info: wikisummary:
![]()
transfer student who was expelled from his last school bc he got arrested. almost everyone knows he has a record but not the details, so the rumor mill is wild and most of his classmates avoid him. superficially quiet and polite, but with a reckless, rebellious streak and tendency towards competitiveness. has a strong moral core; he likes to be helpful and is unwilling to turn away from anyone in need, but won't compromise his own values. his glasses are fake, because he thinks they make him look more unassuming (aka a nerd). yes, he is a dumbass.
surprisingly observant and capable of being sharp; he just says stupid shit (his sense of humor is very deadpan) and prefers to leave long-term planning to his more cerebral teammates. athletic despite the slouchy posture; with powers added in, his behavior can be outright ott. he's also probably eavesdropped on you, i'm sorry.
using a lot of his funnier/unhinged dialogue for reference (this is the vibe).
he is human, but may ping demonic/satanic because he's a persona user and his soul is a manifestation of the devil. may have other myth-adjacent pings if he has other personas on him, but they're still fundamentally "him". #wild card privilege
PERMISSIONS —
backdate: y, though i start to let game threads go around the month mark
threadjack: y to texts, ask for logs
fourthwall: y, just don't tell him he's a fictional character
spoilers: fine for any canon
format: pref for brackets, but will match prose
contact: pm, plurk/discord on request; alternatively, drop a comment on my hmd
affection & romance: y, 15+ and some buildup for the latter
violence & death: y, just run actually hospitalizing or killing him past me
magic & telepathy: y, just don't get godmody with it
memes: canon, crosscanon, ocs, crossmedium; you name it and i'm probably game. good for platonic or romantic cr, though i default to gen outside of shippy memes. unrequited feelings are also always fine, both on ren's end and other characters', but i know that isn't everyone's bag. assumed cr is fine, i just can't guarantee i'm canon-familiar and may need to make assumptions to move the thread along. negative cr is fine since gestures to ren's life.
for aus, i try to ignore canon-specific jargon unless i know you're canon-familiar, because why would i make you put up with this jrpg nonsense. i'm familiar with strikers and tactica (more the former than the latter), but don't know much about other smt/persona games beyond dim memories of p4 and rp osmosis; sorry about that. but if you're game, i'm game!
OPT OUT —
ren's backstory involves corruption and police brutality; he was framed for assault by a politician and later beaten up and drugged by cops while in custody. while he isn't inclined to talk about it in even that much detail (and i'd forewarn you on the off-chance it might happen), it may get passing mention. if you'd like to preemptively opt out of that or cr in general, send a pm or drop a comment on my hmd.
on my end, just don't blindside me with noncon or other stuff you'd obviously ask about first and we're good.
