Appearance
It would be right to call the boy who materializes before me beautiful. But his eyes hold shades of despair quite contrary to his appearance. Hans Christian Andersen. One of the three greatest authors of children’s stories in the world, famous for “The Little Mermaid” and “The Little Match Girl.” This boy created those bedtime stories I’ve heard countless times?
☆ Looks like a 10 year-old boy, about 4'7"
☆ Burn scars cover his arms, mermaid scales cover his legs (1)
Fashion
☆ Has a very strong fondness for oversized coats
☆ Doesn't need to wear glasses, but wears them anyway
☆ A dandy
Demeanor & Attitude
Your speech is dull, but your eye for people is first-rate. I thought perhaps you were a mad dog begging for death, but your character is that of an adventurer who challenges despair. You put your life on the line to speak the truth. You put your soul in every reckless utterance. To you, to give up your words would mean the death of your soul. Compared to that, actual death is nothing to be feared.
☆ Confident, often crossing the line to arrogant
☆ Dramatic
☆ Frequently gestures with his hands, as if he's acting on stage
☆ Always looks as if he's scrutinizing/judging someone
☆ His smiles often have a bite to them, they're rarely soft and warm
Voice
Magic & Mind-Reading
☆ Magic: Andersen is a Heroic Spirit, which is essentially a super-powerful familiar. Magic users will probably be able to sense that he's a giant bundle of energy.
☆ Mind-Reading: Andersen won't have any defenses against mind-reading, though he'll be aware that someone's poking around in his head. Hmu if you want specific details!
Powers
☆ Heroic Spirit: Andersen is a familiar made of magical energy, or mana. He's anchored to the physical world by establishing a contract with a Master. He can shift into an intangible spirit form and cannot die unless his spiritual core, or Saint Graph, is destroyed.
☆ Item Creation: Andersen can create items from his fairy tales.
☆ Territory Creation: Andersen can create a small magical space which he can hide in. It often takes the form of a study.
☆ High-Speed Incantation: Andersen can write faster than a college student hyped up on 10 Red Bulls with a thesis paper due before midnight.
☆ Human Observation: Essentially, high-level deduction. Andersen is able to intimately understand the personality of anyone he meets, even if he's just met them. This borders on infomodding, so I'll check w/ you first if it's ever to be used.
☆ Noble Phantasm: A Noble Phantasm is a Servant's trump card. Andersen's is called Märchen Meines Lebens: A Story For You. It allows him to transform his subject into their ideal self. Its potential is powerful, as it can theoretically elevate the target into god-like being. The downside, however, is that Andersen has to 1) complete the work and 2) finish the work with a good ending. Because of the time and effort such an NP takes, its effects are usually limited to temporary buffs (ex. heals allies for a short period of time, briefly powers them up.)
☆ Backtagging: Yes please!
☆ Threadjacking: So long as it's not private, go ahead.
☆ Fourth-Walling: It's okay if your character knows who HCA is, I'd rather he not know he's a video game/anime character.
☆ Physical Contact: A-ok. Nothing sexual please u_u
☆ Fighting/Injury: A-ok. Hmu (goatsong) if you want to do anything serious!
☆ Death: Let's talk!
☆ Romance/Shipping: Andersen's a really weird character bc he's a 70 yr old man stuck in a 10 yr old's body! I'm open to shipping with him, but I'd rather not thread it in a game bc I don't want to squick ppl out.
If that doesn't deter you, hmu! My favorite ships are Andersen/Shakespeare, Andersen/Murasaki, Andersen/Kiara, and Andersen/Dantes, but I'm open to anything, so long as the characters are 20+ :>!

✱ He's scraping his own mermaid scales off and selling them for ~1,500 cunes/scale at the Goblin Market... it takes two months for them to grow back, though, so it's more like a small emergency fund for himself. He sells approx. 240 scales every two months.✱ Andersen is currently penning books to sell on the market.Magic.
