Name: Elliot Lindstrom
Nicknames: Eli
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 158lbs
Sexual Orientation: Demisexual
Affiliation: Military -- Trainee

Personality:
Sarcastic, blunt, and lazy, the first impression that most people get of Elliot is that he is just a typical troublesome teenage boy. Although his parents would love for him to go out and make a life for himself, he lacks both the motivation and the desire to leave the comfort of his home. As he sees it, why should he make an effort to work hard when there is really no need to? Truthfully, he is already content enough as is with his slacker lifestyle. Although not rich, he and parents have enough money to comfortably live off of, and that is enough for him.

There are facets of his personality that do not initially shine through, however. Although many of his negative qualities are made immediately obvious, Elliot’s intelligence and sharp perception skills are frequently overlooked. To be fair, it is not something that he goes around flaunting—he honestly doesn’t care if people just think of him as some lazy freeloader—but he is the type of person who is capable of keeping a clear head even in the worst of times. Level-headed, he doesn’t let a lot of things get to him, and thus is usually capable of focusing on what is important rather than allowing himself to get distracted by inconsequential information or his emotions.

What may be frustrating to some is that he is a natural pessimist. No matter what the situation, Elliot tends to look at the most negative possible outcome. On one hand, he can be one hell of a downer and should probably be avoided if one is looking for some positivity, but on the other hand, this means that Elliot goes into situations expecting the worst. As such, he has already considered and planned for any potential drawbacks, which ultimately means that he isn’t as easily caught off guard if things were to go to hell.

For all his bland expressions and his deadpan attitude when interacting with people, Elliot possesses a great deal of compassion and concern for others. Empathetic to a fault, he will frequently go out of his way to spare some of his time or whatever money he has if it means helping another person, particularly due to his belief that people really need to help each other during these times of distress. He is a good listener who is patient and always willing to lend an ear to those who need it, but on the downside, his kindness also makes him a bit of a pushover. He has great difficulty in telling someone no if they need help, especially if it is someone who he considers to be a close friend.

All in all, he is lazy in body, but sharp in mind. While Elliot could very well excel in a number of areas if he were to try, the problem here is actually making him make that effort. As it is, it would take quite a drastic event—a strong push—that would force him onto his feet and acting. What this driving force is has yet to be discovered.

Likes: Reading (particularly non-fiction/anything informative), rain, sleeping/lazing around, sitting in the shade on hot and sunny days, and (while he won't openly admit it) hanging out with his best friend, Sebastian.
Dislikes: The heat, any sort of physical exercise, people who are blatantly cruel/selfish, mosquitoes, and the poor state of the lives of many people who live within the walls.

Extra:
  • He wears reading glasses
  • He has the tendency of fiddling with his earrings when he's thinking
  • He's more of a cat person than a dog person
  • Even if he didn't want to do it in the first place, he admittedly kind of likes working with flowers. It calms him down (and he doesn't care who knows it)
  • Sebastian Schneider (played by Krysin) is his best friend--they've known one another since they were kids
  • He loves lemons. He will eat a lemon whole and without batting an eye if you hand one to him. It's kind of like his freaky talent.
  • Elliot doesn't like fish--the smell reminds him of what he feeds his cat

Elliot was born and raised in Trost, and is the sole child of Nadia and Alain Lindstrom. Living a rather modest life, the Lindstrom family make just a little more than what is needed to comfortably sustain their daily needs. Their primary source of income comes from the flower store that Elliot’s mother owns, but his father also dabbles in various side jobs to bring in extra money. Despite the fact that he had little desire to interact with customers or work in a flower shop, Elliot was pulled into helping out ever since he was 12, and continues to do so to this day. Of course, his idea of “helping” is really doing as minimal work as possible, but it’s nice to have an extra person in the store sometimes.

When he’s not being forced to work, Elliot is usually off reading by his lonesome. Sometimes he indulges in novels, but for the most part, his preference lies with non-fiction. Although he no longer attends school—his parents had pulled him out so that he could help with the shop—he has taken to self-studying in an effort to catch up. As such, Elliot can frequently be found poring over textbooks that his best friend since childhood—Sebastian—borrows from his younger siblings.

Otherwise, his other hobbies involve hanging out with Sebastian or lazing around. He has also taken to using whatever leftover funds he has remaining at the end of a month to buy canned goods and venture into the poorer areas of Trost. He knows it’s not much and that it does very little in the long run, but it’s Elliot’s weak attempt at doing something to help since the monarchy doesn't seem to be making any sort of effort to assist the numerous people who are struggling to make ends meet.

When it comes to the military as a whole, he's pretty neutral about them. He neither likes nor dislikes the Stationary Guard, and his opinion on the Scouting Legion is generally slightly more positive than others since he does acknowledge that they are trying to find a way to free humanity. However, the Military Police is presently at the bottom of his list--the stories of corruption that apparently run rampant through the branch has caused him to look at them scornfully. Whether his opinions on any of these three branches will ever change has yet to be seen.

Alain Lindstrom
Father - Alive
"Uh...dad. He's...cool, I guess? I don't really know what to say. I mean, he
wants me to become more responsible and all that fun stuff, but that's pretty
much how mom is too. Pretty nice guy overall, though he has a bleeding
heart for anyone who needs help. ...Actually, I probably got that from him,
didn't I--I'm a bit of a pushover too."


Nadia Lindstrom
Mother - Alive
"My mom is definitely kind, but holy s**t is she ever terrifying when she's
mad. Fortunately, she usually doesn't get mad--she just gets this warning
tone and unnerving smile on her face when she's nearing her exploding
point--but seriously. Never, ever upset her. Otherwise, she's all about smiles
and flowers."


Seren
Cat - Alive
"My cat. She's kind of finicky when it comes to interacting with people
outside the family, so anyone who Seren seems to like should count
themselves lucky. She likes to lay beside me while I read, and she's great
company for when I'd like to be away from people and relax for a bit."

Alec Scott
Acquaintance - Alive
"Nice enough guy. Dropped by our flower booth a couple of times during the
festival, and we played a game of darts too. He also really seems to like
Seren, but that's not all the surprising, honestly. All in all, wouldn't really
mind talking to him or hanging out more often."


Danny Fitzgerald
Acquaintance - Alive
"Uh, wow. She's really...loud, to be honest. And enthusiastic. Not to say that
either of these are bad things, but she seems like the type of person who
would tire me out really quickly. Aside from that, she seems to be a sweet
enough girl. Just...you know. I don't know her all that well yet though, to be
completely honest."


Nekoda "Kody" Ross
Close Friend - Alive
"I've known Kody for a long, long time. She's old friends with Bas and I, and
uh...how do I put this? I definitely think of her as a close friend, but she's very
uh...well. She likes to work hard, which is kind of the complete opposite of
what I like to do. She's been dragging me off my a** and making me help
with things for as long as I can remember. Sometimes I run when I see her
because I know she probably wants me to do something that is not sleep or
read."


Nyyrikki Synkka
Acquaintance - Alive
"Haha, I like this guy! He's cool, and he seems pretty chill too. Bonus points
because he kept me company for a little bit at my booth and helped dispel
some of my boredom by letting me put flower pins in his hair. Maybe we'll run
into one another again--wouldn't mind making more friends, really."


Sebastian "Bas" Schneider
Best Friend - Alive
"Aah yes, the doofus who is my best friend. To be serious though, for all the
teasing that I do, he really is a great guy. Don't tell him I said that though--I
think it'd go to his head. He's there when I need him and I'm there when he
needs me--that's pretty much just how our friendship works. ...Though our
friendship also runs on bribery when we need favours done. "


Shun Kuroda
Acquaintance - Alive
"This guy...hm. He swung by my booth at the festival and when I offered a
freebie of some kind to him if he entertained me (was I ever bored) for a bit,
he actually asked for the lunch I jokingly offered. I'm honestly curious what
his life has been like, but really, I'm not one to pry. Doesn't seem like a bad
person, though he's definitely a little rough around the edges. Makes good
company though--he's quiet, unlike everyone else."


Shakuntala Tischendorf
Acquaintance - Alive
"Skittish girl I briefly met at the parade. She seems sweet enough? I don't
really know anything about her besides her name though."
