[quote=@Savo] Here's what I got for right now; I haven't put down an Arcana and completed his persona's abilities since I'm unsure about where he would fit throughout this all and would like to get some input as to where he might belong before making it definitive. [hider=Alexander Satou][center][h3][u][b]Profile[/b][/u][/h3][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/584093021222469648/584145515621384203/Alexander_Furst.jpg[/img][/center] [color=red][b]Name::[/b][/color] [list]Alexander Satou[/list] [color=red][b]Age::[/b][/color] [list]17 / Second Year[/list] [color=red][b]Arcana::[/b][/color] [list]Pending (Want to discuss and figure out if Alex fits Emperor or Hanged Man more)[/list] [color=red][b]Personality Traits::[/b][/color] [list]As far as they come, Alexander doesn't come off as the sociable type - and no, he isn't shy in the slightest. If anything, this Japanese-German boy is innately calm and stoic, coming off as somewhat standoffish to a fault. What further exemplifies these personality traits is how much of a stick in the mud he comes off as, usually condemning those he deems as lazy, indolent slackers as a bunch of incompetent people with no drive, sometimes even attempting to push them to act. This overly serious, often pissed off temperament has resulted in him not being a popular guy to hang around, and further more, being referred to as a workaholic, a stunning mirror image of his mother in that aspect. There is a certain irony to being referred to her in this way, as he seeks to define himself through hard work, not because he was pushed or born with some form of talent, but because it was his own choice. Because of this, he also considers his favorite types of people to interact with to be "defiant" or at least those he sees as willing to push back against either his own provocations or others. Alexander is also extremely frustrated when people interact with him in a particular way, namely when they try to flatter and suck up to the boy. He doesn't find it to be gratifying in the slightest; basically, it would be akin to lighting a stick of dynamite with an extremely short fuse. Aside from that, he is also unusually blunt when it comes to his talks, mostly unafraid to speak his own mind on the topic at hand. This, coupled with his prior traits, isn't exactly giving him any points when it comes to making friends. Outside this callous behavior, there is a good side in him. Somewhere. The way he tries to come off as friendly can either come off as forced due to trying to imitate other people and how they act friendly or can be a backhanded complement due to the delivery of the comment. Looking past that, however, he does have an affinity for attempting to encourage other people, namely when they pursue a subject out of their own volition. He'll try to properly put such a comment into words, but it can be difficult to pull off for him without coming off as rude or flat out condescending.[/list][hr] [center][h3][u][b]Background[/b][/u][/h3][/center] [color=red][b]Biography::[/b][/color] [list]Alexander was born to the strangest combination of parents - an older German who was a stern prosecutor and a rising star of a fashionista father. It would be expected that his father lived in Tokyo, but nope, he lived in Kenkōichi, his hometown surprisingly enough; it was also where the two met at the time. Despite opposites attracting being an existing statement, it was difficult at times to interact with one another while raising their son, their relationship seemingly working for a while, until they divorced on Alex's thirteenth birthday. This was one of many issues Alexander had to deal with for a time, but unlike most of his other problems that cropped up over the years as he was growing up, he managed to understand and get over this one much easier. The other problems he faced, not so much. To start out, the fame of his father and making genuine friendships. He learned very quickly what these kinds of people were and closed himself off, pushing away peers that could of been true friends, believing them to be all the same. He thought they only saw value in him because he was the great Satou's son and could possibly help them get a sneak peak at what his father was creating next, or maybe even have specialty designed clothes for them. While his harshness has soften somewhat over the years, his resolve remains completely unbroken. It also didn't help that there were expectations placed on him by these adoring fans. They expected Alex to be similar to his father when he grew up. Alexander's mother thought they were idiots, but ironically she wasn't any better than them, as she pushed Alex to follow the same career path as her. Funny enough, he wasn't exactly interested in either of these routes, instead expressing interest in medicine at a very young age, even before his heart hardened. While his father was supportive of the route he was going, she had her concerns about her son going into the medical field, starting out with thinking he just liked playing doctor as a child before hitting the realization that he was legitimately considering a foray into the field as a serious profession. Due to her ex-husband's encouragement, she feared that Alex was just following a trend, despite the field being lucrative. She also had plenty of other fears as well, such as Alexander possibly perishing as a result of some disease. At first, it was small prodding and talking with Alexander, but as he grew older, he began to butt heads with her, inheriting her natural stubbornness as his father would say. Speaking of which, despite living with his mom, as a result of this, he isn't exactly on the best of terms with her. Much to his father's chagrin, she's still trying to push him into pursuing a career in law and has been attempting to make plans for their son's future. Beyond that, he obviously doesn't have many friends and isn't exactly the most popular guy around, being infamous for his lack of tact and being insufferable to interact with, especially when he chose to interact with them himself. When it came to Alexander's end of the spectrum, he was more agitated about people attributed his success to either his dads fame or how much of a hard-worker his mom was. Beyond these issues, he has continued to remain vigilant in deferring to his own path, even with the onset of the mysterious Yellow Plague and his mother's nature. After all, Alexander wasn't one to back down.[/list] [center][h3][u][b]Persona[/b][/u][/h3][img]https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/6/6a/Alexander_concept.png/revision/latest?cb=20101101061934[/img][/center] [color=red][b]Name::[/b][/color] [list][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_the_Great]Alexander[/url][/list] [color=red][b]Persona Abilities::[/b][/color] [list]TBA[/list] [color=red][b]Gear::[/b][/color] [list]While Alexander is an Academic Athlete, he's also Athletic in general, participating activities such as Basketball and Kendo. Despite this, if he did have to fight with something, he would probably prefer it to be a Baton, but if he had to, he would utilize a Shinai. Yes, he does possess a Baton, used to be his mothers; heck, that was probably the thing that got him into Kendo in the first place. Other items on his person include a wallet, cellphone, a water bottle or two, and sometimes his notebook. There's also the usual school supplies whenever he has a backpack on him.[/list][/hider] [/quote] Oh hey, looks like we're getting the old band back together. I'm also reworking a CS from that Crimmy RP all those years ago
