Dot Sylke <Living Mortal; Slayer of Kings; Pyrokin> "Blake... I know you're growing up, and it's time for you to start making your own decisions. But I'm your mother, and I'm always going to want to help you, and make sure you're going to be ok. I want to... can you let me stay in your imagination, in the book? In Grantabrugge? With the people there?" "I'll always be there for you whenever you need me... you will always be able to find me there..."

Dot's character sheet went through several revisions:
/>Prototype Cultist Dot.xls(never actually happened!) {Hypothetical Useful Dot.xls(Subter-Alchemy)/ evil kender.txt->Sordanite kender.txt->Dot.txt->Dot.xls-> {Hypothetical Sexy Dot.xls(Subter-Priest) / {Hypothetical Holy Dot.xls(More Priesty) \ \>3YGB Dot.xlsDot transformed into a True Elf between initial character concept and entering play.
The 3YGB build was slightly restatted as the "downtime" subterfuge skills were very unlikely to feature, while IC she had spent many years in arcadia between leaving play and the 3YGB. Her idealised uptime character sheet was as follows:

Dot was a delicate flower on 4/2 hits, but she made up for it with 2 points of DAC and 2 points of armour per location, except the head which could have had one.
She was capable of calling QUAD THROUGH by backstab with weapons up to 36 inches long. She could weild weapons up to 36 inches in her left hand, 42 inches in her right. She was competent with throwing weapons, and actually used them (in various different ways!) on a few occasions on the 3YGB.
She had two alias slots, one of which was recycled over 4 weeks of downtime.
She learned to Read and Write Tomten with tuition from Argus Fenugreek, in preparation for a trip to Atlantis, and also because she was interested in her cultural history, and maybe even some other reasons as well.
She had all Smite Body and Smite Soul Miracles to Level VII, along with healing and mind control to level II. She had a total of 12 Spirit Points, so learned to bide her time and use her miracles to their maximum effect.
Her Level VIII Miracle came in the form of a permanent modification to her being which allowed her to obtain 1 point of Spiritual Authority from Sordan by performing a 10-second maim action on 1 location of a conscious, sentient being. Each such being was good for up to 5 points of spirit, following 50 seconds maiming (in the "best" case scenario).
Her maximal theoretical DPS sequence ran: Smite Body IV on a 42 inch weapon for a SPIRIT QUAD THROUGH followed by a Poisoned Backstab with a 36 inch (VENOM HEX THROUGH) then dropping the sword and flowing into into Smite Body VI (SPIRIT HEX THROUGH) for 16 points of THROUGH damage to a torso in 3-4 seconds.
