Player Name: Mars Character Name: Richard Plantagenet; Richard Plante Original Canon: Baraou no Souretsu AU Role: Infiltrator AU Species: Human Arcana: Devil
AU History Blurb: Born intersex but raised male, Richard has two older brothers, a father who loves him, and a mother who despises him. Their family used to be wealthy and held a lot of power, but have lost all of that; Richard's father leaves on a business venture to gain some of their former glory back, but dies in a tragic accident. His older brother elopes with an older woman and his other brother leaves for college, only to be later kicked out for alcohol-related incidents. With just himself and his mother left at home, she tries to make money by selling Richard to some sketchy men, using his unique physiology as a selling point. He manages to escape before they do anything to him, and runs away into the countryside. He meets a kind shepard who takes him in for a time, but he chooses not to stay and tries returning home. There, he learns that his father's death may not have been an accident like they had been told, but deliberately done. He leaves to seek out the answer to his father's death and find the one responsible.
Tentative Plans for character: Richard has a complicated sense of self, not least warped by the disparate feelings he received from his parents. I would like him, while he's on his own, to get a chance to grow past his insecurities and open himself up to other viewpoints, to help him construct a more complete picture of himself.
Pre-Established CR: Fellow classmates, perhaps? Others who may be staying at the safe house would be fine; I figure Richard is originally from England and came to LA via Mementos, so he'd probably need to stay at the safe house, at least at first, b/c he has no money. He's still a teenager, so he'd be going to the high school.
Desired CR: Positive CR would be great, Richard could really use some, especially people he could eventually open up to and trust with his secret. He just in general needs more positive people in his life, the only one he had is dead, so... I would love to find him a better mother/big sister figure too, someone who can help him have good female role models and not, y'know, his own mother...

Pretty solidly going with Akechi this round, but this popped into my head last night and has been knocking around ever since, so I figured, why not?
