a character in “The Multiverse”, as played by Dan-Nal-Khali

Description

Height: 200cm
Weight: 9 st 4 oz
Race: Human (modified)
Skin colour: White (often greyed)
Hair colour: Blood Red
Hair style: Plaited, knee-length
Clothing: Dresses formally and often like a performer, rarely seen without a top hat and fitted coat with card motif.

Personality

Theatrical, a performer by both nature and profession.
Suffers from misophobia, the severity of which varies depending on his emotional and physical wellbeing.
Well spoken, almost never using bad language.
Suffers from recurring amnesia, only being able to store memories in his deck of cards.
Can be classed as a coward, as he will run from conflict, only fighting if his own life would be in jeopardy otherwise.
The combination of his phobia, memory loss and unwillingness to be hurt make it difficult to connect with people beyond what is necessary in his profession as a travelling entertainer.

Equipment

A deck of playing cards is on his person at all times. The deck stores his memories, each card having a specific set of memories linked to it. Sedra is unable to tell which card holds which of his memories.
The deck can be used for attack purposes; by destroying a card the potential energy stored within can be released in a different from. The aces correspond to Sedra's sense of time, location, self, and self preservation. The royal cards each manifest as a replica of a member of Sedra's 'family'.
In destroying a card the memories within are lost, and to replace a card that has been used a whole new deck must be created. Only one deck can be used at a time, so if a deck is depleted it must be destroyed in its entirety in order to create a new deck.
Helthas Vrass, the Jack of Clubs, frequently speaks to Sedra within his mind. The Jack is mocking, aggressive, and has a deep hatred for Sedra. Sedra also possesses a walking stick that can be converted into an umbrella.
