1. What name/alias do you go by? Awe 2. What's your plurk username? awestriker 3. Character concept? Option A: The grandson/apprentice of a metalcrafter in Zibell. The old man quote "doesn't have the head for this orb stuff", so he is studying orbal mechanics himself to help support the demand for orbal appliances. The recent recession has him searching for ways to supplement his grandfather's income, and despite his lack of martial skill, his earned aptitude for orbal arts and engineering has him thinking he just might have a shot at contract work thanks to homemade orbal weapons. His mother has been conspicuously missing for some time, and his father was killed in an incident he doesn't know the truth about. He is slow to trust, and greatly prefers to mull an unfamiliar situation over before action on giving any opinions about it. Option B: The adopted son of one of Argon's beloved city councilmen (both of his birth parents assumed dead). While his father is well-regarded, the details of the City Council's work are unclear to him and he rarely hears about any actual problems in Argon itself, let alone Valeria as a whole, and he's begun to question whether and how he fits into Valerian politics even as his father talks about only his glory. Part of his father's reputation comes from his strong ties to the unions and Ministry of Industry, and several of his connections in Valrouis have children the son's age - these families' visits to each other are one of the few chances he has to connect with other people his age. Stuff I want to hide for now:
His birth mother vanished because she's a Grim and was needed elsewhere, and his birth father didn't actually die: he is a Zodiac officer and has adopted a new identity. This could go SEVERAL directions but the big two I can see are "neither of them knew about the other one's other life" and "they did both know and mutually agreed not to wrap their son up in All That Mess from either side." I personally think the latter would make for more interesting character motivations.
4. Anything you want to see in game? I can see this guy not getting along with Schelfaren engineering students or conventional engineers in general and I want that in my life. Mystery devices to take cracks at. 5. What kind of group would you prefer for the main cast? My first thought is a semi-independent government taskforce designed to bring diverse backgrounds together (like, Class VII but directly state-sponsored and not academic); I also like Bracers. 6. Link your favorite AMV!Neon Genesis Evangelion / The Great Curve (Talking Heads) (flashing lights warning throughout) (noise warning at the end)
