CHARACTER: Ainchase Ishmael (Ain)
CANON: Elsword
AU NAME: Ainchase Richter
AU AGE: 21-25
AU OCCUPATION: University student
BLURB:
- Half-English, half-German. Born to a rich family who work in a large biomanufacturing company. Only child.
- Parents often moved for business-related reasons, bringing them to Recolle for their current phase of operations.
- Studies biology-related subjects in university. Depending on the age I decide for him, he's either an undergraduate or doing his masters. He picked this course to be of use to his family's business.
- Privileged (tm) and he knows it. Born with intellect meant that he had high expectations piled onto him, which he fulfils with fervour.
- Basically, he's That One Guy in college who seems to love studying and never turns up for social events.
- He only rarely experiences failure. This started first with his parents using their influence to help him, which proceeded to fuel his near-obsession with producing perfect results. I intend to have him mess up majorly once he's in the game, and he has to deal with the fallout from that as a lesson.
- At first appearance, he's very polite and witty, with a subtle charming manner.
- That is kind of a lie however, as he's impatient towards everyone who can't keep up with him and sees strangers more as hindrances.
- Due to his exceptional focus on his own goals, he can be somewhat selfish and brutally honest towards people who underperform.
- Basically, he's an asshole. A honest asshole with a pretty face.
- However, he won't criticise people without basis, or insult them just for the fun of it. That's a line that he draws, though it's probably not obvious to other people.
- Due to the fact that he's privileged enough to have success, he thinks himself a good judge of character and will try to help people that he thinks are worth helping (e.g. if your character is hardworking and comes from a low-income household, working with him consistently will result in him buying food and other stuff for them)
- Of course, even if his arrogance is backed up in part by his ability, he is still pretty self-centered and needs to be knocked down a peg or two.
- On the more mundane side of things, he likes refined things due to his upbringing and thus has an eye for aesthetic.
- He is aware that skincare routines and makeup are probably not very masculine but gives zero fucks about other people's opinions.
- Plays the harp for Extra Pretentiousness (tm)
- Draws like crap and is secretly ashamed of it.
- Instead of having grey hair with blue highlights, he will only have grey hair. His natural hair colour is blonde, he just dyed it to look Cool (tm). He does not have his ahoge, but keeps the side braid. It will eventually become bright turquoise.
- His green eyes remain, though they are less of a technicolour shade than canon.
- Still wears earrings. They're slim triangles with a blue gem set into each, and he uses just this one design.
LOOKING FOR:
Because of the nature of his character arc, I am looking for long term cr who can help him with (or push him down the wrong end of) character development. I'd like to go into the game with a reasonable pool of pre-cr as well, so that I can bug your characters immediately without having to deal with Ain's in-built stuffiness.
He needs friends and acquaintances who can see past his 'stuck-up jerk' aura and try to get him to change. Once he considers someone to be on his level, his harshness decreases significantly and he can be a supportive friend. His general attitude is also not the best, so he'll definitely attract negative CR. Feel free to resent him for being privileged, being brutally honest, or just as a guy who fits the rich snob archetype.
His canon self is an angel, so I can also offer memory regain opportunities of the magical and cataclysmic variety. He will have to grapple with his memories showing him a path where he can attain perfection (as his personal worth is highly dependent on the amount of accomplishments he can make) as well as the prospect of losing emotions/his sense of self and sublimating into an unthinking puppet.
I can also app him from his 'grimdark' route where his memories are instead filled with soul corruption and lovecraftian void horrors, but that might need a lot more work and I'm not sure if it's an option people would want to play with. Please let me know if you are, though!

ANYWAYS hi i'm here for this but you already knew that. it would be really easy for rose to hate him since FUCK RICH PEOPLE but idk if you wanna have that as pre-established cr since it might be hard for us to bug each other if so LMAO...
no subject
FSDJLKFJSDLJFKLSD I just imagine for now they just. pass each other and throw snide insults at each other, but really, after regains They Are Not That Different anymore...
maybe he's on slightly better terms with her siblings and thus restrains his shitty attitude
no subject
THAT WOULD MAKE SENSE her sisters are a million times easier to get long with.... rose probably actively tries to make him not restrain his shitty attitude because she likes knowing that he's not so above it all deep down

As for whether they'd actually be friends... it depends!! Jamie tends to be clueless and clumsy, but he is a hard worker and a good student who always pulls his weight in group projects, and for the most part he's pretty nonjudgmental! HOWEVER, he's also got really terrible self-esteem and Issues and stuff, so if they got off to a bad enough start, Jamie could easily have ended up concluding that this guy is possibly a dick but definitely hates him, so the only option is to stay out of his way forever. So it'd be up to you. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
He IS lowkey broke though (even if he recently came into ownership of a pretty nice blender), so, you know, if you want to be friends and buy him shit, he 100% won't mind THAT
also void horrors sound great but it's your decision
no subject
also my main concern with void horrors is that it costs A LOT to buy back but that's more of a personal decision of tagging pace, laughs

can't do anything if you don't look fabulous tbh
also i'm not sure how far kashuu is with his development of being a sword spirit but at least ain would also have some Problems with being a complete tool in the past.... maybe kashuu has some stuff to say about it when the time comes??
no subject
he's remembered a whole bunch by now though and has come to accept at least some of it, so for sure he could talk to ain when Actual Tool In Another Life problems start popping up. HE'LL GANBATTE FOR HIS FRIEND

laughs because Four described Minato best: "0 or 1000% there's no in between" in that he either overdoes things or doesn't even try at all, which is probably going to be a huge source of frustration.
Minato's roommates with Jamie though, if they become/are pre-cr friends! idk, points at you, cr etc.
no subject
I was meaning to ask your opinion actually because grimdark route deals with stuff similar to apathy syndrome and the End Of The World and stuff like that, so maybe interesting things can happen??
He's friends with Minako so I'd imagine Minato's attitude won't rag too much on him... gotta be nice and buy him some food.

Leon is originally from Hong Kong and is the heir to a technology company. His family has all sorts of dealings with other international companies, so maybe their families could have be business partners and they could have known each other for a while because of their connections?
no subject
that's a great idea, actually! I'd love the idea of rich heir CR... where does Leon draw the line of looking down on people, though
