AMITYVILLE ACADEMY ENROLLMENT FORM
Name: Livius Addams
Nicknames: Envy, Livi (more commonly known as his name), Vi (Accepted folks ONLY)
Gender: Male
Age: 15
Faction/Race Avarice Demon (Envy branch)
Personality: Vi believes, quite rightly so, that he’s awesome. Sure, he’s gotten shafted a few times… okay, maybe more than that (but hey, they were a** hats anyway so whatever, right?) by more than a few people, but that doesn’t stop his confidence. He will admit that he has a few.. ‘flaws’, but who doesn’t? Instead of it making him long to cry in a corner, huddled and sobbing, he thinks it’s a much better idea to learn how to overcome them.. maybe. If someone does give him the shaft, he’ll play it off as plain envy and jealousy from ‘cute little peons’, but if it’s something he feels he can change to make himself more awesome, he’ll work on it. Internally. Without losers finding out about it. Or he may feel a bit of payback is in order, depends on the mood. Sometimes that involves a bit (a LOT) of intimidation (namely to said person who made him have to think about it) but minor detail, minor detail. Very firmly upper crust, he knows his place in the flow of things (supposedly) and chooses to follow it in his own fashion. Namely, by not acting like this parents.
One thing that both guarantees a continuous ego boost while keeping him more or less sane are his "Projects". He believes that people should at least attempt to look at good as him, and being the oh-so-awesome and important Demon he is, he helps them at least
try to match his standards. It’s a very good thing he’s given a regular allowance to help fund this ‘hobby’ of his. He’s also overly, vastly, almost insanely DETERMINED! Please, for the sake of your sanity, don’t tell him no. He might let you get away for a bit, but he’ll be waiting, plotting and he’s going to eventually get his way.
If asked why he does what he does, he’ll only shrug and say it’s because he wants to. That and the world is far too ugly to just let it be, but the truth is a bit more basic. Vi, despite his charm and flair for awesome outfits, currently has absolutely NO friends. He may have ‘followers’ or people who dote on him, but no one he can truly just sit and talk with. He’s only just recently discovered that he’s actually lonely and (maybe) would like that close connection. But to admit such a want to his parents would only result in him getting laughed at and called a p***y of an Avarice or something to that effect. So he covers it up by being his usual, charming self and shoves this little ‘issue’ into the back of his mind.
QuirksFamilyWhy did they enroll at the academy? In the words of his lofty (and somewhat respected) parents, it is to become a ‘proper’ envy demon. Apparently, Vi had a bit too much fun with his ‘pretty projects’ and was causing a lot of problems in their neighborhood. They long for him to get over his obsession with fashion and looking good and to just do what his classification expects of him. They have always heard amazing things about Amityville High and know that they’ll set him straight. Vi, on the other hand, sees this new school as a challenge. He’s not sure if he wants to become the typical stereotypical envy demon, but he is interested in personal growth. And maybe performing some more ‘Projects’.
Least that's what's on paper. Truth? He had been kicked out of several private schools for his hobby. That and his undeniable popularity. Looking as good as he did cause problems at times, especially since he wasn't the type who was into dating anyone who couldn't look as good as him.
((This will be updated and expanded upon. Anything in green is the added parts))
FAQQ: How many 'Projects' do you think Livi can/could/will take on at once? Or does that largely depend on the amount of work he has to do?
A: It depends on the amount of work and if he feels a draw to the person. If he does take on more than one, the max is simply two. Mainly because he gets really focused on it and doesn't like to truly divide his time too much
Q: If they turned out to be 'hopeless', would he give up on them and move to a more promising project?
A: If they were truly hopeless, in his eyes, he'd give up for a bit. Just to see if maybe they'd change if he wasn't there to pressure them and they show a sense of improvement. If there's absolutely no hope even after that, he won't openly admit defeat but he would look for something more promising
Q: How would he react if he actually did find someone that could put up with him and did call him a 'friend'? Or if someone found out about this secret want?
A: If someone found out about him wanting friends, he'd most likely deny it, simply because he's not (mentally) ready to speak about it. He won't turn away from the person, but he'd be rather stoked to have made a friend. It'll show in how he'll tend to show up around them and let them follow him (if they don't look as awesome as he does) and he may drop advice to look better but he won't make them a Project. And it's rare for him to NOT want to turn someone in something distasteful into a Project XD
