OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Rape (on-screen, I can deal with it in backstory), cancer, dementia/loss of cognitive faculties

IN CHARACTER

PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Yes, please! Karlach wants all the hugs.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Yes, please! Karlach also wants all the fights.
RELATIONSHIPS: Yes.
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: Karlach is infected by an illithid tadpole, which gives her some limited ability to read and influence people's thoughts, and fight off psionic intrusion. She also shares a psychic connection with other infected, allowing limited communication and memory-sharing.
MAGICAL INFORMATION: Plane-touched, resistant to fire, powered by an infernal device that enhances her strength and durability, and can produce enough heat to make it dangerous to touch her. She can call upon her infernal heritage to brand or blind an enemy.
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Literally heartless. There's an infernal engine where her heart should be.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: No conversational triggers. Her backstory includes slavery, war, nonconsensual (magical) medical experimentation, and thematic equivalents to terminal illness.

OUT OF CHARACTER

BACKTAGGING: Yes!
THREADHOPPING: If it's a public network thread in a game, go for it. Otherwise, please ask first.
FOURTHWALLING: If your character's the type to note that Karlach's life sounds a lot like a D&D game, go for it. Please no fourthwalling for the Baldur's Gate series in specific.
NOT INTERESTED IN: Anything in the player triggers section.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

VISUAL: Tall, muscular tiefling woman with red skin, fiery eyes and black horns, one of which is broken near the base. Extensively scarred along her right shoulder and arm. The centre of her chest pulses with a rhythmic glow, and small ventilation ports along her shoulders and chest flicker with tiny flames.
AURAL: Low voice, tends toward the loud and boisterous. Have a listen.
OLFACTORY: Oil and heated metal, sweat and blood if she's been in a recent fight.
DEMEANOUR: Typically friendly, enthusiastic, helpful, and always up for a good fight.
