Nadia | Hawk

[notquitetamed]

Contact: Nadia#0343 | ladynadiad
Character Name: Hawk
Canon: Ys IX: Monstrum Nox
Info: Hawk is an overly aggressive, very fight happy sort of guy. He loves picking fights, he drinks a bit too much, he lacks social skills and he's got a tendency to master most things he attempts (except fighting, social skills and magic) so he tends to get bored easily. He also loves danger and acts recklessly. If people are running away from something screaming, he's grinning and excited because that sounds like his sort of fun and he's not capable of feeling fear. He's also very snarky and tends to say what's on his mind, not caring one bit how insulting it may be.

And for those that don't mind spoilers some other info: Also right before Hawk's canon point it was revealed to him that he's actually a homunculus of a hero who lived 500 years ago, which definitely isn't helping him with his issues pertaining to his life having no meaning. He also was revealed as being a Berserker, which gives him quite the edge in battle, but he's not fully able to control the negative parts of it yet.

Magic & Familiar: Elemental + Kinetic | Hawk spirit
Desired CR: I'm up for really anything positive or negative, but here's a few things I'm especially looking for:

-More fight buddies/rivals/etc. If your character is good at combat and uses swords/knives, he'd love to fight yours.
-People to be a bad influence on him, do dark web stuff, etc.
-People who are a good influence but won't lecture him about his behavior or push too hard to change him. This is a bit harder, but he's only going to open up if he feels comfortable around someone.
-People who can get him to do something besides fighting. If he can find things besides fighting and drinking to deal with boredom, this would be amazing for him.

Known Plans: Have a few things in mind in general

-Questing! Definitely want Hawk to get shrunk by bees and bit by spiders because he's stupidly reckless and tends to stab first, ask questions later. The library labyrinth could also be fun. Definitely would like to find some folks to do some quests with.

-Magic training. So he's pretty glad to have gotten kinetic magic. Definitely going to have him brave the rain to practice flying and some ideas for magical barriers. But Hawk is reckless, loves danger and seems to do better at using magic when there is a risk to himself. So this can only go poorly.

consider; a quest that accidentally turns into a date without either of them realizing

Hawk intrigues Chris, and she's not entirely certain what to make of him, but she feels in her gut that he's not as terrible as he makes himself out to be, and she wants to try to get him to realize that too. So definitely put her down for "good influence", which she'll try to be by example, since it looks like Hawk responds better to that.

[notquitetamed]

I like this idea! Any particular quest in mind? Maybe go slime killing since that seems like it would be right up their alley.

She'd also be right about him, but she'll also have a huge advantage at being a good influence and already has his interest.

[ofsilverflame]

Sounds good! And maybe getting caught in the rain afterwards. that's good for building romantic tension.

I'm never one to argue about having the deck stacked in my favour! Though if she were to find out he'd done Dark Web Stuff she'd be...very disappointed in him. Might need a bit of space too. We can always do that later though, after they've gotten a bit closer.

[notquitetamed]

Well, he did get the dry spell recipe which is the size of an umbrella. Getting all close under magical umbrella?

I'd say it may be best for her to find out later. Mostly because it would work better for him to have a reason to care rather than him pulling what he did in canon and running away. That I know won't end well.

[liveandforgive]

Sword buddies/rivals?? 👀

[notquitetamed]

Sounds good to me! They even have the same magic types.

[liveandforgive]

not to mention hair... adfskjh

[notquitetamed]

Seriously. Definitely could be fun to pit a speedy dual wielder against Cloud's massive sword.

[eightfoldfiend]

The war devil is here for your...questionable influence needs.

[notquitetamed]

It will be welcomed and Hawk can help with the learning about human stuff.

[snaccs]

I can't specifically offer a sword user (knives maybe) but Kate is good in a fight and is interested in dark web quests so I'd be up for her getting to know Hawk and dragging him into some.

[notquitetamed]

Sounds like a plan! His morals are lacking so he's not hard to talk into one. He also doesn't object to fighting a knife user or people who use other weapons, it's just that a fellow sword user tends to be a more equal match.

[snaccs]

Hers too, especially since her main objective so far here is "survive long enough to go home". u_u. Whatever happens she can definitely at least invite him into questionable questing. :>

[notquitetamed]

Sure, did you have a particular quest in mind then?

[schmisse]

i do believe these two need to meet up now in canon thanks to the meme thread!

[notquitetamed]

I agree! Then he can proceed to disappoint because his personality sucks. I definitely plan to have an open prompt for training since that's the main idea I have right now besides questing. Of course I probably will have him get stung by the bees so there's potential humor there too.

[schmisse]

Training sounds good, then! Weiss is trying to perfect a certain technique she's been working on, so she'll be hanging out at the grounds more often!

[cameprepared]

How about someone who's a good influence, but has absolutely no stones to throw in terms of being a bit wild at heart?

[notquitetamed]

Much welcomed! He's definitely more inclined to respect and open up to people who don't lecture and judge him. Claire definitely seems like someone he'd be cool with from what I've seen of her so far.

[cameprepared]

It's not like she's never done questionable things and she's mostly pretty chill with anything that's not like, indiscriminate murder :P

She trains with magic on the practice grounds pretty regularly, so they may have crossed paths there even.

[notquitetamed]

Yeah, they probably have. He'd definitely stand out because of those huge black wings of his when he's practicing using magic to fly. Besides that he tends to practice combat applications of elemental magic and this month will be also practicing flight and combat uses of kinetic magic.

[corpsewarblade]

Fancy library quest funtimes with these two y/n?

[notquitetamed]

He's doing it with Chris, but hey he's from a JRPG and monsters always respawn in dungeons so doing that twice isn't a problem for me!

[corpsewarblade]

If you're up for that then that'd be cool! Otherwise Mukuro's down for most fighting quests if there's one you'd prefer.
