Name: Prophet

Alignment:

Summary:

You are a mystical predictor who can feel the minds around you.

Background:

The Prophet went to his house that night as the light of Salem dimmed. There had been all kinds of murders in the town: from the Mafia, Coven, Arsonist, and more. He knew what he must do. He prepared his house for the ritual. After it was all ready, he prayed for the whole night, hoping for some clue as to who the wretched Mafia had hired and who the wicked Coven had performing spells. He felt it! It was in reach! So close!

“Ah! Who is it? Who? Who is with us?!” the Prophet screamed in an unworldly voice as it all faded away.

The Prophet had never been great at magic. When he was a boy, he wanted to be a Medium, but he could only start to hear the dead when the moon was at its fullest. He looked to the Psychic, but he could never figure the names of who was evil and who was good. He didn’t bother talking to the Retributionist because he knew he could never learn the art of revival. All was lost. One last idea came to his mind; one that he would never even imagine of doing before. He heard of an Escort being forced into working for the Mafia and a Retributionist turning to the Coven and was now happily using the dead as she pleased. Why couldn’t he do the same? He was going to attempt to talk to the Mafia but realized they despised magic. There was one last hope… Maybe the Coven would accept him. He went to see the Coven, hoping for something after being rejected by all.

“I have come to join your Coven! All the town have rejected me! Please! Take me in!” pleaded the Prophet.

The Coven Leader then inquired, “Why? How would you help at all?”

“Uh-um… Well, I can feel the jobs of others around us!” the Prophet stumbled.

“Pathetic! You fool! You think you deserve to be here? Only true users of dark magic deserve to be here! Ha-ha-ha! You will die where you stand!” the Coven Leader responded.

“No! Please! If you won’t accept me, just let me go! Please!” the Prophet yelled as he started sobbing. “The Medium, the Psychic! They rejected me! I have nowhere to go! I hate them, just like you!”

“Medusa! Rid of the fool!” commanded the Coven Leader.

“Yesssss…” she replied as she slowly slithered over to the boy. “Sssooo boy…How doesss it feel for your life to be in my handssss.”

The boy just kept sobbing.

As Medusa started to give him the last face he’d ever see, the Necromancer cried, “Wait!” All the Coven looked at her. “Don’t kill him! He was rejected just like me! Just let him go! He won’t do us any harm!”

“Ugh! Fine!” muttered the Coven Leader in disgust.

--

With all his power he yelled, “The Medium, the Psychic, and the Coven! They turned their backs on me! Don’t you turn your back on me now! I have served you well! Ah. Yes. A psychopath. Knives. Stab stab stab. Blood. I see it. I – see it. The Serial Killer is among us.”

That next day, the Prophet told the town, “There is a Serial Killer! The Doctor must be fake! He fakes his use of knives as a Doctor but actually murders people!”

The Doctor was hung. The light of the full moon had brought the Serial Killer back to him. The Coven Leader laughed hard that night. The death of Medusa who valiantly killed the Serial Killer before she died had not been in vain. The Serial Killer had been stoned and was unrecognizable, and it had gotten the Doctor killed!
