Axel | Kingdom Hearts | Corsair

PLAYER INFO

Player: RJ
Contact: [plurk.com profile] ChaosCornchip Add me! Even if we don't have CR, I love hearing what other players are up to!


CHARACTER INFO

Character: Axel
Canon: End of KH II
Armada: Corsair

About: What happens when you take a friendly and outgoing teen with a mischievous streak, remove his capacity to feel and train him as an assassin for a near decade? You get anomalies like Axel. Axel is known in KH terms as a Nobody: a 'person' without a heart who can no longer experience emotion, but one who is extremely good at faking it.

Thanks to his strong connection to people like Roxas and Sora, Axel has been able to reawaken some 'feeling' in himself over time, but it is often in short bursts and extremely fleeting for anyone outside of their presence. The Armada brands hurt Axel bad in this regard. With nearly all of his CR being Paladins he has been lonely and fighting hard not to regress back into the apathetic shell he used to be.
Thankfully after a month of recovery he is slowly regaining his sense of self.

He can be meddlesome and liable to push people out of their comfort zones-- if only to experience something vicariously through their reactions-- but he has a good 'heart'--even if it, er, isn't exactly inside of him-- underneath the sass and swagger. The lone adult on the Plus Ultra crew.


PLANS

General: Definitely a lighter month for me. I used all last month closing up Event threads and just need a bit of a breather. I'm happy to keep things loose and tag into things that catch my eye though. I have a lot of lovely new castmates I'd love to get to know better!

I'm always looking for positive things Axel can learn to use his fire for. His magic is the one part of his identity that he feels actually belongs to him, that isn't just steeped in darkness, and it's become increasingly important to find some way to see it as something more than just a tool that the Organization would use.

That said, almost dying in prison has definitely given him a wakeup call to never be caught that helpless again...

I'm also open to backdating any rift shenanigans because I missed my chance for that last month and who doesn't love fun with portals?

MANTA Board: The Tavern Brawl could be a great chance for some silly chaos or something like Eggscort duty could have potential (maybe Axel can warm some eggs that a parent unfortunately isn't returning for until others can help relocate the the nest to a new surrogate)
Going on looser quests like ingredient gathering could also be nice, just a good setup to banter while on the job.

I'm excited to see the Balmoro on there too! I might wait on that one to roll over into next month to really make good use out of the prompts for it but there's no reason I can't fight them multiple times either!

Event: I don't know about top levelling but I'll definitely be bouncing around the TDM. I keep getting suprised by new castmates, so I want to make sure I'm available and possibly use the event as a backdrop to get to know some of my newer CR better too. Nothing out of the ordinary here!

As 'hotheaded' as Axel might come off, revenge against  the crystal raiders isn't really something he'll go out of his way for this time. Let someone else do the icky jobs. He has given a pretty callous impression of himself though, in regards to Elah, perhaps he'll make up for that a bit by defending the island against some shark/shark folk attacks.
