When confronted by intruding PCs, Chara is likely surprised and defensive. However, she is not inherently evil. Chara is actually just jealous and unhappy, believing she'll feel better if she brings down everyone around her by cursing them. Deep down, Chara wishes she was still a beautiful dancer and feels guilty for cursing other dancers so she could be the best. Sadly, she believes the damage is done, her redemption is too late, and she has no choice but to play the part of a dastardly, mischievous witch.

  • If the PCs try to fight Chara or steal the wand, she tries to curse them for ruining her fun.
  • If the PCs appeal to Chara's vanity, convincing her that she is, in fact, beautiful, Chara softens and acquiesces to their desires. She may even develop a new crush!
  • If the PCs appeal to Chara's desire to be a dancer, reminding her of her old life and her love of dancing, Chara lightens up and regrets her actions, handing over the wand and agreeing to stop cursing folks.
  • If the PCs somehow convince Chara that it's never too late to turn your life around and make good decisions, Chara reluctantly makes things right and uses the wand to decursify the folks she's cursed.
