A pop-punk collaborative in the [[Cyber Renaissance|CR era]] known for hosting their annual Midsummer Mayhem event. Some members are purely involved for the opportunity for artistic expression, but others have a more dogmatic view of their values.[[File:BurningOwlMan.jpg|alt=Burning owlbear effigy at Midsummer Mayhem|thumb|Burning owlbear effigy at Midsummer Mayhem]]

=== Midsummer Mayhem ===
One part festival and two parts dumpster fire, Midsummer Mayhem is the crowning jewel of the collab’s yearly gatherings. The celebration consists of constant, wanton destruction of property with seemingly no sense of purpose. Short breaks from the chaos involve setting drinks on fire and downing them while only sustaining minor burns. Performances throughout the festival evoke themes of pain, chaos, and misfortune, and crowds are known to heckle performers off stage if there is a distinct lack of profanity.

Premium pass attendees have access to an exclusive, subterranean beer garden rumored to be decorated with bioluminescent plants.

=== Controversies ===

==== Funeral Rites ====
Misfortune Co.’s more fervent followers are known to request and carry out morbid last wishes. These typically involve dumping the deceased body on the property of a celebrity, politician, or other noteworthy figure. The corpses are always wrapped in a cloth embroidered with the phrase “F**K S**T UP”, and the cloth occasionally hides surprises such as explosives, paint, or salt. Some see these practices as barbaric and crude, but others secretly cheer on these acts as “sticking it to the man”.

==== Gambling, Scams ====
Though Midsummer Mayhem rakes in a good bit of cash for the Co., the members are known to acquire more funds in other ways. They’ve been cited numerous times for hosting under the table gambling rings and have been accused of using rigged dice. Less notable enterprises include money-making schemes that play on the fears and insecurities of their targets. Examples include useless supplements for preventing hair loss or selling “mystery boxes” filled with junk.

FemaleDog: /* Escapades */

'''Omen''' ''(pronouns she/her)'' is a [[Tiefling]] sorceress born some time late in 795 PR. She does not have any particular allegiances or follows any faith, but she is aware of the influence of the divines. Most of her actions would be considered '''chaotic neutral'''.

[[File:Omen Portrait.png|alt=A tiefling woman looks at the camera with a slightly amused expression. She has purple skin, pure gold eyes, and black hair tied up in a bun.|thumb|Omen, the Tiefling sorceress, looks on with an amused expression.]]

== Physical Description ==
Omen is a Tiefling woman that stands 5'4" and weighs about 120 lbs. She has purple skin, black hair, and pure gold eyes. Her tail measures roughly three feet in length and ends in an arrow point. Parts of her body are covered in a thin layer of golden scales (See: Draconic Bloodline) and her black horns stand tall like a gazelle's. Her sharp ears are pierced and her teeth are slightly pointed. She smells of charred wood and something metallic... perhaps blood?

== Personality ==
Omen can find a sick sense of amusement in most things, owing to her cynical worldview that most things will go wrong. Despite that, she's put in a lot of effort in making her own luck, and has little patience with people that can't take care of themselves. She will hardly ever turn down a free meal, but is slow to trust. Omen also feels a sense of duty in helping those who help her, so that no debt is left unpaid. She will go out of her way to help those that she feels society has left behind.

== Origins ==
Not much is known about Omen's heritage. As a newborn, she was found outside of a local brothel where the proprietors were known for having a soft spot for abandoned things. There she grew up with a band of misfits born or adopted by the ladies of the house. As generous as they were to offer her a place to sleep, Omen had to start pulling her own weight when she became old enough to pick pockets. This was the path to her '''urchin''' childhood, with most days spent dodging street corners after slashing coin purses.

== Powers and Abilities ==
As a sorceress, she was born with magic in her blood. Omen primarily uses fire evocation magic, but will also use illusion magic to help with more stealth-oriented tasks. Her magic is specialized for subtlety and group endeavors, hinting at a past of heists and other seedy activities.

=== Draconic Bloodline ===
Omen is no wizard, but she's determined that her fiery powers must have come from some type of dragon. She's always been much more tolerant of the heat, and around puberty she noticed the appearance of thin scales along her arms, chest, and legs. A trail of smoke can be seen trailing from her mouth and nose when she gets particularly frustrated.

== Companions ==

=== Hope ===
Omen always carries around a smell pet mouse named "Hope". With their short lifespans, these friends invariably die within a year or two. This doesn't stop Omen from quickly befriending another critter and passing on the name. Her current little friend is particularly fond of sharp, pungent cheeses with odors reminiscent of dwarf feet.

== Escapades ==

=== Seglock University ===
She was spotted recently at the celebration at Seglock University, soon after the erection of the Sunwell. Omen knew there would be tons of free food at such an event and couldn't resist stopping by. Sure, she hadn't actually played any part in this draconic nonsense, but with her luck chances are this feast would be considered an "advance payment". As fortune would have it, the festivities were cut short by some ruckus within the university, where she aided in torching a few goblins and orcs (after pocketing some leftovers, of course). She aided a few other adventurers in rescuing a couple students and professors, but not before she got into a ''minor altercation'' (slap fight) with one Professor Hargraves in a very cramped hallway.

Shortly after the attack, she worked with a team of adventurers to uncover what had happened on the day of the attack. They learned that Professor Hargraves was a former star pupil of Horatio Cheshire, and the former had turned down work with the latter. Hargraves had done extensive research on mutations, which were a likely target of the attack considering the presence of Cheshire goblins. During this investigation, she was able to get a wax mold of Ltn. Steve Torso's signet coin for unknown and likely nefarious purposes.

=== Encounters with Bleucorundum ===
Archie Stewart recruited Omen and several others to find a sapphire dragon, based on a prophecy given by the Crying Scryer. Before leaving for the mission, Omen spoke with Brenna and they bonded over their shared golden dragon heritage. They had to "find balance" to make their way through the lair, which involved balancing the alignments of the group members. The sapphire dragon gave several cryptic clues regarding its goals, including:

"Only if we find each other is there hope." "Tell them that the sapphire one is looking for the amethyst (further below)" "One works high above, and another very far away, beyond the material."

Bleucorundum had a (quartz?) crystal dragon egg in the lair, which did not yet have a fully developed mind capable of being communed with. Upon trying to communicate, though, it did not seem inherently evil. The sapphire dragon gifted the party with magical items with the condition being that they could not hurt or heal dragons, lest the items lose their power. This magical gift also came with the boon of additional charismatic sway when speaking with dragons.

Several months later, Omen found Bleucorundum's lair again after having forgot where it was. This marked the end of a journey escorting the silver dragon Sro to the safe haven being provided there. The adventuring party had carefully navigated the shadowy lands over two weeks and narrowly avoided notice by The One Who Waits. She was almost tempted to abandon the mission to join a group of bandits in Biannal who had tried to recruit her, but she was swayed by the payoff of her current mission and the appeal of working for something larger than herself.

FemaleDog: /* Notable Tieflings */

'''Tieflings''' are a half-race in Quelmar, affected with demonic or infernal blood, brought onto their family typically through a deal with a devil, or the curse of a demon.

== About ==
Some tieflings are born displaying their fiendish heritage outright, while others, especially newly affected bloodlines, may appear normal at birth, and slowly reveal their infection over time.

It is possible to suppress a tiefling's cursed appearance and powers at birth through holy ritual, though the upkeep of said rituals becomes harder over time, and the more the suppressed creature exerts themselves (especially if their Tiefling heritage includes any magical powers), the more likely they will expose their truth.
