What characters do you already play here, if any? Emizel 8D
How did you hear about the game? 83
[IC Information]
Character Name: Almaz von Almandine Adamant (we'll just... stick to Almaz though 8D)
Series: Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Species: Human (though half demon at one time)
Appearance:
Almaz is at about average human height and sort of lanky. He has dark grey (though sometimes can look navy) short hair, with a cowlick 'antenna' that always sticks out at the end, and blue eyes.
His clothes aren't exactly the most exciting. The main part of it is a white open coat, a black shirt under it, and matching white cloth pants. He does also wear gauntlets, presumably made from leather, that are a faded brown with a white trim (and two brown buckles on each). There's also two leather belts around his waist, crossed in an X fashion; as well as boots with the same color as the gloves that go past his knees, however they seem more metallic than leather.
Most of Almaz's general appearance lacks color. That is, everything outside from his signature red scarf. But unlike other infamous red scarf NIS wielders, Almaz's is straight and untattered, and hangs both in the front and back (though it's much longer in the back, going about past his knees)
Personality:
Almaz loves heroes, heroism, and pretty much anything heroic. He's a personal fan of most of them and collects various merchandise with them on it, and follows all the 'Hero Oaths'. It basically had become a dream of Almaz to someday be a hero himself, except... one single problem: He was kinda a loser, and at one time would probably be afraid of his own shadow if he didn't know what it was.
Almaz would quite easily fit the title (Haha, titles.) of 'Reluctant' or 'Cowardly' hero. While he will certainly stand up to dangers to protect somebody, especially if said person is Sapphire, the other part of the time he'd much rather avoid the situation in the carefullest way possible. Generally this resulted in either having to talk his way out of things, or having to talk others out of it instead; usually it had to be the latter, given his particular predicament. Almaz is the kind that tries to be the voice of reason many of times although very few actually bother to listen to him, as if logic and sense actually works in a place as backwards as the Netherworld. Constantly ignored or talked over, eventually Almaz has no other choice but just to roll with things even if he doesn't really want to.
His life has also been a general pinnacle of bad luck too, although never in a horrifically serious way (or at least it's never played as such). Always at the right place at the wrong time, or something not quite going the way he hoped, still just enough unfortunate things happen to him on a daily basis that he kind of learns to just accept it... although a silver lining can and will happen every once in awhile. Still though, even if he's not self loathing, he does have several 'woe is me' moments.
In a non stressed environment though he's quite a good guy. He likes being helpful and feeling needed, but would feel kind of weird if it did get him more attention... But very friendly, really just wants everybody to get along and doesn't want to stir up trouble. He can sometimes be a dork, just an adorkable dork.
But over all TL;DR: Only Sane Butt Monkey. Kinda wussy, flails like a maniac... unless you mess with his princess and buddies or do something unjust, then oh god your shit is wrecked.
Also he's really easily distracted by shiny things, such as coins on the ground. Ah, yes.
Abilities:
Since Almaz is human his skills are kind of limited. He is quite talented with swords though and thus in turn, most of his abilities are based around that. His only really super noteworthy one though is Spinning Swordance in which rather using his regular sword he's capable of using three katanas at once. The rest, while do have some bit magic involved (mostly wind and thunder, in this case), are mostly just mixtures of dashes, uppercuts, and hitting opponents with projectiled slashes. He is capable of learning normal magic, but it's not his strong suit.
There's a nameless valkyrie character he can summon for help too. However it seems unlikely he will be capable of using this in game. (it's random, never explained why, and getting it there in the first place doesn't really make sense)
Actually statically he seems to work better defensively. All his passive 'Hero-style' abilities have a general theme of blocking attacks, or take less damage from it. Almaz is actually quite sturdy, even though he kind of doesn't look like it.
Items:
Just his swords, presumably. (RPG storage space, I will never understand you)
History:
Once upon a time Almaz had a crush on a princess, Sapphire Rhodonite. He liked this princess a lot, so much that he decided to be a guardsmen for her and she may have also been another thing that triggered his hero obsession. After all, it's always a hero job to save and protect princesses from harm. What sorts of harm you might ask? Demons of course, particularly Overlords. Almaz wasn't very fond of demons and worried about one possibly kidnapping Sapphire one day, especially when there was a Netherworld nearby, so it was finally one fateful day that he traveled to that Netherworld to slay its Overlord... even though he was pathetic. And hopeless. But hey, people do weird things for love.
When he arrived to the Netherworld (don't even bother asking how, seriously, just don't) he realized somewhat quick that most of the world was actually a school, meant to teach younger demons how to be evil. ... Actually no, he didn't really discover this that fast. See along the way to his epic quest to get stepped on by an Overlord he sort of bumped into two demons (sort of, being the keyword), who he thought were just ordinary kids. One of them is Mao, we'll... get back to him in a bit. The other was Rasberyl, who's actually a demon delinquent. Basically an opposite demon who wants to do good things instead of bad. It turns out Mao was actually in the progress of tracking down a hero to capture for his own personal reasons not long before Almaz showed up. Bad luck moment number one starts from there.
Anyway, Almaz finds those two arguing, totally unaware that said arguing was about getting Mao to stop his crazy hero hunt, when he steps in to try to rescue them both (again, thinking they were both normal kids being kept here against their will). instead.. he just makes a target out of himself. Mao kicks his ass, Beryl loses, and first half of the first chapter ends about with Almaz getting dragged off to who knows where.
When Almaz woke up he was just outside a Netherworld facility called the Heart Bank, a place where demons can literally store their deepest/darkest feelings or memories so it won't interfere with their duty to be... well, demons. Unfortunately Almaz doesn't have a clue why Mao brought him here, but the reason is made clear fairly soon enough. Or at least I would hope so, because Mao was now wearing his Hero title. As in, yes, literally the title from the status menu.This game doesn't understand what a fourth wall is, if you haven't noticed yet. But don't worry, Mao actually had this all planned out ahead. Can't have the guy go titleless forever, after all.
And so Almaz was forced to wear a demon title. And it's going to slowly make him into a demon. In 666 hours. Oh yeah, he's also been promoted to being Mao's bitch from now on.
But wait, all hope isn't lost yet. It turns out Mao only needed the title to defeat his dad, which, you guessed it, is none other but the Overlord; the same guy Almaz wanted to kill anyway. If the Overlord goes down, Almaz could get his title back, and nothing else, the princess will be safe.
Except, oh wait never mind, they both loose horribly. Welp! Time to go back and reevaluate.
And that's... kiiiinda where Almaz made his second mistake. While Mao was whining all over the place about how they lost, when everyone knows heroes are always supposed to beat the Overlord, he accidentally confessing that he's not actually a hero. This just.. pisses Mao off even more. But oh hey look, it seems Almaz might at least get is title back then.
Ex.. cept not. They go back to the Heart Bank to retrieve it, but for whatever the reason Mao's heart doesn't want to let the title go. Not even Mao really knows what's going on. The only sure way to get it out is if Mao can open his heart which, aha, ahahaha, sorry Almaz you're gonna be there for awhile.
So while Almaz is trying to help get that resolved before his time runs out, he.. wait, is that.. Sapphire was suddenly in the Netherworld too! Here to kick ass and take names apparently. What better way to avoid getting kidnapped and having others die for herHACKGAGCOUGHCOUGH than to come and beat up the demons herself. It's a pretty straightforward logic anyway. As for Almaz though this may make things a little more awkward. It's a little difficult to impress somebody when your a wimp, turning to a demon, and being dragged around everywhere by a demon boy. And she doesn't actually know you, or does she? Dun dun dun.
After fast forwarding through some more heart attempts they at some point find a version of Mao's dad while traveling inside his heart. Considering Mao's hate towards him, the best solution seems to be to get rid of it (or literally unplug it, in Almaz's case). This actually works. And miraculously, the lock on Mao's heart broke. All seemed prefect, Almaz got his title back, and he could go home. Except all wasn't fine. Mao, for whatever reason, had essentially BSOD'd and regressed.
Almaz and Sapphire were able to put Mao back together. However, this also meant putting the title back too. By this point it's obvious that Mao had gone through some sort of trauma in his life, and it has something to do with his father. But removing his father somehow makes everything worse. Hmm..
For now though the cause of Mao's trauma was a higher priority so he can find a way to help him. The title wasn't really that important anymore, he kind of didn't even deserve it. By this point Almaz was even okay with the idea of becoming a demon if he fails. He didn't really hate demons anymore either.
More things happen, although none of it is things that really effect Almaz personally. But eventually the group come towards a fairly simple trap laid out by our Big Bad. Said trap literally being a suspicious stuffed animal sitting out in the open. It grabbed Sapphire's attention and she wanted to go pick it up. Although because there was something really strange about it, Almaz stops her. But unfortunately, he triggers the trap instead. This was bad, very bad. Despite the damage being minimal, just a poke from a sort of needle, it would get much worse later. It was a curse, one that was going to kill him even before the transformation was complete.
Almaz tries not to draw too much attention to himself when he starts noticing there's something wrong with him. The last thing he wanted was to make Sapphire worry, who by that point had gotten quite attached to him. And not only that, but Mao had just gone berserk (all part of the Big Bad's plan), and now was threatening to destroy the Human World; Sapphire and Almaz's home. Eventually Almaz tries to smack sense into Mao through a touching speech, through sadly, he dies just at the end of it. Quite possibly it's one of the most dramatic scenes in the whole thing.
But luck actually does find its way for once! He doesn't stay dead for very long. The friendship speech had actually worked somehow and Mao's heart had opened. Almaz got this title back and this, somehow, revived him in Disney style.
From there the group returns back to Mao's home, defeat the Big Bad, Mao's trauma gets resolved, and everyone pretty much live happily ever after. Even Almaz, considering he just gets married to Sapphire... Until he finds out she wants to go back to the Netherworld for the honeymoon so they can visit all their demon friends again. (Which might as well be forever because the post game never actually ends... oops.)
First-Person Communicator Sample:
[When the feed clicks it appears to be pointing down at a blue eyed Prickmane. It seemed to have noticed right away that it was recording by the way its ears perked up. Although its person must be oblivious still, so it chirped.]
Huh? [The voice was still off screen but in a few seconds he moved it.] Oh!
Geez, I didn't think it was going to start right away.. [Nervously scratches the back of his head. He didn't even have an introduction planned out or anything!]
So umm.. this may sound stupid but, what is exactly going on? I'm not too sure how much I believe this whole 'dream' thing. I mean for one thing, I haven't been suddenly in my underwear yet. And second, I've never heard of a dream that you can get hurt in before.
Or is that normal? I don't think I even have a clue anymore...
Third-Person RP Sample:
"Just combine these together?" Almaz skeptically observed the glowing pieces in his hands.
"That's right, kupo! And you'll create your very own partner!"
Man, whatever he managed to hit his head on, or whatever kind of experiment Mao did this time, it was quite a doozy. You know it's bad when you're capable of imagining all this up...
---
Later that day Almaz roamed through the major districts to gain familiarity with everything. Which was.. kind of odd. He may not remember every dream he ever had, but even if he did, this one felt like it was fabricated a little too perfectly. Everything was mostly consistent from what he could tell; no random changing scenery, suddenly flying,suddenly loosing clothes, no it actually did feel like he was really here. Of course the fact he knew that he was dreaming and had free will should have made it obvious from the start... Maybe something was up. Almaz rubbed the back of his neck while he still tried to make sense out of this.
His other hand brushed against something that was tucked in a pocket, it was the pieces from earlier. Oh right, those uh.. not-Prinny things gave to him. Something about creating a partner? Those Dream Whatsits right? Almaz still wasn't so sure how he felt about having to take care of one of those, but having a buddy may not be such a bad idea.
Err... how did this work again? Oh yeah.
"O-Okay.." Almaz gathered the dream pieces close together. "This.. shouldn't be that hard."
First he checked behind himself as though to make sure he wasn't actually doing something obscene, heck if he knew what counted as indecency around here; last thing he needed was have locals ticked off at him. But no, nobody was around, he was good to go. Here goes with pushing the pieces closer together.
And as though the pieces were made of jelly, they magically fused as one; turning to a bright light.
"-Whoa!" Almaz dropped it by accident. At least it didn't fall far, in fact it didn't hit the ground at all. After it gained a few more colored lights to join with it faded, and something new took its place... What is that? A purple pine cone?
"... U-um," the Spirit hadn't completely stirred yet, it was trying to get its bearing still. "... Hello?"
Oh! Now it recognized somebody. Its ears twitched and it did a little hop around to face him.
"I-um.. hi," no, he was not good at this. Not that the Spirit seemed like it mind, all it did was squeak and jumped into Almaz's arms, where it contently nuzzled.
"-Oh, well, at least you're affectio--NATE," that was the sound of despair, that was the sound of getting abruptly jabbed by fifty spikes out of love.
The Pricklemane wagged its tail happily. ♥
