Name: Trelos Krykni
Trelos - Greek for crazy
Krykni - from Kryk, Belasrusian for scream
Blood colour: Blueblood, #00228A
Gender: Male
Symbol: An :< ghost
Personality: At first glance, all you see is Trelos, Scarer of Trolls (he picked the title himself, isn't it grand?). He loves scaring, loves Terror Night, and loves hearing trolls scream their horns off. He's also rather... out of his lawnring if you know what I mean. Hatching on Terror Night will do that to a troll. Trelos is only slightly out of his mind, not near the levels of the purplebloods, but enough that he always has some sort of maniacal grin on his face. He's constantly heard going "eheheheheheh" as he moves, and its become sort of a thing he can't stop anymore.
Beyond his insanity, Trelos is an astute blueblood who knows his place in the castes (but that won't stop him from trying to scare the purplebloods too), and rather enjoys his blood status. He enjoys redecorating his hive every few weeks, or days depending on his mood, and particularly enjoys making his hive look like its Terror Night all sweep long.
On those rare days Trelos isn't laughing at everything and jumping out of bushes, he's actually very interesting to talk to. He reads ghost stories and frequently goes around looking for ghosts. He likes mysteries as well, and a good book can put Trelos 'sane' for a good long while if you need him quiet. Fruitbatmom keeps a bookshelf full of these sort of books, just in case. As any blueblood, he is prideful of his rank above other trolls, though perhaps he doesn't stick to the Hemospectrum as much as his Lusus would like him too. His only real problem with the redbloods is that they have pesky mind abilities that make it impossible to scare them. He can't scare them if they know he's coming!
Otherwise, as long as they aren't trying to kill him or pull pranks on him, Trelos doesn't pay anyone any mind given their blood color. He'd rather have the widest selection of possible victims-- I mean test subjects--- I really mean participants for his scaring tactics.
Strengths:
Like a Ghost: Trelos is incredibly good at vanishing behind bushes, doors, trees, Lusii, and other trolls. For all the sound his shoes make and the rustling of his sleaves, Trelos can vanish out of sight with a laugh and a distraction. He uses it the most to scare other trolls, but has been known to do the same to authorities and his own Lusus. Its suspected later in life Trelos would be good at getting information, perhaps.
Bibliophile: Trelos probably would never outright tell anyone that he reads books. And likes it. It would totally destroy his ability to scare trolls and be insane if they knew a good book could sane him up. He really loves books, almost as much as he loves Terror Night. Almost. He enjoys mysteries and books about ghosts and crazy adventures. From these stories and one about military life and popular stories, Trelos has picked up tactics and methods for his scaring tactics. Such as, hiding in a tree to ambush another troll, or using buildings and echoes to make it seem he is everywhere at once.
Artistic: Trelos takes pride in decorating his hive and his set ups for his scaring. He is incredibly artistic, often times doodling sketches for his next scare or the next holiday in a large notebook his Lusus gave to him. While his color theory is not always something that makes sense (certainly, bright neon colors go together, of course they do!) or the patterns he choose are not always the best (mudsplatters and blood drips overlaying lawnrings) he takes pride in the art he does. He works hard on his art and tries to use it in all of his scaring antics. Whether it actually helps or not.
Echolocation: A trait Trelos picked up from his Lusus as a wriggler, Trelos can use echolocation to navigate in the dark. It's not a perfect ability, and most of the time Trelos just does it to hear the echoes. But he emits a sound from his throat, much like a bat does, and listens for the rebounding echo to tell him where things are. Not that he exactly hears the right echo most of the time, but he's still practicing how to use it.
Flaws:
Claustraphobic: Trelos hates, hates, hates small spaces. He despises basements because there is no way out of them, and he'd been locked in the same tiny space too many times. If Trelos ends up in a tiny space, the troll panics like he's being culled and scrambles to find (or fight) his way out of it.
Easily Distracted: Do you have something shiny in your grasp? Is there a moment of complete calm in the group? Or is it in the middle of a very important engagement? There's a high probability that Trelos won't be paying attention. He's easily distracted when it come to anything other than his scaring. He needs to be told many times to do something, and even then Trelos probably won't get to it. His attention span changes rapidly, usually combined with giggling and vibrating from jumping up and down in excitement. Scaring and his books are the only things that really keep Trelos engaged. Even then, there are times when he just won't pay attention at all, something his poor Lusus struggles with constantly.
Excitable: If it wasn't bad enough that Trelos can't pay attention to save his hide, he gets incredibly excited from the smallest things. A new person falls into his trap? Excitement. You need everyone to be quiet, but Trelos sees a shiny object? Excitement. Fruitbatmom brings home peaches? EXCITEMENT. Most of his excitement is expressed through creepy giggling and his entire body practically vibrating in place. As terrifying this might be the first few times one encounters it, it can quickly turn annoying and down right insulting at times. Being so excitable usually means Trelos will screw over any covert, attention intensive mission unless someone gets him to focus and be quiet. A feat even his Lusus still hasn't achieved.
Noisy: Trelos is noisy. He's not necessarily loud, but there is constant sound coming from this troll. He's either giggling or his shoes are vibrating against the ground, or his arms are flailing and making his sleeves flap. Even asleep Trelos makes noise, usually snoring and sloshing about. While he tries to be as quiet as possible for his scaring antics, enviably something is making sound on him. This means that he's usually easy to find, and can be tracked with relative ease. On one hand, this means that your group will be easily spotted by those rescuing them. On the other, it means the seadwellers will most definitely know if you're trying to steal their fish.
Weapon: Kusari-gama, or the 'chain-sickle'; Simple chain with a scythe-shaped weight at the end.
Appearance: See to the right!
Home: Suburb
Lusus: Fruitbatmom, commonly referred to as Peaches (whatever peaches are, of course). Peaches is a relatively large lusus, at fifteen feet from wingtip to wingtip, with an extra set of limbs at the shoulder joints like front legs. Peaches is not quite big enough for Trelos to ride, but that's fine with him as he spends most of his time under her wings, cackling like mad. She doesn't quite enjoy that her charge is so... off in the head, and tries to teach him morals, and the way of Alternian life. Usually to disastrous effects and lots of scared trolls.
She does try to feed him fruits and keep him healthy as best she can. He's a blueblood after all, above most of society, and she wants whats best for him. Which occasionally means she locks him in the basement for his own good, even though he hates it down there.
They still haven't come to an understanding about that.
Power: N/A
