DESCRIPTION:
<: Physical Stature and Appearance// Fizzlebeef is a towering giant of a man, clocking in at 315 pounds and 6 feet 3 inches tall. He sports a short hairstyle that tends to stick up ever so slightly the closer to his forehead it gets - but only in the center. It's almost like a fauxhawk that didn't commit to looking as "metrosexual" as the hairstyle's famous progenitors. In addition to his indecisive hair, Fizzlebeef also has mutton chops for facial hair, though he's added his own personal touch. The end of his mutton chops split into two-pronged forks; the lower prongs outline his chin while the upper prongs stretch upward towards the corners of the tip of his nose. His face is fairly pudgy and rounded, his eyes soft. His has a wide, long nose, with a scar across it leading from one cheekbone to the other. His ears are almost disproportionately small and shaped like the wings of a butterfly. His gut hasa surprising lack of prominence despite generally only wearing one layer of clothing. Speaking of which, he tends to wear clothing that gives off a vintage feeling- and no, not vintage as in 1950s. Vintage as in the Medieval 800s and 900s.
<: Earthly Apparel// He wears a sea blue polo with rough cloth wraps around his wrists. He replaced the polo's buttons with a thick braided string cross-weaved into the neck, not too different from what you would find in a tunic. Sewn onto the left arm of his polo is an arm-bracer or sleeve made of red scales. His jeans are zipper-less, and stay around his waist with help from little more than a tie-able hempen rope woven into the waist's inseam. For footwear he often chooses calf-high leather boots fitted with large furs. His favorite pair also include braided fur knee pads that attach to the boot via velcro. He also often wears a leather shoulder cape that gives him an air of a wanderer. The cape is fastened just above his left shoulder with a large gold pin. The pin itself is monogrammed with the image of a star inside the curve of a crescent moon.
<: Infernal Apparel// In Inferis, Fizzlebeef's physical stature remains the same. However, his rampant imagination begins to takes form here, which can radically transform his clothing into nearly anything he can think of - that is not functionally a suit of armor. He currently has no way to take advantage of this ability as he does not know it exists, so for now his clothes in Inferis match those he wears on Earth.

PERSONALITY:
<: Benelovent Spirit// Often described as too nice by his peers, Roll has a good (or bad, depending on perspective) habit of assuming the best in people, and thus goes out of his way to help others. He wears his heart on his sleeve, and his charitable nature is outdone by his naivety alone. He can tend to be a bit shy if someone tries to get to know him on a more personal level, but with a simple acquaintanceship he can be a much-needed breath of fresh air. His shyness can be quite easily overcome if you give him food, but most of his little circle of friends decided to let him be shy "because it's cute." Roll has little TRUE experience with how the world works, and what little tastes he has taken have only driven the dreamer in him to make more of a difference.

<: Dreamer Complex// As mentioned earlier, Roll Fizzlebeef is very much a dreamer. His imagination runs wild at every opportunity and loves self-expression. He will often get lost in thought if something piques his interest, and is curious by nature. Roll has a habit of questioning everything that is presented to him in an effort to understand it better. Many people mistake this as being argumentative. He also has a more difficult time separating fantasy from reality than some other people might - he insists on building entire fantasy lives in his head, and prepared most of his life for his dreams to come true some day. He has a hard time "conforming to the norm" and has developed a thick skin from all the teasing or insulting he dealt with as a kid. This also applies to his name; while he feels it is a bit... awkward, he also sees it as his as his very first birthday gift from his parents and refuses to change it.

<: Thrill Seeker and Competitive Nature// Tying into the fact that he is a hopeless dreamer, Fizzlebeef has an unrequitted love for adventure, combat, and all the glory that come with them. He is ALWAYS ready for an adventure, and even more-so a duel, spar, or even fight for his life. The rush of excitement, the adrenaline pumping through his veins, this... THIS is his true home away from home - the dungeons, the dragons, the money and the glory... He lives for the challenge, for the graceful parries, the epic confrontations. He could never turn a duel down, because winning is in his blood. He's got everything to prove, and such little time to prove it. He NEEDS to, for his himself... and his family. He wouldn't dare mention any of this to even his closest friends, though he would have absolutely no qualms soaking up the spotlight when it's time to fight!

<: Naivety, With a Touch of Self-Righteousness// His recent exposure to Inferis has served him a cold dish of reality, of a sort. He has middling knowledge of Demons and Templars, but sees them as two groups in a very gray scenario trying instead to see it as black and white. He acknowledges the blatant evil of the Demons and wishes to seal the barrier between their world and his. That said, he hardly approves of the Templar Order's cloak-and-dagger approach, much less their supposed habit of shooting first and asking questions later.


<: Infernal Desires// Given that Fizzlebeef's mind is his greatest weapon, it is also his greatest weakness when crossing planes. Given his limited exposure to Inferis and novice experience with his evocations, he finds it difficult to resist Inferis' effects on his mind - namely, he grows more destructive, hateful, distrusting, and lustful. This is not a solid 180 turn-around for him, though - these are urges that he simply has difficulty resisting, though at times they can take over him.

HISTORY:

Early Childhood:

Teenage Years and the Discovery of Inferis:

Young Adulthood and Evocations:

FACTION:
Freelance, for the moment.

REAL-LIFE SKILLS:
<:1 Strength// Fizzlebeef is physically inclined, and can lift slightly more weight than the average person, able to bench press 250lbs without exerting himself to the point of exhaustion for example. He himself is quite heavy as well, and depending on the situation can use this to his advantage.
<:2 Self-Proclaimed Swordsman// Fizzlebeef's wild imagination has led him to teach himself the use of swordplay. While he may not be properly trained, he has some measure of aptitude and can use anything with a bladed edge as a weapon quite proficiently, albeit not masterfully.
<:3 Font of Creativity// Fizzlebeef is extremely creative, which helps him decipher solutions to all sorts of problematic issues or situations. Otherwise, it's just good for coming up with ideas for whatever he happens to want ideas for. Like a new flavor for... something... with flavors!
<:4 He Loves Reese's Puffs// "It has 9 essential vitamins and minerals, Mom!"

INFERIS SKILLS:
<:1 Double-Vault// Fizzlebeef gains the inexplicable and largely useless ability to "double jump" by kicking his feet under him in a midair somersault, producing a magickal air pocket that propels him further into the air. Some people might find it amusing to watch him do this, considering it defies nearly everything people perceive about "big" people.
<:2 Elemental Scion// Fizzlebeef's Evocation(s) give him the passive ability to resist the debilitating and injuring effects of the elements he can control, albeit not completely. At first, this "skill" will be nearly non-existent; over time, however, it will get stronger with each elemental evocation he gains. For example, with one ice-related evocation, he would only resist 5 degrees below freezing (speaking in Celcius) without suffering frostbite or hypothermia. This would cap at -25 degrees Celcius, with five ice- or cold-manipulative evocations. This could be used in many various ways, including holing himself up in a walk-in freezer. Why he would want to do that... well I would guess it has to do with food. THE GLORIOUS, GLORIOUS FOOD! FOOD EVERYWHERE ALL OVER HIS BODY.
<:3 Hypothetical Badassery// Fizzlebeef's over-fondness for combat infuses into his body within Inferis. While within its boundaries, he can use weapons as if he was professionally trained, as long as he can imagine the techniques in his head. In short, his imagination directly translates into martial skill. (There is a limit to this; it cannot be used to increase his strength or other physical attributes - including reaction time.)

WEAKNESSES:
<:1 But It's So Yummy// Fizzlebeef ABSOLUTELY LOVES COOKIES has an abnormal affinity for food, and can be easily baited or bribed with anything yummy and scrumptious.
<:2 ...But Then He took An Arrow In The Knee// Fizzlebeef's talents, revolving mostly around ice and/or electricity, can be "disarmed" figuratively speaking, by destroying or disabling his weapons with the proper element. Ice would melt against fire's bite, rendering it into a splash of water which may or may not be useful given the situation. Electrical attacks can be grounded and rendered mundane or dissipated if parried with a rubber object or other insulation material.
<:3 I'm Not Fat, I'm FLUFFY//  Roll Fizzlebeef is quite a big fellow, to put it nicely. He isn't perhaps the most agile or quickest person of his age bracket, and this could hamper him in a multitude of ways, including tiring somewhat easily.

COLOURS:
Fizzle thinks in italic Poop and talks mostly in teal English, but can also read, write and speak in white Spanish as well. He has the ability to speak and understand red Demonic, but speaking it is an occurrence he cannot control consciously, often doing so only when exposed to it.

TRIVIA:

<: The Dungeons and Dragons Effect// Fizzlebeef's love of video games, books, and anything fantasy lead him to kind of go off in his own little world at times. He has a habit of talking on and on about something as if everyone knows what he is talking about, when in fact the opposite is true.
<: La Lala Lala~// Fizzlebeef tends to hum a lot, whichever songs happens to be stuck in his head. Closely related to this, he also imagines his favorite songs playing in the background during his adventures, especially during battle. What a nerd!
<: Sensory Deception// Fizzlebeef's mind is both advanced and debilitated in the single fact that he can comprehend all languages as one - in his case, English. This is good for him because he rarely has problems speaking and understanding languages he knows. (Writing is a different story - he can only write in English and Spanish.) There is a downside to this however - precisely because he comprehends everything in English, he cannot tell when he is hearing or speaking a different language. He thus does not know that angels and demons both have their own tongue they speak in. He is aware of this disorder due the large presence of multiple tongues in the States, but it doesn't rise to the forefront of his mind very often.
<: Fuck You, Megaman// Fizzlebeef goes by his last name; his first name is never spoken of. EVER. Much less compared to that of Megaman's not-girlfriend Roll. If this connection is ever mentioned, Fizzlebeef will grow uncharacteristically hateful and violent unless justice has been done, or someone feeds him a raspberry cheesecake flavored cookie [which is only available from Subway, so prepare to shell out some cash unless you want someone to DIE]. And unfortunate side effect of Fizzlebeef's rampaging is that he turns chibi, making it really, REALLY hard to take his anger seriously. (He never gets violent with his video game controllers though - those are expensive and valuable limited edition Halo 4/Gold Chrome/Blue Chrome/customized Dragon's Dogma controllers! They're speshul to him.)
<: Silly Fizzle, Beef is for Cakes// Fizzlebeef becomes EXTREMELY introverted and shy if someone watches him in battle and then compliments him afterward or confronts him about his secret "adrenaline junkie" side. He will slowly return to normal after a few hours when the topic has since then been changed.
<: Fourth Wall? What Fourth Wall?// Fizzlebeef's absolute favorite game in the universe is Dragon's Dogma; ironically, the same game most of his character is based on. He has the inexplicable (and quite silly) habit of referencing this from time to time.
<: GIRL POWAH// ...Because his second favorite game is Final Fantasy X-2. "The FF community is full of idiots; I for one LOVED the dressphere system and thought it was quite unique and refreshing. *sassy huff*"
<: Oh Romeo, Romeo, Where Art Thou Romeo?// Fizzlebeef has the bad habit of letting himself go when he's alone. You're probably thinking birthday suit couch potato playing video games and staining his belly with soda and cheese puff powder. Well... maybe that's partially true, but I'm more talking about the fact that he will act as if he is locked in open combat with some imaginary entity. He will swing various objects wildly as if to ward off invisible feral creatures trying to nest in his living room. He often "pushes pause" to look out his window (or close said window) to make sure nobody is watching him. If someone catches him doing this, which nobody has - yet - he would turn redder than a tomato and promptly faint from a mixture of shock and embarrassment. He would also cease to be able to function in any sort of normal parameter in said person's presence for the rest of time and avoid them like the Bubonic Plague.
<: THE ULTIMATE BATTLE OF ULTIMATE DESTINY!// Fizzlebeef, being competitive by nature, could never turn down any sort of contest. He will keep it fair to the best of his ability, but he will use all the tools at his disposal . He also, NEVER underestimates anyone. Even children, he will treat as if they have some sort of secret they are hiding that could end his chance to win the contest unless. (The only exception to this is if he is training the other contestant - then he goes easy on them in the spirit of positive reinforcement.) And god forbid he notice his opponent(s) cheating... then ALL the stops are pulled, he goes all-freaking-out in a personal vendetta to end you and your wrongful cheating! (He also secretly hopes to participate in the paradoxical contest for ultimate badass supremacy spoken of only in musical legends.)
<: Suddenly, Mood Rings// Fizzlebeef has the largely useless ability to make his eyes glow purple. He uses this purely for personal amusement either to freak people out or pretend he's psychic, screaming "FEAR ME!" like a silly goose has a strange "chaos" gene that changes his normally blue eye color depending on his emotions much like a mood ring while within the confines of Inferis. He theorizes it was attached to his demon hunter gene (hence, Inferis), and can - with a lot of effort - purposefully change it to a particular color. That is difficult for him however as it requires him to act so convincingly that even he himself might believe his lie. The list of colors and their triggers, for reference, is below:
Blue: Calm or Happy
Brown: Worried or Nervous
Green: Sad or Scared
Purple: Angry or Apathetic/Detached
Red:  Confused or Stressed
Yellow: Smitten or Excited
Black: Unconscious or Dead - If his eyes dilate in this state, there is the potential that one would not be able to see the white sclera of his eyes, making them appear completely black.
Rapidly Changes: Disoriented, experiencing multiple emotions or otherwise only partially conscious - in this state, each eye will randomly cycle through the six colors on its own, fading into a new color each second - they will not match up except by random chance. If it is happening because he is experiencing multiples emotions, it will only cycle through colors that match those emotions. For example, if he is both angry and stressed out, they will only switch back and forth between purple and red.



ALIAS:
Um, well, lesse. Obsidian, Zerahnor (Zera), Lunar Magister.... any of those would work. I would prefer Zera at this point, but Obs or Obi would work fine as well.

OTHER CHARACTERS:
Absolutely none at all at the time of this draft. NEWBS UNITE!

ROLEPLAY HISTORY:
I probably have about 3 years of roleplaying experience, though it's a bit choppy and placed in fragments throughout the last 5 or so.

FACECLAIM:

Code:

[b]Dragon's Dogma[/b] :: [b]The Arisen/Player Character[/b]

[[I'm not entirely sure I need this, seeing as the Arisen is technically a "liquid" character with no true canonical look or personality, but I'll still stick it in anyway for Faceclaim of Safety reasons]]

CUSTOM RANK:
THE FIZZLED MAN-BEEF
[[Because YES.]]

Archive date is June 24th.

Ob - you've got one day left. Nudge me over PM or Skype if you want an extension.

Extended at Ob's behest to July 8th.

REVISE

Hokay, just a few points - good, engaging application otherwise, the effort's showing through and the Fizzled Man-Beef will be an excellent addendum to the cast of DM. Just some tweaks you gotta make:

1] Appearance: Whilst in Inferis, clothing can change and potentially modify, but if it becomes too defensible, that's Evocation territory, so in regards to "anything up to a full suit of armour", you may want to rethink this.

2] History:

Much to his surprise, there was indeed a tear near the outskirts of New York City.

Nope. Can't happen, there are ten existent canon tears, and they are in London, the Vatican, Washington D.C., Rio de Janeiro, Johannesburg, Irkutsk, Helsinki, Hong Kong, Rome, and Barcelona. None other exist.

3] Skills: Elemental Scion: You're going to have to be careful that this doesn't come to become too overpowered and Evocation quality in itself, which means a cut-off point. He will never be completely immune to any element unless it's a defensive Evocation constructed; and it might be worth thinking about bringing these elemental shields in as additional notes under the Evocations app, too.

4] Languages: Considering Angels haven't broached Inferis yet, it's kind of implausible for him to be able to even understand Angelic having never heard it...

5] Trivia: Eye Colour: Could you just clarify that this is only active in Inferis? It's kind of infeasible for this to be a genetic mutation, especially one that acts so volatile, concerning alleles and other stuff, et cetera et cetera. I could bore you with genetics studies and justification, but the simplest thing to do here is to have this only function in Inferis.

Everything else is fine - just fix those and we should be good to go, Ob!

FIZZLE THE MAN-BEEF.
