☄ First Impressions

♚ VISUAL: Percy is physically average if you discount the fact that he has stark-white hair and dresses like nobility and always carries a rifle on his back. But I mean physically... He's mostly lean muscle with very little in the way of strength.
♚ FASHION: Percy dresses extremely well in blues, lavenders, whites, golds, and silver. This is a pretty good idea of how he looks. His cloak- Cabal's Ruin- crackles with harmless arcane lightning on the underside. He wears special glasses that have magnifying glasses attached to the top.
♚ DEMEANOUR: He's nobility. He holds himself with poise.
♚ SOUND: Percy speaks with a posh "Whitestonian" accent, which is really just a reserved pronunciation British accent. He sounds very dry most of the time, but can get pretty excitable when faced with some bit of nerdery. He can also sound very, very cold. His "I'm very serious and will fuck you up" voice is a thing of legend. But mostly he sounds like a full of himself little shit. Here's some good clips of him.
♚ SCENT: No matter how nice he tries to keep himself smelling, he will always smell significantly of gunpowder and a little bit of ozone depending on if he's charged Diplomacy lately.
♚ MENTAL INFORMATION: Percy is a fucked up person, man. He is a broken bag of glass trying to slowly piece himself back together. He spends a lot of time thinking terrible thoughts and not always voicing them. Percy unfiltered with telepathy is probably just a series of unfortunate thoughts.
♚ MAGICAL INFORMATION: Though he's had almost every trace of Orthax removed from him, the fact that he can use magic at all is essentially Orthax's "stain" left on him, but since it doesn't read as grossbadwrong to people with holy abilities, it's likely impossible to tell that his access to his three spells came from a demon. The shadowy smoke tendrils form his Hex ability takes is a little weird though.

☄ OOC

♚ BACKTAGGING: Yes.
♚ FOURTHWALLING: Since Critical Role is sort of niche, I'd rather not.
♚ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: People in his family didn't touch, but he's been around a lot of touchy-feely people so it's not like he's adverse to it, but he's not likely to respond in kind unless he knows you.
♚ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: He's a goddamn dungeons and dragons character, so yeah. Go for it.
♚ RELATIONSHIPS: Percy is kind of harboring a crush on a certain party member, and it took ages to get him to a point where he could even allow himself to feel that way, so if there's anything that might drag his attention away from his future wife, it's gonna take a long-ass fucking time. Assume it's a no.

However, please make friends with this sad nerd, even if he's a hard nut to crack. He can be friendly in a little shit way! He's just you know... too goth to function.
