1-10, 13 and 22 for Arden :0?
*cracks knuckles*
1. what is their secret identity? do they have any nicknames? what is the meaning behind them? - they’re really not much of a nickname person, and also the name arden doesn’t really lend itself to being nicknamed, but i do firmly believe that ortega called them “babe” once 7 years ago and they haven’t stopped thinking about it since
2. what is their sexual/romantic orientation and gender? - bisexual and nonbinary!! he mostly uses he/they pronouns but they don’t really consider any pronouns Incorrect when referring to them
3. what is their villain name? how did they choose it? - bedlam!! honestly i found it bc i was looking for virtue names for dnd tieflings dfkjfdk but the definition of the word is “a scene of uproar and confusion” and i think that’s the most accurate way arden knows how to describe what he’s been feeling after the heartbreak, and what they want to incite in others when carrying out their plan
4. what does their villain armor look like? what is their typical style of dress? - ok listen i’m gay i don’t know what armor looks like but they did choose the mysterious design for their armor in-game jfddfj as for typical style of dress i imagine at all times theyre wearing like a long-sleeved bodystocking and leggings and then just throwing oversized t-shirts and sweatshirts and mom jeans or skirts over
5. what is their zodiac sign? - obviously they don’t know their birthday but like their personality most closely aligns with like a stereotypical pisces. no one knows why they decided to be a villain they are soft and not cut out for this life
6. what is their mbti type? - back when they were still sidestep and playing the hero game i would say infj. now, post-heartbreak incident, they’re more istj, but i would still say infj is like. their True Self
7. what is their dnd alignment? - this is gonna sound weird for a villain but chaotic good fjkddfjk like theyre really trying to do good, at least as far as they see it, but they’ll do so by pretty much any means, since they no longer believe lawfulness to be an effective way to make change
8. are they more calculating or more sincere in their interactions with others? - sincere!! like honestly he doesnt Wanna Be Doing This fkjdfdjk it’s just the only way he can really think of to get the results he’s after. he’ll take any chance to not play the villain that he can get, even if he likes to pretend that’s not true
9. how honest are they? - as honest as possible, most of the time. they crave normalcy and comfort, and when nostalgia is involved (i.e. talking to ortega, steel, etc.) they can’t really help themselves
10. are they a leader or a follower? - they want to be a leader but they’re a follower
13. do they want to be well-known, or do they prefer to remain obscure? - they wanna remain as obscure as they can while still accomplishing their goals
22. how do they feel about their telepathy? is it a gift? a curse? - i don’t actually think it’s something they think about that much, kind of in the way that you don’t think about the fact that you have legs until you twist your ankle and cant stand on it properly. like it’s frustrating and disorienting when it’s gone but when it’s there it’s just like any other part of their body
