Information: A police detective from an alternate world resembling ours, Harry exists in a chaotic and often unpredictable state of mind. This is partly attributed to retrograde amnesia, which he became afflicted with a week before arriving here. It's also partly attributed to being an insane man. He means well and wants to be a good cop, but is prone to being self-absorbed, manic, unable to retain focus, and is supremely nosy and prodding into people's lives and their business. Also deeply annoying when it comes to *anything* related to politics (can entities be fed through aggravation??) which he will try to interject at any moment into a conversation. That and disco. Excessive hubris that delivers immediate karmic justice is Harry's life story.
ADI Thoughts: Harry works between Security & Investigations departments. He's not distrustful of the ADI, but leans more skeptical of them. He thinks it's important to question the nature of the work he does, having the experiencing of waking up to a new reality and discovering he's a cop firsthand. At the moment he has no inclination to plot against the ADI, though won't judge anyone who isn't trusting. Don't be a big-time narc kids.
CR Wanted: I'm interested in both positive and negative CR. On the positive side could be other cops/detectives, people with tragisympathetic backstories that he's a sucker for, #TheYouths (he has very "how do you do fellow kid" interactions in DE), and really anyone patient and nice enough to put up with his nonsense. He is also an alcoholic in recovery but can be easily swayed into backsliding as much as he tries to be on the path to proper health.
On the more negative side, criminals could be fun to interact off given the opposing dynamics, and if anyone just can't stand his attitude that could be fun to explore. He has no problem chatting with people who hate him because he just kind of assumes everyone will on default when they learn his profession. Life experience!
CR Not Wanted: N/A - I'm happy to see where all CR goes, good or bad.
Extra: One thing to mention is Harry has a lot of toxic masculinity internalized in him and while he's more damaging of himself, he may end up saying things that could hurt others too. On that note he does have suicidal tendencies and ideations, none of which I ever plan to write him seriously acting on but that come out in his reckless behavior. Let's just say he had a history of threatening it to get attention and respect, big yikes! He has very little regard for his own life or safety and often pushes things too far as a result.
There are a lot of serious themes DE plays on, some of which I incorporate and others I don't given how I've set my version of the character up. If there's anything you ever want to opt out of, even if it's threading all together, you can comment on my permissions page!
Visuals: Harry's two states of operating are:
