Shape
Archetype: Human Mage
Shape and the rest of his gang have
devoted nearly all of their magical skills to the science of physical
manipulation and deception. Using their combined skills, including masking, they
can transform themselves, and each other, into virtually anybody with such
accuracy that virtually any test, including DNA typing, will fail to pick up
their true identity. Many of the spells they use are custom made. The three also
have formed their own magical group for initiation purposes.
Shape is cocky and loud and, although he is the leader of the group,
is probably their weakest link. Unlike the other two members Shape has
never acquired the acting skills needed to take on an individuals personality.
Although vocal and physical manipulation takes care of most of an individual's
attributes Shape must still be able to imitate the personality of the individual
he has acquired the identity of. He is quite bad at this and usually takes
on the identity of the least talkative individual.
Shape and his group use their deception skills to acquire people's identities
for the purpose of committing a wide range of crimes, ranging from theft
to framing to faked deaths.
Delta
Archetype: Human Mage
Delta and her husband, Marx, are skilled
in intelligence and covert actions as well as magic. They gather information
about the target thus enabling them to more easily imitate the individuals
habits, personality, and so on. Delta is about as cocky as Shape but she has the
habit of taking things personally too often, occasionally transforming an
exchange of smart ass banter into a fist fight.
Marx
Archetype: Human Mage
It's amazing that Delta and Marx have
stayed married as long as they have. Marx is somewhat the oddball of the group,
taking everything way too seriously and possessing virtually no sense of humor.
When preparing for a job he centers completely on it and gets pissed when Delta
and Shape enjoy themselves too much. Secretly he suspects they are having an
affair, a suspicion which is completely unfounded. Marx usually plays the role
of the most complicated individual the group is attempting to imitate.
