Personal Skills

Skill 01

Koldovsto A

A specific brand of sorcery, usually connected to unhuman beings. Baba Yaga's magic can be considered an extension of herself. By using her own bodily components she is able to perform an astonishing array of different types of spells, converting parts of herself into phenomenons. These aplications are incredibly efficient.
This includes familiar making when applied to small animals, serving as surveilance or broadcast devices.

An interesting detail of this genre of thaumaturgy is that it's spells are so primal, they lack even propper names. They are usually refered to only by their effects

Skill 02	Sustained Masochism B
	Baba Yaga uses her own body as a catalyst for her magic, as such she regularly rips out parts of herself. Because of this it is virtually impossible for her to be permanently damaged by self-harm, being able to rebuild removed body parts at one 1000th of the normal prana-cost. Additionally, her blood is a healing accelerator and can be used on others for this purpose.

Skill 03	Shapeshift C
	Baba Yaga is capable of changing both her facial and body features, as well as her clothing, but only in the range of female looks. Additionally, certain more grotesque features can also be sustained, for short periods of time.

Class Skills

Skill 01	Item Construction A
	Baba Yaga likes her privacy, and in order to deter trespassers in her secluded home she devised an arsenal of the most varied types of traps and hindering spells, amounting to an impressive bulk of deadly obstacles.

Skill 02	Territory Creation C
	Baba Yaga can summon the area within the palicade of bones of her legend. Besides giving her and her Noble Phantasm a slight AGI and MAN boost she can summon instantly several of her traps already placed, bypassing the need of previous setting. However, she is not aware of what specific traps will appear, nor it's quantity or arrangement.

Noble Phantasm

	Kuritsa Dom
	Rank: A
	Type: Fortress
Baba Yaga's trademark hut on chicken legs. It is a sentient entity capable of autonomous movement, being able to walk normally and on walls, jump and swim. In combat, it can fight along side Baba, springing giant talons on the enemies. Although resilient in and of itself, it's erratic movements and odd shape are what makes it a tough opponent to take down. Inside it, Orgon Gorshok, her magical oven, is capable of shooting flame projectiles outwards from the front door, synergizing with the Gunk and other laid traps on the field. However, for this, the door needs to be open, which is a liability. Inside Kuritsa Dom, the size of all within it is under Baba Yaga's command. She can increase herself or decrease her opponents up to a 100x rule, being virtually incapable of running out of room. When inside the Noble Phantasm, balance is not affected by outside sources (unless extreme damage takes place). Kuritsa Dom itself is capable of shrinking to the size a small basketball and growing to the size of a 3 story-tall house. However, neither size is practical for combat, usually staying in the middle ground proportion. As a final measure, if the wooden hull is breached, Kuritsa Dom will expel flooding amounts of Gunk. It can then be used either as a distraction for Yaga and the house to escape or , if truly pushed that far, serve as a kamikaze tank, destroying itself and contents along with it.

Common Spells:

Gunk:
Baba Yaga is capable of expelling a tar-like substance from every pore on her body and can enchant recipients to do as well. It's flammable and addhesive nature are the main threats, but it can be liquifed to help spread around the area, at the cost of some sitckiness.

Bear-Traps:
Baba Yaga can create bear-trap like jaws in any surface she desires upon touch. They are hidden and remain inert until caster sets them to trigger, reacting to proximity or contact. These jaws are not capable of consuming but come with a mouth-like cavity within them, being able to store objects. These traps can be set on Baba's body as well.

Animating breath: Anything touched by her breath receives a form autonomous motion. This essentially allows her to impart very limited sentience onto objects, and manipulate them according to her orders.

A Witch by any Other Name

Baba Yaga is the archetype of most witches in fairy tales, the secluded elderly lady that will enslave and devour anyone foolish enough to enter her domain.
Even as a child she obssessed with the workings of organic beings. Initially endearing to the huntsmen of her village, it soon became the cause of her banishment when she started using human parts in her experiments. When deprived of materials, she gathered them from the closest source:
Herself.

Vassili and the Chicken Hut

Now isolated from the rest of the world, Baba Yaga managed to create a special house for herself, a reflection of it's owners personality and capabilities. Now settled, she devoted herself to her magic and became the being mothers mention to make her children behave. Regardless, some chidlren still manage to fall in her grasp. The single one to ever survive, was a pale skinned and hazel eyed boy names Vassili.

In one particular night of distraction for Baba Yaga, she fell asleep and left the door open when Vassili was not chained to the floor, giving him the opportunity to escape - he wouldn’t be able to cross the gate beyond the palisade but in desperation one could try. She woke up startled when she realized her mistake but was surprised by a hardworking boy finishing his cleaning of her oven. When asked as to why he didn’t try to escape he said in clear voice, rid of shivering: “Well… I had work to do didn’t I?”.

A Boogieman's Requiem

Regardless of how cruel some of Casters actions may be, she still has some values she takes in high consideration, such as Loyalty, although you could think of her definition more as “the opposite of betrayal”. She finds selfishness to be one of the things that are intrinsically wrong with mankind and will actively punish those who exhibit traits of such an evil around her.

She does not, however, place any value in human life. Where she to find a young woman being murdered in a dark alley in front of her very eyes, she would take no action in saving her, rather preferring to punish her offender immediately after the deed was done.

Only people she deems righteous can earn her respect, and she does have admiration over those pure of heart. This strikes great contrast with her nature that does not see anything wrong with murdering or torturing, and the esteem she has for morality in no way affects her behavior, nor does she have any intention of changing her ways.

She knows exactly what she is and her role in this world.

To put it simply, she is a boogieman that cherishes light.
