Snip

Snip Beastbane (born summer 13 494 [~2003] ) is a furborn researcher and surgeon, hematomancer and necromancer. She is a follower of Barnebos and was loyal to the Ranch, where she was raised and has contributed many achievement in the field of fleshomancy; notably creating entirely new speicies and performed operations changing the very nature of the body.

In 13 514 [2023], Snip stubled upon a dimentional anomaly which, to her knowledge, transportalated her into a different universe entirely, of which's rules were vastly different. There, the influence of the gods were null, much less her own; neither fae nor monsters were to be, and only a handful of occults had access to Magic, which in itself was vastly different from the weave she was familiar with. Cut off from her faith and friends, she managed to find one familiar Soul, very similar to one she's met on Kand'hur. Nicolay, the Bear, turned her into a New World Vampire, and facilitated her integration into the group she now pledges alleigance to, the Savage machines.

Abilities

Snip has developped a wide array of abilities from her time growing in the ranch; and obtained many more by ascending to new world vampirism.

Overall, strenght, cardio, speed, vision, hearing, smell, and other physical attributes have scaled up in efficiency.

Seamless Metamorphosis (Protean)

Able to either fully or partially shape shift self into any speicie she's familiar with, even if said specie does not exist on the New World; regardless of mass, origin, or rarity- altough entirely faeric creatures (such as darkling, ondines, sylphs), lacking a physical body, are not possible to shift into.

Kand'hurian Skills

Hematomancy

Able to temporarily or permanently control, trigger, alter, repair or construct parts of a physical Body (i.e. flesh, organs, hormones, tissue, hormones and more). While permanent changes are easier to incur in prenatal subjects, lifelong alteration have been successful in the past, such as the the alteration of the gastrointestinal tract of a jackalope from a herbivore diet to a fully carnivorous one (See Sock)

Able to rise, from complete or partial corpses, a re-living being known as Revenants. Snip specializes in creating bodies for spirits to inhabit; most notably Alice, a banshee for whom Snip has grown an entire body for her to inhabit, able to transport her anchor. Another success is in Nellie, a pieced together flesh golem imbued with a soul of her own.

Life on the New World

Snip was phased into the new world on the dusk of June 21st, 2023; and was immediatly hit by a motorcycle driven by Nicolay , passing out on the spot. Nicolay, not wanting to let this strange girl just die, fed her his blood and brought her back to the Savage Machine HQ, where he watched over her until she awoke. When she did tough, she recognised him as her mononc'ico; or at least, a close similie of him. After a rocky start, Snip afraid this Nico had stolen hers, both came to the conclusion that Snip no longer was on the plane she was born on; and while neither knew how or why nearly identical Nicolays exist both on Kand'hur and on the new world, they realised they werent much different, and Snip could trust him.

Over just the next few hours, Snip was able to demonstrate her talents, and discover new ones. After meeting with Grunty and Grenadine, two very important members of the Savage Machines, Snip was able to demonstrate them her Hematomancy, tranquilizing the delerious Coffee into a peaceful slumber. This was significant, as it proved her alteration was not reliant on the influence of Barnébos, or at least, wasn't anymore. She then showcased her butchering proficiency, expertly cutting up a test subject, which was the perfect occasion for Snip to note the slight variations between the humans she knew and the one of this world. Using her fleshomancy, she keep the subject alive for most of the procedure. She would later test her necromantic abilities as well; and while she sucessfully rose a corpse, spectral matter doesnt seem to generate here; matter which would allow them to stay risen without her direct influence manipulating the body.

On top of the abilities she's carried over from her previous world, her new vampiric condition, bestowed to her by Nicolay, revealed some new capabilities. As soon she awoke, she realised all the senses were sharper, and her physical abilities enhanced. She'd soon discover she could distort her perception of time, moving at such speed time seem to slow. The most significan change however, was her newfound shapeshifting ability. This was something she never was able to accomplish on kand'hur. After drinking a myserious liquid offered by Marcellus, Snip gained the ability to shift, partially or entirely into any animal she's encountered. That is what was advertised, at least. As it turns out, Snip has the ability to shift into any creature she's encountered; managing to shift into seemingly any being with a physical body- altough monsters are slightly more tricky. However, folk, dragons or ogroids are no issue! This new skill came naturally to her, Snip being able to control it quickly and precicely with ease, instictivly even.

Snip was quickly integrated into the Savage Machine; adding her bloody handprint to the ceremonial mural barely hours after her arrival; having officially been accepted into the family. With Nico as her mentor, she is to become the official Guardian of the Savage Machine, a big responsibility she hopes to be up to the task of.

Accompanied by Nico, Snip went to get geared up at a secondairy location, meeting Vicky, who designed her a entirely new wardrobe. With Grenadine and Grunty joining them, they barely had time to enjoy the updated look that they were put to the test. Enthralled mortals, disguised as Coffee, attacked the compound. A violent battle was fought, each Savage using their abilities to it's greatest; seemingly atteining new height. As dust fell, it was revealed the attack was the machinations of a certain Gabriel, an ennemy vampire set on brigning back the Queen of Vampires, Lilith, as well as the one responsible for pullling Snip from her original world. He was disposed of; this version of him, at least.
