OC VOICETEST FOR BRYN PENDRAGON
"claire don't you have enough OCs" nO

Bryn is a travelling warrior all jacked up on the power of a dragon and out on a revenge roadtrip against the prince who destroyed her home. Despite how edgy that description makes her sound, she's actually a cheerful, high-energy sheltered weirdo with maybe one braincell to speak of who is having SO MUCH FUN out here on her wild adventure. World info is here, cliffnotes/quick overview for meme purposes below:

BRYN IS:

• Around twentyish years old, s m o l and petite like a strong breeze would blow her over. Has super long lilac hair and a rose growing in place of her right eye.
  
• Dressed in a very pretty froufy combo of a dress and armour, all in shades of white and lilac. She wields a spear.
  
• Charged up with the magic of a dragon, despite not actually being a dragon herself. She may ping as some combo of "dragon", "half-dragon" or "undead" to characters sensitive to magic.
  
• Much much MUCH more physically strong and resilient than her appearance lets on
  
• Book smart, educated and well-spoken but shockingly street dumb
  
• Curious and inquisitive, quick to learn, but also a total airhead
  
• Friendly, kind, well-meaning (mostly)
  
• Occasionally kind of smug and condescending to humans, as a result of being raised by a dragon
  
• Kind of an enormous rage-fueled mess on the inside but she's (not) coping. It's fine


BRYN IS NOT:

• In apparent possession of any common sense or sense of self-preservation
  
• Genuinely cruel, actively malicious or mean-spirited to the average person
  
• Blessed with more than one single braincell
  
• Familiar with modern day culture or technology

Like my usual CMOs, I'm totally happy to roll with assumed CR, AUs, setting transplants, BASICALLY ANYTHING YA LITTLE HEART MAY DESIRE, I'M HERE TO GET ON WITH IT

[That... is very worrying, especially now that they're into things they could hurt themselves with.]

I'm not certain. It looks as though it's connected to the cabinet below, and to... these? Oh, they turn!

[Arianna sets one of the burners to medium, with no idea that that's what she's done.]

[draconite]

Surely they're not just for decoration, are they? No, they're some sort of switch. But what on earth for?

[ She gives the top of the stove a little tap – thankfully it's not actually hot yet, so we're saved the horror story that might've otherwise been. ]

It's smooth glass... and it has these little circles... could it be for– oh! Goodness, look at that!

[ And just on cue, one of the burners suddenly lights up red as it starts getting nice and toasty. ]

[daughterofthemark]

My! It seems we activated it.

[WHAT STRANGE MAGIC IS IT CASTING? Arianna moves her hand toward the burner as dramatic music probably plays... then stops.]

The air is warmer now. Perhaps there's a fire inside.

[draconite]

Ah, a fire summoning spell!

[ Bryn nods sagely, and stoops a little so she can open the oven and peek inside. Her brow creases with confusion when she doesn't see fire and she pops back up for a second to confirm that the stove is, indeed, still lit. ]

But there's no fire in here! And it's still so cold. Where could the heat be coming from?

[daughterofthemark]

[Arianna frowns in matching princess confusion. That oven sure is full of not fire.]

Might it be an exothermic reaction rather than true fire? [The italics are almost audible.] And the surface concealing a small basin? I'm uncertain how the components would enter, but if there's no fire...

[draconite]

Before I can agree or not, what's an... exothermic reaction?

[ andy i'm so sorry for making you make arianna explain science ]

[daughterofthemark]

[Arianna gets to feel smart, it's a good day.]

It's a form of alchemy. When certain substances are mixed, they give off heat. The theory is that both substances have fire as part of their makeup, and combining them causes part of that fire to be released.

[draconite]

Then that must be how it's done! Perhaps the components are fed in through a pipe, like the water pump?

[ She sounds so please with herself for working that out... ]

[daughterofthemark]

Ah! Yes, that must be it! A concealed pump somewhere, perhaps controlled by the knob earlier. What a clever device!

[Stoves, the height of invention.]

[draconite]

Imagine how clever someone must be, to come up with a thing like this!

[ And she's back to sounding delighted all over again. Inventions!! Are so cool!!!! ]

It must save so much time when it comes to cooking. How hot do you suppose it gets?

[ And without any further warning she juST REACHES FOR THE LIT STOVE??? BRYN NO ]

[daughterofthemark]

[CLAIRE NO

Arianna moves to intercept and gently takes Bryn's hand. It's so automatic, she's clearly either done this before or had it done to her. Probably the second one, considering.]

If we've ascertained its purpose correctly, then I would presume it reaches temperatures much like a cooking fire.

[draconite]

Is that all? That's not very impressive.

[ Apparently undeterred, she begins fiddling with the dial they've turned on the front of the oven. Thankfully for everyone involved, she has the presence of mind to not start jacking all of the hobs up to maximum. ]

You'd think they would be able to make it much hotter, if they went to all this trouble.
