Current

Official Season 2 full-body artwork of Current by Mackenzie Mullins.

Current, much like her name, has been following the flow of the wind and the sea for as long as she can remember. Life for Current has been one shrouded by the unknowns and a particular calling towards adventure that often gets them into trouble. Still, the small voice that calls her beyond the limits of the kingdom has grown as she did. Now a young adult, they can't help but to feel the pulling of — something, a change. Whatever it may be, Current can sense it and desperately needs to follow.

As a Hurricane Genasi, Current can turn into a flying shark, earning them the nickname "sky shark" among her friends.

## Description

### Appearance

Current has blue-gray skin, wears their long black and blue ombre hair in twists, has pointed ears, and has little white freckles sprinkled across their cheeks. She often dresses in dresses, and prioritizes simple clothing that looks good but is also comfortable. Hats are also a staple of Current's wardrobe, often choosing things with wide brims for the drama of it all.

### Personality

Current is incredibly curious, and often makes very bold choices as a result. They have a strong urge to adventure and learn and experience things for themself, and have been following that urge more and more as they get older. She's also kind and supportive of her friends, always offering a hand to hold or a soothing gesture when needed.

## Biography

### Background

Orphaned as a baby, Current found refuge with the top wizard advisor to the royal family — Articus Whitmore. Current lived a very sheltered adolescence, for fear any harm would come to them. Their days were spent studying, honing her own magic abilities, and (when she could manage it), slipping away to observe the life of the kingdom. They grew up in Alpinople, before moving to Arboreon when they were accepted as an initiate of the Arcaenon.

### Season 1

In 101 - Change of Fate, Current meets up with Merrick Holtz, who blackmails her into doing a job for him: locating a small, gray, metal box. After the Arcaenon's announcement, Current commits to joining Adrielle Hollowtide's adventuring team on their mission to the wildes in 102 - 24 Hours in Kyrthys. Episode 103 - Airshipping Out sees Current flirting with Winona Fytefair and winning a shark fight at Haus of Huntress.

## Relationships

### Acquaintances

* **Merrick Holtz:** Merrick is an unsavory associate of Current's who she went to for information about her birth parents. As a price for searching out that information, Merrick blackmails Current and asked them to do a number of jobs for him which has started to wear on Current.

### Significant Relationships

#### Adrielle Hollowtide

Adrielle and Current, along with Gideon, all grew up in the castle together. Current and Adrielle both studied under the Arcaenon and with the strict supervision from the castle, they both bonded over their desire for knowledge. After Gideon and Adrielle's breakup, Adrielle leaned heavily on Current to get through that difficult period of time. While Current loves Adrielle, they get frustrated with her at times for being hindered by her fear of authority and needing to do things by the book.

#### Gideon Osmund

Gideon and Current are incredibly close, having grown up together under the watchful eye of the Arcaenon. They would love to have Current along for the ride on some of her adventures around Kyrthys, and while Gideon has extended an open offer to them to join and internally she wants to go, Current is afraid of what the consequences could be if their father found out about it. That doesn't keep the two of them from venturing out to Haus of Huntress to drink, flirt, and (in Current's case) fight or race in shark form.

#### Winona Fytefair

Winona and Current met a few months before the start of the campaign, at a Dawn of the Swan (Kyrthinian New Year's Eve) party held at Haus of Huntress. The two of them share a flirty relationship, that started when Winona offered Current a good luck kiss before their shark race that they ended up winning. While Current is often the smooth and charming one and Winona regularly is flustered in her presence, the two of them share a beautiful closeness where they feel comfortable supporting and confiding in each other throughout their shared journey.

## Trivia

* Current tends to prefer being a sky shark over a water shark, but she doesn't mind either one.
* Current's first canon roll of the campaign is a 17, as a bite attack in their fight at Haus of Huntress with Cyan Winter.
