Character Name: Adam Parrish Character's Group: Chapter 3 Involvement in that group: He’s a heavy-hitter for problem solving and magic use, but he’s also going to be very prone to depression throughout the swamps.
Swamp navigation - Adam’s powers in Deerington specifically give him ‘finding the right path’ bonuses, so he can lead the way along relatively dry paths and will point the group onward toward the grave. Swamp sadness - Adam’s prone to insecurity and depression, which he’s already been struggling with due to Witchiness in October, so he’ll be really struggling with will to keep going. Lunch - Adam planned ahead but not for this. He brought lunch and snacks for two, so he can share a little food.
Distract the angry tree - At the graveside once the tree gets angry, Adam will draw its attention. Open the grave - Adam can crack it open with relatively little desecration, by just magic fracturing it along the seams.
Figure out what to give the snake - Adam’s good at puzzle solving and plans so he can help with this, and he’s also good at understanding what the dream wants. I of course don’t want him to single-handedly solve it, but he can be helpfully cryptic like declaring “it wants a sacrifice” but then not helping at all to clarify re: sacrifice.
Once they get the bones and start to escape, Adam will do his best to hold the stained glass path open and steady while people run. I might have this end in him getting caught in the path closing, because he will stay behind to make sure everyone else gets out, but that’s all somewhat dependent on questions I’m waiting for mod responses on.
Chapter 3 + Plotting Gdoc!
