would someone care to classify
would someone care to classify
Nickname(s): Jonathan, God of Deception, God of Lies, God of Tricks
Gender: Male
Race: God
Age: He's lost count and doesn't like to talk about it much. A very long time.
Sexuality: Demisexual
Face: Yoshiya "Joshua" Kiryu - The World Ends With You/Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance
our broken hearts and twisted minds
Likes: Being in control, having a plan, manipulating people, jokes/pranks, being able to trust in people
Dislikes: Not being in control, others tricking him, those he cares about in danger or hurting, fire (he tries to stay calm but really he's scared of it), having to take responsibility
Strengths: Quick thinker, can see through lies, immortal, comes up with easy and believable lies
Flaws: Tries to shut out most emotions and has trouble accepting his and others', hard for him to tell the truth, will lie to anyone, is physically weak
General Personality: On the plus side, Jonathan seems like a very carefree person. Nothing seems to faze him, and he can work through almost any situation with ease. He's stubborn. He's intelligent definitely, that trait coming from many years of experience in the world. Though he may look like a brat that's too big for his britches, anyone who looks at his mind will realize that that assumption is dead wrong. He barely shows strong emotions other than glee or satisfaction, or brief disappointment. But most of that is just a lie.
Being God of Deception, he's gotten good at decieving everyone, including sometimes himself. He does feel emotions, but will stubbornly try not to show them, keeping them on the inside. He's lonely deep inside, but too cold on the outside to show it. About most people, he doesn't care. They live, they die, all so quickly. He can be cruel to them on a whim. But anyone he's close to he protects fiercely, even if they never know it. Hurt them, and he'll destroy you.
He's a manipulator. He lies more often than not to anyone. He'll do anything to get his way. And he has no problem with doing it.
so i can find someone to rely on
Basic Appearance: In the Divine Realm, Jonathan has very pale skin, violet eyes that glow just a bit, and stunning silver hair that's long and slightly curled. There, he also has his wings, huge white wings with soft feathers. In the mortal realm however, it's different. he doesn't have wings, his eyes don't glow, and he looks a bit more human. There, his hair is blonde instead of silver and his skin is a little more tanned. His eyes are still violet. However, he's skinny, even going so far as to be a little too skinny to be healthy. His appearance makes him look like he's in his late twenties.
Preferred Clothing: Something loose and comfortable. Though it may be fun, getting attention for his looks isn't always the best thing in the world for a god.
Starting Weapons/Powers: His powers are illusions meant to decieve and the webs of lies he weaves with his mouth. Otherwise, he carries no weapons. He doesn't need them.
Family: All dead. He tries to forget them. That doesn't really work though.
History: Jonathan remembers being human, though he tries to forget.
Human was not a happy time for him. He was raised in a wealthy, noble family (wealthy for that time period anyway). The youngest of three siblings (oldest a brother and middle child a sister), he was often overlooked by both parents. His siblings were a few years older than he was and never paid him much attention. They would get the inheritance, while he'd be left with almost nothing. They had all the friends, and he was the outcast. By age ten, he was the sickly one who was always in bed, and other kids avoided him (this turned out to be because of a genetic disease that wouldn't be named for centuries. He was worthless, in others' eyes and his own. He'd amount to nothing, probably wouldn't even live a full life. That made him angry. But he didn't throw things or yell. He planned.
First it was little things. Lying to little kids to make them give him candy, small white lies. Then it grew. Those kids who picked on him, he spread twisted stories about them to the innocent kids who would come visit his parents, or his older siblings' children. He strated to grow stronger and could finally leave his room, and nobody paid him any attention. So the lies became tricks. There were still lies, but chickens would go missing, only to end up in baskets on roofs. The neighbor's best clothes would end up on the cow. At first it was funny, but they grew crueller. People laughed at his jokes, but they still insulted him. He grew colder, not showing how much that hurt. And the tricks became colder, crueler, more dangerous. Convincing others to do dangerous stuff, being satisfied when it succeeds as planned, being disappointed when it doesn't, no matter the consequences.
His last trick was the only one to fail. During a storm, he'd left something metal on his roof. The house caught fire. His parents escaped, but he was left inside, struggling to breathe and too dizzy from the smoke to move. Nobody bothered to come save him.
When he awoke in the Divine Realm, he was different. Still thin, but no longer sick, and so powerful. For years, he 'haunted' his hometown. But that lost its allure after a while. Generations passed, and they no longer remembered him. So he took his human form, albeit healthier, and traveled. Pulling tricks on a whim, not taking responsibility, and growing colder. But he's no longer as cruel. Especially after meeting Neku and making his first friend in the process. Neku is one of the few people he trusts, and he dreads the day he knows will come when Neku will die and he'll be alone again.
