First Impressions
Appearance
Messy light blond hair, big ol' blue eyes, an expressive face that's usually either wildly confused or smiling brightly -- that's Ventus in a nutshell. The kid is short, around 5' 2", and incredibly scrawny, but in that wiry kind of way that betrays the fact that he's a little scrapper.Fashion
Bad. It's just... bad. As far as casual goes, Ven really likes contrast and two-toned clothing. He prefers baggy shorts and shirts worn over any kind of spandex-like undershirt, usually one that comes up and covers his neck. Call it a comfort thing. But overall, his fashion sense is just.... bad....He just likes wearing things that look Neat.
Demeanor & Attitude
Smiles and sunshine! No, really, Ven is one of the nicest and bubbliest characters in Kingdom Hearts. At least on the surface. The kid is optimistic and a little childish, with a zeal and love for life that just can't be faked. But as with most eternal sunshine types, there is a serious side to Ven. Only his serious side doesn't just buckle down and get to business. Oh, no. His serious side is the kind that stands in the middle of a war zone and demands his friends kill him, rather than risk the end of the world as they know it.See, Ven loves life! But there's quite literally a shadow on his heart. He's seen and lived through some horrible, trying times, and has watched people suffer greatly. So while he may seem a little dumb blond and full of sunshine, Ventus can and will make some hard decisions, and will call for his own end before anyone else in the room.
Voice
Magic & Telepathy
If it comes down to it, Ven is... an interesting read for any kind of mystical probing. First of all, for magic users giving him a once over, this kid is just... bright white. Like someone reached in and pulled out everything that would have given Ven even an ounce of darkness. For all intents and purposes, magic reads that weigh stereotypes of light vs dark should come back with Ven being a shining beacon of good.Telepathy, however, is an entirely different story. See, Ven's mind is... a mess. It's almost as if this kid's entire existence only started a few years ago, coming in spurts and mixed with a lot of pain that laces from the head right down to the very center of his being. However, with enough digging, there is something older in there. Much older. Buried down and fogged over, but slowly being uncovered. Flashes of a large clocktower, hundreds of kids with keyblades, big grey cats appearing out of thin air, a desolate wasteland with thousands of hearts floating up to the sky and intricate keys shoved into the ground.
Other than that, there's the general sense that something was taken from Ven. It's like he was broken in half and put together with superglue. There's hints of others in him, as well. Almost as if Ven isn't really fully Ven, despite all his thoughts belonging to him.
IC PERMISSIONS
Physical violence - despite technically being a Disney game, Kingdom Hearts is... wild... with kids dealing with violence. I mean, Ven was like eleven when he lived and fought in a giant goddamn war (though he doesn't fully remember that yet), and that's not even counting when he realized he needed to be killed to avoid being used to make the ultimate weapon. And then asked his basically siblings to put an end to him. All in all, if fought, Ven will fight back, and he is not afraid of dying or being hurt in any way. He'll fight back if he thinks he needs to.
Physical affection - Ven is a hugger, please hug this child. He'll back off and respect boundaries, however, so he expects others to as well, if it comes down to it!
CRAU-recognition - please talk to me about it first! I'm usually super chill with things like that, but if something big happened between your character and another Ven, just let me know about it first!
OOC PERMISSIONS
Backtagging - a savior! I'm always, always cool with this. Especially in today's climate. Shit be stressful, yo.
Threadhopping - definitely! Just be courteous and drop me a comment, too. The more CR the better, and I don't really mind getting notif flooded.
Fourthwalling - please, please ask me first! Kingdom Hearts is a pretty forgiving series for world and reality based shenanigans, but I do really appreciate a heads up.
Any off-limits topics - nawp, traumatize away. If something does come up, I'll let you know, but don't worry too much about it!
