ID: SD059
Name: Mnemosyne Eumeleia
Suit: Diamonds
Rank: King
Gender: Female
Animal: Canine
Region: Yarrow Gardens
Dealer: Bee
Notes:
She has an uncanny knack for singing, something that could develop into a powerful magic when she increases in rank.
Mutations:
Medusa hair. It is fully under control, though semi-sentient and will meander if she doesn't pay too much attention to it. If she gets angry it tends to flail around as well. The result of the potion was in fact genetic. It's pink in color with one or two purple highlights. She's pretty and deadly! Though killing someone with the hair would be a pretty rough task as it can still rip, tear, and be cut. Though it does grow back with alarming speed.
At the request of my darling Sera, the pronunciation is "nee-MAWS-i-nee."

Human:
Notes: Her Human form has affected her hair...it may become slightly sentient...or maybe it's just channeling more of her emotions? Who knows, it can't tell us so we may never know, but she'd best be careful if she's angry...it could seriously throttle someone now, especially as cards 10 and below can no longer break the strands with their fingers....

Basic Magical Ability:
She can act charismatic and persuasive at times, whether or not she actually has the natural charm and grace to pull it off.
Moderate Magical Ability:
When activated, she can decipher up to two languages of the player's choosing. These languages are in addition to the common tongue and the Diamond house language.
Strong Magical Ability:
When activated, she can cast a lie-detector spell on a card off any suit and of a rank lesser or equal to their own, once per month. Cards of equal rank would be aware of the spell, but cards of lesser rank would not.
Powerful Magical Ability:
When activated, she can fly for approximately half an hour per day. Winged Diamonds can use this ability for effortless, perfectly controlled flight. This takes a minimal level of concentration and she can do it as easily as she walks or runs.
Jack's Ability:
She can sing one of two rather soft, sad tunes that will have the following effects.
1) Can calm any other SD's (except for Queens) rage, no matter how large or small, and put them into a sense of quiet contentment.
2) Can urge any SD of rank 8 or lower into an enormous bout of depression which will render the SD horribly unhappy until the effect wears off. (This song is very dangerous to use around Torquehelms)
These songs effects will last for one hour and can each be sung once per week.
Jack's Ability Boost:
Both songs work on ANY SD, including Queens, the only things exempt to this spell are Jokers by die roll (PM the Admin) and Jack Rabbits. The depression caused by the second one is very intense and consuming, causing the SD to focus on some event or person in their life that makes them unhappy and amplifying the emotional pain to such an all-consuming level that they focus on their self-pity and misery to the exclusion of almost all else for up to an hour. If the person or event is particularly traumatic, this can lead to the SD hurting themselves or (if they are already extremely depressed) even committing suicide. Suicide cannot be forced however and if that is what the caster is pushing for, the spell could backfire on her...
King's Ability:
She is now able to cause an opponent's hair or fur to turn against them. Once per week she is able to cause the opponent's hair or fur to twist cruelly against their bodies, so tightly that they may feel like they are being scalped. She can't actually force their hair to tear itself out or to truly damage itself, her natural affinity with hair not allowing itself to be hurt when she commands it. The hair/fur will curl tightly to the skin and be impossible to straighten for one day, causing the opponent rather impressive full-body pain, though not enough to really drop them.
If the hair or fur is long, however, she can also cause it to trip and/or tie itself around them. Including causing the hair to tie around another person's face, though it won't strangle them...yet...
King's Ability Addition:
The opponent's hair is now fully under Mnem's control. It will bend to her will horribly, twisting and curling as before, though still not to the point of tearing itself out. Instead she can make the hair or fur grow longer for a short period of time. Long enough to tie up one limb completely and long enough for a few strands to reach down and begin to strangle their host. The strangulation process will take a full half hour unless the hair is cut, and it will try to kill them unless cut, there is no other way to stop the spell...short of setting their own hair on fire, that is.
Amazing Ability:
Once a week, she is capable of causing one other person near her to begin vomiting hair. Copious amounts of hair, the color of which is Mnem's choosing, will be forced out of their mouths for a full minute, nearly but not quite enough, to suffocate them. The hair is thick, matted, and often leaves an incredibly foul aftertaste, tangling around the tongue as it goes in order to increase the need to gag in the victim.
After the minute has passed, the hair will amass together and attempt to trip or tie the victim's feet together, but only after the miinute of severe puking has passed. The hair will never attack the victim above the legs, but it will do all it can otherwise.
Amazing Ability:
Once a week, she is now capable of causing her hair to slowly change into actual snakes within a span of ten seconds. These snakes, all five of them, are rooted to her skull with the exception of one at the base of her spine which can leave her head for up to one minute before it dies. Each snake is capable of delivering one bite to an opponent that contains venom, the rest of their bites are simply rather painful after that. the venom causes the immediate area of the bite to go entirely numb. So if the snake catches a limb, the hand and or leg may go numb and useless. If the snake catches the face, the opponent will go blind and be unable to speak. the venom will wear off after one day unless bitten in the face, then that SD will be blind in their right eye permanently. The sight of her head writhing with thick snakes is enough to cause Cards ranked five and lower to pass out from fear at once and can cause especially weak-willed Jacks and lower to run the hell away.
Hair Boost:
Her hair is now virtually unbreakable. Only rather powerful Queens can break its grip and some Jokers. Other than that, the Cards are stuck until either she frees them, or they move on...
