Character Survey of Doom Meme
Body and Appearance
1. Describe the character's height and build. Is he heavyset, thin, short, rangy? Tall and thinner built, athletic/field-combat muscled definitely leaning less "heavy" muscle; his fighting style's honestly something that encourages a lot of agility and movement.
2. How old is he? At canon point, 21.
3. Describe his posture. Does he carry himself well or does he slouch? Straight and pretty dominant; he's raised military and upper-class, with emphasis on the knighthood/military.
4. How is his health? Is he fit or out of shape? Any illnesses or conditions? Any physical disabilities? Technically he's in good health and good shape, although as of canon point he's probably under a lot of over-stress.
5. How does he move? Is he clumsy, graceful, tense, fluid? He plays off calm well, and straight-postured, and he can be very fluid when he's in combat, but he's got a lot of tension underneath it; particularly with everything that's been going on, he doesn't relax easily.
6. How attractive is this character physically? How does he perceive himself in the mirror?
7. Describe his complexion. Dark, light, clear, scarred? Light, pretty healthy for the most part; as much as he's had access to healing magic, he's probably got some good scars from monster hunting and trials, as well as things like his failed attempt on Cagnazzo. The main Cagnazzo scars are one from a deep gash on one arm and a massive sharkbite-looking scar around his left shoulder/arm.
8. Describe his hair: color, texture, style. Blonde, straight, and pretty long; it's got just enough weight to it to survive being probably a bit past his tailbone if it's not tied up.
9. What color are his eyes? Blue, lighter shade.
10. Does the character have any other noteworthy features? He'll probably lapse into some body language/stances that're associated with his spear work if he's not thinking, and he's used to high perches and high mobility. He's also left handed.
11. What are his chief tension centers? It's spread pretty evenly, and I could almost joke about "all over" lately.
12. What is the character's wardrobe like? Casual, dressy, utilitarian? Bright colors, pastels, neutrals? Is it varied, or does he have six of the same suit? Technically utilitarian; as ornate as his armor looks, it's armor, and it's meant for the field. Out of armor he's probably got a couple things that're nicer/"formal" by period standards just because of his relative rank/status, but he's way too active and job-oriented to be comfortable in it when he doesn't need to be. As of his arrival, he's in basically the underclothes for his armor; clothing meant to be worn under armor for padding and because it's generally uncomfortable to be wearing JUST that much metal...So there's a gambeson/arming doublet with some battered-up remnants of chain and scale *going by what I can extrapolate of his armor*, something that's almost as much light cloth chaps as slacks, a light vest and long-sleeved undershirt underneath the gambeson, and light/soft leather boots meant to go under the greaves and metal. Ryslig: He has a tailored pair of essentially black shorts that stop just above his knees and have a buttoned space for his tail; he doesn't wear anything else anymore, although when he's more confident in control of the fire magic he may go back to wearing an heirloom "necklace".
13. Do his clothes fit well? Does he seem comfortable in them? I will again note equivalent period etc., and that it IS likely literally tailored to him, at least what he'd be coming into anything with. Ryslig: Also custom-tailored, so.
14. Does he dress the same on the job as he does in his free time? If not, what are the differences? .......................There is not really a strong distinction where he's from between "Job" and "Free time" in a role like this, although him being "always in armor" is something I chalk up to game sprites and technology/genre conventions especially in an older game; more accurately he'd be wearing the armor mostly when he was expecting combat or actively "On Duty", or in a situation to make a show of his station as a Dragoon.
15. You knew it was coming: Boxers, briefs or commando? What he has is probably closer to boxers but not really the same/a bit longer-legged.
Speech
1. What does this character's voice sound like? High-pitched, deep, hoarse? Here.
2. How does he normally speak? Loud, soft, fast, evenly? Does he talk easily, or does he hesitate?
3. Does the character have a distinct accent or dialect? Any individual quirks of pronunciation? Any, like, you know, verbal tics? Particularly after his stint of control, he's pretty succinct and direct; he's a little more prone to occasionally trailing off and speaking in "just enough to get the point across" fragments now.
4. What language/s does he speak, and with how much fluency? Any linguistics here are headcanon! I'm pretty sure there's a good number of little regional languages with the different nations, esp. considering that they've all got pretty noticeable terrain barriers. ON THAT NOTE, esp. considering that there's signs that before the King went nuts there -WAS- contact and Kain's definitely in a position to be both educated and "You're going to be dealing with the other countries sometimes", he probably speaks at least enough to get by of most of the overworld languages.
5. Does he switch languages or dialects in certain situations? Probably whatever's most prevalent around the people he's with at the time, unless he has a reason to only want specific people understanding him.
6. Is he a good impromptu speaker, or does he have to think about his words? When he is talking it's pretty off the cuff; he doesn't hesitate, although some subjects he might do thinking pauses to plan.
7. Is he eloquent or inarticulate? Under what circumstances might this change? He's straightforward and blunt, but not really inarticulate, just not someone who's going to be going flowery on anyone.
Mental and Emotional
1. How intelligent is this character? Is he book-smart or street-smart? Reasonably smart; it's pretty tactical/practicality oriented.
2. Does he think on his feet, or does he need time to deliberate? What deliberation he does is pretty internal, and he's very much a "seize the chance" kind of person; he'll think things over given time, but he doesn't really debate what he's going to do with others or hesitate much.
3. Describe the character's thought process. Is he more logical, or more intuitive? Idealistic or practical? Hahahahahaha. This is kind of a tangled mess where it's all going to feed into each other; he basically filters intuition through logic and ideals through practical reasoning. His instincts and intuition vibes get investigated and reasoned through, and his ideals are pounded out through what will actually work pragmatically.
4. What kind of education has the character had? Some for being nobility, but it's probably lopsided by modern standards - very focused on things relevant to his role and station, not a lot of depth on things that aren't.
5. What are his areas of expertise? What, if anything, is he interested in learning more about? His expertise is in military tactics, siege defense, some special variations on both of the above for the setting - airship tactics and how to deal with various monsters; considering the heavy implications that the Dragoons used to work with wyverns, he at least knows how it's supposed to work, even if the last wyvern around the castle was his father's. He's got a basic idea of what different mages are capable of and what limitations to either mind in his own side or exploit on the enemy side. He's also got the local history of his nation which's utterly useless anywhere else, and command structure/leadership. He'll pick up things that register as useful, but his interests really are pragmatic-practical; he's not going to focus too much on learning more than ambient bits of something that he doesn't have a use for, but can focus pretty well on pursuing something where he's lacking and does have a use. He has a partial grasp of anatomy, enough to both know where to aim and to deal with field-bandaging in a pinch.
6. Is he an introvert or an extrovert? Hard to say; as of canon point he's kind of an introvert by virtue of depression bouts. Judging by some of the negative-space build around what is seen of interactions with his men, he's probably a little more middle-range leaning extrovert normally, but it depends a lot on the context; get a certain range past "his interests and circles that overlap with them somehow", and the risk of him suddenly needing to go floss his weasels spikes exponentially.
7. Describe the character's temperament. Is he even-tempered or does he have mood swings? Cheerful or melancholy? Laid-back or driven? He's very outwardly calm, controlled, and composed. Outwardly. It very rarely shows big dramatic wobbles anymore, and what obvious displays he does are still fairly contained or at least appropriate and calculated usually; he doesn't do a lot of big outbursts. Underneath that, for all that he's usually self-aware enough to make sure it's not noticeable to others and that he's controlling what IS visible, he kind of runs at 400%, albeit not very fast to change directions; he feels very strongly about things, and it takes time to get him to change direction on something, and it can be very sharp when he does change direction but not visible until after he's thought it over or his reactions have had time to shift. Early on before everything went to Hell he was noticeably more upbeat, even if he was still pretty outwardly calm and focused; he's gone quieter and more melancholy since.
8. How does he respond to new people or situations? Is he suspicious, relaxed, timid, enthusiastic? Outwardly calm, patient, and ... maybe not entirely approachable right now, but relaxed and nonhostile. Of course, he's also paying attention and gauging the fuck out of it to figure out what he's dealing with, but that part isn't so obvious usually.
9. Is he more likely to act, or to react? He much prefers to act, and has basically been raised in a style and school of combat that lends itself more to a philosophy of decisive action and picking timing to try to take control over the situation.
10. Which is his default: fight or flight? Fight, mostly; for all that he's pretty well accepted dying in the line of duty as a distinct possibility, and isn't afraid of it, he doesn't see it as something to seek out, and he will run from unwinnable fights or untenable situations, and grab other people to make sure they're also running because he doesn't care for the idea of "noble sacrifices".
11. Describe the character's sense of humor. Does he appreciate jokes? Puns? Gallows humor? Bathroom humor? Pranks? Honestly even when he was more upbeat, it ran a little more towards sarcasm, gallows humor, and military humor, just a little less grim in delivery and outlook. Right now it's dry sarcasm and black humor almost entirely, and there's not a whole lot of energy behind it.
12. Does the character have any diagnosable mental disorders? If yes, how does he deal with them? Eeeh, marginal at current and he's still in the middle of a pretty severe stress situation. He's one HELL of an Acute Stress Disorder risk; judging by extended canon it's not going to swing towards PTSD, just bad life choices. He's not in a great place mentally, and is definitely having a depressive period/in and out of a mild-to-moderate depression for a while yet.
13. What moments in this character's life have defined him as a person?
*- His father's mentioned as being the previous captain of the Dragoons, and a big influence on Kain's insistence on going the same road. He's also described as having been pretty harsh and strict, enough that while Kain clearly respected the hell out of him, it wasn't exactly a warm, fluffy, happy relationship.
*- He was somewhat adopted by the King after his father died, and raised alongside Cecil. It's canonly noted that even before the divergence where the King had wanted them both to train as Dark Knights and Kain refused, Cecil'd been the one that was actually treated as a son and had clear favor, while Kain was more of an adopted ward that was looked out for. This impacted a lot of his later personality and really didn't help the competitive jealousy thing.
*- The Dragoons had just about been disbanded; they reformed as his stubborn example (and that of the faith his father's wyvern had kept in keeping watch) inspired others to take up the spear again. Becoming captain of a rebuilt Dragoon order was one of Kain's first real successes in life.
*- And going to Mist Village with Cecil was where he was given a chance to face the decision between his honor and morality, and the post he'd fought so hard for and whatever relationship he had with the King. He seems to have actually committed to "Fuck this, my honor is more important and this is wrong" while Cecil was still locking up a bit, and nudged Cecil out of the lockup and into committing as well.
*- And then he went back to the castle to try to figure out WTF was going on and got controlled, which pretty quickly reversed what had been one Hell of a turn of not just fighting for his own accolades and goals, but fighting to be the better person and likely something that was the most positive thing he could've done there, into him getting swatted down and turned into everything he'd just been swearing he was going to fight against, with a pretty dramatic change in his behavior when he gets free of it the first time to show for the trauma.
14. What does he fear? Well, his free will being used as a yo-yo is a rather big and very present fear at canon point. The other big one is himself; he's still sorting through just how deep the worse side of his personality goes, and the amount of Zeromus/Golbez's control that was fanning his own worse traits has him disturbed and alarmed at what he's capable of. He's afraid of hurting people he cares about and innocents, and afraid that if he crosses the wrong threshold even without the control, that he'll end up in a place where he's not only causing that kind of death and suffering but is perfectly happy to be doing so.
15. What are his hopes or aspirations? As of canon point: The world not being scoured to ash. The people close to him not dying. Hopefully no further damage to his city and some of the others, or no further serious damage. Getting shot of the control for good and not being something else's puppet. After that, sorting out what's left of his life and trying to make up for the damage he's done and figure out how to actually be who he wants to be, with the worse parts that were brought to life dealt with and less of a lurking undercurrent.
16. What is something he doesn't want anyone to find out about him? He wobbles back and forth, but as much as he's not comfortable with people ascribing his actions to "It wasn't really you", he doesn't really want to go into detail on what was actually him.
Relationships
1. Describe this character's relationship with his parents. His mother's never mentioned, and was probably out of the picture somehow pretty young. *There's some canon nods to death in childbirth being a very real and period-accurate risk even with some availability of healing magic in some parts of the world, and the mentions of his father's death also imply being actively aimed at, which may've gone for her as well. While he respected his father and looked up to him a great deal, enough to be intent on building up and maintaining the Dragoons when they were almost disbanded in disrepair after his father's death - very much following in his father's footsteps - there's also mention of his father being harsh and strict, enough that it wasn't entirely a happy relationship.
2. Does the character have any siblings? What is/was their relationship like? No blood siblings.
3. Are there other blood relatives to whom he is close? Are there ones he can't stand? He doesn't seem to have any other known blood family.
4. Are there other, unrelated people whom he considers part of his family? What are his relationships with them? After his father's death, he was adopted by the king, making Cecil sort-of a sibling by adoption. He looked up to the king although there was definitely some snarls, since Cecil was pretty obviously favored and him deciding to follow his father as a dragoon instead of becoming a dark knight wasn't what the king had wanted. The early difference in how close and affectionately the king treated Cecil compared to how Kain was handled fanned the rivalry out of jealousy and frustration at not getting that kind of acceptance; thanks to Rosa's influence, and likely partly Cecil's own reactions when he wasn't getting picked on, the hostility towards Cecil tempered down, but his relationship with the King kind of was still a little bit of trying to prove his worth and earn the same kind of close regard that Cecil has. It's likely a question he's not sure he wants answered when Cagnazzo replaced the king, or if there was a period of time where the King was falling under influence and giving unconscionable orders. Cid's known both him and Cecil since they were younger and manages to be a sort of odd uncle.
5. Who is/was the character's best friend? How did they meet? Cecil mentioned above, as rocky as it was when they were younger.
6. Does he have other close friends? Rosa's the longest of them, and knew both of them when they were children; she was the one that managed to drag them out of fighting with each other and probably helped get Kain learning to deal with others when he was younger in ways other than confrontations. He spends a lot of time with his ranking dragoons, and he actually seems weirdly fond of Edge even if the kid is still reckless-stubborn; things with Rydia are a little more complicated since there's still that other bit of guilt and responsibility for her losing her village as well as everything he's done while controlled since.
7. Does he make friends easily, or does he have trouble getting along with people? He doesn't really form attachments to people very easily, but he's more likely to just gauge and idly poke at things figuring out who and what he's dealing with and how comfortable he is with them before he settles, with the testing far less confrontational than it could be - thanks mostly to Rosa's influence.
8. Which does he consider more important: family or friends? He doesn't have any living family, but Rosa, Rydia, and Cecil are incredibly important to him.
9. Is the character single, married, divorced, widowed? Has he been married more than once? Single, never married, and is probably occasionally dodging marriage proposals with his rank and station.
10. Is he currently in a romantic relationship with someone other than a spouse? Nope. With what's been going on recently it'll probably be a while before he even considers it. Even if someone did catch his attention, he likely wouldn't pursue without some leverage towards being less uncomfortable with himself, particularly in romantic context.
11. Who was his first crush? Who is his latest? Rosa, as of somewhere as they were growing up, and that's a torch he's still carrying, even if it is tangled up in some of the reasons he's not really on great terms with himself right now.
12. What does he look for in a romantic partner? Once he gets his head screwed on straighter, likely someone with a stronger personality or at least the ability to keep up with and stand up to him; an actual partnership where they're working with and helping support in some respect, and someone able and willing to both care about him and keep some of his more stupid impulses in check.
13. Does the character have children? Grandchildren? If yes, how does he relate to them? If no, does he want any? None, and it's not something that's going to be on his mind until he's managed to deal with his own inner demons.
14. Does he have any rivals or enemies? Even for Cecil being someone he values and cares about, he's still competitive and proving he's as good as or finding a way to be better than is a thing. Golbez is currently the stuff of his nightmares for the aforementioned "using his free-will as a yoyo".
15. What is the character's sexual orientation? Where does he fall on the Kinsey scale? Recovering Unrequited Single Target. He knows it's not healthy, he's working on that. Considering that said Single Target is female, he can't be higher than a 3 at most.
16. How does he feel about sex? How important is it to him? Frustrated. See last question. Also "Holy shit I don't like some of what got dug out of my psyche, brb, not comfortable with self enough to get close to someone else right now".
17. What are his turn-ons? Turn-offs? Weird bedroom habits? See last two questions. Pretty sure he's harder to turn off than on, although at this point, "Being Barbariccia or reminding him of her existence when he's himself" would do it, or anything where something reminds him too much of what he was like when controlled. Including his own behavior. With his issues with himself right now, until he gets over that whole "I don't like/trust myself" thing, he'd actually prefer the other party taking lead after a point, and restraints might not be a bad way to get him to relax and stop getting hung up on his issues.
Beliefs
1. Do you know your character's astrological (zodiac of choice) sign? How well does he fit type? Alien world, none of it applies. If it did fit, I'm pretty sure his chart would be kind of Scorpio and Aries all over, emphasis on the Scorpio, and Dragon actually does fit for the Chinese for more than pun value.
2. Is this character religious, spiritual, both, or neither? How important are these elements in his life? ...........Well, he's actively dealing with crystals that are tied to the balance of powers and life on his world, and in a group with someone who summons and was half raised by a form of higher beings. It makes for a very strange perspective where there's definitely a Hell of a lot of respect, and it's a very present factor in life more than a "religion" exactly. He'll swear by Bahamut as the Hallowed Father of the Eidolons and Patriarch of Dragonkind, and Bahamut's the patron deity of his order. The Eidolon Odin also holds personal significance, but it's a bit of a different kind of respect, since Odin has only recently become an Eidolon and was the King that raised them in life; he's still having some processing errors figuring out how to handle "adoptive second father is now a god".
Ryslig: He's aligned himself with the Fourth God and has pretty much sorted it the way he'd list the Eidolons; he still doesn't really distinguish "God" from "Eidolon" very well, anyway. He'll pray to more than one god as a measure of respect, which at this point includes the Day and Night gods, and he still prays to Bahamut out of habit and comfort even if he's pretty sure he's a little out of range for anything. There's also an occasional prayer/offering tossed into the sea for Leviathan in the "I don't expect much but it can't hurt to try" hopes of Leviathan finding him, if the world's still there.
3. Does this character have a personal code of morals or ethics? If so, how did that begin? What would it take to compromise it? He does, and it likely started with his father drilling into him the code and purpose of the dragoons. He can be tugged into fudging it some on loyalty and orders, but that doesn't last very long before he'll choose it over the authority and turn on whoever gave the orders. To completely compromise it, immortal dark entities influencing him and using some of his own worse nature can pretty well piff almost all of it...but honestly, shutting down a person's conscience and better nature is cheating for this one, and even then it only takes fairly simple leverage of the right kind to get him fighting it hard.
4. How does he regard beliefs that differ from his? Is he tolerant, intolerant, curious, indifferent? Is it threatening his people, his friends, or his land? If N--> Huh, that's interesting, mostly indifferent. If Y --> Kill it and erase it from existence.
5. What prejudices does he hold? Are they irrational or does he have a good reason for them? ...At this point, not really much, they've had pretty much all of the groups in their world throwing together in the face of a common threat, and he's been yanked around by the common threat.
Daily Life
1. What is the character's financial situation? Is he rich, poor, comfortable, in debt? He's one of the highest ranking military in something of a feudal-ish society, and is one of the two raised by the king; he's pretty comfortably well off and living in the castle.
Ryslig: Better than he likes to admit; he'd been working bodyguard for the daughter of a movie-studio publicist, and had negotiated extra wages for anything where he'd also end up being a spectacle intentionally or not. He wasn't using most of what he earned, either, just stashing it. He's also been earning income from selling his statue-sheddings.
2. What is his social status? Has this changed over time, and if so, how has the change affected him? See above; he's the captain of the Dragoons, which apparently are one of the old and previously-esteemed knightly orders. Some sort of unspecified past events and an increasing reliance on the airships dropped the order out of favor enough that, while still prestigious and close to the king, they almost disbanded completely after his father's death; he managed to rally and revive it out of pure stubborn example. After his father's death, the king essentially adopted him. The adoption was more "looking after" than "this is my son", but it counts for something in terms of status besides his post. Worth noting that there's pretty strong precedent that being the son of the previous captain wouldn't have gotten him into the position alone, and that Baron does have a tradition of trials and tests for some of the more prestigious units, much less leadership. Odds are that, much like what's mentioned about Cecil and the way Ceodore's treated, being his father's son just meant he was faced with higher expectations and held to higher standards than others in training, not that it was a given he'd get the post and earn the same rank and position.
(Ryslig) The monsters are kind of ... in a weird sort of status; for Vandare and some other areas he'd be a bit of a pariah, in Bavan it's mixed reactions with a lot of fascination. Specifically he's potentially well-off, he's just kind of being stray-cat about it because he's not fond of his ward.
3. Where does he live? House, apartment, trailer? Is his home his castle or just a place to crash? What condition is it in? Does he share it with others? In the castle itself; there's never canon attention drawn to "this is his room", but it's probably in the tower the Dragoons use as a barracks, granting that he's probably got a floor to himself. The castle's been through some shit and he hasn't been in it for a while; he's got more immediate concerns than whether or not one of the servant staff is making sure it's kept up. When not under that kind of duress, it's vaguely well kept; not spotless-neat without staff intervention, but presentable.
And yes, his home is his castle, in a very literal sense even if he isn't the main authority there.
Ryslig: He's just acquired a house on the outskirts of Bavan that's kind of Stauf Manor (7th Guest) meets Bates Motel. It's been abandoned for a while and probably has issues occasionally with the pipes/electricity acting weird and the phone cutting out just due to disrepair, there's spiders, the furniture's still under dustclothes mostly and may be creaky and old, there's probably some old bones in the cement floor in the basement, and the locals don't like going near it, but it's a place and he owns it.
4. Besides the basic necessities, what does he spend his money on? Some of it goes into the Dragoons, and there's some overlap between his personal finances and theirs. Some of it goes into expeditions into the mountains occasionally that're equal parts looking for nests and signs of surviving wild wyverns to help rebuild the order, and going into the wilderness to blow off steam when something hits one of his nerves the wrong way too hard. He has a far less distinctive, more typical-sellsword looking spear and set of armor for some of his expeditions, particularly the ones where he's trying to get away from things for a while. He's more likely to spend on luxuries as morale stints for his men than for himself.
(Ryslig) Not much right now. There's occasional fits of boredom and curiosity that lead to things like going to the movies because it's not something he's seen before and things like that, but he hasn't really settled enough to be getting that comfortable.
5. What does he do for a living? Is he good at it? Does he enjoy it, or would he rather be doing something else? Captain of the Dragoon Knights of Baron, an order that used to be basically the nation's pride; they've since fallen apart, with the airship fleet taking over that spot, although he's salvaged it into something that still holds high esteem. He's good enough to keep that despite being technically gimped for not having a dragon partner, and he fought damn hard for that post, although he'd like to rebuild it enough for it to hold the respect it once did, at least when his head's on straighter.
6. What are his interests or hobbies? How does he spend his free time? Kain does not have a whole hell of a lot of a life as far as hobbies. He's learned to maintain his own armor and he's stubborn about being as self-sufficient as possible, which does include hunting and fishing. Going by some of the earlier sections, he does spend time around Cecil and Rosa, although outside of sparring with Cecil that's been getting increasingly Third-Wheel, and a good amount of time with his men off-duty; dealing with things like training and command alone takes up a good amount of time.
(Ryslig) Given that his work has a kind of intermittent schedule - usually periods when she's got free time to go out or some public events - he's taken to still going out in the woods or by the lake occasionally, fishing and hunting to get away from the city some; he's been donating the meat he doesn't take for himself.
7. What are his eating habits? Does he skip meals, eat out, drink alcohol, avoid certain foods? He keeps an active military lifestyle, and is a bit of a black hole most of the time because of it; when there isn't something more directly needed he'll bring in game. "Eating out" isn't really the same sort of concept, and for him would usually mean one of his wilderness trips, either camping or staying in some village's inn. Around the castle there are cooks, and he probably isn't to be trusted with anything more involved than camp-cooking. He does drink, but it's mostly something like habitual with-meal or social, and not very heavily; even before getting controlled he wasn't real great at compromising self-control, especially with the high likelihood of some teenage noodle incidents. (Considering some of his life choices sober and some of what's in his head that he has the restraint to sit on sober...)
(Ryslig) He's still adjusting to the local food; he does eat some of what he gets from hunting/fishing. Also about every other week he's been going into the bad parts of Bavan and picking off one of the gang members; part of him wanting a place he can set up a smokehouse is actually preserving what he doesn't eat of his own kills, both for times he can't go out hunting and to toss at others who're having trouble keeping control.
What processed food there is around Bavan is something he's still debating what he thinks of, leaning towards "not fond of".
