**Tamarie**, pronounced "TA-ma-rii" if you're a normal person and "ta-MA-ri-eh" if you looked at her name in written form, also known to the drow as **Faeruefay**, is an infamous warlock (at least, to the drow) known for being... incredibly petty? Despite her alignment to chaos and her unruliness, her allegiance is with the devils of the Nine Hells. She is often seen with The Trader, the only person she really truly counts as a friend.

## Personality

Tamarie is, really, very very intelligent. Really, her problem-solving skills are unmatched except for powerful beings beyond the realm of average mortals. Despite this though, she acts like moron almost all the time. Her personality is essentially Cirno from Touhou but more "evil", and this mostly comes down to *pranking the ever loving shit out of anyone she can find*. She's fond of playful duels. She also sometimes exhibits the traits of dogs, particularly in that she is receptive to pets, playful and energetic, and barks or growls sometimes.

She doesn't have many interests, but in her spare time, she likes to write scrolls and make magic items. Her primary spoken language is Sylvan, but she sometimes uses words from Elvish, Undercommon or Infernal.

## History

Born in the Underdark to a drow matriarch, Tamarie was an outcast to her siblings, who were jealous of her due to her noble powers. She grew up in rough circumstances, learning survival skills to keep herself steady, and narrowly avoiding assassination attempts from those who wanted to eliminate her as competition. She would've succumbed to one such attempt at the hands of her sister, but she was spirited away to the Feydark by treacherous fey. She remained there for all of her life, but didn't learn any of her magical skills until she started planeshopping via planar portals and entered the service of devils. Through this, she reconnected with her roots in the Material Plane, and remembering how awful the drow were, vowed to destroy them. The drow recognized her too, under the dead name of Faeruefay, which she discarded upon entering the Feywild. Thus began a great war, between one incredibly slippery person and an entire race.

Throughout her life, her only persistent ally was The Trader, although she made small alliances with other beings when she needed their aid, and then discarded them when she felt it was dragging on for too long. She sometimes resided in the Feywild, but never called any place her true home.

In recent times, she's been making out her living in Sollum, choosing to live among the lower class subterranean races. She has ties with Sohaarim and Nerinerurumi.

## Relationships

### The Trader

Her only friend. Tamarie enjoys the Trader thoroughly, because Tamarie is into lawful people, and the Trader is chill enough to not be too bothered by Tamarie's pranks (and sometimes partakes in them herself.) The Trader is often the one to care for Tamarie, since she thinks the half-elf might be too childish to actually maintain a decent lifestyle by herself.

## Abilities

Tamarie leeches infernal power from Asmodeus, the ruler of Hell, to power her divine spellcasting. She accomplishes this through a backdoor in the pact she made with the forces of Hell which she unwittingly discovered one year. As a warlock, she has access to at-will eldritch magic in the form of *eldritch blast* and invocations. Her eldritch blast takes on the form of lava and flame, and is typically made of hellfire and charged with negative energy, draining life on contact. She much prefers melee combat to ranged attacks, and will initiate strikes and other maneuvers with her claw attacks. The disciplines she uses are Cursed Razor, Black Seraph and Eternal Guardian. As a corrupted vanguard, she is similar to an antipaladin, but as she cannot channel divine power due to her hatred for the gods who have failed her time and time again, she learned instead to use martial prowess in their place, and is thus an initiator, as described above. Her antipaladin powers allow her to animate, rebuke and command undead, and place a retaliative unholy force on her allies that lashes out when they are attacked by enemies. These can be modified to inflict nasty effects on others, ranging fom fear to disease to paralysis, as well as support her allies with protection from good or infernal healing. She possesses a potent aura of evil that does various *things* I'm too lazy to look up. She is also immune to the effects of disease, but can still contract and spread them.

One of her other abilities includes making pacts with vestiges to gain their powers, being able to hear her name whenever it is spoken, and scry on or possess people who do if she uses some of her limited power. She also has the power to wield spellfire, as well as racial abilities that drow nobles possess, such as constantly detecting magic or being able to create darkness at will. As a fiendish fey creature, she has some special abilities like teleportation, evasion, and the ability to change shape, turning into either full dog or full Tamarie (fully female too). She also has a wide array of spell-like abilities, either unholy powers that cause destruction, pain and darkness, or fey powers that enchant or cause illusions. She is so petty that she has the ability to return from the dead as an undead being when slain. She will usually try to keep enough of her power such that she can resurrect herself after undeath and return to the living world.

### Equipment

Her armor of choice is a mithral tatami-do, with a kikko coat over the top. It's flexible enough to not impede her movement too much. In between the armor layers is a greater chasuble of fell power that empowers her eldritch blast abilities, and she wears a cloak of the consort that she took from her mother when she killed her. She wears a ring of regeneration, and carries a staff of power and a wand of *cure light wounds*. She also has scrolls of *wish* and *heal* that she is usually too hesitant to use.

## Trivia

* She is biologically male because she picked up *some* of the traits of a dog, but not all. This includes ears and a tail.
	+ Her hearing is very good, because she has both elf ears and dog ears.
	+ Her tail wags when she is happy or excited, and droops when she is afraid or sad.

* She is canonically very horny.
* The little like- rocks in her skin?? I haven't determined why she has those, but they're presumably a Drow thing, and may be a skin condition.
* Her ears are long and pointy, perhaps more so than an elf. Again, weird design choice.
* She is always doing a yukkuri face. She is just a yukkuri with a body.
* Her "type" is people of lawful alignments, so she takes interest in the Trader, Tsubaki and Miko.
* She has trouble sleeping by herself, because in her past she would always have to dodge assassination attempts by her siblings and peers. She isn't afraid of the dark, just the state of being vulnerable that sleeping causes. She is a pretty light sleeper on her own, but snoozes much more heavily when surrounded by something warm and breathing. Her favorite 'cuddle partner' to sleep on is, unsurprisingly, The Trader.
