[QUOTE="CanadienneBacon, post: 6456829, member: 11146"] I hope I have not usurped your blaster role. Not my intent. It's white slavery, totally underground. Cass's blindness is integral to my character concept. He's a seer. Like Cassandra from Greek mythology (thus, the name "Cass" and "Anders" (because he's a man)). Cass has a crappy Wisdom (which admittedly negatively affects his Perception), but I get the Blindsight feat later on, and have 30' darkvision right now. I see Cass as being heavily reliant on his extra-sensory perception. He lives half in a dream and half in the here-and-now. His out-of-touch-with-reality nature--a gift of Asmodeus--makes Cass dangerous. The assault on the child is my private play on Cassandra's abuse in the Greek tragedies. I want to toy with gender stereotypes, misogyny, and the Rape of Persephone...from the assaulter's point of view. Because of the assault on the child, the clouded vision Oracle curse fits my idea of Cass maybe slightly marginally better than a curse resulting from the barracks fire, but I'm certainly willing to have a gander. I'm not seeing a "you were horribly burned" oracle's curse in the PRD. Can you point me in the right direction? Also, lest you worry that I intend to either make a Cass a pain to play with in-game or myself become a thorn in anyone's side, let me reassure the group. I don't intend either. I'll make sure I keep Cass's misogyny latent, and I don't intend to play Cass with an eye for creating intra-party conflict. I'm a get-along-with-everyone kind of girl. [/QUOTE]
