[ enrollment ] Creedence Kramer - Death Hunter

[lizbot]

DEUS EX MACHINA PERSONNEL FORM

The Hunter
Name: Creedence Kramer
Nicknames: bunches of them, but it's not like she's handing them out
Gender: Female
Age: 17

Category: The categories of Hunter are:

Death - The "intelligence" operation, in charge of gathering information and maintaining the network of Hunters. They gather the information prior to a mission.

The Weapon

Name: Evanessa Vespera
Nicknames: Countess Bloodtide
Type of Weapon: Fantasy esque rogue/thief dagger. Should not be too fancy (it's a starter weapon ~ !) red leather or ribbon wrapping the hilt, possibly red beads hanging down?
Former species of weapon: Vampire
Gender: Female


Personalities:

Creedence
The middle sibling among 5 others, Creed preferred to be a bit overlooked and make shitty comments from the sideline rather than try and standout. Call it sass or sarcasm or snark or just a*****e tendancy, but that's her default mode. This is part personal armour and part genuine belief that to be truly cool you should s**t talk your peers and nice guys really do finish last. (They just don't know it yet.) It's hard for her to interact with people without it, to the point of near crippling discomfort when she tries to talk to people while actively trying not to be a shithead.

While she does value time and space to herself, Creed is used to being around people and will seek out/inflict herself on others to keep her company. Not outgoing, but not at all shy either, not a leader but not afraid to voice an opinion, she's middle of the pack and comfortable there.

Self-aware geek, she is vocal about what a loser her hobbies make her, but that doesn't actually stop Creed from playing MMOs, tabletop games, or LARPing, nor does it diminish her enjoyment. Creed is in it for the immersion, and for the sense of feeling important without actually having to bear the weight of responsibility. She wants to be strong without having to work out, she wants to be smart without having to study, she wants to help save the day without taking actual risk.

Evanessa
A pampered society ghoul of an extremely dramatic nature, she fled her ancestral home (and school) to get out of an unwanted arranged marriage. Without any marketable skills or willingness to do the sort of work involving unskilled labour, Evanessa was considering returning home after two weeks in the world when a strange reaper approached her about a much easier life, where she'd be taken care of an treated properly. It would be another marriage of sorts, but at least she had a choice.

Why did your human character choose to become a Hunter?
Seeing shadows move and the vague sense that other weird s**t was happening didn't have a great impact on Creedence after she reached middle school and was above hiding from bogeymen who were, let's be real, probably easily explained away through lighting changes and the way old houses make all sorts of sounds. But she'd just graduated and college was waiting and Creed didn't want to go. Like at all. When given the choice of joining some secret monster hunting society versus starting the path becoming a responsible adult, the former won out in a snap, slightly hysterical, entirely irresponsible decision. Chances were it was some sort of game show, right?


Weapon Ability
Bloodlust (Battle Cry) : Evanessa's more violent nature is briefly drawn out. The dagger glows an intense red that coats her wielder in a bloody light.


Physical Description:

In her official trainee clothes, she should have a long coat with a hood that obscures much of her head and shadows her eyes.

Eye Colour: Blue
Hair Colour/Style: Dark brown
Skin Colour: Fair with light freckling
Clothing Style/Colours: Ultra casual (jeans, metal band t-shirts, flannel) outside of uniform, kinda thief/rogue-esque in uniform. Either or a mix of the two is fine for official arts ~ !

2. Has she ever been presented with a scenario-- pre-deus-- where she needed to be a hero and failed/succeeded?

3. What part of the country is she from?

1. She gets along well enough, they aren't bff close but not estranged or avoided either. She spends the most time with her oldest sibling, Clapton and the next one down from her, Tull. Clapton's lived away from for years, but is a fairly avid gamer and talks to her over vent and Skype nightly. The distance and fact he's busy with his own life makes him also the sibling she's most likely to confide in. Tull she hangs out with most at home, they share interests even though a two year age gap means that outside of the house they often move in different circles. All of her siblings are a bit more competitive than her, which can make her both a little left out but also a coveted ally.

Creedence is the "easy one" despite the attitude. She's never required a lot of discipline or comfort. She likes her parents but lacks the closeness that friction and struggle can create. They're cool with each other.

2. Just the everyday sort as a teenager. There's a lot of bullying and usually she'd keep her head down, but sometimes she'd try to s**t talk someone bothering a friend if she felt she could get away with it. That sort of thing was always a lot easier online, under a game persona.

3. California, not sure where.

but does she wear plaid shirts tho

How will she react to the very real responsibilities of Deus? Will she imagine it as just another video game/escapist route or will she tackle the fact that she's very much there holding a weapon and fighting? Would it be hard for her to adjust to the effort and energy needed, or would she just treat it as another challenge?

How does she fit in with her division? Or rather, what skills does she have that would be a boon for her new job? Why does she wear a mask/Why does she want to obscure her identity? (Do they all tie in and am I just asking the same question four times fheksodifjsjsj)

How well do her and her weapon mesh personality-wise?

[lizbot]

yes some her fave hand me downs

It's going to be hard in ways she'll likely internalize a lot and gloss over with jokes and attitude. The obscured identity is definitely part of her way of dealing with the reality of it and responsibility (though also tied to how self conscious it makes her feel) by stepping into the role of a hunter rather than being one. It's escapism but there's no delusion, she knows its a coping mechanism that will likely be temporary. (How temporary I have no idea, could be weeks could be a year.)

Outside of sparring, working hard on her physical abilities and division skills is going to likely require either a really bad run-in with enemies or another hunter to push and pull her into it (she can put up a good show of dragging her heels, but is fairly easily led.)

As far as Death hunter works goes, she's got a good mind for working out how to get something done without drawing attention or creating a spectacle. She tends to have a very good idea of her own ability and measuring them against a task or fight, and despite the decision that brought her to Deus, she isn't reckless.

Personality wise, there's going to be some clash. They're used to different sorts of cliques and social classes, but I think there's potential for them to gain a really close relationship given some time.

kuuropii

thank you bless u

1. Will possible middle-child syndrome carry over to her Deus co-workers?
   
   She'll definitely try at first, whether that can last or not will likely partly depend on the co-workers. but staying under the radar is a comfortable place to be as far as she's concerned.
   
   
2. What's her favorite genre of game?
   
   High Fantasy, all the way! She'll play others but her sweet spot is swords and sorcery and stabbing at dragons.
   
   
3. Does she like doing anything other than gaming for fun?
   
   She faithfully keeps journals, updating them nearly every day with the events in game and out of game, the languages of the two mixed in such a way that nosy siblings can't be bothered to parse after a few attempts. Her secrets are probably boring anyway, right?
   
   Creedence is also fairly musical, her skills are mainly in drum and keyboard, and she wishes her skill with guitars was on the same level as her taste (which is Epic but reality ends up just disappointingly Adequate.)

ilu 4evr ty bless ur goat

What's her preferred genre of music?

Metal/Heavy Metal!!!

How well do you think she'll do in dangerous situations. Do you think she'll be a hero? Will she shut down from fear, or rise to the occasion?

I think both are possibilities, but if asked outright, she'd say no way is she going to be some big damn hero.
