➥ Bunny
Contact: [plurk.com profile] pfle, PMs
Can We Add You: Sure.
Introduction: Hey all! Bunny, she/her, from the Chicago area. I'm into Your Turn to Die, When They Cry, Puella Magi madoka Magica, various horror game franchises, and other misc series. This is my second or third time playing from an ongoing series and I am ready to somehow get jossed lmao. I'm also in a few online TCGs, so half my plurks are about that or RP but I try to keep it relatively contained.
Availability: Usually after 5-6 CST. I'm not around as much on weekends since I'm getting back to going out into the world. I
Extra: No real preferences.


➥ Rio Ranger
Canon:
Age:
Does Character Have Powers/Cursed Items: Y
Entity Affiliation(s): The Desolation
Permissions: HERE

Information: Ranger is "a doll without a heart." In short, he's an extremely advanced AI that lacks the capacity to feel positive emotions such as love and kindness. But rather being a nurture versus nature type of situation, he just did not have those emotions programmed into him; at the same time, he was given a massive inferiority complex and intense jealousy. So as a consequence, he's exactly what you'd expect from a person like that.

He's kind of like an alien trying to wear a human's skin. He's very dramatic and exaggerated in his gestures, and he is often demeaning and rude and has a sadistic streak, but he's at least smart enough to figure out when to hold it and when to fold it. As an added bonus, he's met like a handful of people in his life and his "family" could be accurately described as "found family but they're all horrible people" so he's never actually been outside or interacted with anybody who wasn't either a weirdo or a participant in a crazy death game. He has a ton of data so he's not really naive, but it's the difference between knowing a fact and having lived experience.

Also, he dresses lie a goddamn clown that rolled through about six different people's closest and came out as this abomination (mostly because he's wearing the clothes of like several different dead people.) Please somebody make him dress like a normal person. As a fun added bonus, he can't smile naturally/authentically so he's constantly carrying around expression cards to compensate for that.

Later in canon he does get the remainder of his emotions back so I'd like him to put that misery later, but for now he'll just be ??? at everything and everyone lmao.
Plotting: I think Ranger's like a lot of characters where he'll be cautiously allying himself with ADI (if only for a lack of anywhere else to go.) It's his first time really being a properly new setting, so I'm sure he'll be getting into everything before long. Open to both positive and negative CR - for the most part, he won't be openly antagonistic, but he's got enough wrong with him that he could easily rub people wrong.
