Mollymauk Tealeaf is a tiefling blood hunter and member of the Mighty Nein. He is played by Taliesin Jaffe.
Appearance
Molly is a genderfluid lavender tiefling with red eyes. His curled horns are pierced and extremely ostentatious, with little gems and baubles, and his flamboyant appearance was often commented upon. He wears a bright and colorful robe covered with different religious symbols. Molly was introduced with two swords and a pouch that dangled from his hips. He also has many small straight, overlapping scars on his neck, upper chest, and arms, presumably from drawing his own blood to activate his swords. He had a forked tongue.
Tattoos
Molly first awoke with a red eye tattoo on the right side of his neck, on his right shoulder, two on his upper back, and on the back and palm of his right hand. He integrated and concealed these eyes within a serpent tattoo that curled all along the length of his right hand and up his arm, then winded into a floral piece on his shoulder, and then into a peacock with tail feathers that ran up the side of his face. Although he has tried to tattoo over the eyes, they would not take ink. It was confirmed by Yasha that Molly had nine 'eye tattoos' on his body.
Between his shoulder blades rising towards the hairline, he has tattoos of an eye within a pyramid, illuminated by another eye above it. A moon and sun tattoo flanks it and connects through it like a mantle.
Personality
Molly has been described as a "literal and figurative peacock". He frequently tells extravagant lies with little mind for whether or not his audience believes them. He is not visibly affected by insults, as shown by his lack of reaction when the old man in the Old Mud Hole called him a devil and told him to leave town.
Molly is very confident about his appearance and often mentions nudity, both his own and others'.
He finds everything delightful and is on board for any thrill or high. Though he doesn't seem to mind rough living, he is also interested in extravagant — borderline hedonistic— pursuits, including being hand-fed fruit, illegal recreational drug use, and getting full release massages from both male and female escorts.
Mollymauk has no attachment to whatever his life was before his own life began. He has no desire to remember the life of the person who ended up buried where he woke up, though he has expressed some regret at not experiencing a childhood.
Background
Mollymauk's body was originally inhabited by another person: Lucien. Lucien grew up in Shadycreek Run and later joined the Claret Orders, before spliting up and forming the Tombtakers, a small group of mercenary blood hunters. In 831 PD, Lucien acquired a tome that allowed him to gain powers and knowledge from the Somnovem, an ancient group of mages ruling a living city in the Astral Sea. Drawn in by the promise of power, Lucien attempted to complete a ritual to reach the Somnovem in 833 PD, but was double-crossed by the mage he hired to perform the ritual, Vess DeRogna, and his soul was broken and scattered. Believing him to be dead, his allies buried his body not far from their hideout and went their separate ways. Vess DeRogna took the tome as part of the arrangement Lucien had with her. A piece of Lucien's soul, which would eventually become Mollymauk, remained in his body.
Mollymauk woke up buried in the ground with no memories that same year, and regarded that awakening as the moment he came into existence. He shortly thereafter joined The Fletching and Moondrop Traveling Carnival of Curiosities, thus later claiming that he had been with them for as "long as [he] can reasonably remember". According to Toya (who had been the most recent member when he arrived), Molly didn't talk properly when he first joined the carnival, constantly repeating the word "empty". The performers became the tiefling's new family, and the fortune teller, Lestera, took him under her wing, encouraging him to participate in the carnival celebrations and inspiring him to commemorate the special events with tattoos. Little by little, the tiefling began to regain his speech, and his new friend decided to teach him how to read cards. He was good at it, although his fortune-telling "abilities" came from card-reading techniques and sleight of hand, not actual magic, and he never tried to develop an act about his readings for the show itself. It was then when Gustav Fletching, who had heard Molly's first word as the letters "M.T.", forged papers for him under the name "Mollymauk Tealeaf" in the hopes that these initials were either somehow significant to Molly or his original name. Although he didn't want to know anything about his past, he accepted his new name.
Molly stayed with the carnival, occasionally leaving to have small adventures by himself, like burning the house of a cruel landlord between Berleben and Felderwin after robbing him; whenever he went to those missions he would say he was at choir practice. He spent a lot of time with Lestera, mostly drinking, and he trusted her judgement; thus, when he discovered that he had abilities connected to hemocraft during a fight, it was Lestera who encouraged him to tell Gustav, who quickly incorporated said abilities into the carnival shows. He took "The Ice Spinner" as his stage name, likely due to his ability to summon ice with his blood.
It was at some point after Mollymauk's first performance with his swords, between 833 and 834 PD, that Lestera died, being found by the tiefling in their usual drinking spot. During the fortune teller's funeral, following her wishes, Gustav gave Molly part of Lestera's wardrobe and her deck of oracle cards. Thus, the blood hunter succeeded his dear friend as the carnival's fortune teller, and in keeping with her legacy, he created new cards for the deck. He also helped a new member of the carnival, Yasha Nydoorin, feel welcome, just as Lestera had done with him: he had found the fallen aasimar surrounded by fearful people in Eastern Wynandir, but he convinced them that despite her scary appearance Yasha was actually a redeemed and pious demon just like himself, so the townsfolk left them alone. The two of them became friends, and she saved his life at least once during one of his brief adventures as a vigilante.
At some point between 834 and the first half of 835 PD Molly heard about how the lawmaster of Nogvurot was scamming his people by making them believe he had connections with the royal family of a foreign empire (when in fact he was just taking their money). Wanting to scam the scammer, Mollymauk and the carnival traveled there, with the tiefling pretending to be the duke of Ashtania, a member of the non-existent royal family. He made the lawmaster believe that he and his friends were there to support him in exchange for half of his profits that month. Molly and his friends from the carnival stayed for three weeks, entertaining the people, and at the end of it they betrayed the lawmaster by telling the townsfolk that he had been scamming both them and the duke; the scammer was banished from Nogvurot, the people recovered part of the money that had been swindled from them, and the carnival members left the place with some profit.
Arc 1: Come Together
" Curious Beginnings " (2x01)
Mollymauk invited Caleb, Nott, Beau, Jester, and Fjord to go watch the evening circus performance in Trostenwald. During the show, an old man was transformed into a zombie and a fight between them ensued.
" A Show of Scrutiny " (2x02)
While staying at the inn, Molly was asked about the nature of Kylre. He replied by saying that an incident like this had never happened before.
" Disparate Pieces " (2x04)
After the fight with Kylre, Molly picked up Toya and walked slowly back to the boat, comforting her through this tough realization.
" Waste and Webs " (2x10)
Molly caught Nott sneaking into Molly and Fjord's room heading for Fjord's pack. He held up a piece of paper and asked if she was looking for it. Nott asked Molly to give her the piece of paper, but he refused unless they made a trade. Nott gave him a vial of acid and opened the piece of paper, finding it was blank. When Fjord came back in, Molly told him what had happened, and Fjord shooed her out of the room.
" Zemnian Nights " (2x11)
Fjord and Molly set a trap in their room for Nott, using Minor Illusion to create a pile of buttons topped with a jeweled flask. She saw the pile along with Fjord's belongings to one side and snuck in. Fjord and Molly slammed the door on her, trapping her, and Molly cast Devil's Tongue, charming her. She admitted that she was looking for Fjord's letter to the Soltryce Academy to give to Caleb.
" Fleeting Memories " (2x14)
Upon meeting Cree in the Evening Nip and being addressed as Lucien, Mollymauk panicked and insisted that the Mighty Nein play along. He tried to pass himself off as having the same personality as Lucien to Cree, possibly succeeding. Later, under a Zone of Truth, Molly revealed his amnesia and desire to live as a new person separate from whoever Lucien may have been.
Arc 2: The Bad Guys
" Found & Lost " (2x26)
When the Mighty Nein met Jumnda and Ombo, two members of the recently decimated Guiatao Clan, Molly entertained the firbolg boy, giving him one of his moon trinkets as a present.
While on watch with Beau, Molly revealed that the best lie he ever told was when, as part of a scam and initiation test for The Fletching and Moondrop Traveling Carnival of Curiosities, he spent three weeks pretending to be a reincarnated royal from overseas. Beau told Molly she once found out a politician and his wife were both cheating on each other then used that information to ruin their relationship and their lives. Molly was impressed and was sure the politician and his wife had it coming.
Having tracked and set an ambush on the Glory Run Road ahead of the Iron Shepherds and their slave wagon convoy, Keg and the remaining members of the Mighty Nein quickly faced losing odds as they attempted to do battle and recover their abducted members. Although the party had managed to down the half-orc druid Dwelma, they were outnumbered and outskilled. Gravely injured and facing off against Lorenzo with Beau, Molly attempted to use his Blood Maledict ability to hinder Lorenzo's attacks. However, he was already injured enough that this effort knocked him unconscious. Lorenzo planted his glaive into Mollymauk's chest. Mollymauk, knowing this was his end, spat blood into the face of Lorenzo. Noting his respect for Molly fighting until his end, Lorenzo twisted his glaive and left Molly to expire with his eyes open to the falling snow of the northern Marrow Valley. The in game date of Molly's death was 22 Fessuran 835.
" Converging Fury " (2x27)
After Beau looted Molly's body for his Periapt of Wound Closure, tarot deck, Summer's Dance, and his gold (intended to help pay for his eventual resurrection), the party buried Molly along the side of the road. Beau poured out a drink for Molly, and the party toasted: "Long may he reign."
" The Journey Home " (2x30)
When visiting the grave of Mollymauk, the group found that his coat was still there. Jester, Fjord and Yasha said their goodbyes. Jester left the Moon card at his grave in a memorial of him. Caduceus Clay used his cantrip, Decompose, to make sure that the earth remembered Molly. The cantrip triggers one minute of rapid decomposition by fungus and, potentially, flowers. (Requirements for resurrection remain unaffected.)
Arc 6: Weird Magic
" New Homes and Old Friends " (2x111)
The group returned to the gravesite alongside Glory Run Road intending to cast Speak with Dead to ask Molly, or Lucien, about the "eyes of nine", but found the grave empty. Jester then used his blood (obtained from the Gentleman) to cast Scry on him. She saw a familiar purple tiefling, bundled up against a blizzard, walking with confidence towards an unknown destination. His coat had been left behind, found twenty feet from the gravemarker and left to the elements until it was retrieved by Veth and taken into her possession.
" The Chase Begins " (2x112)
Jester used Speak with Plants to talk to Henry Crabgrass who revealed that Mollymauk's body had been exhumed and ritually resurrected about fifty days earlier (around 11 Thunsheer 836 PD), approximately six-and-a-half months after his death. Jester later Scryed on him a second time to find him staring into a fire, eating dried jerky and appearing pensive, huddled, and contemplative.
" The Tortoise and The Dare " (2x117)
The Mighty Nein finally caught up to the purple tiefling, and he revealed that he was Lucien, the original soul within Mollymauk's body. He revealed that he had none of Mollymauk's memories and regarded Molly as a temporary uninvited guest in his body. Lucien indicated to the Mighty Nein that Mollymauk means nothing to him, although he understood their grief.
Soon after Yasha gave Lucien a four-leaf clover that Mollymauk gave her for luck, while he was thinking about it, an echo of Molly's consciousness manifested in Lucien's mind, starting to speak with the Nonagon, annoying him and recrimating his behaviour.
" Ice and Fire " (2x121)
After Jester did a tarot card reading for Lucien, Molly's voice inside the Nonagon's head gained strength, criticising his ambition for reaching Cognouza and stating his intention of stopping him from hurting his friends and their world.
" Hell or High Water " (2x136)
The Mighty Nein caught up to Lucien and Cree when they were about to escape into the Astral Plane through the Immensus Gate in the Genesis Ward, where Caleb's words managed to make Lucien's hand twitch, and Molly's echo inside of him talked to the Nonagon again, but were unable to prevent them going through it.
" Rebirth " (2x139)
During their final battle against Lucien in the Astral Sea, the Mighty Nein began to talk to him as if he were still Molly, making allusions to Mollymauk's life and their relationship with him. This seemed to cause Lucien pain, prevented him from completing attacks against them, and made him lose Legendary Actions, each reference to Mollymauk's life altered him more and more, while he argued intensely with the echo in his head.
" Long May He Reign " (2x140)
The party continued to attempt to reach Molly as they took down Lucien. As he was dealt his final blow, Lucien grabbed his own chest and ripped it apart, accepting Molly's "reaching hand" as a way out.
After the battle, Caleb used his Transmuter's Stone to cast Raise Dead on Lucien's body, seeking to bring back Mollymauk. Yasha placed Molly's coat over the body and begged him to return, kissing his cheek. Jester took out his tarot cards and asked him to return to teach her about them. Beau then laid Molly's belt over the body and tried to push the blood back within. The tiefling's body was healed, but the ritual failed, and Molly's soul didn't return to his body.
As the group grieved, Caleb began to cast Vault of Amber on the body so that it could be brought back to the Material Plane. While he did so, Caduceus used Divine Intervention to ask the Wildmother to restore Molly's soul, and succeeded. Plants, vines, and moss began to grow and bloom around the body, encasing it. The tiefling's eyes opened, and he sprung up, confused, repeating only one word: "Empty". He began to look at the Nein with a hint of recognition, pointing to them in turn and naming the Tarot card he had created based on them, long ago. The tiefling let Jester and Yasha hug him, seeming to trust them even though he could not communicate much. The tiefling then joined the rest of the group as Caduceus cast Plane Shift, and they all headed to the Blooming Grove.
" Fond Farewells " (2x141)
In the Blooming Grove, the tiefling wandered around happily and curiously, the others wondering if he was still the same person. The next morning, Jester cast Greater Restoration on him, and he regained the ability to speak and think for himself. However, he felt that he was not Mollymauk, although he retained some of his skills and the Mighty Nein seemed familiar to him. He chose the name Kingsley Tealeaf, declaring that he would think of Mollymauk like his brother. Years later, Kingsley captained a ship he renamed Mollymauk, with which he joined the Revelry.
The Mighty Nein (animated)
On the day of the upcoming event at The Fletching and Moondrop Traveling Carnival of Curiosities, Mollymauk spent most of the day prepping his fellow circus associates, while reassuring his friend and boss, Gustav, that they will fill all seats at the main attraction: that being Toya and her Devil-Toad. One the night, during the event, the toad was roused by the sight of many lumino beetles that were accidentally released by Caleb, Nott, and Beau, wrecking havoc on the circus on both staff and audience. While Molly was trying to help the people, Gustav was turned into a monster by the toad, and attacked Molly. The tiefling was scratched by the former friend, causing all the eyes tattoo'd on his body to open, putting him in a sort of trance state, as he grabbed Gustav's swords, killing him with them. Upon awakening from the trance, he saw the body of his dead friend, turned bak to human, and screamed in anguish as he was shocked by what he had done. After the Devil Toad fled, taking Toya with him, the guards arrived to the massacre, arresting Molly and a few others for the crime.
As the other prisoners begin arguing amongst themselves, Molly speaks up and points out to them that because of their actions, he lost everyone he cared about, leading the group to decide to work together to break out and hunt down the creature both to clear their names and possibly save Toya. After they break out, they investigate the now ruined circus grounds for evidence of the monster, where Molly collects Gustav's blades. They find the creature's blood and Molly instinctively places it on his tongue, giving him focus to see the trail the creature set off towards. They go through the woods, into a cave to find Toya being possessed by the Devil-Toad. They defeat the toad, with Molly finishing it off, embedding his blades into its head, causing ice to sprout from it, but Toya did not survive. Molly finds a rift to another plane, explaining to Caleb his belief the creature was trying to use it to go to another reality. Molly says he does recall seeing a rift, but like most of his memories, he does not know much else beyond that, and the memory itself does not feel like his own. At Toya's funeral, Molly gives a speech to the group, that they're hearts are in the same place, that they should use the loss to remember to do better, that they should come together with a shared purpose. As the group takes the head back to town, Molly comforts Jester, using his cards as a way to imply to her that her god, the Traveler, is still watching out for her. They arrive to the town prison to find the guards dead, and a volstrucker waiting to ambush them.
Molly joined the fight against Owelia, until they subdued her and took her to an abandoned farmhouse. While Caleb and Beau took Owelia into the basement for interrogation, Molly and the others sought to care for Fjord, who was injured and poisoned in the fight. Following Nott's instructions, Molly and Jester went into the forest to look for materials to make an antidote. While searching, Molly spoke with jester of her devote following of the Traveler. He also admits to Jester that he had never used his unique blood powers before, nor was he interested in digging into the past, as his current company will provide him with plenty of adventure. The next day, when Caleb awoke after having killed Owelia, Molly was there with him, giving the depressed wizards words of encouragement, that a new day is a chance to be a new person.
Later, Molly and the rest of Mighty Nein arrive in Zadash, where he tells them they will meet an underworld contact, known as the Gentleman, who could replace Caleb's amulet so he could continue to hide from magical detection. When they reach the Evening Nip, he remembers the password, and they are let into the secret hideaway. It was here, Molly was greeted by a tabaxi named Cree who seemed to know him, calling him Lucien. Though Molly did not recognize her, he pretended to remember her, using the context she provided to try to cover his amnesia, before telling her he and his fellows wished to meet the Gentleman. The Gentleman sent them off on a mission to retrieve a magical compass, and while traveling, Molly worked to hold the peace between the members.
When they got back with the compass, the Gentleman offered them another job, to retrieve the Beacon from the Empire. While Molly was interested in it, the group ultimately chose to split and go their own ways to figure out their personal burdens. Despite Molly assuring the others he did not care about his missing past, he chose to secretly follow Cree to an abandoned structure. When he entered, he did not see Cree, so he triggered his blood powers, causing him to see a whole room smeared in past blood, a trap door with a strange symbol on it, and he could hear chanting within. He waited until Cree and other people left the hidden cellar, and went below. There, he saw a giant slab standing, and his blood drawn to the slab. Further cutting, more of his blood was drawn to it, illuminating a picture of someone, resembling himself, surrounded by eyes, holding a book. Seeing the image of himself on that slab horrified him, and he eventually joined back with the reformed Mighty Nein.
The Mighty Nein decided to accept the Gentleman's offer to retrieve the Kryn artifact, and Molly's job was the escape. He modified a cart for the purpose and used it to drop off each member to their destination, offering words of encouragement to Jester and later Nott, when they were feeling down about their roles in the plan. After dropping off the last member, he drove the cart past Assembly member, Vess DeRogna, who recognized Molly. As he waited for the team, Vess ambushed him, magically pinning him to the wall, greeting him also by the name, Lucien. She demanded to know why he would appear in Zadash, and claimed herself the title as the Nonagon after having initially killed him, showing him an identical tattoo on her hand as he has on his body. She began crushing him, but the eyes from his own tattoos opened, and caused an explosion, engulfing Vess in it, leaving no trace. As the Mighty Nein found Molly and decided to escape into the sewers, Jester went to check on Molly, and he harshly grabbed her, eyes glowing, before coming to his senses, and following them down. They encountered Kryn soldiers and attacked them, and despite being weary, they challenged the last soldier before he was quickly killed by Yasha.
Lestera
Lestera was one of Molly's first and closest friends. She taught him how to have fun, and shared her knowledge of card reading with him. Their relationship was hedonistic and carefree, and when she died, he kissed her goodbye and kept her legacy alive.
Yasha
Mollymauk and Yasha were close friends. The two of them travelled together with The Fletching and Moondrop Traveling Carnival of Curiosities and were close enough to give each other physical signs of affection, like a kiss on the forehead or a slap on the butt, and share their story with each other. Molly and Yasha had a lot in common when it came to their past, the two of them having missing memories, and were trying to distance themselves from who they were before. Mollymauk's death was especially hard on Yasha.
Jester Lavorre
Molly read Jester's fortune for two copper pieces, using a small set of cards. He predicted that there was something bright and adventurous in her future. That night at the Traveling Carnival of Curiosities, he showed her the moon and shadow cards together and asked if she understood what they meant, possibly in reference to the Moonweaver.
Jester and Molly got along well during his time with the Mighty Nein. When dramatizing her Hellish Rebuke in Infernal, Jester chose phrases to make Molly laugh; without Molly there, she generally just screams.
In " Bathhouses and Bastions " (2x90), Jester found research that led her to believe that Moonweaver-specific tarot decks were meant to be "deceptive" and "relative" to those who the deck was being read to, as are the tenets of the Moonweaver. This research allowed her to realize that Molly's tarot deck was not only self-created and incomplete but also did not correspond to more traditional tarot decks found within Exandria.
Caleb
When Caleb was dissociating after killing the gnoll priest with his Fire Bolt, Mollymauk called him from his withdrawn state. Mollymauk also confronted Caleb about what he viewed as him keeping loot and not sharing it with the other members of the group, pinning him against a wall and telling him it was fine to skim something off the top but to distribute 60 or 70 percent of it.
Caleb included a stained glass window in the library of his nine-sided tower that was reminiscent of Mollymauk's signature coat.
Fjord
Molly and Fjord had a friendly relationship, often being roommates at inns. Fjord wanted to learn about Molly's ritual with his swords and asked to join in. He hoped that Molly might have knowledge about magical swords that could be helpful to him as he searched for the meaning of his falchion. Before Molly's amnesia was revealed, Fjord realized Molly was lying about where his swords and his powers came from. For unknown reasons, he decided not to confront Molly or tell anyone else.
The two frequently collaborated in Zadash, particularly in causing a distraction at The Guided Hand Infirmary, and in trapping Nott when she attempted to go through Fjord's things in their shared room at the inn.
Before leaving the town of Berleben, Fjord confided in Molly about his concerns about the new eye in the center of his falchion. Molly attempted to charm him in response to get more information, but it failed.
After Molly's death, Fjord felt guilty that he wasn't there to save his life. He attuned to Molly's sword, the Summer's Dance, as a way of remembering him and keeping his legacy alive.
Beauregard
Molly was initially annoyed by Beau's abrasiveness. When describing her to fellow carnival members, Molly said, "She’s helping, she’s awful, you have a lot in common." Beau, in return, was put off by Molly's lying and teasing. He supported her efforts to change, and they went on to develop a close, sibling-like relationship.
Molly thought that his death enabling Beau's survival was worth it, and Taliesin joked that Molly would forever have a "one-up" on her.
Beau has taken Molly's lessons to heart and is trying to take baby steps towards leaving towns better than she finds them.
Beau asked Orly Skiffback to give her a magical tattoo of the All-Seeing Eye, like the one on the back of Molly's neck, using the design from the matching card in his tarot deck.

- “Be the chaos you want to see in the world.”
- "I don’t want to remember anything, I don’t want anybody else’s baggage in my head, I don’t want anybody else’s problems, thoughts, ideas… I like this person, right now, is a good person, is a fine person, is a happy person."
- "I spent two years before I met you all cajoling people, occasionally ripping them off, occasionally doing a good turn here or there. Never trust the truth. The truth is vicious, the truth thinks that you owe it something… None of that. I like my bullshit. It’s good, it’s happy, it makes other people happy."
- "Let me make this abundantly clear: My name is Molly. That person is dead, and not me. It's just a person who had this body. They abandoned it. It's mine now."
- "I am your god! Long may I reign!"
- "There's nothing better than waking up with no pants and flowers in your hair."
- "I'm always interested in people who are excited to experiment."
- Molly: (suggesting Keg hire the Mighty Nein) "Twenty gold."
Keg: "You just gave me twenty gold."
Molly: "Yes, that's how I know you can afford us." - "I don't care where anyone's from. It's nice. I certainly don't care where I'm from."
- Matt: "Molly, you have a brief moment. As the consciousness and life leaves you, what are your last words?"
Taliesin: (spits with blood.)
Matt: "As it slams into his face-"
Matt, as Lorenzo: "Respect,"
Matt: "-and then twists the blade. The life leaves Molly."
Taliesin: "Eyes never shut." - "Well fuck you too!" (Molly's parting thoughts)
