Fear Me, Love Me...
Yeah, I'm sure every single one of you can finish that quote.
How come no one thought to play him before? Am I really the first to bring him to WC?
This is Dawn, bringing you Jareth the Goblin King. From Labyrinth. If you don't know that movie then... OMG GO GET IT AND WATCH IT! NAO!
His bio is in his journal, but a few Jareth fun facts:
1. He can shapeshift, but only as an owl.
2. He likes watching people. Seriously. In that creepy stalker sort of way.
3. He is extremely vain.
4. He loathes his goblins and will be quite glad to be rid of them, actually.
5. He thinks he's better than pretty much everyone.
6. He likes women. Pretty, smart women.
7. He is movie-verse only. Nothing in that Manga sequel they made is part of this characterization of him.
8. There is no #8
9. He resents his position as Goblin King, but likes being in charge of things.
10. Schadenfreude. He loves it.
I'm going to be playing him as really displaced, confused and a bit scared (though he'd never admit it) at being taken away from what he knows and being dumped in the City. So if he comes off a bit... off, to your characters. It's the sudden displacement that has him panicking. The whole being stuck is really going to bother him.
Let's play!
