Appearance
After becoming devoted to Mercury he started donning finer clothing and fine gold jewelry. He also now bears a pair of golden wings.
Personality
He has devoted himself to Mercury after hitting rock bottom and being shown that any person’s position can be improved through trade and exchange.
When he needs to communicate with Mercury he’ll rub a pair of golden coins together. Sometimes answers strike him when this sound bounces around his mind for a bit, other times The Argentine Huckster (Huck) will appear for more direct discussion.
Gus has made him promise to take care of The Rat Pack should he die. How seriously Pete takes this is debatable, but Gus believes him to be.
Both Paul and Rhys are constantly asking him about Mercury. Paul wants to find out more about the world outside Locations/Moonfall City and how one can get out of the city, while Rhys is curious so he can collect Moon Dust from clients who either pass away or decide to stop taking the Dust he sells.
His magic comes from a Pact with Mercury, in which he must pay for each spell and effect he wishes like any other transaction one might make.
Goals/Objectives
Known Abilities
- Golden wings sprout from his back.
- Enhanced blows from his Pact.
- Can rally and augment his allies through a combination of magic, words, and deeds.
History
He’s connected to the communities of crime and the underworld through his illegal Moon Dust dealing and swindling with counterfeit goods such as snake oils and cure-alls.
He is a Human and Locations/Moonfall City native who was orphaned and came up from nothing. He stays in the city because it’s the kind of place where one can chase their dreams and make it big!
He works as the procurement specialist for the Celestial Sips, working with his various connections to get them what they need through legal and illegal avenues alike. He also has a slightly shadier side business selling Moon Dust and snake oil.
He takes refuge at The Exchange, the main temple to Mercury, when he’s not out and about on dealings and business.
