ORIGINS & FAMILY:
Name: Nemo
Nickname: Unsung, I guess?
Reason for name: After moving into the foster home, his foster father Silva asked him if he wanted to be named Nemo, since Nemo had been found passed out on a beach.
Birthday: 614 I think, I don’t have the timeline with me right now. :C
Age: 17, by appearance. Somewhere in the second millennia, in reality.
Gender: Definitely male.
Place of birth: Royal dungeon in what’s technically the realm of Heaven?
Places lived since: Britain, New York, Norway/Scandinavia, Egypt, Tibet, Ireland, Italy, various provinces of Heaven and Hell.
Parents’ names, backgrounds, occupations: His dad was Justen, a royal guard in the hierarchy of angels. His mom is Alena, former ruler of Hell. Now she’s a political figurehead, for a gentler world. Most of the people in either world just think she’s nuts.
Number of siblings: Just one. But he’s a big’n.
Relationship with family (close? estranged?): Well, when he remembers who they are, he loves Alena. They get along very well. But he’s only ever made it close enough to talk to her without dying. Justen is… well, dead. Tarel he does not get along with well. Which is understandable, considering.
Happiest memory: Stored in Jormungand. The first time someone looked at him with love in their eyes.
Childhood trauma: Lots of executions. Looooots.
Children of his/her own?: God I’d hope not, he’s 17.
If so, relationship with their mother/father?: Nonexistent.
Age he/she gave birth/became a father: Why is this even being read? Are you just bored? Well. Damn. I’m sorry. Um. Here. Have a smiley face. (C :) He’s very happy.
PHYSICAL
Height: 6”, and change.
Weight: 146 or so.
Build: He’s slim. A little defined. It’s probably all the monster slaying. Or the dying. Might be the dying.
Nationality: Uhhh. White with a question mark.
Disabilities (physical or mental, including mental illnesses): Amnesia, every time he dies.
Complexion (freckles, acne, skin tone, birth marks): An invisible brand on his face that grows the longer he’s alive.
Face shape: Sorta long, like the rest of him. A tapered chin, high cheekbones, and deepset eyes.
Distinguishing facial features: Apart from the brand on his face, he’s not especially descript. Has very little facial hair, though whether that’s because he can’t grow it or because he hasn’t made it that far, I’m not sure.
Hair color: Brown black.
Usual hair style: Kinda long, dangles down into his eyes if he doesn’t do anything with it. Shorter in the back, keeps it above the shoulders.
Eye color: Gray-green, though they can lean either way depending on the lighting.
Glasses? Contacts?: No sir. Madame. Person.
Style of dress/typical outfit(s): Depends on what time and place he’s in. Right now, he’s wearing the clothes he borrowed from a British officer’s son.
Typical style of shoes: Well, previously, armored stuff. Keeps your feet in better condition. Now, just sneakers. Converse maybe? Does Britain have Converse? I think they do.
Health (is this person usually sick? or very resilient?): Very healthy, when his heart is beating.
Grooming (does she/he wear makeup? shower daily? wear only clean clothes? pluck her eyebrows?): Showers at every opportunity. He can’t always wear clean clothes, since he usually has to take off once people start hunting him down.
Jewelry? Tattoos? Piercings?: Jormungand, a silver bangle shaped after a snake wrapped around his right forearm. It turns into a few things, but mainly a gauntlet and a sword.
Accent?: Whatever era he shows up in, he usually has a featureless accent. It’s not that he doesn’t have one, it’s just very cosmopolitan.
Unique mannerisms/physical habits (bites nails, talks with hands, taps feet when restless): He does tap his feet, but usually that’s because he’s thinking of music. He’s very into music.
Athletic?: Yeah, he fights often. Not usually by choice, but sometimes he likes a scrap.
INTELLECT
Level of education (high school drop out, undergrad BA/BS, PhD, MD, etc.): He’s not stupid, but he never really had the chance to go to school. Now, he might.
Level of self esteem: Confident enough, that he doesn’t complain about himself. But he’s modest.
Gifts/talents: Very strong, and resilient as a part of his race.
Shortcomings: He’s not great at making allies, because of his desire to protect others. He knows that if he gets close to others, they’ll probably get hurt.
Style of speech (loud, mumbler, articulate, etc.): He’s not loud or quiet. He projects well, though. Tendency to get louder when stressed.
"Left brain" or "right brain" thinker?: He’s not great at art stuff. But I’m sure if he just applied himself he could probably draw at least stickmen.
Artistic?: No, not particularly. If you consider martial arts as art, then yes.
Mathematical?: Oh he hates math. He can’t count crowds for crap, either.
Makes decisions based mostly on emotions, or on logic?: Emotion which then leads to logic, if that makes sense.
Neuroses: After making contact with Jormungand and accepting what has happened to him up until that point, he gets a little paranoid when people follow him.
Life philosophies: “Life is worth living because you never know when it’s going to start over. But that doesn’t make it okay to put others in danger. If I can better someone’s life, it’s my responsibility to.”
Religious stance: “Knowing what’s behind the curtains of the universe? No, I’m good.”
Cautious or daring?: It depends on the situation. He tries to be cautious, but once shit hits the fan he kicks into a mindset where everything is do or die.
Most sensitive about/vulnerable to: Dead friends and family.
Optimist or pessimist?: Optimistic, for sure.
Extrovert or introvert?: He’s probably an extrovert at heart, considering his actions.

RELATIONSHIPS
Current marital/relationship status: Siiingle.

Primary reason for being broken up with: Dying. Or they died. Shit happens, though.
Primary reasons for breaking up with people: Same as above.
Level of sexual experience: Depends on your point of view regarding reincarnation. I’m gonna say he’s not a virgin.
Story of first kiss (if any—if not, how does he/she want it to happen?): He was thirteen, living in Norway. He made a bet with Thor that he could out do him in a contest of strength, namely the fishing of the great serpent Jormungand from the ocean. Lots of drinking is involved, and a crowd follows them to the ocean. They fish for a few hours until Nemo is yanked into the ocean by something he can’t see, knocking Thor in on the way. Thor makes a crack about finding Jormungand between his own legs, everyone laughs and leaves in good spirits, except for a valkyrie, who helps Nemo out of the water. She claims to have seen that it was the serpent that had pulled Nemo in, and kisses him, “as a reward for being so brave and strong”.
Story of loss of virginity (if any—if not, how does he/she want it to happen, if at all?): Lived in Ireland, at the age of sixteen. The Sidhe were involved, and Nemo discovered that some of the immortals don’t respond well to iron. He ran away from the Hunt, and was helped by a girl who seemed to be about seventeen. They ran to a cave, and she tells him to gather wood from the silverpine for a fire, because it will hide their presence. He does, and they light a fire in the cave. She convinces him to have sex (which wasn’t hard, granted, he was sixteen) and they fall asleep in each other’s arms. Long story short, silverpine smoke induces magical sleep, and she was actually one of the leanan, and she thought he was a mortal. It took him a long time to get out of the Fae prisons.
A social person? (popular, loner, some close friends, makes friends and then quickly drops them): He tends to be well liked, when he can make friends. And he usually gets to be pretty social.
Most comfortable around (person): Jenna and Silva. And Jorumungand of course.
Oldest friend: Jormungand.
How does he/she think others perceive him/her?: He isn’t too aware of how others see him, though he usually makes himself out to be kind of a dweeb.
How do others actually perceive him/her?: Strong, stoic, righteous sometimes. Friendly.
VOCATION
Profession: Well, he’s immortal?
Past occupations: Pantheon member, but not for long. They usually figure out who he is and strike his name from the record. But some of the ‘gods’ thought that he needs to be spoken of, so they find ways to hide his legends.
Passions: Fighting, being a hero, staying alive.
Attitude towards current job: None.
Attitude towards current coworkers, bosses, employees: dfjslafjslkdjg
Salary: All the monies.
SECRETS
(Every character—no matter how minor—should always have secrets!)
Phobias: Afraid of things grabbing his feet, and picking at his bones. If he knows he’s going to die, he asks the people around him to burn his body.
Life goals: Kill Tarel. Unify the worlds. Save people.
Dreams: Living with someone till they die naturally. Maybe he could, too.
Greatest fears: Watching those he loves die, or them watching him.

Compulsions: Save people, eat good food.

Past sexual transgressions: He maaaaaaaaaaaaaaay have flashed the valkyrie, but he swears it was an accident.
Crimes committed (and was he/she caught? charged?): Things he blames himself for, I suppose? Burned a fae queen with iron, killed three men who saw him killing a dragon, burned down one of the last groves of golden apple trees, and a group of nymphs and dryads with it.
What he/she most wants to change about his/her current life: Getting Steven killed. May change as the story progresses.
