The Biography
|
Birth Name: Lars Grendelwulf.
Aliases: Rarasu Garunadaworofo, "that 30 year old looking mofo", "Kung Fu Viking?", "That nice looking 15 year old kid".
Gender: Male.
Age: 15 years old.
Birth Day: January 5th.
Arcana: The Hermit.
Place of Residence: Nadeshiki.
School Year: First Year.
Class: (We'll fill this in once you're approved. This will be your class in school)
After School Club: Anime Club.
Part Time Job: Bouncer in Nadeshiki, probably because Kaeko took pity on the scrawny Lars.
Appearance: Standing at the short and modest midget height of 7'0"ft. compared to his fellow Norwegians, as the short and scrawny person, as compared to his fellow Norwegians, his weak body ripples with bulging biceps, 18 packs, well developed triceps, foreceps, whateverceps, leg muscles, just whatever there is to develop muscularly. Even his neck is bulging with muscles. Probably someone as weak ass as Lars would be picked on by the bullies because of his short and scrawny appearance with that bodybuilder hardness and well chiseled abs he sports. He doesn't usually tend to wear a shirt, but does sit around with a school pants and shoes. He has a "thin" thick beard, thick eye brows, and a thick curly hair. His eyes speak of sorrows, no doubt from bullying, and his hands are the size of your average Japanese person's head, in that he can grapple them and fit them all in his palm. REALLY WEAK. He probably is going to invite a lot of scorn from his peers from being the weakling in his Japanese school, which is unfortunate, seeing how he is a foreign exchange student. Takes two seats when he sits down usually, and speaks in a very deep voice. Lars is obviously Norwegian thanks to his pale skin. Yep, just another average Norwegian kid, who is just trying to fit in an alien society. Obviously he looks young, and befitting a man of his age as a person of Caucasian descent with Nordic roots.
Personality: Ever since Lars moved to Japan, his attempt to convey his persona and actual communication came to a fail, which leaves him rather irritated, making remarks now and then in his native language as his lack of understanding the language has made it something for him to dabble in talking anyways, in the OFF CHANCE that someone actually understands his native tongue. Lars is a rather wise kind of guy with keen perception, and unfathomable wisdom, contrary to his appearance of a small and meek person (HUGE BULGING BRUTE). He has much depths left unexplored, and prefers to say his mind, well learned of many great works, thesis and a great myriad of cultural subjects. But alas, the intellectual Lars is finding himself understood for naught, shut out like a hermit, and without any audience to behold his wisdom. Not that he tries to change his situation, but he is on the way towards doing it. Yep, just an average person, nothing wrong with him at all, but circumstances often make him out to be something less than average for some mysterious reason.

The Potential
|
Strengths: (Anything your character is skilled in, such as Martial Arts/ Drawing/ etc? You are allowed a maximum of five strengths and a minimum of three.)
—Strength Name: Great Resilience.
—Description: With great power comes great responsibili-- I mean... Lars is a really well built guy, whose muscles are like iron potatoes. He can dish it as well as he can take it, and would take some REALLY HARD HITS to stagger him, otherwise he can go about unfazed or rather not as effected when it comes to combat. It doesn't help that he weighs quite a good amount, stands tall, and is bulging with muscles.
—Strength Name: Huge Strength.
—Description: With muscles the size of melons, and very powerful abs, and powerful PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING ELSE, Lars's strength is not something to scoff about. He can crush an apple with only squeezing it, punch people REALLY HARD, as in getting hit by him sends people flying away. Or just really hurt, and bruised, and with cracked bones. It is not unusual that he could bend steel pipes easily, and neither is it unusual that his huge fists pack a monstrous power behind it.
—Strength Name: Veteran Combatant.
—Description: Lars has been through a lot in Norway, fighting against elements there that often disagreed with his existence. He knew that his muscles did not help him because there were stronger people than him there, whom were even more giant. He had to learn to use his intellect and fight pragmatically without adhering to a style, it just came naturally to him when it comes to a fight. To hit where it hurts, and to be unpredictable as he can by not taking a form aside from the faux stances he employs just so he can hit easier. It is not drilled into his body on what to hit, but it comes instinctively to him.
—Strength Name: High agility.
—Description: Contrary to his height and bulky appearance, Lars is quite quick on the get go. He can be fast, covering distances in short and ample time quite faster than one would expect. His hits aren't slow either. The point is, he is a fast guy, oddly enough relying more on propelling himself forward by putting strength into his running than to run quicker, taking "leaps" as one would say instead of a run. But that's only his method for traversing grounds quickly. He is normally capable of even running fast either ways.
—Strength Name: Vast stamina.
—Description: His stamina knows no bounds, for tiring Lars is a very very difficult thing to do. He can run a marathon for quite a hefty mile before finding himself feeling fatigue that comes with it. His cardio is pretty well developed, and so is the regimen he keeps up so his upper body isn't tired either. Lars is a fine physical specimen whose cardio is just as good as his strength. Point being, he doesn't get tired easily.
Weaknesses: (You must have the same amount of weaknesses as strengths. These weaknesses pertain to you and not your Persona. IE: Physically Weaker, lack of attention span, etc.)
—Weakness Name: Language barrier.
—Description: He can only speak Norwegian, and not ANY OTHER LANGUAGE. This comes as a HUGE DISADVANTAGE when it comes to living in Japan, especially since he is fresh off the boat. Nobody understands him, and he doesn't understand people. Usually communication boils down to hand signs, and gesturing, BUT, that takes time, and is slow as Hell.
—Weakness Name: Delusional.
—Description: Within the mind work of Lars, he suffers from countless delusion that often spurs about in his mind, from unrealistic expectations all the way to perceived scenarios that do not factor in a great myriad of circumstances. Whichever the case, his delusion is far foregone, and very vast enough to warrant that it is not just delusions of grandeur he suffers from, but everything else as well.
—Weakness Name: Paranoid.
—Description: In a village that once he would find himself jumped on by many people at once, he finds himself restless and incapable of keeping his guard down all the time. Often imagining circumstances that are not there, making something out of nothing. Anxiety about everything, expecting the impossible. He doesn't trust anyone, and finds himself harder to form a bond with them as a result. Doesn't help he doesn't speak the Japanese language, which he sometimes finds them scheming on him perhaps to stab him? He always sits at a corner, or if he cannot, he often maintains a constant visual around his surrounding like mirrors, or ANYTHING just so he can even feel the slightest bit of security.
—Weakness Name: Ninja Turtle.
—Description: The thing about Lars is that he does not know his own strength, and through a misunderstanding, applies more pressure than it is meant to be as a result. Breaking desks, pencils, even squeezing hands too hard that blood is constricted from the poor sap who offered to shake his hand. Which can be a problem, especially since he can do anything but the lowest setting without at least CONSCIOUSLY adhering to it, and having already measured it so to be doing so.
—Weakness Name: Hedonist.
—Description: As a man of excess, comes also ravenous darkness within Lars. His inhibitions always lurking from behind his mind as he perhaps prefers the thrills a little too much. Finding solace in venting himself out, to partake in the carnal, or the cognitive stimulus. It matters not, he is a man for the moment, and a moment he lives for, albeit depraving, with weird tastes to himself. Making him quite unrepresentable due to such appearances he takes as a consequence of it, and also sabotaging him as he would find himself hard played to pick priorities between what is practical and what is entertaining.
Soul Bound Weapon: (This is the weapon you'll be able to summon to your hand while in combat. This weapon is special for your character specifically and allows you to fight Shadows without the need of summoning your Persona. This can be anything but a Gun (Or gun related weapon))
Weapon Name: Katar.
Weapon Description: The basic katar has a short, wide, triangular blade. Its peculiarity lies in the handle which is made up of two parallel bars connected by two or more cross-pieces, one of which is at the end of the side bars and is fastened to the blade. The remainder forms the handle which is at right angle to the blade. The handle is generally of all-steel construction and is forged in one piece together with the blade. The blade, typically measuring 2 feet in length, is usually cut with a number of fullers.
Weapon Image: - Spoiler:
Weapon Attack Type: Pierce.
Weapon Element: (Leave this blank. Only special weapons obtain an element behind its blows.)

The Background
|
History: Lars's life was never easy, in that in his native Norway, the town he grew up in, he often was picked on for being different from everyone else. For not being tough enough as the rest of everyone. Which as a result, alienated him from the rest and landed him in fights in which he has to beat up the people PRAGMATICALLY. When he isn't fighting, he is flexing his intellectual prowess during that time. But alas, his woes were to come to an end as a long many years of battling others that hate him just for being Lars would be met with him moving away, INDEFINITELY. It meant that he no longer had to fight people anymore, as being the shortest person around in class, and considered the scrawniest too. GOOD RIDDANCE. He was so pissed off and sick of fighting every day, EVEN WHEN he is going to the grocery store to get milk, or maybe some eggs.
Whichever the case, that trip was long and tiring, as Japan was a country quite far away. That when they reached the land, it was far different than his cold homeland, where the people there are strangely all looking alike. Lars particularly was stared at by people. Probably they thought he looked fascinating? Or perhaps to his paranoia, they were sizing him up for bullying, that at times he would flip out and punch them as a result. Though during his tenure there, as he has no friends as a result of his erratic behaviour, and his lack of mastery of their tongue, he came across a job there...
For some oddest of reasons, Lars was picked up as a bouncer for some club, probably out of pity, seeing how scrawny he is. Finding employment there gave him more leverage to actually pay for the things he wants in Japan, and get by easier, as his parents were actually not living in the same area as he is for some reason. Deciding he needs time to develop ALONE. For the most part, he was seen as the odd one out there, and came to learn Japanese but VERY SLOWLY, and only VERY BASIC WORDS, like water, or bathroom, but those are some of the only words he know among the rare few others. The point being, communication for him is a very huge PAIN IN THE ASS, and he has to intelligently bide his time to actually destroy this language barrier once and for all, for a lack of communication often means he cannot tell the plots of other people to do things to him probably in their Japanese tongue and etc. Anyways, school was weird in that they allow him to come to school without a shirt, since there are NO SHIRTS large enough to actually house his musc-- scrawny build, and he has come to study DUTIFULLY, at least in a program to get him up to the language, hopefully?
