    Player's Name: Heather
    Characters Played Here: Loki Odinson | [personal profile] morethanatrickster

    Character: Kadaj
    Series/Canon: Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children
    From When? Just prior to his death

    History: here!

    Why do you think your character would work in this setting? Even after materializing from the Lifestream only two weeks ago, Kadaj has proven highly adaptable and very much his own person, rather than just a fragment of someone who died two years ago. He has demonstrated a curiosity about the world around him and shown through on the few occasions he wasn't being forced along a path by a will outside himself. He has the capacity to learn and grow and become his own person, if he has the proper guidance.

    How do you plan to expand their CR? Playful and teasing by nature, he'll be inclined to speak to people when they post things to the TC, but he's also curious about all the goings on around him to investigate things he doesn't understand (which will be a lot).

    What will your character do for work? Considering his age, it may be best he...go to school and learn a thing or two.

    Does your character have special powers or abilities?

    Kadaj is a Remnant (and that's complicated in itself, which is why I gave the link)

    Expert Swordsman; His skill in one-on-one combat is such that he can defeat Cloud when he's weakened, and was able to defeat two turks alone.
    Shapeshifting; He can briefly impersonate deceased people
    Pain Suppression; He can take away the pain of others and return it if he chooses to.
    Mist dispersion; He can disperse into a black mist which allows him to move quickly around a battlefield as well as through doorways, vents, etc
    Summon Mist Monsters; Specifically, he can manifest and control groups of shadow creepers

    Inventory:

    Shuba; A double-bladed sword
    Lightning Materia; A level 1 (they level through use) materia that allows him to cast Lightning
    Fire Materia; A level 1 Matera that allows him to cast Fire

    Samples:

    Third-Person Sample: A TDM top-level

    First-Person Sample: A TDM from another game

    Series name: Final Fantasy VII Compilation
    Canon notes: After his death in Cloud's arms

    Species: Remnant; (with a link for reference)

    History: Here!

    Personality: Kadaj, as the first Remnant created by Sephiroth, is the embodiment of his hatred, rage, and madness. In interaction, Kadaj is the most changing of all his brothers. At times, he can be very lucid, driven, and organized, but this disposition can change in an instant to one of anguish and almost melancholy. Being the first, he is closest to Sephiroth, and expresses on more than one occasion a deep-seated anguish at the knowledge they are merely tools to bring about Sephiroth's return. He states himself, however, he does not know Sephiroth, but only knows that he is Mother's favorite, not Kadaj or his brothers, and this frustrates him.

    Driven by Sephiroth's will, however, Kadaj is helpless to stop the biting need to find Mother to facilitate his "Reunion". His temperament is decidedly separate from Sephiroth's, though. He can be rash, almost flighty at times, and very childish. Once his mind is set on a goal, however, his will to see that goal carried out gives him an unswerving direction, an outlet for his unstable personality, and a purpose to fill his day.

    Kadaj was constructed using the memories of the form and face of a boy, presumably that of a teenager based on his appearance, and his personality reflects that adolescence. He can be impatient and demanding, sure of himself to a fault, and unwilling to accept that others, Rufus and Cloud specifically, might know more than he does, much like a teenager shrugs off the warnings and advice of those older simply because they believe they know better.

    Directed, he's capable of mob-mongering speeches bordering on zealotry, such as the speech he gives to the children taken from Edge infected with Geostigma. He promises them freedom from pain, convincing them the Planet was attacking them, punishing them for being Mother's Chosen, and he would make them whole. All they needed to do was watch him, and do as he did. When left to his own devices, though, Kadaj's madness can be chaotic. He enjoys displays of power, and watching the chaos he reaps, but it isn't a malicious joy, but rather the innocent pleasure one would observe in a child who'd constructed something, only to tear it down.

    His speech is just as chaotic as his nature, ranging from making business calls to playfully teasing others in conversation. His wording and mannerisms are very child-like in nature, though their content and objectives reflect the intentions of one much older.

    The Remnants aren't so much evil as they are completely unaware their actions have any such connotations, good or bad. They were created for a purpose, and while they all have their own personas, they have no real-world experience. It isn't that they are immoral so much as amoral. They have never experienced society, and thus have no sense of right or wrong.

    Abilities:
  • Expert Swordsman; His skill in one-on-one combat is such that he can defeat Cloud when he's weakened, and was able to defeat two turks alone.
  • Shapeshifting; He can briefly impersonate deceased people
  • Pain Suppression; He can take away the pain of others and return it if he chooses to.

    March 2016
    Linked to the Crystal; Kadaj spent a good amount of time at the Crystal of Fire after it decided to keep him around. There he met up with Lust, a fellow arrival with Kalki, Zelda who was very nice, and Vincent, a man from Gaia who Kadaj barely remembered and who had no memory of him in return. That seems to be a trend.
    Link; Kadaj met a strange elf at the Fire Crystal. He was nice, and he had no idea how to take that. He was pleasant to talk to.
    Santa; Kadaj found Santa trying to commune with the Fire Crystal and couldn't resist teasing him about it. A Remnant has to find his amusement somehow.

    Big Brother, only he doesn't know it. He says he remembers me, but I don't know if I believe him or not. He seems different now. Lighter. They shouldn't be allowed to forget. We were made so they'd remember. Can it be called forgetting, though?

    History: Kadaj, WTF is a Remnant?, Who was Sephiroth, and WTF is Mother

    Personality: Kadaj, as the first Remnant created by Sephiroth, is the embodiment of his hatred, rage, and madness. In interaction, Kadaj is the most changing of all his brothers. At times, he can be very lucid, driven, and organized, but this disposition can change in an instant to one of anguish and almost melancholy.

    Driven by Sephiroth's will, however, Kadaj is helpless to stop the biting need to find Mother to facilitate his "Reunion". His temperament is decidedly separate from Sephiroth's, though. He can be rash, almost flighty at times, and very childish. Once his mind is set on a goal, however, his will to see that goal carried out gives him an unswerving direction, an outlet for his unstable personality, and a purpose to fill his day.

They were created for a purpose, and while they all have their own personas, they have no real-world experience. It isn't that they are immoral so much as amoral. They have never experienced society, and thus have no sense of right or wrong.

    Third-Person Sample: The falling, being so close to Mother he could feel her there, so close to being complete, so close to being finished, then the air filled in, too close, to much of it, or too little of it, and he landed, skidding along the rough pavement to a halt, the metal box skidding from his fingers to come to a clattering halt somewhere to his right. Then it was quiet. All
    around, it was quiet.

    Quiet and wrong. The tingling closeness of his brothers, of Big Brother, and of him, of Sephiroth were gone, and he was...was what? Alone? He knew the meaning of the word, but had never felt its quaking, earth-shattering presence. They had never been alone, and if they were to go, they were to go together. The shock of this sudden, inescapable, truth, threatened to choke him, to drain the last of his waning will from his constructed body.

    Until he remembered. Mother! He frantically ran back over his less than graceful decent, retracing the grating sound of metal on pavement, and turned, the shining surface of the container the President had so shamefully stored Mother in shining in the cold light cast by a street light. He scrambled to be at her side, mindless of the truth, at least at first.

    He took hold of the frigid metallic container, pressing it to his chest as a lost child clutching a found stuffed animal, not noticing his own gentle rocking, or the sobs that accompanied his motion. "Mother," He muttered, repeating the title like a mantra. They'd done so much, sacrificed so much, and they'd finally found her, and...and mother wasn't there!

    All the anguish, all the sadness, all the rage at being nothing but a puppet, being nothing but a tool to bring Mother back her Favorite, and he'd failed. He'd failed at the one thing he'd been created to do. All his roiling emotion welled within him, and he could no longer contain them. They burst forth in a torrent of anger, despair, and shame, a bitter cry, "Mother!"

    And Kadaj curled in upon himself, curled around the vessel containing nothing but dead cells. And wept.

    Mognet Sample:
    [The script is clearly left-handed and scrawled hastily, as though the author is most likely either rushed or simply impatient, and some of the words are darker than others, and though the writing implement was pressed harder there.]

    To All Former Residents of Gaia:

    I've heard there are several of you here. I know of at least one of you is here. You know who you are. We're going to be working together now, because we all have something that binds us together. We should meet.

    Come to the Thirteenth District Graveyard in Aqures Ixen. I'll be waiting.

    [And the last is scrawled larger, as though the author is making a point to get his name across to those who might recognize it.]
