CHARACTER DETAILS MEME



modified from here by [personal profile] semantics

Icons and written text don't always give a clear impression of a character. That's what this meme is for! Describe what your character is like in person. What is their body type? Do they have any distinctive markings? Do they have an accent or unique kind of voice? Any interesting type of body language?

Basically, share anything that you feel other characters would notice about yours if they ran into them in the street.

order of operations
i. fill out this textarea:


ii. Comment to this post! Also, feel free to fiddle with the colour of the comments subject headings. Colour code your character!
iii. Read the comments of others.
iv. Get clarifications! Talk about how this affects your cr! Compare cool scars and judge each other's fashion choices!

Dirk Strider

Height; The giraffe friend. I don't know how height works.
Weight; I know how weight works relative to height even less!
Visual; Lanky, muscled from stupid training hobbies. Orange eyes, ridiculous anime hair. Perpetual scalene triangle shades. He looks a little older than his age, which is partly his demeanour but partly his physicality. He has this awful tattoo that really does have jpeg artefacts on it. He loves that tattoo. It is of deep cultural and personal significance.

Fashion; Terrible Dirk tends to dress casual. He prefers his shirts with a hat on them. Sometimes, he wears terrible red-and-blue boots. Mostly it's slacks and a t-shirt or tank top. He likes fingerless gloves and especially uses them when he's working on something mechanical.

Demeanour; Imagine a teaspoon. Now put sunglasses on it. There, you have Dirk. He is not especially emotive, and his relaxed stance is one of perpetual battle-readiness. Neither his face nor his body tend to be particularly expressive of his mood. He simply doesn't telegraph much, not out of a conscious choice as much as for lack of being in the habit of it.

Sound; A low-in-the-throat voice. Most of the time, it's pretty quiet and doesn't vary much in terms of tone. His accent is mostly the General American of the television he grew up on, with slight, emulated Houston/Texan notes that come out in dropping a 'g' now and then.

Smell; The ocean, or sometimes robot grease. He showers a lot so generally he smells fresh and clean.

Etc; Dirk doesn't have psychic shields per se, but his mind is 'so dense' that even magical lollipops can't affect him. His aspect is the heart or soul, or the sense of self. That makes his self hard to alter or effect. As a God Tier Prince of Heart, Dirk is kicking around assorted semi-magical abilities: soul-sucking, the ability to fly, conditional immortality, etc. He should generally read as containing a fair bit of magical energy there.

On high frequency worlds, maybe he can sense your character's soul! Check that out here if you want to play with it.

Eva Armstrong

Height; 5'3" (160 cm)
Weight; 46kg
Visual; Even when he's 29 years old (or 427 years old to him), Eva's appearance is frozen in time. He's has a small build, but not exactly completely petite. A little bit fit since idol activities. Very pale skin tone with not really any visible markings such as scars or freckles. Even if my icons can differ, both of his eyes are naturally blue! The one yellow contact eye is for usual goth aesthetic.

Good thing there is a card that shows his build a bit.

Fashion; Goth. Elegant, classy goth.

Eva generally wears black/white or gray with little bits of other colors such as gold or red. His casual wear is a dress shirt with long sleeves and a black ribbon styled into a bow underneath a light jacket. Complete with black and white shorts, socks with garters, and dress shoes.

Demeanour; Eva always walks with elegance and grace, carrying himself well. He does keep eye contact, but embarrassing him usually makes that demeanour a 180 flip: Avoiding eye contact while avoiding people until he can collect himself again.

Sound; He speaks mighty like royalty, but with manners like a polite young man. Eva tries to keep a mature tone, but treat him like a child and he will get more defensive and bratty.

Smell; He usually smells clean with small hints of perfume. He doesn't think he smells like anything besides darkness. What does darkness smell like? Who knows.

Etc; I wish I got his looks when I turn 29 tbh.

Mikleo

Height; 5'5"
Weight; IDK normal for a dude his size? He is built pretty slender and correspondingly reasonably light though.
Visual; On a high-frequency world he is straight up invisible to humans (9S is working on tech to counter that but it's experimental right now!) On low-frequency worlds he can be seen just fine. He looks kind of unusual (weird hair coloration etc.) but not particularly alarming. He also has some minor scarring from combat etc. but his clothes conceal those. He can be seen in high- and low-frequency worlds when he uses the dragon transformation power Qri gave him; the dragon shape is fairly striking and about as big as Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon.

Fashion; He dresses mostly like this! For some reason that's his default outfit that he fights and explores dusty old ruins in. You do you, Mikleo. The circlet in the linked picture is not something he is wearing in Spellbind, though -- it was Qri's price for his magic.

Demeanour; Excellent posture. Likes to fold his arms or put his hands on his hips when standing around. Generally pretty well-balanced and coordinated!

Sound; He sounds pretty normal, a little more on the formal side but easily flustered. Have a voice clip.

Smell; He smells like clean water and ice; it's a very subtle smell and pleasant but it's also. Extremely weird if you're expecting him to smell human. He just doesn't.

Etc; i always feel obligated to link mikleo vs dogs:

Vern

Height; 5'6"
Weight; idk pretty light for an adult human
Visual; He's put on some weight since coming to Spellbind but is still skinny and lanky. His hair is ungodly long and he should probably get it cut instead of just continuing to stubbornly braid it. Wears glasses and squints a lot. Please don't steal them or he'll walk into walls (someone please steal them)

Fashion; USUALLY he wears a basic tunic/pants/shoes or boots ensemble; these are all in much better shape since he was able to go shopping in Aimintas. He prefers dull earth tones and goes for durability over fashion when he buys clothes, but occasionally Geir bullies him into wearing brighter more tailored shirts (red, rich blue, etc) and a little jewelry or a shiny hairtie.

Demeanour; Annoyed stork. He tends to move kind of fast and deliberately and when he's standing around people he's really drawn in on himself. Very tense most of the time.

Sound; His voice is fairly deep and while he doesn't sound 'educated' exactly, he's got a good vocabulary (though he actually has to think about complicated terminology for a minute when it's presented to him.) Mostly he grumbles.

Smell; He smells a lot like Geir since he's in close contact with him like 75% of the time. Otherwise he smells like an ordinary human who spends a lot of time outdoors. idk how Geir smells we'll find out when Tanz answers the meme

Etc; he's in a blood pact with a dragon that's pretty cool

lancer | fate/stay night

[personal profile] cuchulainn 2017-10-11 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
Lancer (Cú Chulainn)

Height; 6'0" | 185cm
Weight; 154lbs | 70kg (japanese measurements are usually fucked up, assume he weighs more than this, closer to 200lbs)
Visual; Lancer is a tall young looking man with 100% natural blue hair and red eyes. His hair is pulled back into a long ponytail (and looks like a mullet) and his eyes have characteristic cat-like pupils, due to his divine heritage (thanks dad). He has no visible scars or other real defining features. He's extremely fit and athletic, though he's not extremely bulky in the muscle department- he's built more like a sprinter than anything.

(I say no other defining features BUT in F/GO Lancer is shown to have some some red tattoos that I only assume are canon outside of it, since I can't remember if they're shown elsewhere.)

Fashion; g a r b a g e. In Fate/Hollow Ataraxia Lancer's casual clothes consist of leather pants and a white t-shirt (here), or leather pants and a gaudy hawaiian shirt (here). His servant clothing is almost preferable, despite being a skin-tight blue suit with (probably useless) pauldrons. Probably the best looking thing he wears are his earrings.

Please don't let him dress himself.

Demeanour; Lancer varies in how he carries himself, but generally his posture is upright though relaxed. He'll freely slouch and act lazy when he's off doing something like fishing. But as a warrior, Lancer's body is honed in a variety of ways and it's obvious. He is an agile mover, which in the wrong scenario (aka: in a fight) comes across in fierce and bestial movements. In the right scenario though, it just comes off in a poise and way of moving of someone that is completely comfortable in their body and knows how to carry themself.

Sound; Lancer's seiyuu is Nobutoshi Canna. Sample: here. IMPORTANT THING TO NOTE: HE SOUNDS LIKE AN OLD ASS MAN AND TALKS LIKE ONE TOO, DON'T LET HIS FACE FOOL YOU.

Smell; Lancer is described as smelling like blood and a beast. So, that's a thing. But for real he probably has a pretty natural scent since he's always in a tree or something. Or, cigarettes when he's able to smoke them. also dog because har har dog jokes

Etc; In places where magic is allowed (as in anyone's canon magic, not the magic given by Qri) Lancer is basically a ghost made of magic. He can and will turn invisible and go through walls and stuff. Also, he's fast and strong. Good stuff.

nike lemercier | soredemon sekai wa utsukushii

[personal profile] drizzle 2017-10-11 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
Nike Lemercier

Height; 5'8" (with heels) 5'6" (without heels)
Weight; 147
Visual; She is a sixteen year old who looks older due to her improper care and living a less than basic lifestyle; even though she is a princess. She has silky, long and light orange hair, that seems close to peach color. Her skin is a light tone, filled with light freckles on her face and back, with green eyes. The asset most guys notice is her legs, hips, and chest; although her royal stylist believe she is considered chubby due to most women of the Sun Kingdom having petite figures while she in turn has an hour glass figure.

Fashion; Her favorite outfit to wear is her short one piece formal pink dress that feels more like a jean material than anything else. She wears them with her knee-length brown boots. Nike is typically seen wearing similar style clothes with colors that compliment her skin tone and eye color like red, green, and blue. Her favorite outfits are those that allow her freedom to move around without feeling constraint while showing off her long legs. She has a strong dislike in wearing overly formal dresses, tight pants, or anything that shows off her chest or back.

Demeanour; Nike is energetic would be the largest understatement to describe her. She is very social, optimistic, and loves to talk. Expect a lot of questions about yourself and your world! Along with any areas of expertise if she catches on it. Most characters might find her immature, pushy, meddlesome, and simply put obnoxious; however once she catches something off about someone -- even people she dislikes -- expect her to prod a bit about it.

Sound; Loud, energetic, but somewhat low in voice pitch. This is the best example of her voice whenever she isn't being loud. She is a fantastic singer though. Expect to hear her sing for the most part due to her powers being directly connected to it.

Smell; Due to living in the Sun Kingdom for three months, she should have a sweet flowery and vanilla-like smell to her due to her luxurious baths; however expect her to smell of nature (like flowers and dirt, for example). She uses scented water after her baths.

Etc;
Nike can attract cloud spirits whenever she is up on a high mountain tops (who will protect her from harm and attack those, even her, to keep her out of danger)

Kosuzu Motoori | Touhou Project

[personal profile] decipheringeye 2017-10-11 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
Kosuzu Motoori

Height; 5'0" (est)
Weight; 110 lbs (est)
Visual; In a word, average. No muscle tone to speak of, not overweight or underweight, short. She has John Lennon style round glasses, but only wears them when she's reading.

Fashion; Having been whisked into the Spellbind Dimension, her outfit choices are fairly limited - the clothes she has are quite old-fashioned. The version on the left includes her coat, and she doesn't wear it indoors. It's yellow.

Demeanour; Highly animated! Kosuzu's emotional reactions are a bit exaggerated - springy and bright when happy or excited, slouching and pouty when sad or disappointed. Her personal space bubble is small - she has a tendency to get right up close to people, especially when she's excited about something.

Sound; Fairly fast talker, high register. Speaks pretty clearly, but tends to stumble over her words when trying to lie. Polite with people she doesn't know well, but quickly falls into speaking more casually as she gets to know someone. Like her posture, her voice very clearly transmits how she's feeling.

Smell; Beyond the usual smells you'd expect on someone surviving on a mysterious island, there's a faint enduring scene of old books.

Etc; She probably has a faint magic residue on her to be detected by the magically sensitive, just from living in a bookstore filled with cursed-as-shit tomes.

2B | NIER: AUTOMATA

[personal profile] apatheia 2017-10-11 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
2B

Height; 5'5" / 168cm (including her heels; what's her height without them? we just don't know.....)
Weight; 328lbs / 148.8kg
Visual; Someone out there wanted androids to be hot as hell, what can I say (thanks Yoko Taro). 2B has a fair complexion, short white hair, and pale blue eyes, though she doesn't take her blindfold-like goggles very often, so you probably won't see her eyes that frequently anyways. (She actually has the same face as another Automata character here though, A2, if you really want to know.) She also has a beauty mark near the left corner of her mouth. Despite being a literal fighting machine, she has a slim build and certainly doesn't look like she could punch holes through walls, but y'know.

Fashion; Again, someone out there wanted androids to look cool as hell!! She's always in her standard issue YoRHa uniform, a black dress with feathered sleeves and a high slit in the skirt. It's cool okay, I love her design so much BUT ANYWAYS— She doesn't know a thing about fashion since it was never a concern for her, so she'd probably have a hard time dressing herself. She received a baby blue tshirt from 9S a little while ago that she'd like to wear, but given how high-cut her leotard is on the bottom and that she'd just wear her tshirt over her leotard, I haven't been able to bring myself to embarrass myself like that just yet. Someone please teach her about pants and the concept of modesty.

Demeanour; 2B is a cool professional, through and through. She doesn't take up space or curl in on herself, neither over-confident or particularly shy, keeping her arms loose by her side or folding them when standing. Her run is efficient (as is her TOP SPEED RUNNING), and her walk is calm and focused. She gives the impression of someone who knows what they're doing and what they want. (No but really she's just so cool, thanks Platinum for giving so much detail to the animations.)

Sound; Clear and crisp. Her pitch is on the lower end of the spectrum, and she speaks evenly, neither fast nor slow. She'll pause or hum lightly while she sorts out her thoughts rather than stuttering or using filler words. No accent, but she'll shorten words and can speak pretty casually.

Smell; Clean, probably?? Or like outside. She keeps herself clean, but her idea of a bath is standing under a waterfall to wash herself, so uh. Like freshwater, let's go with that.

Etc;

have you ever seen lips like these honestly

Hakuno Kishinami

Height; 160cm
Weight; 45kg
Visual; Hakuno was described by her creators as "the third prettiest girl in class." She’s "cute, but not cute enough to debut as an idol." She's a NPC character, so her coloring is common enough to blend into a crowd. The most notable feature on her face is probably her big, dollish doe eyes.

Fashion; Hakuno has three sets of clothing, all without the shoes featured. The only shoes she has now are a set of rough-hewn sandals Vern helped her make, for which she is extremely grateful.

Demeanour; Hakuno has a very normal and common gait, and a comfortable, straight posture most of the time. The only thing of note is that she's had apparent practice in running for her life on a fairly frequent basis, though she doesn't have a proper athlete's form. According to her creator, her overall impression is a “quiet girl on the outside, but strong as iron on the inside.”

Sound; According to Fate/Grand Order Anthology Drama CD: The Blue Bird, Hakuno's voice is extremely soft, so much so that some of the characters can't properly hear her give my girl a VA you cowards and have to resort to lipreading translated courtesy of Grown Up Waver Velvet though I do not take it to that extreme. Hakuno speaks very softly usually, but well within the range of average human hearing. She speaks calmly, and her voice melts easily into a crowd.

Smell; She smells faintly like candy and sea breeze candles.

Etc; someone teach my baby to accessorize, please, she's wasting those third-rate not-idol-tier looks

Jay the Unseen

Height; 5'1" (I used to have metric, but alas, this has been lost to time.)
Weight; allegedly 104 lbs but let's just go with "skinny"
Visual; thin but toned (he is in ridiculous shape), not that you're going to see it because he typically wears very loose clothing. from the outside, he looks like a short, skinny kid, basically. of note: he does look his age in build (icons in mirror may be more shota than they appear), at least according to the game, but he's got a bit of a babyish face. his eyes are actually lavender.

Fashion; GESTURES TO LEFT, he has atrocious fashion sense but is not actually wearing the garish thing pictured there most of the time (anymore). he's taken to long pants since joining the coven since it's more to his advantage to look older. lots of tunics, lots of loose button-downs. usually a jacket now that it's cold. no bell collar (it's in his hut) but he does still put his hair up in that stupid side ponytail, and he really likes Colors and Patterns.

Demeanour; confident, shoulders back, very what-do-you-mean-i'm-not-supposed-to-be-here? he tends to lean into you if he's interested. he's got his hands in his pockets a lot, and he'll shrug expansively, gesture with both his arms, that kind of thing. he moves like someone who expects to take up space, basically.

Sound; i'm shit at describing voices so have a clip. he's kind of a smooth talker--he'll alternate between drawing the words out and speaking very fast.

Smell; I IMAGINE HE SMELLS PRETTY OVERPOWERINGLY LIKE FOREST AT THIS POINT. maybe a hint of soap.

Etc; he's got very open body language BUT he'll basically never touch you.

Mio Yamanobe

Height; 163cm (5'4")
Weight; 45kg (99.2 lbs)
Visual; Mio is a bit on the petite side for a 15 year old boy, being short and slender (although he is 3cm taller than the 29 year old Eva-sama). He has floofy silver hair that wings out on either side to look a bit like ears. His eyes are golden and he doesn't wear contacts of any kind. His pale skin goes nicely with his Gothic Aesthetic, and he doesn't appear to have any freckles or birthmarks of any kind.

Fashion; For the most part, Mio dresses in a gothic fashion. Dark colors, frills, bows, and the occasional lacy item. He also seems to enjoy jackets or coats with ears attached to them (he has a cat one, a bat one, and a werewolf one at the very least). Sometimes he'll wear white or colorful things but it's pretty rare. Even rarer, he'll wear something "normal", but again it's not very often. If it's cute, he'll wear it. That's basically his fashion philosophy. And also, whatever Eva puts him in, he'll gladly wear it.

Demeanour; Mio carries himself with as much grace and elegance as he can manage, to mimic Eva (and his image of Eva). He doesn't seem put off by his stature or size and carries himself with confidence. His posture is straight and proper, even when he's using his cauldron.

Sound; His voice actor is Kakihara Tetsuya. His voice is a little deeper than you might expect of him. But he sounds like a 15 year old boy, basically. He can speak a little old fashioned just because of his chuuni-ness. He also sings quite well for his idol band, RE:BERSERK. When he's with Eva or talking about Eva, he sounds sweet and obedient, but when he's talking to others, he can be bratty and challenging. Here's a cute Halloween song by his band (with spanish subtitles though...)

Smell; He smells clean with a hint of something like mulling spices. He no doubt uses some kind of soap or perfume given or suggested to him by Eva.

Etc; I wish there was cute gifs of him...

jade harley / homestuck

[personal profile] witchhooded 2017-10-11 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
Jade Harley

Height; around 5'4" give or take!? look, she's a homestuck.
Weight; 130lbs or so? she's a little beefier than you expect her to be, okay.
Visual; Jade is just shy of average height with an athletic build; most of her strength is in her arms and it's not incredibly hard to see! She's been wearing those giant, round glasses since she was born, so she's been ahead of the tumblr selfie trend curb for a while. In addition to the glasses, she's got buckteeth that are easy to see when she smiles. Jade also had white dog ears on top of her head! Does she have human ears still? Who knows. If she does, they're hidden by her ridiculously long hair. It's well past her waist and pretty messy. She's been in charge of it on her own so she the cut is uh, wild, to say the least.

Fashion; She likes to keep her clothing as girly as possible, usually, and you'll never catch Jade in a pair of pants. She likes bright colors and flowy, long skirts, as well as making sure all her clothing is practical (read: computers?). You'll usually catch her in her god tier hoodie, completely with ruby red slippers and striped stockings. She favors blue above all else in fashion though, tbh.

Demeanour; Jade's very energetic, peppy and cheerful and it shows in how she carries herself! Even when she's idle, she's moving around a bit, whether it's rocking back and forth on her legs, fidgeting with her hands or something else. She's just got too much energy and happiness to spread okay

Sound; Jade's tone is very even and she speaks clearly, perhaps a bit slowly, enunciating properly the whole time. She talks a bit like a grandma at times, but I imagine the closest approximation to her voice would be Judy Garland as Dorothy.

Smell; A little bit like wet dog sometimes, honestly. Maybe "earthy" - she spends a lot of time gardening, after all. Otherwise, it's just "clean"; Jade likes to look and feel good, after all.

Etc;

funny dog eat a Pepsi

Geir

Height; That reference image is pretty much correct! I'D SAY AROUND ~30-35 FEET TALL and Very Long when he stretches out. He's not often standing that tall or stretched that far out, though. He likes to lay nearly flat or piled on top of himself most of the time when he talks to humans, and stick lowish to the ground in general.
Weight; he's a huge fucking dragon what do you want from me Less dense than an elephant or whale or something else massive, but more dense than a bird, and overall heavy from sheer mass. He moves and stands much lighter and quicker over the ground than it looks like he should, despite this.
Visual; HE'S VERY... STRIKING... imagine that tall but gawky college kid who always slept through your sophomore 8:00 a.m. class. Then imagine that that kid is a giant snake.

Fashion; He likes to force other people to dress up in colors or shiny things, the brighter the better. For his own part he's just kind of large and black and glittery in the right light.

Demeanour; Unless Geir is blanking out, his ENTIRE BODY is an incredible commentary on his emotional state. While his normal stance is solid and balanced, it's very common for him to move in and out of it frequently as he expresses his feelings. He borrows from a million animals: puppyish when he's excited (romping along with a bit of a bounce in his step! half-tripping over his feet! soulful eyes! quivering with eagerness! hangdog with sadness! scratching the back of his head with his foot!), kittenish when he's tetchy or thoughtful (batting at things! twitching his tail! arching his back and tensing up like he's about to hiss! staring intently at nothing!), and birdlike when he's feeling curious (tilting his head! trying to look at you upside down!); he also has a whole range of other behaviors, such as coiling around himself restlessly, crowding close to someone for reassurance, or wrapping them up or nuzzling them to show affection. When he's upset he'll hide his face from you very literally behind the tip of one of his wings or under a coil of his tail or body. On the other hand, if you give him an indication that it's okay to be tactile, he will shove his head under your hand and demand petting, and if he's comfortable with someone he'll often edge closer and closer to them throughout a stressful or tense conversation until he's touching as much of them as possible. Geir's face is very easy to read, especially his expressive eyes. I'll note whether he widens them or narrows them a lot in tags because it's more usual than not for him to be very reactive that way during the course of a conversation. It's not exactly that he's consciously in motion, and many of these movements are quite slow and gradual! It's more that it's typically very easy to see a snapshot of his feelings at any point in a conversation.

Sound; Geir's voice is much more normal than anyone would have any right to expect, and definitely gentler and lighter than you'd assume from looking at him. He really only uses the lower range of his voice to growl or hypnotize people, and though there's a slight resonant tone in his voice from the size of his chest, he's not very loud. There's a curious, earnest quality to his words most of the time that goes well with the direct quality of his speech. He doesn't stutter, but he does draw words out longer when he's thinking or being affectionate, and his word choices always feel very deliberate even when his words themselves are impulsive or quick: he's trying to express his thoughts very clearly all the time. It's not that he really thinks through his word choices deliberately in advance, so much as that he kicks every word out in front of him like a stone that's part of an attempt to build a bridge to you, and thus, each one has a certain weight. Geir comes across as pretty intelligent and analytical and uses vocabulary words sometimes when he learns them, but he's very casual rather than formal as a rule in his phrasing and attitude.

Smell; He mostly takes on the smell of the places he's spending a lot of time, so he'll typically smell like the sea or the forest or the deep places of the earth! If you shove your face right against his scales and huff them, there's the barest hint of some kind of incense.

Etc; He's VERY VERY MAGICAL AND POWERFUL but it's kind of amorphous; you can't really get a read on what he's affiliated with or what he can do except darkness. His thoughts run on two levels, one of them sounding exactly like the way he talks and the other something subterranean and tectonic and slowly building and kind of terrifying; a lot of his deepest thoughts and impulses sort of end up there, on a level it's difficult to touch directly. He has a blood pact with Vern that anyone can sense if they want!

Sorey

Height; 5'9"
Weight; Normal teenage boy weight? He's got muscle so probably a little heavier because of that. BOY WORKS OUT
Visual; He looks like a pretty normal human boy, possibly on the beefy side for his age. STRONG, MANLY SHOULDERS--okay they're not that manly comparatively, but he's still growing! There are probably a few little scars from doing stupid things growing up and also fighting monsters all the time but his clothes cover those. One can only assume that his hair is very fluffy and soft.

Fashion; For the most part he dresses like this! Some days he might not be wearing the Shepherd's cloak but it's safe to say he's got on the full outfit 95% of the time. Yes, even the feather earrings. He's always wearing those.

He also has a hoodie that he wears at night sometimes when it's cold, because it's comfy.

Demeanour; His posture changes a little depending on how well he knows someone; on a first or second meeting he sits and stands up straight, good posture and arms kept close to his side or on his hips. He tries to be a good boy and talk politely too. After a few times being around someone, or if they're close to his age, he's more expressive--he'll move his arms and hands around when he's talking, be more expressive and generally excited with his face, and has no issues with slouching and throwing his limbs around. He's not in the realm of too enthusiastic, but there's a high chance he's displaying some level of excitement at anything he shows interest in. In general he's got good balance but if he's not paying attention he might stumble over something.

Sound; I...I don't know, this is what he sounds like,

Smell; S-sweaty teenage boy tbh. He keeps clean and is generally mindful of trying to not stink when he has the chance, but if he's been running around in the forest all day you probably don't want to get close enough to smell him.

Etc; I tried to find really cheesy valentine's day e-cards but failed so have this instead

Madoka Kaname

Height; Somewhere between 4'11" and 5'0". Girl be tiny.
Weight; Probably in the 95 to 100 pound range? She would be easy to pick up and lug over one's shoulder like a sack of potatoes.
Visual; Pink. Tiny. Madoka has a slim build and probably appears pretty delicate at a first glance, but spend any time in a scuffle with or alongside her, and she'll prove to be the exact opposite. By technical definition, she is a lich — her soul is stuck inside this tiny pink fabergé egg, and she uses it to power her magical abilities on high frequency worlds.

Because she does do the fighting thing for a living, she does have her share of scars; however, because of her powerful healing abilities, they tend to be on the smaller side. Many of them sort of look like she's just clumsy and got a lot of nasty paper cuts! (Note: The previous sentence is also something that happens a lot.)

She thinks she's 14, but doesn't realize her birthday was last week, but that doesn't matter anyway, as she is technically timeless because Shenanigans. She doesn't actually remember any of these Shenanigans at the moment, but if she did, one of the forms she would take looks like the picture over to your left.

Fashion; In canon, Madoka is mostly seen in either her school uniform, her magical girl outfit and a couple of random different outfits, but her personal style leans toward the cute — dresses, skirts, frilly things ... look her magical girl outfit is probably the least practical of the Holy Quintet HOW DO YOU RUN WITH ALL THOSE RUFFLES.

However, in the coven, cute clothes aren't really all that available! So she tends to pick comfortable clothes instead. Shorts, shirts, jackets, etc. — she tries to track down her favorite colors, which are white and pink, even though those are also not very practical colors when living on a remote island. (She does, however, like to think she looks cool like how her friend Kyoko dresses?)

She also has a lot of hair ribbons, and will alternate the colors she wears frequently.

Demeanour; Madoka carries herself a lot more confidently than she used to — canonically, there is a shift in her personality in any timeline where she contracts and becomes a magical girl. She gives off an air of politeness, and is still shy sometimes, but can be very affectionate with people she's close to. It's also very easy to fluster her.

Sound; Here's a super badass Madoka shooting the Arc de Triomphe in the face.

She does stutter when flustered, or if, for whatever reason, something's caused her confidence to tank. Otherwise she has a very gentle, friendly and reassuring sort of lilt. She's also pretty good at crying.

Smell; A light scent of flowers, specifically, sweet olives.

Etc; UHH Madoka is a Good Girl who tries her hardest.

Haru Okumura | Persona 5

[personal profile] mapsio 2017-10-11 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
Haru Okumura

Height; She is 158cm or 5 feet 2 inches.
Weight; UNKNOWN. But she is tiny.
Visual; Haru has a very small frame, she is sort of large busted, has brown/violet-ish eyes, and her most notable feature is her incredibly fluffy hair. It's like a sheep, seriously, you should maybe have your character comment on it— she'll definitely blush.

Fashion; She wears a lot of light colored clothing. Mainly pastels. Lots of mint green, pink, and purple. She also likes to wear fluffy sweaters and can mostly be found in skirts and dresses.

Demeanour; She's just a gentle person. Though she has her moments where she can be kind of sadistic?? She's mostly kind and gentle and wants to help EVERYONE. She is still working through some personal issues with trusting people, but it would not be immediately noticeable.

Sound; I WILL LINK IT. Here is her with japanese audio, which is the audio I go with! Though I just want to link for fun my favorite english voice line in this video which is "YOU SHOULDN'T ANNOY A GIRL WITH AN AXE". Bless Xanthe Huynh tbh.

Smell; She smells like the outdoors more recently. But sometimes one might notice a soft vanilla scent coming from her. Perhaps her favorite kind of tea? It's a lot of soft and warm aroma.

Etc;

Dia Kurosawa | Love Live: Sunshine!

[personal profile] idolpedia 2017-10-11 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Dia Kurosawa

Height; 162cm or 5 feet 3 inches
Weight; I would guess she stays around 115 to 120? IDK, she's small and fit like an idol.
Visual; She has long straight brownish black hair in a hime-cut that she always keeps pinned on both sides. Her eyes are a striking green, and if you pay juuuuust enough attention there is a beauty mark under her mouth. She also has a thin build, but is tone due to keeping in shape to be an idol.

Fashion; MOSTLY....she wears her school uniform. Though in some places it is seen that she tends to wear darker colors and lots of dresses. Her idol outfits are flashy and frilly.

Demeanour; She carries herself very elegantly. She walks, talks, and breathes poise. She was raised traditionally so these are all things that were instilled in Dia from Day One. She's very easy to fluster.

Sound; Dia Talking / BUU BUUUU DESU WA / ALSO SHE SINGS.

Smell; She smells like the sea, most notably. She grew up in a seaside town and spent a lot of her time near and in the ocean. She might also smell a bit floral if you get really close?!

Etc;

april fools day was a trip y'all.
