Character sheet:

Quote:
Name: Scalis Lector

Gender: Male

Age: 6 solar sweeps

Appearance: Wears a black, nondescript t-shirt, a grey tweed jacket with leather elbow patches, and matching tweed pants. Slippers on his feet, because all good librarians wear slippers. Organge hair, tries to keep it cut as short as possible because of its horrible, horrible color. His lusus is terrible at cutting hair, though, so he usually goes around with a scraggly, uneven, orange hairdo. There's a reason he usually wears a Fedora (though it also helps block light, he likes the dark). One horn extends straight upwards, the other is sickle-shaped, forming the TWIN SIGNS OF LEARNING AND WONDER, They're pretty blackened from all the electricity that's flowed through them, though.. His teeth are fairly long and sharp, and you can barely see two fangs in the corners of his mouth when his mouth is closed. He also wears sunglasses at all times, due to aforesaid photosensitivity.

Lusus: An Orang-Utan. Fairly low-maintainance, though he won't budge on the whole 'banana plantation' issue. A veteran Librarian and Archivar; he taught Scalis all he knew.

Trollian Handle: pandorasArchivist.

Blood Color: Orange. Goddamn Orange.

Hive: On a rocky crag, above the sea, surrounded by winds and spray and storms stands a massive, but worn structure. No castle, despite the walls and turrets, no temple, despite its discinct resemblance to the Pantheon. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenon_%28Nashville%29). No, this is the hive of yourself, a young troll who reads far too many books and collects everything. It is a place of knowlege, and a place of horror, filled with books (all of them) and artifacts and threats so great that the best way to get rid of them was to lock them in a filing cabinet and quietly forget about them. A visitor could find anything here, wisdom, knowlege, true love, or even the perfect book to read late at night. But while you can find everything here, it is gogdam impossible to find anything specific, so more than likely is that you'd come in looking for the ultimate weapon and end up leaving with half a feather duster and a book filled with discourse about the impact of table manners on the development of Trollkind.
This is the CENTRAL INSTITUTION FOR THE COLLECTING, SORTING AND ANALZING OF TOMES, ARTIFACTS, WEAPONS, CREATURES AND ABSTRACT PHENOMENA. But you just like to call it THE LIBRARCHIVARY.

Strife Specibus: TOMEKIND. More versatile than you'd think.

Fetch Modus: Archive modus. Captchalogued items are archived safely and securely. Getting them back out can be a bitch, though, because the filing system is absolutely fucked.

Title: Keeper of Memory

Dreamself: Derse

Interests: Books and Archives are his duty, of course. In his free time he writes, works on obscure obscure experimentation (mostly to do with books) and explores the POWER OF LIGHTNING.
Also, in regards to Menarker's CS: Most of it seems fine (though the fact that he's 2 years older than most of us and wears a bucket on his head makes him pretty damn creepy), but I'm really not sure about the mind-reading bit. Yes, even if it's just surface thoughts. It doesn't seem thematically necessary, and in interactions with other PCs it'd give a lot of potential for god-moding. Or conflict, at the very least. Not to mention that we've never actually seen into a character's mind in homestuck before. We've seen their reactions, but never their thoughts. That's a good pattern. I really don't think we should break it for the sake of minor mind-reading powers.
So, Menarker. Could you go without? It doesn't really seem necessary for your character, and I think it might not benefit the RP later.
