Infiltrator CR Meme: The Cursed Kingdom!
Once you've decided what role you want to play as an infiltrator, brainwashed to believe you belong in Dolorosa, this is the place to talk with other players about shared backstory and relationships you'd like to plan out for the plot. If you're playing a plot-important role, we'd ask that you not disclose any plot secrets here, obviously, and for ease of identification we ask that characters not change their first names unless absolutely necessary for suspension of disbelief, but otherwise everything is fair game! Just make a top-level comment below with your character's name in the subject line, fill out the little form, and then tag around as you like!
Leonardo da Vinci → Orange Illuminated
Backstory/Description of new identity: About eleven or twelve years ago, an old noble found the Orange Illuminant's tent on his land. Infuriated, he told the Orange Illuminated to go. The Orange Illuminated wanted to stay, so instead he made a deal that he would leave without trouble, and make the man richer for his troubles, but only if the nobleman solved his riddle within a day. Otherwise, the Orange Illuminated would stay for as long as he liked, and take something from the nobleman instead. The man agreed, but the riddle was challenging, and he asked his only son for the answer. However, the Orange Illuminated knew that he had gotten his answer from the son, and thus said that it was not the nobleman who had solved his riddle. When asked what he wanted as payment, the Orange Illuminated chose the young son of the nobleman.
The young son was Leonardo, who was schooled in the teachings of Orange Magic and taught as the Orange Magician's utmost apprentice. He was raised from then on to fill the position of the Orange Illuminated when his former master decided it was time to move on. And very soon, he did. Six years ago the Orange Illuminated passed on his mantle to Leonardo and disappeared.
The Orange Illuminated as he is now is all about adventuring and having a good time while doing it. He is extremely unconventional in that he brings his lair with him wherever he goes, unlike the others who tend to stay in one place. He surrounds himself with new scents and tastes, as well as constantly asks for new jokes or riddles he might not have heard yet. He loves pranking people, though his pranks are usually pretty harmless all things considered.
Significant changes in personality/mannerisms: This version of Leonardo has more of a trickster bent to him. While Leonardo would not laugh at the expense of others, Orange would. In fact, he does so frequently, assuming it is a generally harmless prank. Orange does constantly eat meat, something Leonardo doesn't do, and is always interested in trying new tastes and experiencing new scents. Orange also does not draw, as he's too busy doing things to observe it long enough to draw it like Leonardo does.
Kinds of CR/RP scenarios you're looking for with this plot: All of it. Give me all of it. Negative CR is pretty hard because even if your character has a terrible sense of humor, Orange will love to tease him or her.
Anything Else/: He will be completely gone from Dolorosa on the 20th of June.
