IC INFORMATION CHARACTER NAME: Julie Lawry CANON: The Stand SIGN: The Wheel of Fortune FACTION: Free Cities/Cadens
CHARACTER INFORMATION: Do you like canons that now seem oddly prescient and will make you nauseous at how close reality came to a fictional dystopia? Welcome to the world of The Stand, a miniseries released in 2020 about a global pandemic that kills 99.4% of all human life. Stephen King wrote a book in the 70s and we're all still paying the price. Julie Lawry is a manipulative, social-climbing hayseed from Kansas who is among the .6% of humanity who is inexplicably immune from the superflu. As the sole survivor from her entire podunk town, she spent a month completely alone, then fell prey to a wizard/demon/sex god, went to Las Vegas because of dreams, and now her wardrobe is fabulous. Also she died, but we don't talk about that.
Julie practices wild magic, which she learned by living in Nott for half a year to get a start, then just kept stubbornly practicing via trial and error until she got good at it. Her abilities were sped up by spending excessive amounts of time with the Singularity because ↓
She has a distinctly strong connection to the Singularity and the Horizon -- by which I mean it turns out that she can FUCKING TALK TO IT. As far as she knows, she is the only one who can have an active conversation with it. This has led to her becoming somewhat obsessive and territorial over the Singularity; she spends a lot of time with it, speaking to it and absorbing its magic like nuclear waste. But she loves the Singularity a lot and is fiercely protective of it, both due to her connection and also the fact that she cannot leave Abraxas (since her world is dead), and she fears something bad happening to the world if the Singularity is harmed.
Most recently, she has further weakened the mental wall between herself and the Singularity by using her ability to help try and find clues during the kidnapping. It worked, but at the cost of the Singularity always being present in her mind, not unlike having a really clingy lapdog following her around the house. She can also now interact directly with it outside of the Horizon, interaction mostly being her telling her thoughts to it like a really dumb live tweeting session, and its subsequent reactions. Spoiler: It does not really care about most of her petty commentary on other Summoned. It seems to mostly just like her company.
In the Horizon, she has a nightclub that's open whenever she's there, populated by roughly 100 fake people who live on the dance floor. There is a lot of booze and drugs available, please see the bartender (Steven, a manifestation of the Horizon) or the hostess (Julie, an idiot) if you would like some.
She owns a house in Cadens with Nadine Cross, and also co-owns the cannabis brand Vegas Botanicals, which is primarily sold through Nadine's clinic storefront in Cadens.
CR YOU WANT: tbh I am wide open. Julie will be the cheery to your grumpy, she can work as both little sister or big sister types, she is happy to encourage all those terrible but mundane ideas of your character (eg, she will give you cocaine but probably not help you commit genocide. Unless you have a really convincing argument). Also she is an incorrigible slut, even if she has fallen into a mostly monogamous situation.She does have a New Year's resolution that she only has three more months to accomplish, which is of course to fuck more and different hot people.
If you want negative CR, she can be kind of a dick, especially to people she doesn't know well or regards as being "beneath" her in some way. But I'm not into CR that's negative for the sake of negativity.
PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Julie is really attached to the Singularity, I cannot overstate this. She is highly suspicious of anyone else she deems "too into" it (as she doesn't think they have a right to be), but if your character is chill and eases into the conversation, she likes to talk about it. She isn't open about what she can do or knows about it, since that could turn her into Abraxas's Most Wanted #1, but she has insights to be gained. If your character is on the level and can build up the trust enough, she might someday let them in on her secret -- but if they choose to dig around on their own instead and manage to work it out, she will be beyond pissed. If your character also has some sort of special connection to it, she is much, much faster to warm up.
She is currently secretly teaching herself to make portal stones, one of which she is going to use next month to go on an unsanctioned visit to the Singularity. She'll be gone for a while with that one, but will be back by December.
🎃👻🦇 Julie also hosts the annual Abraxas Halloween bash! It takes place in her domain in the Horizon, and all Summoned are invited. Post will go up later this month!
