Dripwick

General Dripwick , The Ageless

Description: Dripwick the Ageless is a fearsome and enigmatic figure, serving as a high-ranking general under Lord Licorice and a prominent leader within the Order of the Twisted Vine. His form is an unsettling blend of celebration and corruption. From the waist down, his legs are made of decaying birthday cake, with vibrant frosting turned sickly and mold-ridden. The upper half of his body is composed of twisted, waxy paraffin candles that resemble grotesque birthday candles, each with a flickering, malevolent flame.

Appearance: Dripwick's face is a haunting visage with burning wicks for eyes, casting an eerie, fluctuating light. His arms, made of dripping wax, can harden into jagged, lethal edges or soften to ensnare his enemies. He exudes an aura of ancient, dark magic that chills the air around him and accelerates decay in anything he touches.

Personality: Dripwick is ruthless, cunning, and wholly devoted to the cause of Lord Licorice. He revels in the chaos and decay he spreads, finding perverse joy in the corruption of Caramelot. His loyalty to Lord Licorice is matched only by his ambition to extend the reach of the Twisted Vine. Raspy voice like a dark wind

Abilities:

• Wax Manipulation: Dripwick can control the wax of his upper body, shaping it into weapons or using it to bind and suffocate his foes.
• Infernal Flames: The flames on his candles burn with an unnatural fire that cannot be extinguished by normal means and can ignite almost anything.
• Decay Aura: His presence accelerates the decay of organic matter, spreading rot and corruption wherever he goes.
• Warlock Patron: Dripwick serves as a warlock patron to many, offering dark boons and infernal powers in exchange for unwavering loyalty and service. His followers gain the ability to manipulate wax, summon infernal flames, and spread decay, reflecting his own dark gifts.

Background: Once a minor celestial of festivity, Dripwick was twisted into his current form by Lord Licorice, who saw potential in his ability to blend celebration with corruption. Now, as the Ageless, he commands the forces of decay with brutal efficiency and unyielding devotion, making him a formidable and terrifying figure in the dark hierarchy of Caramelot.
