Character Information~ [ Series ] – Original Character (Final Fantasy VII) [ Character’s Name ] – Duran [ Character’s Element ] – Air & Wood [ Teacher or Student? ] – Student [ Character Profile ] – Duran does not -consciously- remember much of his past, but for elusive fragments, resurfacing as fleeting nightmares or dreams. All of which he is never certain were ever real---Quite likely the result of a form of post-traumatic stress. Brooding and consistently unpredictable in persona. He suffered. But knows it not as 'suffering'. He holds an 'obscure' outlook of the world. He is prone to extreme shifts in mood, or, long -utterly nondescript- moments alternately. [ Appearance ] – 18 years old and 5'9" tall, House of Fenrir, First Year student. Duran has incredibly pale silvery-violet eyes, so pale, they almost look as if blinded somehow... Shaped like walnuts, squished, in an almost catlike way. His pupils vaguely resemble diamonds and possess a vague dark blue/red hue to them. His stare is cool and intense. Duran's hair is roughly around shoulder length; wild curly/waves of blood and fire (In deep/vibrant shades of all natural reds.) mingling with sleek -straight- marbled locks of both dark and light. Duran's face is slightly angular; but smooth and almost more 'rounded off'. His mouth is usually set in an -mostly- straight line/expression. His lips are thinly-full and rich enough in color, with his skin fair but textured, and something like chocolate milk with extra milk in its tone. Some of the skin on his face, when examined closely, appears as if scarred somehow. He has an almost button nose; but with a strong bridge. The line of his jaw is also strong enough, his chin defined, but his face -over all- very soft in effect/appearance. He is not overtly muscled; but what muscle he does have is well toned. He is of an average/athletic sort of body-type/build in general. He usually dresses in coats (with lots of pockets) and loose fitting pants (somewhere between cargo pants and bondage pants) of canvas, felt, jean or satin materials. Often times his clothes will possess many buttons, straps, and buckles - for the aesthetic appeal - both sound and visual. (Usually involving metal and/or leather.) At times he will wear something about his waist/lower-torso. (belts, a sash, or stomacher : that sort of thing) Although, often times, he would wear the school uniforms more often than required. [ Personality ] – Duran is a 'still' sort of person... Quiet only in the sense that he is of little words and not very big on 'social activity'. (Which is something he comprehends in functionality - But can't truly 'relate to' on much of a personal level.) But behind that still and composure lies a dark and calculative mind, an observative and pensive soul, and twisted feeling with a fair share of attitude. He is very withdrawn, as if in his own world somehow, but -silently- is very opinionated on matters not of his own world. Because he's so introspective in his extrospective nature, though often intensely expressive in thought, such things are rarely acted upon as more than the slightest ripple. He generally keeps to himself, if he can at all help it, but his preference/choice in attire suggests/demonstrates that he is anything but diminutive.... If anything; he -perhaps- overcompensates (just a little) from time to time. Despite any deep rooted psychological issues he is very confident in himself; even if he is incredibly cautious. He may seem meek; but never timid. There are times when he appears easily cowed--- And others where he openly sports a dark and dangerous mindset. He easily appears 'fierce' or cold and utterly distant alternately(and the same with a subtle optimism or grave cynicism/depression); indicating he may suffer schizophrenia or/and bi-polar disorder. He can be both (very nearly eerily so) 'steady' or totally instable/unstable. He's not fond of strangers, and though he will speak with them quite politely, his body language can come off pretty oppressively at first impression. [ History ] – Born to his loving mother; a young intern at ShinRa Inc... Duran is the bastard son of President Shinra; naught but an hour or so younger than Rufus - the two might have been twins if not for having come of separate mothers. Rufus and Duran were close childhood friends---if only for a fleeting season prior to Duran's exportation to the black market and laboratories/experimental militia. The death of Rufus' mother, the disappearance of Duran's also, and then the abduction of Duran himself... All these events were connected - A fact which was long since obscured and forgotten - Buried deep from the world. The arrangement to all but erase Duran was a simple one, Duran could be used for anything without fear of repercussions upon death, and ShinRa Co. wouldn't blow the whistle on those particular - less than reputable - markets/projects. Duran would be lost, no questions asked (meaning - without out ever having the knowledge that Duran was of illegitimate ShinRa blood) in exchange for Shinra silence, in affect losing the connection between "why" and Duran himself. Duran's mind and body were kept sharp and cultivated enough to insure he survived as long as possible. Though treated as nothing more than a sort of 'testing grounds' preamble which paved the way for any actual experimentation/production to be opened... He was not expected to live. Occasionally he served other forms of gratification/satisfaction along the way. Once he no longer possessed enough 'clarity'/'purity' (of any sense of the words) to properly test on without confusing matters..... He changed hands often, and with each new set of hands, his exact/specific purpose was also altered. But no matter what 'job' he was given to fill -or fulfill- there were usually two things required always; To be emotionally unreachable and hold great adaptability. Eventually he was held and later abandoned by a source whom the authorities had sniffed out and been trailing. When they moved to apprehend the source they found instead a Duran all alone. For a short while they(the authorities) kept him in relative seclusion, trying to reach and soothe him, via sterile and country environments... Until they felt he was ready to begin assimilation into the real world within an actual - but relatively more controlled/supervised environment, than say, a big city - and shipped him off to school. Duran would arrive at Dusk Academy with mixed feelings/opinions toward the idea/place and no expectations of his own. He still had trouble grasping his previous life as 'wrong' as it was all he remembered/knew and therefore did not understand the concept that placed him in the educative system. The one thing he dared hope was that here he would be able to learn their logic/reasons... But upon arrival he would feel estranged and somewhat overwhelmed. [ Pets ] – None. [ Other ? ] – Duran carries two bladed weapons. One; a sharpened reverse-blade katana. The other; a chinese sword with an abstractly serrated edge. He'd procured these in secret under the neglectful nose of his last 'master'. They were confiscated from him for a time but later returned. Duran starts off as -for the most part- Asexual; without sexual desire or interest---But really, it's just his mind is far to calculative / that he is much to 'controlled', to react in such a manner under any such 'ordinary' situations/advances. It was 'trained'/'programmed' out of him long ago almost before it was ever 'born'. In later days he was re-expanded and taught to... 'accommodate' ...such 'needs' (on some occasions even with experimental intent) but still never achieved the real/true 'need' for such fulfillment himself. It was simply to much in conflict with his earlier experiences. And the extent and range of various experimentation to which he was subjected eventually 'broke him down' in a way that assimilated itself almost like an immunity/nullification of several sorts. But who knows what could happen as he's introduced to things beyond the scape of that. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
