Inactive Characters / Tork Addar
« on: July 21, 2018, 04:43:35 pm »
Name:Tork Addar
Nickname(s):None (yet)
Gender:Male
Age:24
Species:Fish monster
Height:6'1"/(roughly) 1.85 meters.
Scent:Raw fish and cigarette smoke, with a hint of Echo Flower.
Magic/Power:- Cutlass: Tork can summon his weapon - a cutlass formed from magic, with a Delta Rune engraved on either side of the blade - to his hand. He can only summon one at a time. It has decent strength, for someone fairly inexperienced with actual combat. He can also turn the weapon orange, making it slightly more powerful but allowing his opponent to pass through it harmlessly if they move.

- Flintlock: Another weapon formed from magic that he can summon to his hand. It has the appearance of an antique gun from pirate times. He can fire balls of energy from the gun, at roughly 1 shot/second. This weapon is a bit weaker than the cutlass, but still all-around decent. He can also turn this weapon orange, making the shots larger but also allowing one to simply move through them, like with the cutlass.

- Cannons: A sort of "special attack," he doesn't use this one often due to simply how much energy it requires. Two cannons form from magic, directly next to him on both sides. They aim at his opponent before both fire a 3 second continuous beam of destructive energy simultaneously. It's the most powerful weapon in his artillery, however, he's very easily worn out by this move, so he only uses it during emergencies.

- Unending Bravery: Unknown? (Will be PMed to staff - it isn't going to be a major thing yet, however it will spring up at some point. He won't be using it until then, most likely.)
Soul Trait:Bravery.
Occupation:He's a sentry in Waterfall, currently making efforts to join the Royal Guard, though he's not part of it yet. Since he's just a sentry, he doesn't really hold much authority in Waterfall - especially given Undyne herself often does work in this province - but he is expected to keep an eye out for - and try to stop - humans if spotted, and if something big happens he is still expected to help in any way that he can.
Residence:Waterfall (formerly the Capital).
Speech Color:"Talking: Red Orange/#ff4500"
Thinking: Dark Orange/#FF8C00
Description:Tork is a fish monster with light blue scales. He has short, sort of messy sea-green hair. He's got yellow eyes that turn orange when using his magic, and a ski-slope nose. His teeth are a faded yellow color, sharp and similar in appearance to a piranha's. Physically, he appears fairly fit, though not out-and-out muscular.

Often times, he's wearing a dark blue beanie, a black leather jacket over a dark orange sweatshirt, and blue jeans, with black boots. In Snowdin, he exchanges his jacket for a similarly-colored faux-fur winter coat. In Hotland, he ditches his jacket entirely and wears a bright orange tank top.


About:In most circumstances, Tork is very friendly, willing to lend a hand whenever needed. He tries to be kind to others, despite his tendencies for sarcasm. He's sort of laid back, when he's not actually doing sentry work. He generally appears fairly cheery, even in more bleak circumstances. And, finally, he's a bit of a flirt. By which I mean, he flirts with almost everyone he meets at least once (sometimes jokingly, sometimes not).

Unfortunately, his cheery demeanor is just a facade. In truth, he's got a lot of built up anger and sadness, between his mother having fallen down due to illness barely a year ago, and some other events involving his past. And he's very, very worried about getting his place in the Royal Guard, given the risk he's already taken in his pursuit of the position - that is, quitting a secure, safe job in the Capital and moving to Waterfall to become a Sentry(and, from there, a guardsman) - combined with his family's already-present history of being warriors(a legacy which he wishes to uphold). He has a bad habit of bottling up his emotions for amounts of time that couldn't possibly be healthy.

Who knows. One day, something could happen to break that habit.
Miscellaneous:- Basic training on how to use his magic was provided by his mother, otherwise self-trained.
- Was a fast food chef in the Capital.
- British accent.
- How his magic takes form (the cutlass, flintlock, and cannons) is all hereditary - previous members of his family who had found themselves in the Royal Guard, too, were seen wielding such weapons. (Notably, however, he's the first one with orange magic in his family tree.)
- As implied by his scent, he smokes.
- Also implied by his scent, where his house is, there's also a bunch of Echo Flowers on the outside. He often spends a bunch of time out there practicing his magic, too, hence how he's spent enough time out there to get the scent on him.
- His house is similar to Undyne's, colored orange, but instead of just walking straight into a single room, there's a hallway. Living room to the left, kitchen to the right, and bedroom straight ahead.
- Sometimes checks the junkyard for Surface stuff, if he isn't already busy with sentry business or anything like that.

Brief Biography:Since he was young, Tork has always wanted to be a Royal Guardsman. His mother had been a Royal Guardsman, but quit shortly after Tork was born to take care of him. The same could be said of her father - Tork's grandfather - or even his father before him. Basically, to make this quick, Tork comes from a line of Royal Guardsmen, and already had ambitions set on becoming one himself. An event in his past lead to him re-considering his choice, and for a time, he ended up deciding to forget about being a Royal Guardsman entirely, instead getting a relatively mundane job flipping burgers at a small-scale fast food chain in the Capital.

Some time passes, and eventually - roughly UUY -3 - the idea of becoming a Royal Guardsman pops back into his head. After a discussion with his mother, he ultimately ends up getting basic training for his magic before quitting his job, moving all the way to Waterfall, and becoming a sentry. From here, he planned on self-training and joining the Royal Guard. However, that's also when his happy facade began, though less a facade then as it is now - he was finally pursuing his dream, but the memory of the past events that lead to him choosing to forget about the idea also returned.

Since then, roughly a year before his story here began(UUY -1, for reference when we're out of UUY 1), his mother had fallen down due to illness. This is the first thing that actually managed to make him stop pretending to be happy, if only for a few days. After that, the faking came back stronger than before.

It's been a year since and here he is now, still training, still preparing to become a Royal Guard himself.
