So my brand new, never been seen before character Phoebe is up and ready to go! She's a Dullahan, and is using some old Reaper lore that a few of us used to play around with.

Basically, in addition to helping the dead pass on, a Reaper's job is more broadly to help people who are at a crossroads. That could be an important decision they need to make, a circumstance they need to learn to accept, or even their imminent/recent death.

Phoebe deals with this by getting a name and a vague description of a person when she's meant to help them. So that's what I want for her: people dealing with problems that this untrained life coach can crash into and help or harm entirely by accident.

I figure this will be a great way for her to make friends and piss some people off, so hit me with whatever you've got. You can reply here and we'll talk.

I wonder if she and Serena could become friends... Maybe there could be a few moments where the two happened to be at the same place, at the same time, to deal with the passing of the same person.

Vivian (formerly: Heath) has heart problems, and they're going to become bad enough in complicated enough ways that she'll need either a risky/messy surgery or magical intervention to survive.

She's also changed her name and gender since coming to the island. She's on the fence about whether to try hiding this from her conservative parents, who will definitely be visiting while she's in the hospital.

I think some of this might attract your new incarnation of Phoebe, from what you said here.

I think I really only have 2 at the moment that might work. Those being my beautiful troubled Levina, but you know the story there.

Then Elijah. Super naive and carefree. More than likely going to put himself in bad situations and maybe phoebe could accidentally push him to those bad situations.

Also tossing out my others are all also free game (Alyx, Adryan, Stefan, and Cris) and you know I'm fairly easy going and very much a go with the flow for plots. So feel free to let me know if you want them too.

@GrimRPer That could be an interesting dynamic, though I didn't realize that Serena helped the dying pass on to the afterlife. How exactly does that work with her?

@Kathinja Absolutely. It would be funny: the preppy Valley girl who wants nothing to do with being a Reaper and the mall goth who absolutely wants to be a Reaper. Especially if Phoebe realizes and wants to compare notes so she can be better at the job.

@Kait Absolutely it would. We can hash out details for when you want to delve into that stuff, like how much info Phoebe will get on the situation, which part of her situation Phoebe is there to help with, etc.

@Stefan I'd love to have Phoebe mess up and put Elijah in a bad spot if that's what you want to happen. Her over eagerness to do her new job coupled with her lack of knowledge about Nek0s could be a recipe for disaster. We can hash out exactly what the details are if you want.

Could definitely throw Lucas her way! The guy says he knows what he's doing, and to a certain extent he does, but he's also just as confused about what reapers are actually supposed to do. I think they might bond over the struggles of having such a vague role. Maybe they're put in a situation where they need to do a job together?

Serena has a couple of abilities that helps others calm down, and one of those is meant to clear their minds and ease them from fear, and recently gained one that warns people of their last moments if it is drawing near.
