Character Name: Robert

About Them: SPOILERS AHEAD: Robert is a "cursed doll" "undead" who is in reality an immortal monster. He got tired of being immortal, and also stepped into a fight he could not win in order to help one of the only people he's ever been attached to in his life, two facts that might be more related to each other than he'd let on.

He's kind of legitimately a horrible person but also simultaneously not that bad a person? His nature as a monster pushes him towards Evil but his own nature makes him solidly Neutral... while still being inclined towards some Bad Shit. (Come to Robert for all your spinning moral compass needs!) He tormented and murdered the person he cared most about in the world, and on the other hand he mentored and reassured a ten year old girl and got himself killed in his attempts to help her save humanity.

He's also used to crazy hectic groups of people and is used to being the Designated Straight Man and more level-headed than most anyone he knows. Kind of weird for a creepy doll person who enjoys others' suffering, but the fact remains! He's dependable and actually quite caring when he actually gets attached to you... just good luck getting him to that point. It doesn't happen often though it seems to happen quickly when it does happen.

What They've Been Up to: Just exploring around, probably, and seeing if he wants to move into the Home For Children after he runs out of time for living in the Commons. It's not his first choice but he'll do it if necessary. He's also started graverobbing from bodies in Everglade and is looking for a bit of legitimate work in a non-Everglade city because he's no fool. B)

Looking For:

SPINNING MORAL COMPASS BUDDIES: Anybody looking for CR with weird morality? Because I'm looking for same. Robert's used to his weird gang back home and is himself inclined towards being... somewhat amoral. Literally all his troupe initially shrug off when the ten year old human girl they're "helping out" seems to have been killed, they're not real invested in saving humanity exactly, they talk about using cops as a distraction against the monsters and are literally first seen stealing a corpse. Overall Robert is not exactly Lawful Good, let's say.
FELLOW CRIMINALS: As said, he's grave robbing! He's also used to working for a specific person, and used to working with other people as he does crimes, so he's up for compatriots who might help him steal entire bodies (a bit beyond him at the moment), or potentially helping others out with their crimes. He's also up for working for someone who wants things done, especially if it's the work he's already doing anyway.
ARTISTIC PALS?: Robert has recently gotten some art supplies (he's either bought them or won them, I'm not fussed) but hasn't used them yet. I'm also planning on getting him at least a bit into the poetry stuff since we have DDLC characters! If anyone wants to teach him/advise him on either of those things, that'd be sweet. If anyone else is into some sort of artistic endeavors - any kind at all! - and is interested in mutual encouragement, that could also be super fun!
SWEET AND EARNEST PEOPLE: I am also 100% down with anyone who want to play their non-morally-messed-up characters off Robert! I am up for him being his worst or his best around them, because despite what I said above he does have a best and it's not always awful. Once he got attached to said ten year old girl in canon (and even beforehand) he stepped neatly into the mentor role. I'd be up for Robert filling a similar role for someone here.
HELLO FELLOW KIDS: Similar to the above, if any actual children want to assume Robert is also a child, I am totally down with that. He won't outright lie about it except maybe in a "...Yes. That's right. I'm definitely a child." deadpan way at most, but he'll roll with it without correcting people for a while.
LITERALLY ANY CR: None of the above catching your eye or fitting any of your characters? I'd love basically any CR with this little butt. I'm down for him getting somewhat attached to people but I'm also down for him having CR with people he doesn't care about that much one way or the other, or who he's slightly fond of but not too fussed about when it comes right down to it, or who he dislikes but not extremely and will hang out with anyway because why not. Outright negative CR would be difficult but also really, really cool if it happened!

Hell no: Just talk to me and I'd be up for pretty much anything tbh.
