Character Development Outline
TAGGED BY: @seamagician or at least I think you did? Activity told me so but I didn’t see this blog listed but OH WELL it looks like fun.
Name: Tetsuzora
Nickname: Tetsu
Reason for name: Her name means Iron Sky.
Birthday: Dunno. Haven’t picked a birthdate for her yet but I think she fits Virgo best so it’d be somewhere around Aug 23-Sept 22.
Age: Don’t have an exact age but she’s bordering 3k.
Gender: Female I guess. Tetsu wouldn’t really care though.
Place of birth: A human kingdom in the Sea World. I should come up with a name.
Places lived since: Waaaay too many places. As I said, 3k and she’s traveled a lot. The most significant ones, however, would be her former kingdom, Tosatsu kingdom, the witch world and then her own little ‘space’.
Parents’ names, backgrounds, and occupations
Parents: Tierra (Father, Earth Sorcerer), Cielo (Mother, Sky Witch). Former rulers.
Number of siblings: None with left beef.
Relationship with family: When she was still human, and they were still alive they pretty much doted on her. Terrible, god awful people, but they did genuinely love their daughter. Unfortunately they were incredibly oversheltering--and to be fair with somewhat understandable reasons. They knew their tyrannical ways were wrong but they didn’t care, and only worried about how their enemies may harm Tetsu so she was pretty much never allowed beyond their castle walls.
Tetsu back then likewise loved them even if she was pretty irritated by the fact she could never leave.
Unfortunately she doesn’t really remember anything about them anymore. While she can no longer forget anything unless she deliberately erases it from her mind, everything before her change is incredibly fuzzy and missing pieces. She doesn’t really care to find out much though, that life is no longer hers and she’s okay with that.
Happiest memory: UUuuUUhmmm.....huh. It’s hard to pinpoint one exact memory that would qualify as her happiest. I guess when she realized how strongly she felt for Artamos, and that he held similar views to her about relationships? Tetsu is pretty strongly aro and even when it comes to friendships it is hard for her to feel anything beyond superficial camaraderie with others. Artamos was one of the first people she established a true and deep friendship with. They’re lovers, but just like her Artamos isn’t interested in settling down or becoming monogamous in any way.
Childhood trauma: The whole parents being murdered and her being experimented on and having her humanity taken away would probably qualify. Thooough. Since she’s human and this happened when she was in late teens I guess it doesn’t quite count as a childhood trauma, but considering how old most of the other creatures in Mogekoverse are that would definitely qualify as childhood.
Children of their own: KEEP CHILDREN AWAY FROM HER. ALL CHILDREN. EVERY CHILD. OUT OUT OUT.
Relationship?: Single and it’s staying that way.
Height: 5′2 /160 cm
Weight: A LOT. She’s a machine.
Build: Literal box shape. Straight up and down, no curves of any kind, pretty much cylinder limbs. Those weird pod boots she seems to have? Not actually pod boots, those are her actual feet.
Disabilities: This question would kinda deserve it’s own post.
Complexion: All artificial.
Face shape: Round. Her face is pretty much the only thing that really remains of her former body so it may seem out of place with the rest of her body to the one with keen eyes.
Distinguishing facial features: She’s missing an eye! Which she usually keeps behind a patch. She could replace but but she thinks it looks cool, the fucking loser.
Hair color: Lavender.
Eye color: Also lavender.
Glasses/contacts: None.
Style of dress: Lazy. When she’s not wearing her witch attire as shown in her profile, she’s literally usually just in sweatpants and a hoodie or some weeb ass shirt. She’s a very modern day witch who has no time for fashion.
Unless we’re talking about getting Kaen cute or cool things, then she’s all about fashion.
Health: Not really applicable. She repairs herself most of the time unless something serious happens which she can’t do herself. Then she goes to Merrol.
Grooming: Also not really applicable. She keeps herself clean but she doesn’t really need to do much in order to maintain her appearance since it is unchanging.
Jewelry, tattoos, piercings: None.
Accent: None.
Physical habits: Again, nothing really. Habits are hard things to form without any some of chemical process going on.
Level of education: Through the roof. Knowledge would be Tetsuzora’s addiction, so to speak. She had scholars from all over the world, and off the world when she was young and once altered she became a literal computer unable to ever forget anything. Her desire to learn more is what drives her the most and given that she has had near three thousand years of reading, exploring, and learning well. Girl knows a shitton of stuff.
Talents: She’s a very powerful witch, ranking up there with Chlomaki, and of course if it’s in anyway related to technology she’s got you covered. Outside of that she’s an excellent gamer and actually pretty good at giving sound advice? Even if it won’t be the nicest, she’ll tell people what they need to hear, not what they want to.
Shortcomings: Way too blunt, has a cruel streak, can’t stand children and will honestly just straight up avoid them. I’d say she’s still a rather unsavory person since she’s not really apologetic about the things she has done and mostly withholds because she can’t be bothered most of the time, and she doesn’t want to upset Kaen. So she’s really not trying to change because it’s the right thing to do.
Style of speech: BUH. Real talk the hardest thing for me is to write is distinctive dialogue. While what they say is different I know that a lot of my characters unfortunately tend to speak the same way so this is really, really hard. She’s....not formal at all, even when she should be? Damn man, I don’t know.
Artistic/mathematical: Mathematical all the way.
Makes decisions on emotion or logic: Logic all the way.
Life philosophy: ---
Religious stance: Well in her canon the Gods and Devils literally walk among mortals so. Their existence can’t really be denied. Whether she dedicates herself to any, however, she definitely does not. The closest thing she has to any sort of respect or fealty would be towards the Daimajo.
Cautious/daring: Daring, most definitely.
Extrovert/introvert: Extrovert.
Level of comfort with technology: LAUGHING.
Relationship status: Single.
Sexual orientation: Pansexual aromantic
Past relationships: None.
Primary reason for being broken up with: She can be pretty damn uncaring to many. Downright cruel in fact. She’s not really one to apologize about important things and her moral compass is pretty skewed. She won’t commit or be monogamous.
Primary reason for breaking up with people: She doesn’t really get into official relationships to begin with but. Well if people get too clingy, are overemotional on her and try to stifle her in any way they are out.
Level of sexual experience: A.....lot........Tetsu has uh. Lived a long time and been around the block. Many, many times. She’s definitely a hypersexual person but given the obvious she has never experienced straight up sexual pleasure--don’t get me wrong she definitely gets a lot of enjoyment out of sex but it’s more of an emotional thrill than a physical one on her end.
Story of first kiss: Hum, hum. Don’t really have any specifics for this. Maybe one of her tutors?
Story of loss of virginity: It happened at some point idk.
Most comfortable around who: Artamos and Kaen.
Oldest friend: Hmmm. She’s been friends with Tokinome the longest but she’s closer to other people.
How do they think others perceive them: Either as someone to be hated, respected, or weirded out by.
How do others actually perceive them: Either as someone to be hated, respected, or weirded out by.....Tetsu is good at reading a room.
Profession: Leader | Creator | Game Master | Spectator
Past / current occupation(s): Former princess, former protector of Tosatsu Kingdom, current mentor to Kaen.
Passions: Kaen, she’s a mega geek so all things pop culture, anime, video games, robots, robutts, tech.
Attitude towards current job: She’s very, very happy with it.
Salary: She doesn’t receive pay for being Kaen’s mentor, and I imagine that her salary when she was Tosatsu Kingdom’s witch was by being provided with a home and all her necessities. Probably more.
Life Goals: Amass more and more and more and more AND THE MOST KNOWLEDGE. Also see Kaen become a full fledged witch.
Dreams: She dreams of electric sheep. Nah she doesn’t dream at all.
Most ashamed of: As if she has shame.
Compulsions: Teasing people, especially Kaen.
Obsessions: Teasing people, especially Kaen.
Secret hobbies: Nah she doesn’t have a lot of secret anything. Tetsuzora is pretty much upfront about most things if asked? Unless it would compromise her. Like obviously she’s not going to talk about the magic that keeps her together or what exactly her body is comprised of.
Secret skills: Nothing I’ve considered at the moment.
Crimes committed: .....a lot.......murder, thievery, enslavement, politically corrupt actions, torture, experimentation....yea she has a colorful history
What they most want to change about their current life: She’s pretty happy with her lot in life right now. I suppose she wouldn’t mind being organic again or having some sort of confirmation as to whether she has a soul or not but. Eh. She’st past the stage where she obsesses over knowing that or angsting about the possibility that she might not.
What do they most want to change about their physical appearance:. She wants boobs dammit.
Daily routine: Turn back on, make sure Kaen and all the bots are okay, see if anything of note is happening in the witch world or any of the ones she frequents, works on her project at that time, teaches Kaen, does some traveling with her, and then just goes with the flow. Might include gaming, moving watching, traveling, who knows. She’s very much one moved by whatever instinct decides to take voer.
Night owl or early bird: Both. Who needs sleep.
Light or heavy sleeper: N/A
Favorite food: She doesn’t eat. Can’t taste so she doesn’t have one.
Least favorite food: See above.
Least favorite movie: Honestly all your generic romance movies.
Favorite music: Chiptunes.
Least favorite music: I don’t really see her having one specific genre she dislikes.
Coffee or tea: Neither. She CAN drink if she wants to, it won’t damage her but why bother? Unless it’s to have drinking competitions without telling anyone she can’t get drunk :’D
Crunchy or smooth peanut butter: Neither
Lefty or righty: Ambidextreous
Favorite color: Red.
Cusser: Sometimes? She doesn’t avoid it.
Smoker/drinker/drug user: No. / Only for pranking purposes, as mentioned above. / No.
Biggest regret: None. She has a lot she SHOULD be regretful over but she’s just fuck it. I’m not going to waste time bemoaning what is done.
TAGGING: Anyone who wishes!
