Meet a Banshee

A simplistic way to add a Banshee to anything in 36 words.

This is the second one of this series. I'll do my best to create many more "Meet a..." in the future.  With a dungeon synth track connected to it when I'm inspired ! 

In a few rolls, you will be able to tell: 

What kind of disturbance are due to the Banshee.
Rolled "Statue" and "Haunted": The royal castle is huge and its corridors are filled with statues and full armour on mannequins. This Banshee gives them life to attack by surprise anyone other than the royal family.

The mysterious place where she wanders.
rolled "Painting" and "Frozen": In this snowy mountain village, our Banshee was a renowned former portrait painter. A wretched assassin of the king tried his luck and alas, he met the painter returning from his shopping. The murderer risked no witnesses and pushed and drowned her in the icy moat.

What she were before this state. 
Rolled "Beauty" and "Magic": Our character comes from a large forest or live an elf community. She has the grace and the almost eternal young face of this people. She used a magic of colors to create her pigments. One of the main reasons for its renown.

The main encounter. A fight, an enigma, a maze, a riddle, an exorcism ?
Rolled "Sorrow" and "Hug": To find her, you have to reach for the ear at nightfall, and perceive her sobs in the immense castle. If someone falls on her and approaches her, she will first take a close appearance to that of her living to embrace the person. Gesture that will freeze and stop the heart of the latter. But it will free her soul. A sacrifice will be necessary...

What she is keeping away from everyone ? Or stole ? People locked up ?
Rolled "Wrath" and "Painting": We find paintings that appear on the walls of the castle after each death. These are the paintings of the dead she killed. They are sublime...

Then, what scars this creature left on you ?
Rolled "Memory" and "Doom": The frost burns she may have caused you or the sight of her paintings will accompany you forever. Feeling almost obliged to transmit the story of this woman in writing as well as telling it to a large number so that it will remain in memory. Thus granting her a form of immortality.
