Addison[edit]
“ | We are Addisons! All we do is advertise!!. | ” |
—Addison |
Physical Description[edit]
Addisons have only ever been known to wear one outfit, a black v-neck with green footed-pants. Their skin can come in a variety of colors; yellow, blue, pink, orange or white (bad things have been known to happen to white ones). They have three usual hairstyles; pigtails, mullets and widow's peaks.
History[edit]
The first few Addisons had a backstory with an Addison by the name of Spamton. Spamton used to be like them, just "a little unlucky." He was less successful than the other salesmen and would often "shoot his mouth" about making it big every night at the same cyber grill. When Spamton grew desperate and received a certain phone call, he suddenly became extremely popular and the Addisons began to abandon him, jealous of his success. After Spamton's career continued to prosper, it suddenly ended as if whatever was helping him disappeared. One NPC says they went to check on him the day he was to be evicted from Queen's Mansion, only to find that he had disappeared as well. They only found a phone hanging off the handle, emitting only "garbage noise."
Attitudes and Beliefs[edit]
Addisons usually travel in groups of four to five, a pink Addison, a blue Addison, a yellow Addison, an orange Addison and, occasionally a white Addison. They are all equals.
Addison Names[edit]
Addisons can have only one of two names; Addison or Spamton.

You whisper a discordant melody that only one creature of your choice within range can hear, wracking it with terrible pain. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 3d6 psychic damage and must immediately use its reaction, if available, to move as far as its speed allows away from you. The creature doesn’t move into obviously dangerous ground, such as a fire or a pit. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage and doesn’t have to move away. A deafened creature automatically succeeds on the save.
