Tweedie
-- Tweedie
Tweedie is over a hundred years old, Scottish, and looking for ways to stave off her depressive boredom. Though a raging alcoholic, she never seems drunk.
Table of ContentsBackstoryBorn in 1828 Scotland of Earth, in a nowhere village that no longer exists. She was orphaned at an early age and left to fend for herself. Her parents had worked with tweed, so the village called her Tweedie. She has no memory of her given name.
Sin Eaters were popular at the time. Bread and beer were laid on a recently dead body to absorb the sin of the person. Another would then willingly eat the food, consuming the person's sin to allow them into Heaven. In doing so, the Sin Eater was condemning their soul. They were also given a small payment. Tweedie being a young child didn't understand this. She only saw a means to eat and ate well when a plague devastated hers and the surrounding villages.
Consuming so much sin from such a young age changed her. It extended her life and allowed her a few perks.
Tweedie became a Sin Eater for local lords, eventually shipping off to England. She was paid handsomely to consume the sins of church clergymen and other high-ranking officials. She has massive wealth but doesn't really do anything for herself with it. She'll anonymously drop huge amounts to local charities and random individuals who need a little extra help. Towns that she has lived in somehow have plenty of money to fix the infrastructure and help elevate poverty areas.
Locals of the town she currently lives, Mistfall, Main (1990s), have given her the title of town drunk. None of them know she owns the local bar and pays her workers far above-average salary, not even her workers. Or that she resides in the mansion just outside of town, where she keeps all the junk she's accumulated over the years. She's thought about opening her home up as a museum.
She drinks alcohol from bars as they continue to absorb sin from the patrons that are in close proximity. |

Personality
Tweedie's blunt and truthful, but not outright. She'll deflect and twist her words, making you work for a straight answer. She won't ever explain her actions, no matter how strange they are. Mostly, she does things because she thinks it's funny and will do it all with a straight face. Leaving lawn gnomes in your yard. Dining at a high-class restaurant and loudly sipping wine out of the wrong glass. Keeping handfuls of zip ties on her person, just in case.
Tweedie tends to keep to herself, even when out in a crowd; she blends into the background. And that's the way she likes it. She likes to people-watch and learn about them from a distance. It makes anonymous gift-giving all the more amusing for her. However, there are times when she'll pick a person to 'pick on'. Often, it's people who are too serious and down on their luck. She'll find ways into their homes, buy things for herself, but leave it with them, oh you've got a cat? Let me leave this open bag of catnip on the floor. The more exasperated the person is at her antics, the more she'll do it. When the person no longer reacts accordingly to her shenanigans, she'll stop being such a menace to them. These are the people who can become the closest thing to a friend for her. If they've not filed for a restraining order by that point.
She doesn't like seeing people in poor situations, having grown up in awful conditions herself. She has the means to do something about it so she will. She just prefers no one knew it was her doing. She hates most people in positions of authority and is highly critical of them.

Location
Tweedie wanders the halls of the Terminal in a state of confusion. She'll often find herself in the bar and lounge areas, or snooping around the kitchens. She knows something isn't right, but can't tell what. She has no memory of where she came from or why she's there. She can interact with those she comes across, but isn't sure if she's met them before.
Abilities
✦ Sickness
The sin that Tweedie consumes builds in her body, stalling her natural death while she physically ages and saturates her color pigments. She can target an individual to unleash the sin upon, causing them to become ill with some sort of sickness. The more sin she lets out the more dangerous the illness is. When she releases sin she appears younger and healthier.
✦ Unseen
Due to consuming so much sin throughout her life, beings of evil and the like don't notice her. They either see her as one of their own or not at all.
