Character Name: Please note which ordering they use, whether English or Japanese/Chinese.
Character Series: The series your character was from. Please note if it was manga, anime, book, whatever.
Brief History: Feel free to just post a link to elsewhere. We don't need an essay if you don't want to type one, just an idea of your character's past. If you are importing CR/history from another game, however, we do require at least a brief type-up by you here on that CR and history.
Brief Personality: The same as above, we just need an idea of your character's self and motivations. This one must be written by you, though you can feel free to link to other posts in your journal.
Powers & Abilities: A full list of your characters abilities and powers. Keep in mind those of supernatural strength or origin will be taken away, though they can be regained later.
Alignment: Which Ancient they serve. Keep in mind that only 1 in 5 can be with Mantorok and must have been able to spot the symbol through Manny's trick somehow, so make sure that there's a Mantorok-aligned spot and that your character has some way to pick the "hidden fourth option" during Manny's presentation. If you aren't sure if your character could, feel free to contact a mod to ask. Note that, as Manny himself is a mod/plot character, he doesn't count against the "1 in 5" rule.
Selphie Tilmitt - Final Fantasy VIII -
Player Age: 26
Player Contact: Here, or also AIM: dystopiadreams
Character Name: Selphie Tilmitt
Character Series: Final Fantasy VIII
Brief History: Selphie's in-game history can be found here:
http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Selphie_Tilmitt
Importing Selphie from Vatheon. Vatheon history here:
Vatheon has proved an interesting time for Selphie. For a girl with abandonment issues, and with a fear of being alone, the very fact that she was flung into a universe where she knew no one was unsettling for her. However, Selphie's always one to try and make the most of things so, while she missed her home friends deeply, she set out to make as many friends as possible in Vatheon. And that, she did.
But Vatheon isn't always a peaceful place, and during her time there Selphie saw many battles, and even her own death. In Vatheon, the people there can come back from death, but with this came the knowledge that she had failed to avenge her friends. For quite some time, Selphie felt guilty, and a failure. Those are two emotions that were new to Selphie, and she struggled to get through them, only managing it with the support of her friends. Selphie's cause of death was, essentially, drowning, and her attitude towards being in the water hasn't been the same since.
Throughout her nearly three years (the point at which I'm taking her from) in Vatheon, Selphie made many friends, but she also witnessed many of them leaving. She matured as a young woman, developing strong emotional connections, only to have them completely broken. Even if people coming and going was the norm at Vatheon, that never made Selphie feel any better when a good friend left.
In her time at Vatheon Selphie organised many parties for the town, parties for her friends. She fought battles against pirates and giant sea creatures, tried to fight a murderous monster and got killed herself, and began to fall in love. A lot to happen in a short space of time.
Brief Personality: Selphie is a bubbly, sweet, happy go lucky young woman. She's ever optimistic, always ready to cheer up those around her. However, for as much as Selphie is excitable and happy, she can be equally as stubborn. Selphie has a hard head, and a whole load of determination. This can be great, especially on a mission with the other SeeDs, but it can also be a nuisance or maybe even annoying to some people. But Selphie always means well, and always puts the needs of others before her own. She's a hyperactive ball of energy to be around.
That said, sometimes the happy exterior can be hiding something deeper. Selphie might be a hard girl to upset, but that doesn't mean that there's so much more going on with her personality. Even if she is upset, she's not likely to show it. If she does show her true feelings to someone, that'd signify a significance of relationship. Mostly, Selphie is prone to loneliness. An orphan, Selphie is used to being moved around from one place to the other, and she's learned to be quick about making friends. All the same, the concept of not knowing anyone frightens her, and the idea of being abandoned by her friends horrifies her. Selphie survives by her relationships with others.
Due to the side effects of being equipped with a GF when she was too young, Selphie lost her memories. They were built upon when meeting Irvine, and throughout the four discs of the game. However, her memory can still be a little fuzzy. However, when it is, it frightens her. Selphie hates the idea that she might forget things and, even worse and tied with loneliness, she fears that people might even forget her.
Selphie's a fighter too. As a kid, she liked to play war, and had an unhealthy obsession with fireworks and fires. That persisted throughout her childhood, and exists still in her late teenage years. Fighting is her job, but it's also her reaction to the bad things in her life. Because she doesn't like to show upset, she'll tend to react to fear and sadness with violence, or hard bursts of energy.
Powers & Abilities:
Selphie's a SeeD, and skilled with nunchaku, Guardian Forces, and magic. She has the ability to draw magic from opponents. Also, when particularly frustrated, she tends to use magic unawares, almost by accident, as a reaction to how she's feeling. Selphie has the ability to use all kinds of elemental magic. Selphie can also play guitar, and she's a really good singer!
