Wild sandy blonde/brown hair pulled into a maze of tails and braids that frame a perpetually sunny, smiling, cherubic and sun darkened face...though the hair is often pinned down under a leather cap that has flaps down the sides that cover her ears, and a pair of goggles that perch high on her forehead when not in use. Her clothes are simple...a thin white sleeveless shirt and pair of shorts that go down to her somewhat knobby knees, but are quite loose fitting and covered in pockets. It's what goes OVER the clothes. First, a loose top of black mesh. Over that are belts. Belts over her shoulders, around her midriff, around her legs, crisscrossing her chest. On the belts are...things. Strange doohickies made of brass and bronze, sporting tiny tubes and nozzles and other, less recognizable protuberances. Little vials of oddly colored liquids. Tiny rolls of parchment and paper. Mysterious, and ominous somehow, orbs of blown glass with sparks of light deep inside. Somewhere in the chaos there's a little teddy bear affixed to her. With her spritely cuteness and overall sense of disorganization, Deezy is hard to take seriously...until the explosions start.

It is an ancient library, somehow stored in the crystal rods, and causing words to appear on the parchment as asked.

Though known as being a reclusive and isolationist culture, interacting with other people primarily to engage in shrewd bargaining, Deezy was always something of a standout. Curious and brilliant, she found little stimulation in the oral histories of the clan, choosing instead to sneak off to the old forbidden ruins preserved from an age now gone by the desert dryness and sands. Despite more than once getting in trouble for this, especially since her mother was a great shaman of the tribe and thus high expectations were on Deezy, she persisted...there were stories coded in those ancient stones. Secrets buried in the grit-encrusted devices sometimes still left behind. She became experienced at finding and bypassing the various nasty traps left by the ancients to protect their secrets...and sometimes left by the zealous among her own people. While she couldn't quite work out how the ancients made things work...she did something perhaps just as amazing. Using the tricks of mechanics and engineering she gleaned from countless nights prying apart remnant devices, and the spiritual magic learned from her mother and acolytes, Deezy managed to create machines powered by magic.</p><p></p><p>There was a great controversy in the tribe at this. Some thought that this was a worthy pursuit, and that they should all go to the ruins and learn more of it. Perhaps, they said, this was how the glories of the past could be reborn! Others insisted it was sacrilege and a path to hubris and madness that had led to the destruction of paradise and their own eternity of duty to guard and protect the ruins and relics left behind. Still others considered it foolishness...a trick to make toys that had no value for survival in the wastelands and therefore unworthy of time or effort. Amidst all this, Deezy came to the decision to leave. Not just to spare her people the convulsions of such divisiveness, but also for her own purposes. In her time trading with the great cities in the west, she had come across mention of other kinds of magical technology...great winged ships and devices that harnessed the raw power of magic to do incredible, even unthinkable things. She spent the greater part of a month to create a massive bodyguard and imbue it with purpose and movement...then set forth to learn of the world, of magic and machine, of the past, and of herself.[/sblock]</p><p></p><p><strong>Minions: Effigies and Homonculi</strong></p><p>[sblock=BILLY]A monstrous tower of riveted bronze armor plates over a brass and copper superstructure of struts, hissing tubes and junctures, and clacking, grinding clockwork gears, Billy stands about nine feet tall and about half that wide at his shoulders. His massive chest slopes down to a peculiarly narrow waist, then flares out again into a pair of squat, heavily built legs. His arms are actually even more heavily built, long and thick and tipped with three-fingered hands with retracting scythelike claws and opposable thumbs. Billy's 'head' is squat and low, making him seem disconcertingly decapitated until it raises up and spreads massive mechanical mandibles, ideal for pulping flesh and crushing bone. Technically, she refers to him as 'Billy two-point-oh," and implies that Billy three is already designed, just waiting for her to take the time, effort and expense needed to construct.</p><p></p><p>Effigy GRAY RENDER</p><p>Large Construct</p><p>Hit Dice: 10d10+30 (85 hp) </p><p>Initiative: -1</p><p>Speed: 30 ft.

She continues to tinker with the devices, trying to improve their output without causing a catastrophic explosion. - +5 competence to Jump, 2500 - Feather Fall, 2000+50%=3000 [B]Tome of Worldly Memory[/B], 1500 Discovered by Deezy at the same ruin she obtained the Thinking Cap at, this is a pair of crystal rods, between which is strung a single sheet of parchment. With the aid of the Cap, Deezy managed to figure out how to use it...and it is one of the reasons she is so well educated. It is an ancient library, somehow stored in the crystal rods, and causing words to appear on the parchment as asked. With a few moments to call up the information desired, the Tome can provide helpful information on just about any topic, though it is by no means a definitive or complete guide. - 1 std action to get +5 comp bonus on Knowledge skill, 1 min to get bonus if untrained. These items were purchased by Deezy while traveling and represent 'ordinary' magic items. Wyrmfang Amulet, 1350 (given to Billy) Rod of Frost, 1lb, 1400 Vest of Resistance +1, 1000[/sblock] [sblock=Background]Deezy was, and still is by most accounts, a member of a semi-nomadic tribe of people eking out an existence in the great Eastern Desert. Though known as being a reclusive and isolationist culture, interacting with other people primarily to engage in shrewd bargaining, Deezy was always something of a standout. Curious and brilliant, she found little stimulation in the oral histories of the clan, choosing instead to sneak off to the old forbidden ruins preserved from an age now gone by the desert dryness and sands. Despite more than once getting in trouble for this, especially since her mother was a great shaman of the tribe and thus high expectations were on Deezy, she persisted...there were stories coded in those ancient stones. Secrets buried in the grit-encrusted devices sometimes still left behind. She became experienced at finding and bypassing the various nasty traps left by the ancients to protect their secrets...and sometimes left by the zealous among her own people. While she couldn't quite work out how the ancients made things work...she did something perhaps just as amazing. Using the tricks of mechanics and engineering she gleaned from countless nights prying apart remnant devices, and the spiritual magic learned from her mother and acolytes, Deezy managed to create machines powered by magic. There was a great controversy in the tribe at this. Some thought that this was a worthy pursuit, and that they should all go to the ruins and learn more of it. Perhaps, they said, this was how the glories of the past could be reborn! Others insisted it was sacrilege and a path to hubris and madness that had led to the destruction of paradise and their own eternity of duty to guard and protect the ruins and relics left behind. Still others considered it foolishness...a trick to make toys that had no value for survival in the wastelands and therefore unworthy of time or effort. Amidst all this, Deezy came to the decision to leave. Not just to spare her people the convulsions of such divisiveness, but also for her own purposes. In her time trading with the great cities in the west, she had come across mention of other kinds of magical technology...great winged ships and devices that harnessed the raw power of magic to do incredible, even unthinkable things. She spent the greater part of a month to create a massive bodyguard and imbue it with purpose and movement...then set forth to learn of the world, of magic and machine, of the past, and of herself.[/sblock] [b]Minions: Effigies and Homonculi[/b] [sblock=BILLY]A monstrous tower of riveted bronze armor plates over a brass and copper superstructure of struts, hissing tubes and junctures, and clacking, grinding clockwork gears, Billy stands about nine feet tall and about half that wide at his shoulders. His massive chest slopes down to a peculiarly narrow waist, then flares out again into a pair of squat, heavily built legs. His arms are actually even more heavily built, long and thick and tipped with three-fingered hands with retracting scythelike claws and opposable thumbs. Billy's 'head' is squat and low, making him seem disconcertingly decapitated until it raises up and spreads massive mechanical mandibles, ideal for pulping flesh and crushing bone. Technically, she refers to him as 'Billy two-point-oh," and implies that Billy three is already designed, just waiting for her to take the time, effort and expense needed to construct.

Deezy is still working on a way to see what it sees, or let it replay what it's seen. Until then, its usefulness as a spy is pretty limited, so she keeps it nearby her, where it can help signal danger and protect her.
