mother Frost looked when Possessed/pact bound. He sports purple demonic eyes and a black Tail with splotched scar that ends in an arrowtip. This tail doesn't really serve any use though he has a little control over it.
Kari's patchwork craftsmen outfit sometimes has some off patch of color to it, It changes over time so long as he carries his inert focus.
Sometimes, Kari walks without shoes for spell practice. His Toenails are black, but this is from no underlying health issue.
His hair is long and white, and is in a single braid. Sometime in the future, he wants to cut it, but is in no apparent rush to
Kari is Male
140lbs 5'11 Kari's had a small glowup.
Age - He doesn't keep track of his birthday, He's probably in his early twenties, and was born into his early twenties.

Life and notes
While Kari is a magical clone of Frost Fletcher, He's not sure who actually helped make him. He lacks a belly button and does not actively broadcast this fact. Kari was separated From his village before the calamity that brought the world to its current state. He tried to return to his village to find it gone.
His education is incomplete and while he has a little knowledge of what a focus is and even what Evists are capable of he doesn't understand the finer workings of the arcane. He knows Animancers are bad, but doesn't really know why. He has not met many mages post calamity other than very recent RP.
He often wonders why his demonic features are so strong and what it spurns from. He is secretly interested in his demonic roots but is under the impression there is immense danger to him. He is used to questions about his appearance.
He does know how to make arrows of various stones, But was never educated how to complete larger bow projects, or the metallurgy needed to make better arrows
Kari's current existence is that of a resourceful bum. He hasn't lived a life that would allow him to have any sort of favorite thing. He finds himself eating small game, fish and wild berries.
4/24 Made a new acquaintance in Maisie. He had his hair braided and he learned a little about lavoyarde's existence. He had an impromptu braiding lesson, and finds himself wondering if he can use this knowledge to make a basket.
4/26 - Kari found a copper tower with a small crew of people. It had an elemental pet from the last mage who was there. Being in a mage tower stirred familiar and uncertain feelings within him. He found a bell, Scribbled the runes it had down, and rung the bell. Syriens appeared. He left the bell with a outwardly presenting Visagite and the Siren who seemed to get along. One of the Siren he interected with gave his horns a firm tap and he's keeping an eye out for her.
4/27 Pre event - Kari made flint spears at the cross waters with the goal of hunting and defending himself. A nosy author made him question his faith.. Are the gods watching them? Protecting them? The world is still here.. yet the mages seem unbothered. The mages don't really seem as bad as he was led to believe.
Post event. Kari checked out a fishing village which he believes is under some greater curse. He helped banish a demon in an object with Halvar and Tekoa.
1 Month later
Kari has fought a dragon, busted his shoulder, and gained a house, Found out his faith is way more serious than he was ready for, He's on track to be a smith but has a choice ahead of himself on what sort of path to walk. The faith closest to what he wanted to do now has a goal of keeping the threats that practically unraveled reality sealed away. With lots of toil and sacrifice tied to it. Kari has had to look after himself a long time, and had a realization that he's an abomination himself. He's now more likely to refer to his creator as Frost than his mother. While it sounds dramatic, he's considering making his own place to disappear to. All of his recent events have made him rethink his lot in life. He is more focused on the mundane until he figures out what wind to ride. Most of the people he's run into who actually knew Frost and remain seem to be mages, So he's considering turning to the arcane to learn more about himself. He's spoken with a few people about the fact he's a clone, and Vita Seemed to pose a good question that has had him ruminating ever since.
He's secluded himself in his house more often for his downtime, and keeps a memorial and grave site there behind his little hovel. He doesn't have much trust in people outside of a select few, and even that is shakey. His worldview needs some time to adjust.
He's starting to ask the important questions about Frost, Learning more about her. He's not sure if she's tough, or just insane.
Spoiler
Kari's home of Gillsmouth was invaded by a group of demons from the start. He worked hard to bury his neighbors, but as the graves were filled the houses were empty. Something made peaceful grounds there from his kind act of burying the dead at the end of the world. The adventurers who helped him and the Doctor Trefor who helped make the cure ensure some survived. But once they had driven them out, the demons stuck by land. Kari, who was freshly sparked was nowhere near his home and had his primary residence destroyed. His facilities however remained.. He just has a lack of supply. I will also take the the time to mention He can work with Embersteel now.
He still needs to recover the remaining bodies and bury them back home, but they're fairly deep and covered in the caves now. He has to stick a pin in it.
Kari spent alot of time getting mines set up in the lands as a whole, even for unlikely people. He would have sent aid whoever he could (Goodwill donation explanation)
During these adventures, kari had a potion crack open in his back pocket that gave him a powerful memory From a woman who slowly fell in love with Asher Varyn in his life before the world fell to ruin, He's a little aware of it, but probably shouldn't be. He intends to confront Asher but is a little focused on his craft. He already plays host to flickerings of memories, so the feeling gives him an odd comfort.
These other memories are small echo of spells, Even a few that Frost never casted, but was just around to see. The people casting them are always blurry, but if a spell was super common, he's likely to have it ring a bell. This doesn't teach him how to cast the spell. The other is just details about objects and materials, and a lot of materials in this era are a little different, so that doesn't really translate over as well.
Sometime before gillsmouth fell, and the New City that popped up within eyeshot of Gillsmouth, Kari was sparked into Formistry By Kethron, An old friend of Frost's. Kari tends to display very basic mastery of Matter and plant life so far. As this was the first school he was sparked into so far, He will age slowly (600) from this point on. his senses are also heightened now. (there's other boons to it, but aging is the big one)
Kari Visits a new city made by a strange angel named Archon. Kari knows he's important, and learned about him from Kethron. He knows Frost trusted him, and has decided to trust him. Ahead of schedule, A party is being made to confront Frost
Kari discovers a few more people and meets Faith temple, His creators Current main squeeze. He has a feeling that her faith will put her at odds with his goals at some point but has decided he likes her until then. He's under the impression she's fairly powerful but thinks that their ambitions shouldn't align. She set him up with some volunteer work at the New City Clinic with someone named Valtae, who he thinks dislikes his appearance or something. They get along. Kari has many questions for faith, as the last chance he had she didn't reveal much. He knows that he was created around the time she was getting ready to evacuate with Frost, From Frostlight. There is clearly more to this story, but he's more worried about dealing with the husk of a corrupted that is Frost.

Fun fact, I can't really delete spoilers, But it's been about four months since I last updated the profile. I wanted to and will probably continue to update it like this until its time to archive it and make something cleaner.
I refuse to do relations, but if you need to know where your character stands with mine for some reason, feel free to reach out.

Hey, Just bumping this. This is going to need a small bump or overhaul soon, Alots happened, So I'm going to just cliff notes it.
-Kari's down an arm, and has been for some time. I might take some GW for it, it's been missing for a while now. At one point he had a ghost arm. He's lost it in a combat event but I just haven't had the chance to go get it regrown. Hard call.
-Kari's mother figure faith- Frost's old flame has turned kari into a dwarf through the power of a korog ritual. Any ulterior motives to this are unknown to him but he was willing, he's got icy blue horn nubs, no tail. His eyes are still demonic. OOC I did this because its a little funny, but I figure if he ever well and truly makes some mistakes, he might lose it. This isn't really something I want to do
-There are too many world threats, So he's just doing his best. He's accepted the gods are inperfect beings. There's a suspicion that a few of the gods may at one point just be overwhelmed by the titan Qlippoth they intend to leesh, simliar to how skragg has it now. Alot of memories about certain world threats Frost studied has come back to him. Mainly details and omens about qlippoth. And a strong dose of fear.
-He's plotting something, He's got a plan for his own ass kicking outfit. I've got the skin almost ready but It needs a few minor adjustments. On the OOC level this may take long enough to justify him having a beard on the skin. There's alot of unknowns for me. He's probably going to end up worshiping silas, The only reason I don't rush into it, is because every little font of power he'd have his casting power goes down unless he's casting some really specific hybrid spell . I still kind of want him to have a phase where he feels powerful in combat with his magic. Some of the techniques in play have alleviated that concern, but I will say though it's unlikely there's some Situations where he'd be fit for moon and stars. Arcane might still appeals. But I had a realization I can make the endgame cloning through all 4 schools and a domain hybrid, and I feel like if it's worded right it could be really interesting.
(Cont) There is a certain world threat where a planar alien is corrupted and I thought about trying to clone him and save him but Depending on how long that would take, I'm not sure it'd be worth the effort for the amount of risk. I've thought about it a while, And I feel like I could do clone stuff justice before potientally risking the status of my character like that. That and andrew (halfling) Has a decent baseline for that in his own clone stuff.
I had an idea for a couple of neat artifacts that would be aces up his sleeve. One of them would be a disposable that would be a one time protection from corruption, but i'm not sure if I'd have the goodwill for it. I'm also not sure if that's a good story. At the end of the day, I feel like kari still has enough room for improvement that I don't wanna rush to the finish line
-I got enough to put him at e6 through discounts, and am working on new facilities for some inherited gear from Frostlight. Aformentioned asskicking outfit yes.
-Ah, Also, All of the stuff I am working on - with the exception of any focus weaponry - I am having him inherit through Frostlight the region where he was born on the old server. I still have to pay it with goodwill, And there is a bunch of it. Frostlight was founded with the goal of studying and making inventions against world threats. but most of the truly groundbreaking stuff was related to fighting or traveling in hell. I'm not going to write a thesis but ice is pretty rare in hell. I'm sure there could be some weird prison section of hell where things are frozen but I'm fairly sure this will give him an edge. Before the server closed we had experiemental stuff that never really saw the light of day, so having my boy inherit it makes sense. I just don't know how much leverage it'll give him when most demons/ pacted who die sooner or later would probably just res in hell. If I had him go full aggro on demon kind, I don't think he'd last very long. So I'm going to spend spare time and goodwill making his stuff extra strong. before I commit to an endevour like that.
There's also a rare heartstone I'd like him to get but we're not sure what it does now! So I'm holding off on that a little while too.
