- Post these rules. 
- Unveil 8 random facts about your character. 
- Tag 8 other Deviants and one of their characters.


-Parents are unknown, but he is definitely half fae and human. This allows him to be sensitive to areas of aether (be it fae or ghostly territories) but he can't do much about it. But it does grant him some immunity to charms and illusionary spells that faeries typically cast (which means he can see through glamour and glamour doesn't work on him) . But because of his unusual parentage and being raised by a traveling circus, he was scarred and tattooed as a child to try and emphasize a more freakish nature. He's learned to accept and make the best of his appearance.  

-When Q first met Tellou, Tellou was extremely withdrawn and antisocial at the time. But because Q encouraged and tempered Tellou's crazy hijinks and exploits, he brought out Tellou's better personality, and keeps Tellou grounded throughout his life. Q is the 'human aspect/ego' that influences Tellou as Alunwey represents faes and the super ego while Ysef represents demons and Id. 

-Q is Tellou's first adventuring partner. As Tellou discovers the joy of exploration, Q also discovers the joy of loot and bartering and profit. Tellou's red earring actually comes from their first successful adventure raid.

-Q had multiple rewrites to his history and relationship with Tellou, from being Tellou's first 'bound demon' abused for shits and giggles, to a demon given as a manservant in Tellou's later years to finally just being a half fae human with his own agency. I've gotten rid of the problematic aspect of being a bound servant or even as a pretend servant to Tellou in earlier drafts, but kept the struggle that Q always felt about people fearing him or admiring him merely because of his appearance. 

-While Tellou studied more necromancy under another master, Q got his equivalent of high school and college level education running an assortment of businesses like ghost writing essay papers for rich but lazy prep boys.

-Q may be gay, but he's a bit of Ebeneezer Scrooge in his focus on money first and looking for love last. 

-He's the guy financing/enabling Tellou's quest for immortality: Q figured while Tellou's risking his neck unearthing tombs and unleashing portals, he might as well pick up a couple of artifacts here and there Q would be more than happy to sell off/sell back to the right buyer. In exchange Tellou gets funds and also information to tips and leads. The pharmacy store Tellou and Alunwey live in was a wedding present from Q. 

-Q cannot cast magic, but he can activate magical items. His bird familiar originates from his favorite walking staff and functions as a speedy messenger.
