Beepo is a small construct that Luma made on the night of the Vigil of Remembrance, 1714 PSF, in her apartment in Argentum.1 Luma does not know what he is.1
Description
Appearance
Beepo is built around a bottle of glowing neon green-blue ink. The ink sloshes about inside when he moves, but none pours out of the top.1 A ruby is jammed in his head, though it is not clear whether he sees through it.2 He was not built very well.2
Personality
Beepo makes no sound but the slosh of his ink and the clink of his parts. If he opens his mouth, ink pours out.2 He always seems to be staring at Temerity, which unsettles her.2 He copies her every move.3
Biography
Session 14
Luma bought an uncut ruby from a gnome jeweler near her apartment that night.1 Back home, a little drunk and with her great-grandfather’s letter set aside, she laid out the ruby, bottles of phase spider and cloaker fluids, and the broken shards of a spent Tarnar Turnstone, and spent several hours drawing the components together.1 When she finished, they dissolved into the page and became Beepo, to her panic.1
The next evening Luma introduced him to the rest of the party at her apartment. He waved, and fired a laser beam at a makeshift dartboard on her wall.1 Hazel called him beautiful.1 Temerity stared, and later held up a hand to block him from view.1
Session 15
Luma and Hazel spent the night of 1 Nightdeep, 1714 PSF, teaching Beepo to dance.2 His eye alone had cost ten dragons, Luma said.2
Session 17
On the morning of 7 Nightdeep, 1714 PSF, Beepo and Luma sat in Rhysaene's apartment in matching pajamas, each with a tub of ice cream. Luma left whiskey out of his, since she was not sure how old he was.4 There are no constructs in the Silver Vale, and bringing Beepo out in a crowd would cause trouble.4
Session 18
On 8 Nightdeep, 1714 PSF, Beepo shadowed Temerity at Rhysaene's apartment and copied her every move, and when she offered him a fist bump he headbutted it.3 Through the bond he shares with Luma he kept her informed while she was at the Canal Markets, and wrote Temerity a note asking whether she and Hazel wanted anything from the store.3
Session 19
On 9 Nightdeep, 1714 PSF, Beepo helped Luma with a project related to ink, and was surprisingly helpful, if only for being full of magic ink.5 Not knowing what he ate, Temerity brought him both a honey bun and a skewer for breakfast, and he walked about holding them like a shield and sword.5 Riding in the Hat of Witchery with Hazel, he poked her until it became a game, and came out wearing a championship wrestling belt he had made out of ink.5
Abilities
Beepo is a homunculus servant.1 He can fire a laser beam.1 He can also fly: the ink bubbles out of his bottle and becomes a little hot air balloon.1 Beepo and Luma can talk to each other in their heads. Luma says it is like thinking, but in a different voice.3 He can write.3 He can make things out of his ink.5
