Description: The Oddity is three people (Patti Roberts, Evan Crozier and John Sheak) fused into one body. Thus, the Oddity is a massive figure, weighing close to 500 lbs, while only standing 6' in height. The Oddity dresses in a floor-length, hooded black cloak, and wears a fencing mask to hide its constantly shifting features. Its body shifts as well, and the cloak is constantly rippling and bulging. The Oddity possess immense physical strength as well as great resistance to damage. Because of its multiple personalities, it is also very hard to contact and control telepathically. Also due to its multiple personalities, the Oddity's INT can range from 11 to 15 depending upon who's currently dominant. These changes will also affect which of the Oddity's Psychological Limitations are currently in use.

Campaign Use and Designer’s Notes: Technically, the best way to simulate the multiple personalities is to build Oddity as 3 character Multiform. However, since the only thing that really changes is the INT (and some possible skills), it seems to be more trouble than it’s worth. You could add “Accidental Change” if you wish, to represent when the minds switch, but I recall it being more of a constantly shifting state in Oddity’s mind. As you can see Oddity has 17 more points to spend, I recommend expanding on the skills list.
