## Lamia, the Requiem

* Younger
* Collector

Lamia is an optimistic young Unicorn and apart of the group of ponies that fled stable 49. She has an interest in sciences, chemistry specifically, and found herself working alongside her father in the stable. Generally, she avoided getting into trouble to keep stress off her father, but that could only last so long when she was hanging out with ponies like English.

She and her friends, English, Hazel, and Harley, found themselves outside the stable searching for a lost friend, Peppermint. Unfortunately, they were kidnapped and brought to a chaotic town called Blackwater, where olds wounds arose, friendships crumpled, and ponies changed for the worse. Lamia would eventually assist in leading a great evil- Oblivion- to Blackwater, causing destruction and countless deaths, leaving her with next to nothing in its wake.

## History

### **Backstory**

Lamia grew up in stable 49, raised by just her father. Her mother died during childbirth, leaving her and her father alone. Despite this, she found that English was family enough for her, and made even more close friends, Hazel and Harley. One night, Harley invited Lamia and the gang to a party at her friends room, which ended... awfully, to say the least. Something happened, the room turned dark and... and eyes in the shadows... Peppermint disappeared... outside the stable. They decided to flee the stable and search for him, but they were wildly unprepared for what they would discover.

### **Personality**

To new ponies or onlookers, she can seem very quiet and reserved, but once you get to know her you find out just how friendly, caring, and loyal she can be... but she isnt perfect. She tends to be selfish, and often makes sacrifices without properly understanding what they truly cost.

## Skillset:

* She is well versed in chemistry, both organic and otherwise.
* She has dabbled in mechanics and medicine, but found very quickly it wasnt her strongsuit. In a pinch, however, beggers cant be choosers.

## Perks:

### *A good defense can be a good offense* [Passive]

"*A good defense involves three things: Courage, intelligence, and a willingness to defend not only yourself but those around you.*" -Anonymous

Effect: Lamia has been constantly working hard on her magic since joining the raiders, mainly to increase her ability to protect her friends. Because of this, she now has a +15 to all magic rolls for defense for herself and others.

### Shine Shank! [Active]

"*If they stand behind you, protect them. If they stand beside you, respect them. If they stand against you, destroy them*" -Anonymous

Flavor: After a successful roll or counterattack against her target, she will use a knife laced with the failed shine variants, making the cuts toxic. You won't die, but god damn it will hurt.

Effect: If hit with a laced knife, her target will have a -30 roll for defensive and offensive actions, decreasing by 5 after every roll until it wears off. The cooldown is 4 rolls after it wears off. Does not stack.
[Roll effect: -30, -25, -20, -15, -10]
