PLAYER: Mori CHARACTER: Marcell Csorba CANON: Original. Come from a fantasy world that is roughly analogous to the turn of the 19th century, complete with nation states jockeying for power and influence and Politics. Marcelll is a poor sap whose life has been a Wild Ride. He's been a street urchin, petty thief, small-time cardsharp, a doctor’s assistant, then a butler, and a clerk at mercenary guild, just to give you an idea the kind of roller coaster he's been on.
AU NAME: Marcell Matsuoka né Csorba AU AGE: 34 AU OCCUPATION: Tailor BLURB: - Yukine's stepmomdad, happily married to dad. - Originally a Recolle native, his mom was a Hungarian immigrant and dad was a uni student on a sabbatical. They were dumb young adults; dad had cold feet when mom started trying to bring up marriage and bailed unceremoniously without realising a kid was on the way, oops. - M...much unfun ensued, to say the least. Single mom under a lot of pressure and nowhere near ready to raise a child is not great. Eventually committed suicide when Marcell was 10. - Social services manages to track down his dad, now starting up his own toy company, and Marcell gets placed in his custody. Dad is a deeply awkward man who also does not know how to be a parent, but tries his best to take responsibility for this mess he's unknowingly made. At this point Marcell moves out of Recolle and is pretty comfortably middle class with his dad. - Was a quiet child and frequently bullied because of his meekness and 'girly' hobbies. During high school had a period of acting out and was something of a delinquent. Mostly harmless stuff like sneaking out and (attempts at) smoking, though he was also a serial shoplifter before he got caught. He likes to pretend this period never happened. - After getting caught for the above, got his act together. Studied accounting in college at his father's insistence and is, in fact, a certified accountant. - So clearly what he does instead is not get a job as an accountant and decide to take an apprenticeship as a tailor because this is his calling, damn you. Worked as a tailor in the same shop for some time. - At some point meets Yukine's dad and ends up helping around after the divorce, eventually this leads to them dating and marrying. - Moved back to Recolle since husband's job is transferring him there + thinks the change in location will be good for Yukine after the 'freak baseball accident'. - Has opened up his own tailoring store in Recolle. It offers rental services for formalwear, but the main service is bespoke tailoring and made-to-measure dresses.
- Big fussy mom type. The mom friend is him. Ranges between naggy mom and nurturing mom, depending on the other person. - This means he'll also nag people who are younger than him and unofficially adopt people as child/younger sibling figures. - Can come off as high strung; he's a pretty serious, polite and meticulous sort of person. Workaholic. - Easy to tease and fluster. As it turns out being an awkward child means he's only sort of less awkward as an adult, he's just good at being a professional to cover it up. - Hobbies include sewing, knitting, cooking, cleaning, dr...inking...he likes to keep his hands busy. - Semi-devoted Catholic, occasionally volunteers for church outreach and charity programs. His feelings on faith are a little Complicated as a Catholic who ended up being raised by Protestant family.
LOOKING FOR: -Friends! Whether current friends or childhood friends who may have known him while he was still living in Recolle or during high school, whatever. - MORE FAMILY. Csorba is his mother's surname which he kept even after he started living with his dad, and I can easily imagine he eventually got married and Marcell might have half-siblings from this. Cousins and other relatives are also acceptable! - Kids and/or young adults he nags and fusses over and may or may not have basically adopted. Especially if they are shy or troubled. - If you are friends with Yukine you may know him as the somewhat embarrassing mom. - Employees for his tailoring store, whether they're full-time or interns/apprentices! He's pretty strict and perfectionist, but will do his best to encourage developing their skills and creativity. Also maybe remind your boss to take a break because he's, bad about being a workaholic sometimes. - Customers/clients for his store, whether it's for the rentals or because they want a fancy suit/dress made just for them. - Drinking buddies he goes out with occasionally. He likes his alcohol, though he's generally responsible enough to be designated driver/sober person for a group. - Shady types so he can question his life decisions once he regains memories about his own past shadiness. - Whatever else come at me bro. OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I have another OC on the workshop, Kouran, forget what I said about my N/A earlier because Kimmeh is a dirty, dirty enabler. Whoever doesn't get apped this round will be apped the next round, time permitting.
