And I'm sure I can't pretend
to be a gentleman
but before I begin I just gotta know...
...What do I have to do to get inside of you?
Character Name: Croix Severiano
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Birthdate: August 22nd, Leo-Virgo Cusp, born on The Day of Seasoned Experience
Occupation: Memorial Groundskeeper & Construction Worker
Personality: When a man flashes a smile at you and proceeds to say that he’s a “Connoisseur of the Female Anatomy,” you can probably get a general idea of what his personality encompasses. Never one to be shy about expressing his personal preferences, Croix is a king among men that reminds you of that rugged knight from a harlequin romance novel steeped in historical fiction of sorts. He can make you insanely angry one minute and weak in the knees the next and you tend to not decide whether you want to slap him or kiss him. He considers women a labyrinth of mysteries, each one unique in their own design and each puzzles to be solved. The fairer sex sways him into assertive behaviors that are vulgar one second and chivalrous the next, always pushing and prodding during the chase.
And it is the chase he loves most because its reward is the sweetest. Women will have the upper hand with this fellow, for intimacy is the currency of his realm and payment invokes a contract of affection and protection of the likes most men quail at by comparison. He’s not a dumb doormat to be trifled with for fun, and he will put his foot down when he notices abuse of his “friendship,” but otherwise he is laid back and quite an open book of worldly knowledge for women to access at their leisure. Often women tend to get along with him better after they’ve bedded him for sport.
Men, on the other hand, are a different sack of beans all together. Croix acts as a vigilant mentor to those willing to listen, but he lacks patience in dealing with ‘boys’. Those who do not come to his ideology of a “true man” will find themselves often mocked by a sharp tongue and scathing remarks. For all it’s worth, however, men who are on friendlier terms with him have noted that they have never met a more patient guy in their lives.
He’s a hard, skilled worker; and when you take the time to look at his approach to things you’ll note the quality almost immediately. This is how he approaches life, and it gushes into his work ethic immeasurably. Because of this he is also very appreciative of the finer, artistic things in life. Life is short, but fruitful in the end. Croix doesn’t take well to people who squander their life for what it’s truly worth, which is why he despises individuals who are all talk and no action toward self improvement of their own life choices.
Physical Appearance: He's a decently tall guy standing at about 5'10" with somewhat of a powerhouse build underneath the usual modest uniforms he wears. But when he’s out and about in casual everyday denim pants and wife beater shirts it’s clear to see that the guy can take a licking and keep on ticking. Everything about him is foreign because despite how long he’s lived in Japan, he’s of Italian descent and carries the sun-touched olive skin and lighter facial features to show for it. His reddish hair and emerald eyes are something that might blend in only in a place like Shibuya, but everywhere else he stands out like a sore thumb. He's a modestly tall guy standing at about 5'10"
Strengths: Flirtatious, gallant, multi-lingual, and cunning.
Once you get past a lot of the crass attributes of his external nature, people tend to find more levels of complexity to him than they originally anticipated.
Weaknesses: Women, cigarettes, crass behavior, and liquor.
Croix is all about the earthly pleasures in life, and does little-to-nothing to curb his baser desires simply because it’s a “morality” issue.
Habits: All of his weaknesses are his vices, but he does them in decent moderation with the exception of bedding women. His worst habit is sticking his nose into things that are none of his business. This is mostly because he’s a “social experiment” kind of guy. Always willing to poke and prod people on hot button topics that tend to flare up tempers.
Background: According to him Croix grew up near Florence, Italy in what would ultimately equate to a Roman Catholic orphanage for the first half of his life. He raised hell, so-to-speak, due to his “sinful” nature of unclean thoughts (even as a child), and never really listening to the sisters. He was a typical, over-active child, with a knack for saying stuff that would always get him into trouble. Croix liked flirting with the girls and was a boy that got over the “cootie” phase pretty quickly.
When things got a little too stifling for his tastes, he took off in his late teens to start exploring the world for what it was. The sisters formally educated him for most of his youth, but he was never the type to latch onto anything past art and literature. His motto of “living by doing” warranted the opportunities of apprenticeship from various craftsmen through Italy, France, and Spain. The war with the Shadow Army took its toll on the world far more than most people tended to realize. Everywhere Croix went there were always things to build, people to assist, and lives to reconstruct. Since Tokyo had taken the brunt of the damage, he found himself easily employed despite his foreign background. After the rebuilding of Crystal Tokyo came to a closing, he has managed to find himself a permanent “home” in the upkeep and maintenance of the Memorial along with other freelance jobs around the city when they need an extra hand.
