okay :3

this is Serpenzes, my tiefling wild magic sorcerer clown harlequin jester guy. i made him for a one-shot because i thought his vibes were perfect for a funny one-off, but the events of that one-shot were so wild that they've become permanently enshrined in his backstory. his choices of spells are mainly spells that can be utilised for comedic effect and utility, and whatever damaging spells at least have to be flashy and funky and fit the vibes of a jester. he's specialised for charisma, especially performance and deception, but he's got a pretty high intelligence stat too so he's a conniving bastard. wisdom and strength are his dump stats, so he's really flimsy and prone to failing a lot of important saves (which i dont mind because its objectively funny seeing clowns getting hurt).

his backstory is that, as a travelling entertainer, he likes to indulge in local mysteries and intrigue when he's not performing. one time, this led him down a questionable series of decisions that resulted in him joining a small adventuring party that got completely domed by a devil and him agreeing to forfeit his soul upon death if he's allowed to leave alive. so, now, in addition to travelling to entertain, he travels to find a way to become immortal - can't forfeit your soul upon death if you simply never die, right?

ive played him in a couple of campaigns, a couple of one-shots, and he's always an absolute blast RP and voice. hes not my FAVOURITE character ive ever made, but he's a reliable way to enjoy myself.
