OOC: Character Info

[forza_del_bene]

* A highly AU/alt-timeline version of KH's badguy-in-charge. He was given another_chance and took it...

* Appears 20ish years old - give or take uncertainty over his actual birthday, how he was created, and general temporal weirdness. For the sake of argument, he calls himself 22 and places his birthday as the day he was brought to Radiant Garden.

* Fully aware of his past, although any direct memories he has of his previous life/lives are very fractured: just the odd image. For him, it feels more like 'a dream that he forgot' than anything.
However, he does have indirect access to the knowledge the memories provide. Including all of Master Xehanort's. Yes, even those ones from when he was young... He knows his timeline should never have happened, but he's hardly got issues with the fact it did.

* Skilled Keyblade wielder, if still not technically/officially a Master. Capable of using nearly all Terra's endgame attacks/modes/shot locks, or equivalents to them (for Rock Breaker and his darkness moves - while he'd hardly have technical problems using darkness if it came down to it, he's deliberately never trained in it, directing his attention towards the light and strengthening in it. In fact, he's capable of 'temporarily' unlocking his heart and possessing others, powering them up.). Sadly, he can't use Cure type magic very well, and he doesn't have access to armour - as far as darkness protection goes, he's scored an Organization coat, though he dislikes running around looking like Xemnas. His glider's a winged jetpack. He has the ability to summon his own Guardian at will - an armoured figure resembling the original Terra - although this restricts his access to other magic at that time.

* Very conscious of his status as the 'person shaped can' for Master Xehanort's heart. Uses this as an impetus to stay in the Light - he knows the consequences for himself, others and potentially the rest of the world(s) if he slips back to the dark. That does not mean it's always easy, though...
He knows/believes darkness has its place in the worlds. He appreciates the concept of balance of light and dark. He's just equally sure it's not his place, and that bringing balance by flooding everything in darkness is not the way to do it. He'll settle for peace and order, instead. If balance is to be attained, he doesn't believe it should be by force - compare the ideas of 'save the planet by blowing up all the power stations and oil refineries' to 'save the planet by teaching and guiding everyone how to do things the right way.' Or something like that.

* Hasn't given up on his scientific studies, still has quite the love of knowledge: he's been researching into the Keyblade's properties very thoroughly over the years, both via scientific and historical research. A lot of his study's going towards the concept of actually constructing one. (He has no plans to go as far as either his other self/Heartless or Master Xehanort in these matters, mind... what he's working on sure isn't the X-Blade. It interests him intellectually, sure, but given what its creation involves he's against it.)

* He typically just introduces himself as Xeha. He doesn't mind his friends using his full name, and he doesn't tend to object too badly to anyone referring to him as Terra (depending on the situation.)

* He sounds like the classic apprentice Xehanort, but with a slightly lighter touch to his words.

* Has a young daughter, name of Desiree, with a certain Aqua. He's trying to do this dad thing the right way but it's not exactly natural for him.

* Theme tune is a remix of Terra's.
