Appearance: Beowulf is a young man with a tall and slim physique, result of his lack of interest in doing exercises and overall laziness. and obviously genetics. He has white skin with traces of yellow, hinting he may have inherited oriental genes. His hair is wavy and quite long, covering his forehead and his ears almost completely. He dons a trench coat over his black vest and blue sweater with a V-neck, where he keeps a tie decorated with a blue gem, while he wears beige pants and brown knickers. The reason he has bandages on his hands are rather unknown, but they might be used to hide his face when he stalks others.

Personality: Beowulf Schattenpalast is a very eccentric person, being lazy and having almost no responsibility, with the only interest of that person being hedonism and fun; his alignment with the government is nothing but a justification for him to do what he wants. For many people, he is a spoiled brat with no restraints into his lifestyle and very cocky to the point of joining the government even if his personality matches with the so-called "psyche terrorists" instead of their own. Seeing his actions as heroism, and the actions of anyone who dares to challenge him, as villainy, Beowulf follows a black-and-white thinking about everything around him; allies, enemies, friends, acquaintances and more or less, anything that goes against his childish desires. Acting like a fool is nothing more than his facade; he wants to bring destruction to the life of others for the means of self-gratification, and steal the identity of the elites for his own benefit and ego. However, all of this is due to his lack of a self; he can't see for himself what he wants or what is the mean of his existence, kept unchecked until he started to steal the identity of unknown people as a coping mechanism against his dissociation, while his desires for destruction resembles the envy he has against those that are okay with their own self-image. Beowulf is the very epitome of the Jester Arcana, being a legit fool and having no sense of what he is and what he wants, while the Fool Arcana is the understanding of what you are and giving strength through bonds.

The Potential

Strengths:

—Strength Name: Imitation.
—Description: Beowulf has the ability to mimic the behavior and personality of those around him perfectly, also making it easier for him to understand others, and manipulate his behavior in a whim. This doubles the earning/learning of Expression points.

—Strength Name: Liar.
—Description: With the fact he mimics too many traits and characteristics, it is almost impossible to tell when he is lying or when he is saying the truth. Beowulf plays around with this impossibility into doubling the earning/learning of Courage points.

—Strength Name: Beatup.
—Description: With his focus on physical education, Beowulf is quite strong compared to the rest. This gives him a boost in his persona's physical strength by 10%.

The Background

History: Beowulf, known as Aleksander Schattenpalast, was always alone, from the start of his life until the dawn of adolescence. His parents were working overseas, leaving their son into the care of irresponsible caretakers and letting him do what he wants, something that they would regret in the future. When his parents couldn't afford to buy a babysitter, they would let his grandfather take care of him. But he was a nazi hunter, famous for lusting over the blood of Nazi Stormtroopers and killing people that had gone against his hedonistic desires; those stories having great effect on the development of Beowulf's psyche.

Without an identity, having all of his personality and traits based on those of his grandfather, he also had no means to identify with the name he was born with. But, after reading the epic of Beowulf, one of the many books in the collection of his deceased grandmother (killed by his grandfather), he decided to take on the name of the book's protagonist, even when his entire personality was more akin to Grendel than to Beowulf. Since he saw himself as the hero and his enemies as villains, from the influence of his grandfather, this didn't matter.

He only could think about acting with his peculiar desires after the Eternal Divide happened. With demons appearing and causing havoc to the entire world, he started to steal identities from the neighborhood and collect them like trophies, earning his title as the impersonator. Without law and justice to stop his rampage over the city he lived in, he got many identities and got bored of them, since demons saw him as one of them and spoiling the fun. Not because he was a psychotic individual, but because he did take their actions as positive.

After hearing rumors about Endymion, he decided to enroll in the Seven Stars Academy there, believing that they could end his boredom from the chaos of his hometown. Throwing away his identity of Aleksander and calling himself as Beowulf Scattenpalast, he moved to Endymion and established there, not knowing what kind of mystery waits for him on the city.

Need a height and weight for charactDr. For one you need at least three strengths, and furthermore the Imitation strength is broad. Can you manipulate people or imitate them? If its anything relating to manipulation it would translate to a boost in Expression. Same for the Liar strength. This also means you need Social quality related weaknesses to back it up.

Sidenote I dont think a peanut allergy would be that mild. And for your social link weakness, its moot since ranks are given based onvroleplay rather than a counter quality so that won't work.

Your soulbound weapon needs dimensions and a length along with your side arm. Everything else is fine.

I did the necessary edits.

Your Expression strength cannot be used for proper manipulation if your level of Expression is not high enough. For Beatup strength you cannot boost your physical attacks by 10%, you can boost your ppstr stat by 10% but that is it. As long as that is what it means then it is fine. Make sure you balance a sq strength with the right weakness. Meaning you must have one weakness per strength. It cannot be balanced with a combat weakness.

I made a small change to the first, going for "manipulating others" to "manipulating his emotions". My Beatup strength is in consideration with my ppstr stat, and the later was replaced with a social weakness.

Make a combat weakness and another sq weakness to balance what you have,

Guest

Two weaknesses created; one that reduces understanding, and another that makes him a "hotspot" for Marin Karin. Bump.
