IC INFO. CHARACTER: Akira Kurusu • 来栖 暁 ALIAS: Joker SERIES: Persona 5 AGE: 16 HEIGHT: 5'9 • 175cm WEIGHT: Unknown, average. VOICE: Xander Mobus; Jun Fukuyama (find a decent voice clip); I err on the side of his English voice but it's pretty negligible. NOTABLE FEATURES: Unkempt black hair, grey eyes. large, Thick-rimmed fashion glasses. Generally neutral disposition, though usually smirking in his Joker getup. Most expressive in his eyes, though will use the glare of his glasses to mask that at times. Lean build, seems scrawny but is actually quite fit. No notable scars or marks. BRIEF PERSONALITY: Generally seen as quiet, mild-mannered and polite. Can be polite to the point of condescenion with those that condescend to him first. Keeps a generally calm demeanor, but has a flair for rebellion, a distaste for society's bullshit, and is very capable of lashing out. To those he's comfortable with, his humor can be dry, sarcastic and shitposty. But he's also very warm and caring, the sort that can't stand to see the world's injustices and people suffering. He's meddlesome to the highest degree, even if it'll get him in trouble, and loyal to a fault to his friends, yet mistrustful towards authority figures and adults in general.. He does his best to live without regret—and has a penchant for dramatics, flair and being a bit reckless and showy when he's in Phantom Thief mode. ABILITIES: The power of Persona, aka "mental Pokemon summoning for grown-ups." Ability to enter the Metaverse, an alternate world based on human cognition and desires. Abilities of a Phantom Thief, which includes heists and theft (even if just of cognitive loot and a heart's distorted desires), stealth and acrobatics, demon negotiation, pretty solid aim with a gun, tactics. He can also conquer food challenges, fall off treadmills, make shitty anime references, befriend people from all walks of life—including pure politicians and former yakuza, etc. PERSONAS: Listed Here. IC PERMISSIONS. PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Generally okay with it, though he'll be clear in his own way if he's uncomfortable. SHIPPING: He's pretty open to stuff and won't be afraid to go for it if he has feelings for someone. SHIP PREFERENCES: I don't ship cross-canon with people I don't know, though most same-canon stuff is fair game. I prefer Akira/Yusuke, Akira/Takemi, Akira/Haru and Akira/Makoto, though most other ships I don't really mind playing. I'm a hard no on Akira/Akechi, Akira/Mishima and Akira/Iwai, though. I can probably be convinced on cross-Persona/cross-SMT ships too, with a bit of communication! Otherwise, I sure love ships and playing ships, so come at me with ideas. SEX: He's okay with it, but I prefer only to play out smut with people I know and am comfortable with. PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: I mean, he's from an RPG. Fighting is kind of his bread and butter, though I prefer to have a vague outline of these things before playing them out for fairness and power balancing. TELEPATHY: No thanks. OTHER NOTES: He will always try his best to shoulder burdens and try to take other people's away if they don't deserve it, but he's not anywhere near as subtle as he thinks he is, and it's okay to call him out on that. He's a little punk that way.
OOC INFO/PERMISSIONS.
PLAYER: Aly CONTACT: ailerons or PMs. AVAILABILITY: EST/GMT-5. I keep strange hours but usually do the majority of my tagging M-F in the mid-late afternoon and until around 10-11pm. Weekends are generally more sporadic.	BACKTAGGING: In games/psls, yes. Memes are a mixed-bag, depending on my tag load since I prioritize the former more. But I'll backtag for quite a while so long as there's communication! THREADJACKING: Generally okay. If it's my post/toplevel and not with me, just let me know so I can untrack accordingly! FOURTHWALLING: No. ACTION VS PROSE: Action preferred, I don't prose very often and don't really intend to. OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Talk to me first. I'm not offended by much, but harsher topics not explored by canon are things I'd like warning on so I can plan accordingly.
