[Molly's sitting at a table, covered with purple-red cloth, with a stack of cards in front of him and his swords resting against the edge of the table. Writing is complicated, and this 'recording' thing is so handy.
Anyway-
He claps his hands and gives a little theatrical bow, long hair falling on his shoulders, and little trinkets on his horns giving a little jingle-]
Mollymauk Tealeaf, at your service. It couldn't pass me by that the atmosphere, aside from the gatherings to eat and be merry, is a bit down. So I'm here to cheer you up!
It's simple- a story for a story!
You give me the most interesting or outrageous fact about yourself, and in return, get a free reading of your luck for tomorrow!
Sounds like a fair trade to me, hmm?
I prefer doing this in person, but this will have to do- I learned it can reach a lot of people a lot faster~

So are you a wizard?

I did know a wizard back home. Quite a capable man.

[ He's really not trying to be an asshole on purpose, it's just his nature. ]
I guess you have magic and stuff where you come from. We just have horror and death. And monsters, like me. Or...not like me, too.

I am a tiefling- race not really known how came to be aside from the usual "devil spawn!" It's not always like that. Complicated shit, really.
I do have a little bit of magic that I've been born with. And we also have horror and death, somehow it always finds us when we don't even look for it. But I suspect it's a bit different for you.

[ He's heard something like that about his own people, though they don't stand out physically the way that Molly does. ]
I think a lot of places have horror and death. I wish there weren't so much suffering in other worlds.
[ Despite his flat tone of voice, he does mean it. He's a monster and knows that, but he doesn't just point blank wish people to all be miserable and live in fear. ]
I've never met anyone from a world like mine. My world was hell. We grew up afraid of being eaten by monsters, and then there was…war. That's all I've known for most of my life.
They say we're here to save this place from something, right? I don't know if I care about that, but even here seems a lot more peaceful than where I came from.
[ He's aware this is a HUGE DOWNER. ]
Did you say you're telling the future somehow?
[ He misunderstands what "reading of your luck tomorrow" means. ]
That sounds like magic.
