TADC Lag Desc

Instructions

This is mainly for a TADC AU rp buuuuuut since Lag is know to have a TADC form I thought that I might as well give u his description and details and stuff :P (And dw, Glitch will probably get one too, but there's a limit of 1 character for the rp sooooooo Lag is free from Glitchy boi for now) Feel free to ask me about any of this or any other questions you may have! Appearance: Lag is a red hologram made up of different shades of red to differentiate colors. He looks a lot like an actual human... well, a cartoon human at least. Buuuuut that human-like appearance is gone when you look at his OTHER half. Lag is half-and-half character and abstraction. His left half is the abstracted side. Where his left eye would be, he has a big abstracted eye, clearly meant to be the main one of all the abstracted eyes. His mouth has jagged teeth on the abstracted side. Think Cheshire Cat with shark teeth. His "human" half wears jeans, sneakers, a hoodie torn at the elbows, and cartoonish gloves. His right eye appears in a cartoon "pac-man" shape. His "hair" is always messy too. Personality: Lag is... complicated. His personality can kinda be described as "a mix of Jax's and Ragatha's personalities with a little... something extra." He's a cocky, chaotic jokester who loves to make people laugh, playing pranks to keep people on their feet. Though, unlike Jax, he actually cares if he accidentally takes things too far and tries his best to set things right. When he sees someone feeling down, he'll make it his mission to see a smile on their face by the day's end. But, that's only to the people he cares about. Due to his past (further explained below), he's reluctant to trust people. When entering the circus, he'd probably be more the recluse, keeping largely to himself in fear of other people hurting him. If and when he DOES eventually trust people, he's TERRIFIED of hurting them. If he does end up doing so, he'll plaster a smile on his face and try to make up for it. That grin ends up fading the minute the other person leaves. He'll beat himself up for even causing the problem in the first place, repeating three things over and over again: "ALL MY FAULT..." "NOT GOOD ENOUGH..." "M O N S T E R" Traits (possibly unique for some): - Obviously, half abstracted - Can communicate with abstracted cast easily, though that doesn't guarantee what they say will make sense - Walks with a limp, but still manages to remain agile - About 5'10" to 6 feet tall - Enjoys singing (though he doesn't sing around others) - His hologram and abstracted side do different things depending on how he is feeling (glitching out, getting staticky, etc.) - Protective (depending on who it is) Fears: - Hurting those he cares about - Mirrors - Being called "monster" - Losing control - Showing how much he's hurting inside - Isolation - Insanity - Failure Lore (I just thought this all up, pls no hate-): Lag is an orphan who grew up having to support himself and his brother. An incident happened that caused his brother to run away for his safety. This involved Glitch, someone who tends to manipulate Lag A LOT. Glitch caused Lag to go on rampages of carnage and mass destruction. Glitch provided him the tools to do so. Lag blames himself for everything that happened, saying that he was gullible to fall for Glitch's tricks. Lag, full of regret, isolated himself for about half a year to a year. When he finally reached out for other people, he found several people whom he had made "friends" with. Almost all of them took advantage of him and stabbed him in the back. This prompted him to be less trusting with almost everyone, catching himself a few times trying to be welcoming in desperation to have at least SOMEONE he could trust. All of this, and he still wore a smile for the sake of the few people he had left. Those people accidentally triggered him from time to time, causing him to lash out at them. They were understanding, but Lag still hated himself for it. He started being protective of them to busy himself and potentially stopping himself from lashing out at them (a foolish idea). When he eventually enters the circus (by accident or lure), he panics, saying that he has to be there for the people he has left so he can protect them from what he's caused for them (preferable that Caine if anyone is the only person to hear this). The cause of his half-abstraction would either be by being left in the Void or the Cellar too long (this combined with his already established panic). (Lemme know if any of this need to be changed, ik it's crappy at best) Quotes bc why not: "Hah! Did ya like the PUNCHline?" "Wow, I'm absolutely TERRIBLE at this-" "Oops, my bad! Here, I'll clean this mess up." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey. Listen to me. Don't panic. We'll get through this. Panicking won't help us do that." "OI! B[GLOINK!]! WHAT THE HECK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!?" "...why me? WHY ME!? JUST WHY!?" "Oh- haha, hey! I-I didn't notice you there! You didn't see that, right?"
