CHARACTER INFO:
Name: Theodore
Gender: Male
Source: Persona 3 Portable
Canon point: Shortly after the first request he makes to visit the human world, (Paulownia Mall specifically,) is fulfilled.
Age: who even knows (really friggin old)
Colour: 267de6
Chumhandle: valuedHost
History: Theodore, (along with his elder sisters Elizabeth and Margaret,) is an assistant in the velvet room. He can only be seen in the female path of Persona 3 Portable, and even then only if the player chooses to have Igor's assistant be male. In the velvet room he serves the function of carrying the Persona Compendium, which is where the player character may retrive personas that they have already obtained that are not in their party currently.
Theo and his boss in the velvet room, Igor don't interact much, except when Theo is asking something like "hey, could a escalator possibly be added to the velvet room?" (to which the answer is always no.) As for his sisters, as the youngest Theo is very clearly the dorky younger brother of the family. He gets chills down his spine when thinking about Elizabeth and one of his sisters fed him dog food at some point. So yeah.
As being a resident of the velvet room means one has a ton of downtime, Theo spends quite a lot of his time reading, often about the human world. He considers himself and expert about everything thanks to his reading. He really, really isn't.
Theo also gives quests for the player to complete, which range from collecting a certain number of dropped items from shadows to taking him out to see parts of the human world. As he has these trips he slowly gains a greater understanding of earth, (fountains are for decoration, jungle gyms aren't there so you can stand on top of them, ect. ect.,) as well as develop a massive crush on the FeMC. However, during the final date if the FeMC presses him on his feelings he will admit he has fallen in love with her, but insists on not taking their relationship any further, due to his position as assistant in the velvet room.
Theo can also be fought as the bonus boss at the top of a bonus dungeon.
Personality: Theodore is a polite and serious humanoid abomination. He's also pretty friendly, as far as humanoid abominations go! Of course if you think about it that isn't all that grand of a statement, as the category of "humanoid abomination" also contains fellows like the Slenderman. But still, he's pretty amiable!
Having been in the velvet room pretty much his entire life Theo is intensely curious about anything outside it. He has an ridiculously child-like eagerness whenever the FeMC takes him out. Ooh, look, an aqueous duct! Ooh, look, a police station! Ooh, look, a crane game! Aaand, then come the false assumptions. Because due to his reading he is obviously an absolute scholar when it comes to the human world. So the aqueous duct means that the inhabitants of earth are constantly very thirsty. And the wanted posters at the police station are there for bounty hunters. And the crane game IS MEANT TO SIMULATE THE CATCHING OF REAL CRANES. Sure he might get it in a few more guesses... or he could just be utterly clueless and require a detailed explanation. As proud as he is of his knowledge he is, it is pretty much never useful in the real world.
Of course, those false assumptions aren't the only thing that would mean he wouldn't last a day in the real world were he dropped in there without a guide! Of course not! He is also extremely literal minded! So no understanding metaphors is going to be happening any time soon. If you say you are so happy you could die in his proximity he will suddenly be very worried for your health and oh dear what an unfortunate and also very strange medical condition to have, to be able to die from happiness. And he will feel incredibly guilty there isn't anything he can do to help you. And just forget about him being able to detect sarcasm any time this century
Theo is very kind to... pretty much everyone. And he cares a ton about his friends' safety. In fact, during above mentioned bonus boss battle? He apologizes for almost every attack. And he only challenges the FeMC because he believes she will be able to defeat him.
Abilities & physical limitations: Theodore calls himself in-game "an avatar of power." And while we never quite get an explanation as to exactly what that means? It's highly likely that translates out into something along the lines of "ridiculously powerful and nigh-imortal." Which SBurb will tone down to something along the lines of "powerful and high endurance."
Theodore is one of the few persona users capable of using multiple personas. Not that he'll have multiple personas (at least at first) that is.
He also has a number of cool, yet highly situation-specific and most likely mostly useless abilities. As in, he can tell the temperature of things by touching them. Or recognize any material by sight. A bunch of cool parlor tricks, basically.
Theodore is easily mislead. By anything. Even something that couldn't be more suspicious if it's hands were literally red.

Notable AU differences from canon, if applicable: N/A
Strife Specibus: CardKind. (the cards summon personas. because of the loss of the compendium the only one he has when he first enters the game is Gabriel because that he was fiddling with it beforehand.)
Prototyping: Compendiumsprite. Which is to say it is prototyped with the entire persona compendium. Oh dear. When it is first prototyped and is a floaty, glowy sphere it still looks like a book. But, as soon as it hatches into it's ghosty form it starts rapidly rotating though a glitchy bunch of jumbled up persona combinations. Eventually the game decides "fuck it" and explodes the poor thing.
The effect that it has on constructs is that the affected ones can use low level fire/electricity/wind/ice spells.
Title: The Fool of Dope (Rhymes Y'all. (this isn't actually part of the title))
In-game abilities: For some reason SBurb really couldn't think of any thing better to call it's power activated by rapping. Beat, Rhyme, and Flow all just didn't occur to it. Nope, it's gotta be dope. The better the rhymes the more devastating the attacks. Of course, Theo is so clueless that if he heard someone was "rapping" he couldn't even use the fallback idiot guess of it having something to do with presents. So... yeah, it's gonna be a challenge for him. And painful for anyone else who has to listen to him along the way. Actually, let's just hope he never figures out what his title means.
Planet: Land of Fountains and Soap: Once this land was known for it's magnificent fountains. Then one day Huehuecoyotl, the denizen of this land and an incurable prankster, replaced the central water supply of the planet with a bunch of soap. Going though the fountain system churned up the soap and the land was soon covered in a white, frothy, mass. The consorts of this land, a bunch of gruff burgundy velociraptors, were forced to move into villages built on stilts. They really wish Huehuecoyotl would quit it with the pranks already. They aren't even funny. They're just him being a huge jerk.

VH: Greetings.
VH: This is the function which allows me to send messages to my fellow co-players, correct?
VH: It seems I have set this up properly!
VH: Although I do admit I still do not quite comprend the reason for entering the name of a plank of wood.
VH: Still, I believe I gave a good answer.
VH: Anyways.
VH: My name is Theodore, and I have just joined this session.
VH: This will be my first time being more than just an assistant in an situation like this, so I very much look forward to playing this game with the rest of you!
VH: Incidentally.
VH: It appears that in joining this game, I accidentally took the velvet room with me.
VH: This could be quite inconvenient for the fate of humanity as a whole.
VH: And my master is sure to be cross with me.
VH: Do any of you know of a way to put it back?
