Dowsing Odd relay crew · pre-generated Delver · Reanimated corpse who heals allies and exploits enemy weaknesses


Art: Time Without Tide Quickstart (Chaosium) — official character art.

Played by: Tucker

Appearance

Tall and gaunt, grey-green skin stitched together, long lank hair beneath a tall battered top hat, tipped politely with a red-gloved hand. A long dark greatcoat over a waistcoat and tie, bandages at the shin, and a doctor’s bag in the other hand.

Background

Halfway through their own dissection, a corpse sat up and waved. The doctor performing the autopsy died of shock on the spot, and the corpse helped itself to his name, his medical certificate and his love of medicine. “Doctor Vespal” has no pulse, no memory and no actual training — but the Delver’s Guild takes anyone who can use a relay, and the Unknown supplies an endless parade of fascinating injuries to poke at. Vespal has never felt more alive.
