Characters With This Aspect

Dupe

Rico Bial

Rico Bial, known as Dupe, is a human fighter from South Aerovia and a former arena trainee whose discipline was forged under pressure long before he reached Von Queef University. His Witchborn power manifests as form duplication, letting him split a temporal shard from himself so a second strike lands beside his own. Now aligned with the Reborn, Rico carries himself with Lawful Neutral focus: controlled, practical, and difficult to rattle. He is not the loudest combatant in the room, but when the moment comes, one Rico becomes two—and the mistake becomes his enemy’s.

AliveHumanForm Duplication

Retinue

Sinclair

Sinclair, known as Retinue, is a void djinni butler and arcane attendant to the Von Queef family, serving as both polished steward and strategic operative at Von Queef Manor and VQU. Publicly refined and efficient, he is unsettling because he is rarely only in one place. His form duplication allows multiple semi-autonomous Sinclairs to manage events, security, logistics, and discreet enforcement as extensions of a single will. Lawful Evil and loyal by calculation more than warmth, Sinclair embodies institutional omnipresence in waistcoat form. Around the Von Queefs, service is never simple, and the butler may already be in the room.

Sirocco

Nash

Nash, known as Sirocco, is an earth djinni paladin of the First Five, raised among desert caravans where survival demanded both discipline and adaptation. Drawn to Von Queef University after its reopening, he sought structure in a world still shifting beneath everyone’s feet. His Witchborn form duplication manifests as a semi-autonomous sand double, letting him divide duty, defend allies, and strike like a desert wind given purpose. Lawful Neutral and quietly resilient, Nash carries his oaths like weathered stone: firm, shaped by pressure, but not easily broken. Between law and flexibility, Sirocco walks the line where sand becomes a shield.
