Free Empire of the Low Isles wrote:RAISE YOUR HAND IF WANT TO BE PART OF A MONSTER HUNTER GROUP! We have a group in Wyzkia that's being brought together for a plot Dough is putting together. I would recommend you have a second character if you get bored easy because Dough is a bit of a slow poster. Those already signed up for the group are a Witcher, a bad ass Mage woman, a 3500 year old vampire eating vampire, and a void elemental that killed Grimgor Ironhide.

Talking about that, let me warn you already that having Frederica in the group might cause some problems with... Pretty much everyone given her sole goal and hobby is to "kill people and enjoy the suffering they show in their last moments".
While the main characters will be mostly safe because Frederica's flawless reasoning toward them can be pretty much summed by the following : "I kinda want to try and murder you violently so I can bask into the despair you show while you die horribly but I also think that if I leave you be, you could possibly get even more happy and virtuous and therefore give me even more pleasure when I will try and murder you violently", the same can't be said of pretty much any non playable character so you may have to expect some rather huge amount of civilian casualties if you just let her roam free. She won't just randomly kill people in the street à la Lucy from Elfen Lied but she's quite likely to cause "disappearances" in the neighborhood.
R.Ply speaking however, the rest of the group (and your vampire especially) could quite possibly rein that "quirk" of her in by using psychological blackmail and other things of the kind so to "tame" and control her.

My plan, to be honest, was to have Dough's mage reign her in by binding her to some sort of artifact or to her will. Like, making her a familiar.

But I can also think of some ways to pull the sadism... like, out of her, or distract that part.

Just be careful about the fact that the adage : "if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you." may take a very literal meaning if you try and go with the first path, thousands of year olds elemental are harder to bind than your average lesser demon after all. :p

The second is probably safer tho maybe less efficient. Frederica thinks a lot like a child would so it could indeed be quite well exploited.

To be honest, I would like to go with the first, because it would be far more interesting and to be honest less mentally taxing on me. But it's up to Dough. And you wouldn't be in the meeting, it's just you would probably ambush the group on their way to a place.

Given the trail of corpses she's going to leave behind her, you're quite likely to stumble upon her if you go monster-hunting anyway. You could probably easily kick her ass as she's too full of herself to consider anyone to be a threat to her, presently, and use it as an opportunity to "subjugate" her.

Well good luck trying to make an almost 300 year old elf whos had lifetimes to study dark magics and has a very powerful following, not to mention two others who would come to aid should he needed it one a dwarf who has a small but strong private army, and the other an orc who controls a strong mercenary band. If you wanna go that route all power to you my friend.

How about a misunderstanding? Like encountering him and his undead while hunting a monster or perhaps stumbling upon a village being attacked by undead and bandits only to find out later the undead are actually protecting against the bandits? I don't know XD

On another note, I can see Alex getting along with Ryker rather well.

The void elemental will ambush them along the way to a destination and they will be able to subjugate in one of two ways. Way one: Valeria (if she's there) gets to magic the thing into her familiar and deal with reigning her in. Way two: Sasha gets to try and mindfuck it.
