Zack [Un]Fair || Final Fantasy VII

Player: Jodie | [plurk.com profile] graylights
Character: Zack Fair
Canon: Final Fantasy VII; Thinking very end of Crisis Core if possible?? Otherwise while on his way to Midgar.
Age: Twenty-Three
Bio Blurb: Wiki. A walking spoiler for FF7R honestly.
Zack worked for his world's military monster conglomerate called ShinRa. He's seen Some Shit. Continued to work for them despite all the wild things happening until things went Real Wrong. [ Spoilers: Ends up on a mission where he fights their head general, Sephiroth, after he loses his mind, his friend, Cloud, takes said general out, and then they both end up taken in by their own corporation's science department to be experimented on for four years. Breaks out with friend now in catatonic state. Goes on the run for a year until they end up cornered and he bites it protecting Cloud. ]

Personality Blurb:
From first glance, Zack comes off as the standard shounen protag. Friendly, cheerful, and optimistic. He's quick to pick up conversation with people and can be a huge flirt at times.

Zack's also stubborn, loyal to a fault, and has a knack for putting other people before himself despite how married to his duty he tends to be. All really serve him as strengths as well as weaknesses. In the beginning, he's a lot more naive, impatient, and quick to jump to conclusions, but this has mellowed out some due to all the things he's been through.

To that end, he's a bit more cautious with people now, a little less likely to accept help, and a lot more willing to question motives despite his cheerful, friendly front that might suggest otherwise. In the end, he still loves people, still wants to be a hero, and still will give it his all to do what he thinks is right. But he's definitely a lot more weathered and unlikely to share his personal demons with other people, more prone to helping them with their own.

Basically, he's real bad at taking care of himself.

You can see his full personality section here for more details.

Preferred Essence(s): Zack's kind of a lost hero type, but I could honestly go other routes with him. Like a story about either a fool or definitely someone who's considered to be a monster by other people would be my jam. Those might be more interesting to play with and give him some more demons to handle because who doesn't want more demons for their characters lol

Looking For: Ideas for his essence, his appearance when he uses it, and his abilities. It's been a while since I've brained things like this, but I've been pinged before by games like this. Just my first time considering Zack for it.

Appearance:
This fool. His original flavor. Definitely am cool with some differences to his appearance. He's tall at 6'3", broad, and definitely carries himself with confident stride.

Abilities:
By default, Zack's an enhanced human being/super soldier. Think Captain America. Strength, stamina, speed, endurance, heals faster, that kind of thing. He's proficient with an oversized 80lb. sword and can also use elemental, healing and buffing magic. Though they're tied to his world, so they might just be paper weights in this one.

Quirks: TBD based on essence.

Goal: Make new friends, do new things with Zack, and explore him in a setting that's a little less taxing and horrifying for him than the last one I threw him in.
Extra:

^^ Zack's life.
Questions: n/a Can't think of any off of the top of my head.
