Character Name: James Canon: Pokémon; or, The Modern Prometheus Brief Personality: A career criminal who is much less evil than he likes to think he is. Human incarnation of the comic sans font.
Dancer, pianist, violinist, award winning poet, engineer, inventor, expert hacker and thief, able to infiltrate just about anyplace and not be detected, able to read dead languages but thinks with his heart instead of his head so he often comes across as a scatter-brained idiot.
Very naive and extremely emotional.
A mask of bravado covers low self-confidence, though his actual sense of self is very strong.
Places huge value in freedom, free will and personhood.
Appearance: A tall, androgynous young man in his mid twenties with periwinkle hair. He usually dresses either in a button down t-shirt or a more Verens style but so far has not put on his Team Rocket uniform.
Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: Both, but he leans more towards adventure. Current Activities/Developments: Living by the lake, working on repairing a Brinndosi sentry that he is secretly planning to eventually turn into something else that he can use to capture an Arehtei (this is extremely long term). Currently trying to find work and people he can sell some old artifacts to. Future Developments: As mentioned above, his long term project is studying the Brinndosi mech and trying to build a mech of his own so he can use it to capture an Arehtei for Team Rocket since he's convinced they're legendary Pokémon. This is VERY long term. Someday I think it would be interesting for him to at least look into Dunamis. Shipping/Romance: I am not seeking shipping but am open to anything that happens organically. James has some complicated, unexamined feelings for his teammate back home, though, and is generally a bit of a mess when it comes to relationships due to past trauma. It's unlikely he'll end up shipping material, but people are welcome to have their characters crush on him.
Seeking: Any kind of CR! Positive, negative, friends, enemies... Weird complicated dynamics are also my jam. Don't feel shy about tossing characters at James who may clash with him. Offering: James can offer many types of CR. He can be very emotionally aware and deeply empathetic but he's not very sympathetic. He might form intense bonds with someone or rob them blind. He can be a jerk but once he's decided someone is a friend he's fiercely loyal. Not Interested In/Avoiding: It's all good.
