Icon:

Abilities:

Time Lord powers. Sass. Making lists. TBA? no cool rift powers are suggesting themselves, but if i think of something i will run it by mods. i probs won't think of anything.

Appearance:

Tall, thin, somewhat sepulchral. Old. Severe case of Resting Bitch Face. Expressive eyebrows, out of control hands, poorly coordinated movements. Does not have the best posture sometimes. Sometimes wears a very snazzy red-lined coat over a nice shirt and sometimes a plainer coat over an incomprehensibly moth-eaten shirt. WHY??? No one knows. Even I don't know. Unpredictable nerd who probably listens to jazz.

Personality:

This Doctor is outwardly rude, sarcastic, Scottish, and volatile. So, pretty par for some of the previous courses. More inwardly he is much less secure in himself, with a tendency towards unsurety, self-deprecation or even outright self-despite. He has seen some shit. And sometimes responded to it in ways that make him mistrust himself. Very desperately needs a moirail friend. Which could be a problem, since he's terrible at people. He's faceblind, somewhat oblivious at times (sometimes deliberately), and fairly aloof, with an obvious distaste for physical affection and very little understanding/interest/patience for various human niceties. But he is still the Doctor, so he will still always want to help others, even if he's calling them names at the time and swearing up a blue streak internally. Tends to be fairly methodical, likes to use logic and write on things with chalk. Will get super excited about solving a problem, but that's not new. Goes from 'nerd' to 'christing SHIT that's terrifying' in .03 seconds. Also not new.

History:

Okay well that's 1000+ years of history that i am going to skip entirely bc im not immortal. let's just focus on this regeneration. Regeneration was very tumultuous, and some past events/personality traits have left this Doctor on somewhat insecure footing to start. After witnessing a tragic dinosaur murder, sparking a brief stint as a delirious Victorian hobo, the Doctor gets his shit mostly together and continues traveling with Clara. Clara is pretty awesome bc she refuses to take the majority of his shit and he settles in to accepting that, moirallegiance is magic. More than that, she becomes a sort of personal mirror, which is good and bad. I'm attempting to not spoil this season so people who care about DW but haven't seen it can read this safely, so we'll skip to where a lot of really traumatizing things happen, re-solidifying the Doctor's sense of self (and the goodness of self) and Clara leaves. A lot of people get their hopes up and then cry/flip out, sometimes more than once. Despite re-affirming his basic goodness and completely non-megalomaniacal humility, the Doctor is in kind of a dark place.

The Game
How did you find out about Big Applesauce?

I was already here.

What interests you about the game, and your character's place in it?

man i am so here for slice of life, you don't even know. this owly asshole severely needs a dose of mundanity and opportunities to meddle. i want to force him to interact with as many children and cute animals as possible, because that's hilarious. please, if you have children or obnoxiously cute animals, bring them.


Anything else?
