>Seven of Swords (A desperate attempt to resolve a matter without conflict. The use of cleverness or outright deception to turn the tide in your favor.)
>Age: 40
>Location: Free Choice
Thraben sounds like a nice place.
>Identity: Church of Avacyn, Angel (-300)
>Drawbacks: Siblings Game (+300), Howlpack Hunt (+300), Court of the Three-Day King (+200)
>A Good Guest (1400)
This fits nicely with those 'know the letter and spirit of the local law' type perks, but in a different way. Filling in local traditions as needed.
>Avacyn Will Protect You (Free, Avacyn)
Good and evil are relative, but being a dick can not be allowed!
>Benevolent Protection (Free, Avacyn)
I am a giant skeleton with angel wings! Fear not, I am a friend to all children! Seriously, all I'm missing to go full-on crazy mode is a luchador mask.
>Warding (1300, Avacyn)
Does this count as making my own symbol a holy symbol in the future? ...Well, still worth it.
>Gather To Me (1200, Avacyn)
Give me your tired, your poor, your huddles masses...
>Archmage (1000, Avacyn)
Pretty sure this makes me at least a 6/6 white creature with flying now.
>Blessing (800, Avacyn)
A sliver of my power... is this letting me empower priests? Am I going full-on deity with this now?!
>Rest In Peace (500, Avacyn)
And now I can sanctify graves in such a way that they cannot be desecrated. Very nice.
>Take Shelter Beneath My Wings (200, Avacyn)
And now I can hear the peoples' prayers! I've made a terrible mistake. I'm going to have to run around wearing a mortal visage just so I don't get a big head. Dammit.
>Vault of the Archangel (0, Avacyn)
I... I give up. I've gone from the monster that hunts monsters to being a light-aligned minor deity. This is like Pelor the Burning Hate, turned upon itself.

So... honestly? The Sibling Game is what I think I'd have the most problems with. Those kids can raise an army of zombies, given enough time, and that's a concern I'll need to nip in the bud as quickly as possible. Wolves? Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm well-equipped to deal with them, though I'll need to see whether I can find a way to cure them rather than putting them down. Though I think a lot of it is going to be me hovering overhead and laughing at them.

The court of the three-day king? Mm, well. That's going to be amusing. I expect that they will be slightly unsettled and annoyed, as my mortal visage will show little fear, but I'm sure others have bought into it before so it won't be entirely out of the ordinary. I shall be a benevolent ruler! It will be a party for them to enjoy. The wine shall flow freely, even if it seems a bit thick. We shall have the finest sweetmeats and desserts. And as things draw to a close, I shall stand up and make a speech.

"Gentlemen! Ladies! I daren't take too much of your time this late in the evening, but our third day is drawing to a close and I feel I must share a few words with you all before I enjoy my last meal tonight. It has been an honor to wear this crown. I feel as though I do not deserve it, but you have been so insistent, I could hardly refuse! This feast has been one for the ages, and I am flattered, as surprised as I might have been to be secreted here to take part in your festival. Of course, of course, I don't mean to wax poetic, but it's simply overwhelming. Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you for such a rich meal, and I promise you that I shall not let one bit of it go to waste."

At which point I drop my human visage, standing tall enough for my head to nearly brush the ceiling of the splendored hall, and give a wide, sharp-toothed skeletal smile to the collected vampires as I raise my gauntlet, prepared to eradicate them in one fell blow.

Creatures ain't got shit on MY instants.
