─── ❀〖 Charm’s Personality 〗❀ ─── ♫ Just let me be close to you ♫ Hello! This is the personality for my upcoming TFCRP character, Charm :D She’s part of a loner sibling group along with three littermates and an older brother. I hope you enjoy reading about my dramatic, obsessive, overconfident detective! I made a moodboard for her as well, which is in the background of this project. A design/reference will be coming soon! ─── ❀〖 Simple Personality 〗❀ ─── ♫ It’s just the way it is ♫ 〈+〉Clever, assertive, insightful/perceptive, determined, confident, charismatic, outgoing, adventurous, resourceful, helpful, meticulous, humorous 〈=〉Spontaneous, sociable/talkative, opinionated, image-conscious, dramatic, scrutinizing, obsessive, investigative, ambitious, sarcastic 〈-〉Demanding/bossy, judgmental, reckless, stubborn/obstinate, egotistical, manipulative, selfish, nosy, sensitive, irritable, gossipy, inattentive ─── ❀〖 A Social Butterfly 〗❀ ─── ♫ Smoky, dark, crowded room, I need nothing ♫ Charm is far from effortlessly perfect. Despite all her wild, stubborn theories and needlessly meticulous plans, she tends to make mistakes at every turn, constantly getting it wrong. Still, “perfect” is exactly the word she’d like to use to describe herself — and more importantly, the way she wants everyone /else/ to see her. She doesn’t truly believe she’s perfect — not completely. But she /is/ confident in that she deserves to be perfect. And so Charm moves through life determined to finally get things right, to prove her splendor to everyone else. With Charm’s confidence comes her demanding nature. She can be quite bossy, whether to siblings or friends, expecting others to do as she asks. Similarly, she is rather selfish, taking the best opportunities for herself without considering the desires of everyone else. She deserves the best, so why shouldn’t she have it? Furthermore, she tends to be judgmental of others, easily noting their faults to bolster her own (somewhat fragile) confidence. She derives her confidence not from an innate sense of worth, but from those around her. Yes, she deserves all there is to have, but everyone else needs to see that too. Otherwise, what value does that belief carry? It’s not enough to just be confident on her own. Instead, she is dependent on external validation to support her egoistical pride. Using her outgoing social confidence, Charm seeks to build the largest social network she can, creating a worthy reputation for herself. It can be difficult to do so, of course — especially considering her fallible tendencies. Still, she uses her talkative nature, charisma, and insight into others as best she can to reach her goals. Her desire for a high social reputation can also cause her to be rather manipulative, doing anything she can to make others like her. Somewhat resulting from her desire for popularity, Charm is quite image-conscious. She takes care of her appearance with meticulous detail, ensuring that every detail is in place. If she is to obtain the reputation she deserves, she must look flawless to all who come across her! She often uses accessories and flamboyant gestures to make herself stand out. It isn’t enough to just look impressive — she has to be memorable. Someone who can stick in someone’s mind long after they first meet her. She is quite ambitious in that way. At all costs, she /cannot/ be forgotten. ── ❀〖 A Detective of Secrets 〗❀ ── ♫ Under pink light in June ♫ While social networking is one way to establish a legacy, it is not the only way. In fact, one of Charm’s greatest obsessions is forming complex conspiracies and extravagant theories. She acts as the world’s detective as she searches for her next discovery. She is quite stubborn and opinionated in her theories, refusing to believe a word against them (no matter how ridiculous they are). Charm tries her best to convince everyone else (and herself) about the validity of her theories. She hopes that one day, she’ll find the perfect theory that ends up being true, bringing news of her renowned success across the territories. Charm’s investigations and her desire for popularity work hand in hand: if she forms a great theory, she will easily find the great reputation she desires. Likewise, with a large social network, she has many more threads to pull as she weaves her next meticulous theory. (continued in N&C)
(continued from Instructions) With Charm’s investigative nature comes her scrutinizing tendencies. She analyzes every detail of her life and the world around her, constantly searching for what might be even just slightly out of place. Similarly, she takes small things extremely seriously, easily spiraling into overthinking. One offhand sentence from an acquaintance could mean everything to her. What does it mean? Did their expression change just slightly as they said that? What are they hiding? She’d spend hours pouring over the meaning behind a single word, one the cat in question might not even remember saying. Even besides scrutinizing the reactions of others and the worlds around her, Charm tends to be very obsessive. She often fixates on a single person/thing, constantly thinking her latest obsession for quite some time. ─ ❀〖 An Overdramatic Whirlwind 〗❀ ─ ♫ I was so cool, but then all of a sudden ♫ Similarly to her scrutinizing, overthinking nature, Charm can be quite sensitive. She is easily hurt by even small comments, and likewise drawn to anger with her irritable nature. Her mood can change in a blink of an eye, from excited and enthusiastic to enraged and upset. In this way, she is very overdramatic. Her reactions are often far blown out of proportion to whatever caused it. Despite her sensitivity, Charm is quite assertive. She refuses to let an insult slide, whether it is about herself or to someone she cares about. Her mind changes nearly as quickly as her mood, so long as that change isn’t caused by someone else’s interfering opinions. While Charm remains obstinate in her own opinions, if /she/ is the one who decides something different, then of course she must be right. With a single new piece of evidence, she’s willing to scrap a theory that took moons to craft, so long as no one else tries to question her. ── ❀〖 A Collector of Secrets 〗❀ ── ♫ You saw me look at you ♫ Due to both her desire for popularity and her constant investigating, Charm can be rather nosy. She can often be found eavesdropping on conversations, trying to learn as much as she can about everyone and everything around her. How else is she to find the latest crucial piece of evidence for her theories? She must discover every secret there is to find. Besides, the more information about others she has, the more she can use to gain their attention. Unfortunately for others, Charm’s eavesdropped information easily finds its way across social circles due to Charm’s gossipy nature. She tends to excitedly share news with others, often exaggerating or exacerbating it to capture her audience’s interest. Anything to make sure their attention stays on her! Much of the time, this gossip comes through Charm sharing her investigations. She weaves overheard information into her theories, subsequently sharing it with others when she tries to convince them of her newest convictions. Though Charm’s gossipy nature isn’t intentional, she certainly spreads rumors, whether true or not. ─── ❀〖 Spontaneous Fun 〗❀ ─── ♫ I’d give up everything ♫ Charm is far from the most thoughtful cat you’ll ever meet, from her gossipy tendencies to her selfish demands. Still, she does enjoy being helpful when she can. If a stranger asked for her help in uncovering a mystery or gathering information about their enemy, she’d be there in an instant. Similarly, if she meets someone who can’t seem to make friends, she’d search endlessly through her social network until she could find the perfect match. She loves helping others achieve what she thinks she herself already has, whether that’s through her investigative “talents” or the reputation she’s tried to build for herself. If a little bit of fun is all you’re looking for, Charm would be glad to offer that as well. She’s always willing for an adventure, constantly seeking to experience more. She tends to be rather spontaneous in this way, swiftly changing course to explore an unfamiliar area or investigate something that catches her eye. Charm is often quite resourceful during these adventures, quickly finding solutions to problems she encounters along the way. Additionally, Charm’s always willing to brighten up the room with some humor. Her personal method of humor tends to be sarcasm, but any joke will do. She tends to laugh in any situation, smiling through whatever comes her way. However, Charm’s willingness for spontaneous adventure can often cause her to be reckless. Often, she neglects to consider the risks of a situation. If she does, it doesn’t take much for her to ignore them. After all, life to her is really just an exhilarating story, a cinematic film that’s never been made. Why not see where it goes? Whatever comes, Charm is /always/ ready to jump in the deep end. ───── ❀〖 Credits 〗❀ ───── ♫ To be close to you ♫ 〈 Writing 〉@evitanigami 〈 Character 〉@evitanigami 〈 Moodboard 〉@evitanigami 〈 Roleplay 〉The Four Clans Roleplay (TFCRP) 〈 Music 〉Close to You by Gracie Abrams
