[Wraiths][Tell me about You]
Welcome to Waldo's House of Toys ... You'd like to know all about
this little Sluagh , now , wouldn't you ? Well ... Waldo is actually my
middle name , but my full name is Randym Waldo Page. But if you go tell
all your friends, I'll have to hunt you down in your sleep and scare the
crap out of you ...
Anyway , you are here , in my WEB , as it were (you know how we adore the
Spiders and their Webs) ... and you're looking for something interesting
to peruse , in these old musty books . Hmm . All the musty old toys that
seem to have come from the 70's or the 80's . Is that an 8-track ? Yes ,
and I've got Fleetwood Mac on vinyl ...
The
Sluagh
are the most often misunderstood , and feared of the Kitahin , bieng
accused of underground orgies and child snatching to sacrifice them to ...
well , as fun as it may sound to some of you Unseelie Redcaps out there ,
it's not at all True . Nope .
But waht kind of neat things do the Sluagh do ???
Well , that would depens on whether you can read
this or not . Because this is about relative to the speaking voice of a
normal (normal??) sluagh ... I am not a normal sluagh and
hardly get invited to anyone's High Tea , bieng somewhat
un-affiliated with the Seelie or Unseelie court ... you'll
notice that most sluagh generally put "(un)seelie" on a lot
of things , and this is due to our mysterious , dark , brooding
side of humor . Yes , we actually have a sense of humor !!!
Hmmm . That was nice .It's nice how typing doesn't involve
speaking . That seems to be a big thing for a lot of us Sluagh.
Especially on IRC and chat rooms .
Now , what else do we have to talk about here ? Ah , yes , my
CHIMERA
Octsavius
Octsavius is a large Dragon that lives in the center of
Madison Square Mall (in Huntsville) inside of a large
crystal ... Why does he live inside a Crystal ? This is
no ordinary Crystal ... However , there is something Banal
overtaking a lot of Malls around here (I know this because
of my sight into the Dreaming) , as well as other places .
I blame it on the Autumn People , but I'll get to that !!!
Anyway , Octsavius is a large Black Dragon Chimera
that has been aroun for longer than the Mall has . He is
deeply connected to the Earth Elements , and has come to
my aid sometimes , warding off stupid people and just having
fun ...
Rhiannon Sara Page
This is what appears to be a cute little doll , without the sight
of the Fae to enchant you , but by the light of Kithain eyes ,
this is a intelligent Chimera , who guards my Car (see Treasures:
The Faeriemobile) from ever bieng stolen of broken into .
There is a lot of Glamour in my car (an 82 Toyota Corolla Hatchback)
which I put into it , so I don't want some fool to come along and
think it's theirs . So I let Rhiannon guard it .
How exactly does a little doll guard a car like mine ???
That's for me to know and for you to find out when you try!
Needless to say , I don't even want to find out . There are some
things you just trust ...
The Doll Heads
Any friend of mine , Kithain or not always notices my
Doll Head . It has the power to entrance any driver on the
road to do my bidding . You would probably call it a treasure
because of this , but it's more of a chimerae , because it
does actually have a mind of it's own . If i were to
describe it to you it looks as such . It is a doll , which I
have painted up to look like a sluagh/clown around the eyes
and mouth , and also the doll has no eyes , it's eyes bieng
replaced by something resembling metal ...
But it has the effect on humans that if I tell them to move
or a light to change , it will . It comes in handy as my
profession - driving all my friends around ... It doesn't
always work in Banal places , and it never leaves my car !!!
TREASURES
The Sword Of The Vale
I don't remember where me and Simon (a pooka from Decatur) found
this little treasure , but it's at home , sitting in my room
(the garbage heap) and it's a treasure ... What seems to be a
plastic sword by day , becomes a mighty blade to slay your
worst Nightmare ... It's a possession of the local Fae
Nobles , but I haven't found them yet (well , I haven't gone
looking for them and they haven't come looking for their
sword , so...) . I suppose they lost or forgot about it .
The Faeriemobile
Ah , my most prized posession ! A Toyota Corolla that is not a
Toyota Corolla. It is in fact a space-time vehicle for
going faster than the speed of Dreams !!! Well , it does get
good gas mileage. But within it is the most wonderful
Glamour. If ever I need Glamour due to excessive Banality
in the world, I run to the Faeriemobile, and viola, I am
like new ... It has powers like a Glen or a Freehold, as
far as Glamour goes .
All my Kithain friends know that this car is very special,
and we trust it more than anything . But, as the Banality
slowly increases in Huntsville (WHY? I'm looking into this,
though i think it's probably the Shadow Court.), I've
been having more and more flat tires lately... Could it be
the Shadow Court , or is it the Strange NIghtmares I've
been having lately ... Maybe that's the last time
I let a knocker fix my car ...
Hat Of The Pooka
This simple night cap has the power to make the wearer
see a fae's Kithain seeming, just by donning it. It belongs
to Simon, the pooka . I don't know if it works on the
really banal people, though. Simon has it, I don't
but he thought I should mention it ... But now everyone's
gonna want one.
Rapier Of Slashing
This also belongs to Simon the pooka . It appears to be a
toy sword , but it is really a powerful weapon of the
Knight , Simon of the Vale (was that the right title?).
Anyway , it works as such : When you strike out with it,
it becomes a mighty broadsword/rapier/dagger , whatever
the situation calls for...
OTHER KITHAIN
Simon-a pooka
Simon lives in Decatur under the watchful eye of his mother . I used
to live out in Decatur a while back , before necessity caused me
to move out . Simon is a good friend of mine and has gone with
me on occasion to the Velvet Underground . What kind of pooka is
he ? Why don't you ask
him yourself . We'll try to get a picture of him up soon...
Satin-a redcap
This fellow is who I was staying with previously . He is a large
redcap , who , well , reportedly ate his cat's tail.(That's his
version of what happened) Like most Redcaps , yes he can eat
anything - bleach , rubbing alcohol... and has a healing
factor probably akin to Wolverine's . As usual , we'll try to
find a picture to put up ...
Louix-an eshu
Louix is one of the newer members of or motley there
in Decatur (I still affiliate with them even though I
have business here in Huntsville). He is almost always
asleep , and I don't blame him, for he is probably on the
edge of Bedlam. He's the one of the few in the motley
to actually own a computer with Net access , where he
seems to forever be raoming. Oh , and we'd never see him
out here if it weren't for his car.(Simon lied when he
said Louix was a Troll, sorry. That's what I get for
letting him write a paragraph.)
Andy-a sidhe?
This is (a) a rumor that simon is criculating in the
email he's sending me , (b) a true rumor that he is
sending me , or (c) a pooka's version of a trick .
I'll get back to you on Andy , okay ...
The Autumn People are taking over Huntsville , I think ...
The malls are bieng overrun with Banality , thanks to something
from a Nightmare ... Just a dream - but who is trying to
destroy our peaceful Vale ???
It must be the Autumn People . I will begin to name these
evil people here soon , as their names become known to me
whether they be Dauntain or otherwise ...And some names
have been suggested by Simon ... But I will not release
the last names , for if you know these people , we don't
have to mention their last names YOU KNOW WHO THEY ARE!!!
- Kenneth - The perfect example of "the crashing bore"
this person is probably just a Autumn Person , not a Dauntain.
- Chris - Simon says he's Dauntain , but I think he's
a Embraced Prodigal now(same difference) he acts like a Pooka
crossed with a Redcap on crackrock ... He never shuts up.
He is part of the strange nightmares and Tremere magicks that
are ruining the Glamour of the city. He is an offshoot of
what Fearlight has done, and no-one trusts him because of it.
- Fearlight - This is yet another Embraced fae , suprisingly.
I have known him at one time, when I though he could be an
ally. But he has embraced other Fae, absolutely
ruining their lives in the process. He is very careless and
dumb in this regard . He thinks that the powers of the Tremere
are now his to control, but it is just the opposite. It is the
Kindred blood that controls you, my friend... you can be saved
from the icy grip of the blood, but you seem too far gone.
If you read these words I give you one last chance before
I allow the vengeance of the one you created, without your
sire's permission, to be released upon you. You must not
continue to pollute the Glamour of this city any longer
with your bloody nightmare.
It may be these few Dauntain among us who threaten us with
their own twisted nightmares and pull us into their horrible
twisted reflection of the Dreaming , caught in the icy grip of
their banality ... They are the ones that haunt us , and they
must see that what they are doing is wrong and against the
laws of glamour. THese people must be made to see that
Glamour is their friend and that they should not become
their own enemy .
Sluagh have the ability to see and converse with wraiths.
This is helpful but not the best thing in the world.
Some of those wraiths can be pretty spooky . I know
only of two Wraiths that I have a personal connection
to Summer and Nikki. For some reason
I think there are others who follow me, to try to get
me to tell other people something, but I ignore most
other Wraiths with a passion.
There are some places here in this Dauntain ridden city where
the Shroud , for some ungodly reason seems to be at a minimum.
One place I know is the Parkway City Mall. Even in daylight,
somehow there is just an pallorous , tomb-like feeling to that
mall. Sometimes the architecture of a place adds to the Shroud's
lack of thickness , and thus I easily become overwhelmed by
visions of the Restless Dead, dancing in my head.
Uh-oh. I just realized that maybe a dead relative could be
following me and haunting my dreams. They can do that, you
know ? No wonder everyone in the apartment feels like crap,
I think. I'll never shake that bloody curse from that one
guy in my dreams, will I? Well, I hope to one day, and when
I do, it's payback time. But that's only half the story. I
haven't told you much about Summer , but let her tell you
if you ever run across her in this House of Toys, and I
doubt you'll ever meet Nikki, and if you do she won't say
much of anything to you, I bet.
