Please watch your step, there’s (more) new blood on the ground…
Greetings students, staff, and all resident termites!

Ever had that one friend who invites you out at 10PM for ice cream - and three hours later you’re wearing fireman pants, missing a tooth, and chasing a cow down a highway?

...yeah that one.

Meet Fisher Drosselmeyer, the living embodiment of “it seemed like a good idea at the time” especially if the idea involves cunning, creativity, and three pounds of crazy in a two ounce bag. Fisher is an Intermediate level student though this is (sort of) her third year at St. Margaret's; she had to leave school early last year due to ~~getting accidentally cursed~~ health issues. Her witchcraft deals with physical enchantments. In practical terms this puts her somewhere between talisman artisan and supernatural plumber. (Fisher herself votes for the latter.)

Fisher has the tendency to scavenge for craft materials and a very liberal definition of what material is considered “available.” She’ll “borrow” anything she can pry loose, but the items will usually be returned in a day. Or two. A week tops, honest. So if your bed is suddenly missing a leg or your toothbrush has gone inexplicably bald...

Think that it’s possible your wunderkind ran into Fisher before? Here’s some potential common ground:

⚔WANTED⚔ ♜ nocturnal camaraderie: Fisher’s an insomniac. If your darling keeps late hours, then they’ll likely to trip over her at some point. (...Literally; Fisher doesn’t understand chairs.)
♟ muscle & moxie: Super strong friends - or bribable acquaintances - willing to help haul junk across campus. Preferably with no questions asked.
♜ team mad!science: Sure, Fisher specialty is magical craftsmanship but she’s a got a lot of love for lab work. That, and tiny killer robots.
♟ lab rats & lunch dates: Fisher will buy lunch/dinner/candy to anybody who’s willing to let her “analyze” them for 45 minutes. Look, in this school is that really the weirdest thing your monster would do for a pizza?
♞ shameless enablers & cockeyed conspirators: Anyone who participated - willing or otherwise - in Fisher’s nonsense from earlier school years. This included such civic-minded activities as: 3 AM Jello banquets, banned book "concerts", reverse-strip checkers tournaments, popcorn snowball wars, and the Great Pancake Bacchanal (a.k.a. Debacle) of 2017.

⚠WARNING(s)⚠ ☓ Do NOT allow Fisher sodium before 9AM. Doing so is akin to pumping a six-pack of Red Bull into a hummingbird, except in this case the hummingbird will turn mean, maniac, and likely try to sabotage the drinking fountains.
☓ Do NOT believe her ~~when~~ if Fisher claims to have misunderstood your English. She didn’t, she’s just being a jerk (or trying to avoid punishment.)
☠ Do NOT let her near large animals - especially horses. Because 1) apocalyptic allergies and 2) she will sneeze on everything you love. Twice.

On a more personal note: ‘ello, I’m Lee! (Your second one, I think?) I’m on EST time but am very email friendly and, being the Worst Employee, will 110% reply when I should be working. Sadly, GChat isn’t much of an option. ☹ If you’re keen on threading via GDocs, though, then hey hey hey: marry me, gorgeous.

Hayden – Finally a fellow fox, yay! Completely agree on them being classmates prior to her abrupt departure from school. Is he one of Kitsune mentors per chance?

John – I don't know how much failing a year will bond these two, but the creative pharmaceuticals a whole other thing. Fisher is going to be handling her recovery very, very poorly. And isn't it always better to make bad decisions with a friend? 

Tomi – I'm going to be honest with you; there is no world that I can think where Fisher doesn't call him The Batman. None. Sorry, Tomi-kun. Also question: can Tomi reform is even one of his bats is separated from the rest?

Madame Pearl - How good is your kindly genie as spotting damaged kids? Because, hoo boy, Fisher is bringing baggage for her school year.

Max - Ok, so this one I have a lot of curiosity about. For example, being the sort of demon he is, how does he react to people currently feeling like victims of their own pride? Fisher's accident left her with a lot of anger, some of if self-directed (she feels to have failed to rescue herself) and I was wondering if that's something that would ping Max's radar.

That, or they fight about James Bond movies.

Hayden: he wasn’t asked to be mentor, alas!

John: he’s having an intervention right now. We’ll see how it plays out and how willing he is to risk taking again.

Tomi: In these his early stages I would say yes, he needs every bat back to reform. As he advances he’ll only need most. BATMAN.

Jojo: I’d like to say she’s pretty perceptive. She does everything she can to help the students feel safe and cared for, so if one is clearly troubled with major behavioral changes, she will reach out. Is Fisher in any of Jojo’s classes?

Max: hmm tricky question. At least in this game’s canon it’s safer to err on the side of demons being more like humans than being able to inflict their Sin forcefully to others (But humans still think they do this because humans are too dumb to admit their own faults). And sensing their Sin in others? I think it’s easy for a demon to recognize it, yes. They know the traits and encourage them. In Fisher’s case, I think Max might actually help her restore her pride rather than feeling victimized by it. Does that help?
