Sujet Ramisk

Sujet striking a pose during a vacation to Inessato.

**Sujet Ramisk** is a male Pacahtuk pilot and freightman who often finds himself helping his friends in messy battle situations, despite his aloof mentality and complete lack of combat training.

Sujet was born on April 1st, 2998 in a middle-class neighborhood in the city of Artesian Fountain on his species' home planet of Muladoon. His family consists of an engineer father, a homemaker mother, and 5 siblings; him being the older-middle (3rd) child of the 6 children.

## Personality

His personality is that of cheerful absent-mindedness, which can be enraging to those unaccustomed to such a thing. Despite this, he's not stupid in terms of knowledge (though it can seem so during the more major bouts of the condition). He is extremely good with electronics, and is obsessed with food, media and popular culture, and various mundane things.

He is one of the few people who has managed to irritate the galactic murderer Mrkos Brorsen and survive, even to the point of inducing migraines in the madman.

## Appearance

Sujet is about 6'2" and of slim build. The latter fact torments him regularly, as his desired occupation is that of a sumo wrestler. He usually wears a plain t-shirt, light jacket, blue jeans, and black backpack, but can sometimes be seen wearing oddities like an old-fashioned tricorner hat with a waffle trinket.

## History

Sujet was in and out of odd jobs since he was 16, never bothering with college. He had always pined for a career as a sumo wrestler, but his hyperactivity and metabolism kept him far from it, no matter how much he ate; and his aloof mentality prevented him from considering that he probably just needed to calm down.

His primary income was from repairing electrical systems. This eventually allowed him to buy his first jumpspace-capable starship, a blue and green 1FP *Valyra*-class heavy fighter/light freighter. With that, he started a personal shipping business, and this took him to various corners of the galaxy for over a decade.

One day, he decided that he was bored with shipping and wanted to do other things. He sold the *Valyra* and bought something more updated, a 1FP *Sprintkill*-class patrol ship that he called the *Noopen*. It is suspiciously well-armed, despite his non-military background. It is likely that he was completely unaware of this when he bought it.

## Current Activity

For reasons unknown, Sujet has become an unwitting accomplice of Andross as of 3038. He gleefully collaborates on projects with the ape, fully convinced of Andross' benevolence.

## Anomalous Effects

Sujet is an atypical Pacahtuk, in the sense that certain researchers consider him to be a metaphysical anomaly. Through some unknown means, Sujet's presence does not meld well with the laws of physics. Some anomalous effects may occasionally manifest around him, assumed to be the result of space-time "glitching out." The following list details some of the more consistent anomalies, listed according to the severity of their hazardous effects:

### Benign Anomaly

**Translocation**: Sujet may randomly vanish or appear at any given point at any time. This is usually in the presence of groups of people who are performing an activity he would consider interesting. He has also been known to appear in restaurants. He does not seem to be aware of this ability.

### Moderate Anomalies

**Eldritch Voice**: Sujet’s inherent silliness has turned his voice into a legitimate cognitohazard. There is a small chance that a random foe will go insane just by hearing Sujet talk (which he does often), gaining disadvantage on attacks for a short period of time. A foe must have decent willpower to avoid insanity. Sujet can focus on this quirk (e.g. yammering about nonsense), and the foe will likely go mad.

**Absurdity Never Dies**: If Sujet is seriously wounded (or outright dies), there is a chance that he will instantly and mysteriously vanish from the fight and respawn later in a random location nearby, healed somewhat. He may or may not remember what he was doing and either get back in the fight or be out for the rest of the fight, having been distracted by something more interesting. Probably food.

**The Un-Stealth**: Imagine a bull in a china shop, and it has a dozen boomboxes strapped to it blaring the heaviest pirate metal music you’ve ever heard at earsplitting volume. Sujet is the bane of ANY stealth mission. If he is with you on a sensitive mission that requires sneaking, YOU WILL FAIL, and will also probably die in a very embarrassing and entirely preventable way. Putting a number to his metaphorical stealth debuff would be like trying to calculate the credit score of Bill Gates. It’s a moot point.

* **It is marginally possible** to subdue Sujet and carry him through a sensitive area as though he was a piece of equipment. This will require 3 players to each roll a D20 die twice (total of 6 rolls), and each result must be 15 or above. 2 players will need to carry him, and 1 player will need to keep BOTH hands clamped around his snout.

### Greater Anomaly

**Fountain of Madness**: Once or twice per day, Sujet bursts into frantic laughter. For several minutes, the magnitude of his laughter makes him vibrate and blur, making it very difficult to carry out any physical interactions with him. He cannot interact while doing this. If in a battle, this odd, comedic levity boosts the confidence of allies within 50m, while enemies within 50m see this as brazen mockery. Allies gain a bonus to all attacks, while enemies are so genuinely offended that they cannot focus properly and get a debuff (though they can avoid this by having great willpower). This may cause Sujet to become a target… if they can hit him.

## OOC

Sujet's presence in Etoile is very cartoony in nature. He serves as a bumbling comedic relief and acts as a running gag of sorts.

### Views on Inessato

Sujet often expresses an intense, even obsessive, interest in the tourist trap world of Inessato. The following conversation has Fauren Daria hand Sujet an Inessato travel brochure, having noted that it is out of date.

* Fauren: "Been [to Inessato]? What is there to do?"
* Sujet: "Old? Timeless! The intrigue of Inessato never changes! Except when it does! But that isn't terribly often, like snow in the summer." *He explodes into laughter.* "To do! Things! Things to do! On Inessato! Bistros and cuisine! Resorts and camping! Nature trails and award-winning community service! Go swimming with vicious beasts! Those and more await you on Inessato!"
* Fauren: "Well then, if I didnt know better, I'd say you were working for their PR office. So what did *you* do there? Dont suppose you actually went swimming with something that could chomp your leg off."
* Sujet: "Not my leg! My attention span! Creatures so interesting that I cannot help but be devoured with crippling interest, and not like a bank loan! Have you even BEEN swimming in pristine, natural waters before? Have you felt so energized, like ever?"
