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!

...all of this is bound to be expanded on so yeah.

Role in current universe: The Violet Illuminant - patron of royalty and master of illusions. Ambrose's driving goal is to put someone, anyone - the Queen, a knight, whoever - back on the throne, and he'll throw his (usually disguised) support behind anyone who will reunify the kingdom.

Backstory/Description of new identity: ~Shrouded in mystery~, as any possibly-fae critter would be. Mage. Really likes purple violet and royalty. Is probably in ur base, making u see what he wants u to see.

Significant changes in personality/mannerisms: ~Shrouded in mys- no, he's likely going to be illusioned-up a lot of the time (have fun with that) but should one encounter real!Ambrose they'll find him doing that aura-of-nobility thing he gets occasionally. Only more. Where he's usually pretty straightforward and easy to read there will be a level of ambiguity to his words and actions. Also: vain. Behold his resplendent robes why yes those are genuine amethysts how pleasant of you to notice.

Kinds of CR/RP scenarios you're looking for with this plot: Wanna find the Queen and restore her to the throne? Awesome, he'll help you. Wanna take the throne yourself? Awesome, he'll help you. Digging the chaos and just wanna watch the world burn? Ew, gtfo, he'll have next to nothing to do with you (them's the brakes with the whole Illuminated only care about [stuff to do with color] thing).

Also: knights to aid him. He (probably) can't be everywhere at once. OR CAN HE. Position filled :D!

Anything Else/: SORRY THIS IS VAGUE but ~SIM~, plus this is just a quick-and-dirty write-up. I am probably going to come up with some curse or blessing which he's stuck with because why not.

As he is ~shrouded in mystery~, does Rekka know real!Ambrose? Also, can she like... sense him through his illusions, or does he shroud himself from her?

Nah, she knows the real!Ambrose and can sense him through the illusions. Call it a convenience gift/blessing thing.
