VERSE INFORMATION; TO THE FUTURE
@automatonn and I built this up in private, and they have expressed interest in using it here as well. So, with that note, some personal headcanons and ‘verse building from the both of us. We have gone through all of the Despairs and built headcanons for them, but as these are RP blogs we will only cover our own muses.
Anyone who wishes to work off of this is more than welcome, if it catched your fancy.
Future Foundation and Folly
After the resurrection of the Despairs at the hands of Hinata Hajime, their services were offered as a way to atone for the destruction they had wrought. One Naegi Makoto had taken them up on this offer, and so under codenames and strict oversight by Handlers the former Despairs became assets.
Known by the codename of ‘Attack Dog,’ Gundham is called in for missions that require stealth and espionage.
His sway over animals has allowed him to turn entire packs of dogs against their owners; what was once a tool of Despair is now a way of subduing and limiting casualties.
His job is both to scout and, when possible, subdue.
When a route is secured, Gundham is able to go in alone to help corral and capture those lost to despair that the NWP might try to heal them.
The Devas are invaluable assets, though he is careful with his use of them - as well as all his other animal companions.
Gundham is called out often, and thus spends a lot of time off Jabberwock.
If Hajime ordered him to stand his ground and fight until he died, he absolutely would. His loyalty to Hinata Hajime is absolute, as is his trust in the man.
‘Attack Dog’ was originally a mocking nickname by his Handlers, as he would come to Hajime’s beck and call.
Known by the codename of ‘Automaton,’ Kazuichi is called in only for a last resort - scorched earth missions. A city is overrun with Monokuma bots? Call in the Automaton.
He is not a master of subterfuge or stealth; his signature arrival comes with a blast, and anything in his path is torn asunder. This includes all wireless communications that do not have specialized satellite uplinks.
Because of this Kazuichi spends a lot of his time on Jabberwock, tinkering with things.
He has built a lot of medical equipment for the Future Foundation, making things compact and easy to carry with Mikan’s help.
Near anything he creates will have a hidden gun in it.
Kazuichi has built a special all-terrain vehicle, known colloquially as The BLA.... The Barely Legal Automobile. She will have her own post in the future.
No one wants to be his Handler.
