Character info
Character name: Glitch
Canon: Original
Canon point & release date: Deerington AU as it closed down
CRAU (if applicable): Yes. He's coming in at the age of 18 from being back in his world and finding out the truth of it and also the growth he had in Deerington. What this means is he's grown as a person. He's a bit more mature, more quiet and reserved. With his time in Deerington he also gained combat skills under the RWBY cast there.
Powers (no more than 150 words):
Electrokinesis - He has the ability to generate, absorb and create lightning. He can't be harmed by it and is able to manipulate it to how he desires.
Metal manipulation - With his electrical powers he's able to control metal. Basically like telekinesis but it's strictly metal based. He can sense it to a degree as well.
Personality
What is your character most afraid of? How are they defined by this fear? (100-300 words)
Glitch has a deep-seated fear of losing his mind. He witnessed lots of people his age back home becoming drooling husks of themselves and dying awful deaths due to not being able to take care of themselves. It terrifies him with the thought that his body could be his own prison with him unable to ever think clearly or feel. It also ties into his fear of losing the people he cares about. He had only so many people he could trust that the thought of even losing himself would mean losing the few connections he did make. There’s also the fact of him losing his agency of himself to never be able to make a single decision again.
What is your character's greatest desire? How are they defined by this desire? (100-300 words)
His Greatest desire was to take care of the people he loved. He was often a protector always looking out for those few he could. He would often steal, and take on more work than he should just to be able to provide them with basic living conditions. He never wanted for anyone, friends or those younger than him to suffer the same horrible treatments so it made him all the more willing to fight back. He would be aggressive, throw hands with anyone who did cross him or his own. It left him with an overwhelming sense of loyalty to those he marks as his friends. But, it’s left him with other deep trust issues that if he were betrayed that he would become absolutely cold or distant. When Glitch cares about people, he cares with his entire being and his only wish was so he and they would at least be somewhat happy.
How will not having memories change your character? What core personality traits, if any, will change? How? (200-300 words)
Without the memories of his trauma from both Deerington and in his own World he's going to be coming in as a somewhat blank slate. He will be far more quiet and withdrawn, not confrontational as he used to.
Glitch would be more willing to fight back against others that harmed people he cared about or the younger kids. Without any connection to people, he would become more passive, probably choosing to ignore it since it doesn’t involve him.
Glitch was often snarky and rude to people he didn’t know as a defense mechanism for not knowing if he could trust others or not. While he may not trust people in Well, he definitely won’t be bringing up all his walls to keep them out.
His sense of humour will change a bit. While he still may be snarky it won’t be as jaded as it used to be. With no awful experiences to fall back on it’s going to be less deprecating.
His biggest fear will not be around which will make him less to have a freak out at people not knowing who they are or who he is. Losing your sense of self was a big scary thing for Glitch so it’s not something he’ll be carrying anymore.
While Glitch was often very distrustful of strangers due to his life experiences. Without them, he’ll likely trust more easily without a second thought, for good or ill.
