Character: Lucciola
Series: Last Exile
Character Age: 17
There are two warring nations on the world of Prester: Anatoray and Disith. The Guild is a faction of aristocracy that rules Prester from high in the skies, pulling the strings of the battling countries below. Maestro Delphine Eraclea rules the Guild but is the very opposite of a benevolent leader. She cares nothing for the people down below and takes joy in watching them fight as she controls the world with ruthless greed.To take a stand against her, peaceful couriers Claus Valca and Lavie Head must deliver a young girl to the people who need her. This one girl holds the ability to crush the power that Maestro Delphine holds, and by defeating her they can set the people of the world free to fly as they wish.
As a young child and member of the Guild’s servant class, Lucciola was gifted by Maestro Delphine to her younger brother, Dio. In a world where people are the cruel Maestro’s playthings and leagues exist between nobility and the the rest of the population, Lucciola was forced to become a perfectly obedient and guarded servant in order to survive and protect his Lord. However, the relationship between them is anything but that. In Dio’s words, they are friends and this friendship defines most of who Lucciola is. What stops him from showing this is his fear of Delphine and the consequences such a close relationship would bring. Because of this, his training and survival tactics have become so ingrained that he finds it difficult to show any emotion towards others, making his interactions with people stiff and formal. This doesn’t stop him from always standing at attention, making sure that he’s ready to protect his master from any danger possible with his skills in martial arts and weaponry.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
My name is Lucciola and I am Lord Dio's body guard and servant. My main duty is to provide him with companionship and protect him from any dangers that might befall him. I was given to him as a child and he is the one who gave me the name Lucciola. This name is pleasing and I am very proud to have been named as such.
Why are you joining our happy community?
I was given a mission outside of my main parameters to gather information about this new faction known as CFUD. Reports have shown that there is a rebel base in this encampment and I am here on Maestro Delphine's orders to find any known weak points along their barrier and report back to her.
Do you think you are good in a crisis? Why?
I have been trained in various forms of combat and the use of many different types of weapons. I have also been trained to keep a cool head in battle and take down the enemy by picking apart their defenses through logic and force. Whether it is a crisis or not, I have always done my duty and accomplished the jobs I have been assigned to do.
Do you consider yourself squeamish? Please provide an example.
I am already very familiar with the dead and can see that most of the inhabitants are just that. I do not know how they are able to survive as they are, but they do not provide an urge to be squeamish in any way or form.
Would you be able to dispose of the flesh of the undead? How?
I am not sure whether or not you mean the inhabitants of this camp. They trudge about without any signs of life and, from investigating, they seem to lack a pulse. But the main course of action would probably be to burn them to ashes, leaving no trace as to who or what they were.
Do you find these questions increasingly unnerving? Why/Why not?
I find them strange but not unnerving. I do not see how answering these questions serve any purpose. But it is a means to an end so I will answer them regardless so that I am able to enter this camp.
What traits or things do you believe define you?
. . .The Guild itself defines who I am and without it I would be nothing. As a servant of the Guild, Maestro Delphine and Lord Dio are where my life begins and ends. There is nothing else that brings me greater joy because no other duty would compare to the responsibility I have towards the Guild. Anything else would be a waste because this is the position set in stone for me and I will stand by it with everything that I am.
Do you have any deep personal traumas you might inexplicably be compelled to share in this questionnaire? Please describe.
I apologize but I am not at liberty to share such information. Such things would be seen as heresy to speak of. I have provided you with enough information as is, please do with it as you will. Thank you for your time.
Character: Inigo
Series: Fire Emblem: Awakening
Character Age: 17
Canon: The problem with an unique magical artifacts is that everyone wants it for themselves. The Kingdom of Ylisse houses the Fire Emblem, a weapon that can save the world in its time of need or destroy it. Prince Chrom and his army of Shepherds must protect the Fire Emblem and fight a long war if they wish to save the world. Thankfully, they have a little help from their friends.... from the future.
Inigo has traveled time and space to save the world! ... Actually, that's a lie, Inigo actually traveled to the past to woo all the women in the world. Unfortunately, he tends to be outrageous and naive, putting his foot in his mouth or making dimwitted comments. The son of a dancer called Olivia, he has inherited her shy nature and dancing abilities. However, being a male dancer often causes Inigo to act awkwardly and doubt his strengths. Without having a hateful or angry side, he tries to be optimistic for everyone. Genuinely kind and unashamed of his character, Inigo just wants the world to smile with freedom.
Sample Post:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
Only a few? Pssh, I can do much better than that. Greetings, all you lovely residents of Camp of Words That Are Inappropriate For Children! I am Inigo, a loyal and stalwart champion of the ladies! ... People, I meant people, really. Slip of the tongue. It tends to do that. Stupid tongue.
Why are you joining our happy community?
As I was saying, I am here to liberate and protect the desirable ladies of this encampment, even at the cost of my own life. Of course I would much prefer if I don't die and if you could stop glaring at me, I would be most appreciative. In fact, I can show you how appreciative I can be.
But duty comes first! And my duty is to you, the Number One lady of my heart, even at the expense of my life and my wallet. Fair warning though, I was already pick pocketed by the last Number One lady of my heart. Though now I suppose she's become Number Two. Sniff. It broke my heart.
Do you think you are good in a crisis? Why?
I am excellent in a crisis! Why, just recently, when I was walking down the beach, what did I see? Two undead hooligans taking advantage of a purple humanoid ... thing. I immediately considered the wisest course of action which was to attract the attention of those bullies and deal with them myself.
Thankfully, it paid off and the purple creature was most grateful and, er, very charming. I just don't swing that way.
What if the crisis involved the end of the world? Please explain.
Wow, there must be a lot of those going around! In fact, I have personal experience in these kind of crises! My advice would be to become a warrior of some caliber yourself or to run for the hills. I also approve of running to fight another day but I assure you, I would never abandon a woman in need. Especially if that need happens to be me, if you know what I mean.
But on a more serious note, if the end of the world is here, we have to make the most of our lives by protecting others and making sure they have the chance to smile honestly. No future should be without happiness.
Do you consider yourself squeamish? Please provide an example.
Of course not! Manly men can't afford to be squeami--Eek! Get that rotting arm away from me! I-I have allergies! Deadly allergies! Do you want me to cry?!
Ahem. As I was saying. I am certainly not squeamish. At all. Not even a little.
What's your greatest talent?
That's... so... Y-You can't just ask people that out of the blue! I'm not mentally prepared to give a reasonable response... Okay, let me think, if I had to say it's dan--Wait, no, I take it back! Er. Uhm. It's appreciating women!
... Please believe me.
Would you be able to dispose of the flesh of the undead? How?
Er. Hm. That's certainly a ...valid question of sorts. Pollution by the undead must be a serious issue in this place. Soooo, my best guess would be ... pretend it's not there! Haha, that's a perfect answer. I'm too good at this.
If you could get away with committing one crime and suffer absolutely no consequences, what would you do and why?
Hmm, if I had to be responsible for one crime, it would be to steal the hearts of every lady in the world. Those are consequences I would gladly suffer. Even if they involve pitchforks because that has happened once or twice.
Do you have a five year plan in mind?
Oh, yes, I do! After I charm every girl I can, I'm going to go on a world-wide campaign to make people smile. Wars and inappropriate prison camps can make it difficult to smile and enjoy life, but I will make it happen!
Unless they want me to dance. A man of passion has limits after all. Besides, I'd... probably faint from all the blood rushing into my head.
Character: Thomas Barrow
Series: Downton Abbey
Character Age: in his early 30s
Job: PDA Monitor
Canon: Downton Abbey follows the lives of the aristocratic Crawley family and their servants during the 1910s and beyond at their country home of, you guessed it, Downton Abbey. The show switches between the Crawleys themselves and their tangled love lives and love affairs with their fancy wardrobes and the lives of their servants downstairs, who come complete with their own drama, be it love quadrangles or the constant one-upmanship in an effort to rise in the ranks. As the Crawleys seem to grow and mature over time, the servants do as well, at their own pace. They almost seem to be a tightly knit family to some degree -- except for Thomas Barrow, one of the servants who's scratched and clawed his way up the ranks to the position of under-butler.
Thomas is basically one of the resident mean girls at Downton -- a vicious, cut throat, opportunistic man who also appears to be completely unafraid about what other people think of him. He's cocky and talkative but while he may sound smart at times, this isn't necessarily the case. He stole wine once and later attempted to pin it on a valet, only to have that plan blow up in his face. When he's not on duty, he's more inclined to speak plainly in a somewhat casual manner and give his opinion on things, whether it's wanted or not. A schemer who's at times either looking for a leg up or just bored (or both), Thomas isn't afraid to speak his mind at any given time, whether it's taking a fellow servant down a peg or standing his ground on something he firmly believes in. As a gay man in the early 1900s, while he is completely unashamed of who he is, Thomas is forced to remain closeted which only compounds his reserved and distrustful nature. Which is to say, Thomas isn't all bile and venom; rather, he's a sensitive man with his defenses ramped up to the maximum, opting to push people away instead of letting them in and allowing himself to be hurt.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
And here I would've thought that you would already know the answer to this, seeing as it's you lot that sent me the invite to this place. But alright, I'll indulge you for a bit. Thomas Barrow, under-butler at Downton. Can't say you really need someone like me here, can you? From the sight of this place, it seems like there's not much for me here. I would've liked to see the state of that castle up there, of course. But then again, given that none of us can really make it up there which means there's any number of "surprises" in there ranging from wicked dust to, say, a bunch of corpses the former master stashed there, I'd rather not.
Why are you joining our happy community?
"Happy community," is that how you're describing it now? I don't really see what's so happy about a place where people're trapped in the middle of nowhere with the worst wake-up call at the crack of dawn. Sure, I've said I've been woken up by an ape every now and then in the past, but I never actually meant it. Anyway, can't actually say this was all my choice, you know. It's all more of a "scenic getaway" encouraged by my superior. Is that what they’re calling it these days, with the squid trying to get cozy with anything that moves? Or the charming active volcano that's not too far off? And did I mention the apes yet? Scenic my arse.
What is your job here at CFUD? What do you think that means?
Right, yes, let's have a talk about that, shall we? Let’s start with the part where I wasn't looking for a new job. Things might've been different a year or two ago, but I’m quite satisfied with where I’m at, thank you. "Scenic getaway," remember that? I didn’t think a job'd come along with something like that.
Speaking of that, I'll admit that while my skill set can be, shall we say, varied at times, even I'm at a loss as to what you mean by "PDA Monitor." Can't say I'm that familiar with the term and if I'm not, then what exactly am I supposed to monitor? The possibilities are endless, I suppose, with acronyms and all. "Public Disturbance Agency," "Pretty Damn Annoying" . . . 'course, if it were either of those, I'd have my hands full from dawn to dusk, wouldn't I? Point is, while I understand that this place is a tad different, what with the fancy typewriters and everything, you can't expect a man to be up to speed on that sort of thing in an hour.
Give me a day or two.
Have you committed any crimes you were or should have been convicted from?
Why're you asking me that? You’re the employer -- I would've thought you'd have checked my references by now or something like that. Wouldn't want to hire someone off the street without checking a thing like that now, would you? Imagine, hiring a deviant. Can't always expect people to be honest and say they've been to prison or been improper or maybe pinched a bottle or two of wine and all. But no, not me. Clean as a whistle here.
Are you lying on your previous answer?
What, don't you trust me? Can't imagine why you wouldn't. You did check my references, didn't you?
Remember!
