IC INFO
_CHARACTER'S NAME: Ryoji Mochizuki
_CANON: Persona 3 (fem!PC route)
_CANON POINT: After he vanishes on January 1st, before the Fall.
_CHARACTER'S (ACTUAL) AGE: Who the fuck knows. Because he's Death incarnate, basically, there is a possibility that he is technically as old as time? For most purposes, he acts/thinks like a 17 year old, except when met with greater questions about the universe and such.
_CHARACTER'S (APPARENT) AGE: 17
_CHARACTER'S HAIR COLOR: Black
_TANAGURA (elite) OR MIDAS (mongrel)?: Tanagura
_HOUSING PREFERENCE: Wherever in Eos I guess?
_REAPP: N/A
_HISTORY: Wiki link!
_ABILITIES:
Ryoji has the ability to turn into the shadow Death (looking very much like the persona Thanatos), which serves as a beacon to Nyx and eventually turns into her Avatar. As the shadow, Ryoji has never used his powers, so really anything for that would be speculation (I usually say he's got the same spell list as the Thanatos Persona). However, Shadows in general are made up from the negative emotions of humans- Ryoji especially so, since he was made specifically from the desire to end the world. Most Shadows can only really recognize when something is stronger then them, otherwise attacking anyone that is not Transmogrified (basically, hiding in a coffin) during the Dark Hour. Because of Ryoji's human element, he has much higher processing than this and can keep his reasoning and emotion intact, even in the form of the Shadow.
As Nyx's avatar, he has the power of Death, plus the twelve other arcana SEES defeated that complete him (plus the Fool arcana, not sure how he got that but whatever). He also has fourteen different forms. How this works is that he starts off with the powers related to the Fool arcana; once his HP is gone from that, he uses 'Arcana Shift' to change to the next one (the Magician). This keeps going, all the levels having relatively low HP before he hits his true arcana, the Death arcana. At that level, he knows all the highest level element spells, in addition to being able to cast 'Moonless Gown,' preventing any damage from being dealt to him. The later only happens on the ‘promised day,’ while it seems he can turn into the Shadow form at will. He also is incapable of being killed by anyone who is not the PC.
_PERSONALITY:
On the surface, Ryoji is energetic, outgoing, and flirtatious (bordering on perverted, especially in that one part of the school trip...), quickly proving to be a favorite among the girls at his school thanks to his looks and charm. He’s very friendly and polite, and generally takes rejection well, since his flirting is hardly ever truly serious (not that the girls he's flirting with always know that). It's very much second-nature to him, and he doesn't seem to be entirely aware when he's doing it; even as he's heading out with the PC he calls some of the girls falling them 'cute,' and another time he hits on Mitsuru, and then Yukari as soon as Mitsuru left. The fact that he didn't know why that earned him a slap sort of speaks to the fact that he really doesn't think anything beyond the moment in terms of those actions. He doesn’t seem to have a lot of ability to commit, unless he really cares about the person in question, and more likely than not he’ll feel like he’s not worthy of them anyway.
He ends up finding a good friend in Junpei early on, probably due to similarities in their personality. While Ryoji's more of a charmer than Junpei is, the two of them get along well in terms of energy level, not being fans of taking something seriously unless it's really important, and perverseness, as shown by the class trip in which they 'accidentally' stayed in the hot spring during the girl's time and spied on them. (Ryoji says that even though Mitsuru made sure they paid for it, it was totally worth it. And then apologized to the PC so she wouldn't hate him.)
In the female!PC social link, it reveals a very different side of Ryoji that’s much more caring and introspective. Initially, he flirts with her like every other girl, but soon admits that when he’s around her, he feels like he needs to be more honest with her about who he is. He winds up being very romantic towards her, still using some of his flirty pickup lines but much more sincerely. He's very gentle with her, and obviously cares for her very deeply, even if she chooses not to date him. Towards the end of the month, he starts have a bit of an existential crisis (brought about by the fact that he’s going to end the world, even though he doesn’t know it yet) and feels terrible about the fact that he feels like he’s going to make her sad, even though she’s so important to him.
Once he regains his memories, Ryoji also has to deal with a lot of guilt. Not only because of things he has done, like pretty much break Aigis when she confronts him, but also because of the possibility of ending the world or making his friends suffer. Honestly, the part about his friends seems to be of bigger conflict to him- he's very fatalistic and doesn't believe the Fall can be stopped, so he desperately wants them to be able to live their last few months as if they were normal high school students, without any real cares, even though that means forgetting him and everything that allowed them to grow during the game. In that vein, he's a tad bit selfish, wanting to give up things that were so important to them, even if it's for a more selfless reason. He considers it unfortunate that they make the decision not to kill him, but still respects their decision and tries to help them (even though he's sure it won't do any good).
He’s well aware of the fact that if he hadn’t been trapped in the PC for 10 years, he would have never have learned anything about being human, and he’s very grateful to her for that, even if it does make that what he considers to be inevitable harder for him to cope with. The conflict is a big element to his character, as Shadows are meant to not feel emotion and essentially drain it from others, but the part of him that's human from the PC is very emotional. This is a balance that he usually manages pretty well (generally in favor of the human side), but when it comes to more extreme emotions he's not always sure what to do about them.
_ITEMS: Ryoji will have his clothes (including his scarf, watch, and plastic ring), his cell phone, and a couple pictures from the Kyoto trip.
WRITING SAMPLES
_GEN SAMPLE:
TDM thread!
_SMUT SAMPLE:
In all honesty... Ryoji didn't know what he was doing with all this. He'd always been a flirt-veering-on-lady's-man, but when you tended to get shot down more often than not and only existed for about a month as a semi-normal human, that doesn't leave a lot of room for any actual application.
Before now, he's felt a flush in his cheeks, a fluttering in his stomach, the basics of infatuation and little more. But now, as the young woman he's pretty much only just met pushes him back against a while, that flush he's vaguely familiar with seems to spread over his entire body and burn far hotter than he could have ever imagined. The words that have always come freely can't seem to get enough air even before she closes her mouth over his own in a fierce kiss. Breathing in general has become a lot more difficult, and even though Ryoji's really not sure what he should be doing with his hands, he finds them moving almost with a mind of their own, pulling this girl closer to him and running over the bend of her curves. He isn't entirely sure why the curves are an appealing thing to touch, but it turns out that they are.
A soft whimper escapes his lips unbidden as she tugs his hair, the feeling like a jolt of lightning. Pain and Ryoji have a bit of an odd relationship, since it appears that actual fatal pain doesn't register but more innocent applications seem to get through just fine. Though maybe innocent is the wrong word to use for this, seeing as now her nails are running across his bare back (when did he take his shirt off?) and he's shuddering under it, his hands moving down to begin to peel off her skirt and pull her closer to him.
Even in the abstract, this isn't how he would have pictured his 'first time'. He certainly doesn't have it in him to be nearly as aggressive as this woman is, not that her enthusiasm is bad. (No, he's quite enjoying it, if the way he feels like he's blushing down to his knees and the growing sense of need and the uncomfortable hardening in his pants is any indication. Those are all pretty good indications.) But he thinks he might like to try something more gentle, too. ...After this, he mentally adds to that thought process as his pants are yanked down and their heated kiss muffles another cry as she rubs up against him. For now, what's happening is just perfect.
