Age: 30
Pronoun: they/them
Timezone: AST
Current Characters: Captain Fabian
Character Name: Sebastian / Tox (goes by either one/both)
Character Canon: Original
Canon Point: About a month after being blinded by his cult leader and thrown in prison
Age: 27
Crime: Blasphemy and Insubordination. Tox grew up in an isolationist underground cult where the rules are quite based on their religion and their own set of social norms. Contact with the surface (or with any outsiders, even underground) is forbidden except in special cases like Tox’s, where he was a spy. However, he broke the rules of his contract by fraternizing with surface folk more than was strictly necessary to accomplish his missions; he developed a romantic and sexual relationship with a surface girl, and was found out.
Background: Drewiki?
(Note: there are one million CWs for his background- detailed at the top- please mind them)
Personality:
Sebastian’s personality was shaped through mechanisms of nature and nurture in the hostile environment he grew up in. Bred and raised to be a living weapon, there was a lot of pressure placed on him, and small mistakes earned big punishments that threatened his physical safety. Because of this, he is a perfectionist who is quite hard on himself, often feeling disproportionate guilt and shame over small social mishaps or any perception of being burdensome to others. He easily spirals into patterns of self-loathing and tends to be overly apologetic.
The trauma he has been through for decades in his cult have made him cynical, distrustful, overly cautious, and hypervigilant. He tends to think strategically and analytically, always three steps ahead, which is both a product of his spy training and a survival mechanism to foresee consequences of his own actions. He once believed in all the cult’s teachings and felt a sense of belonging there, but this has eroded almost completely now, and he has realized that these people never truly cared about him or held his best interests at heart.
Naturally, Tox is intelligent and diligent, hard working, giving his all to whatever he does. He does not half-ass anything; he will throw himself all into something or avoid it like the plague. He is similarly black-and-white about people; he tends to be quite standoffish and shy upon first meeting someone, but once he trusts them, he is completely devoted to them and would kill for them. He is possessive and protective of those he loves, because he is so used to danger, and deep down he wishes that someone had protected him. This is especially the case with his daughter, because he wants her to grow up without the toxic abuse he had to deal with.
Despite his overall disillusionment, Tox remains curious about the world and people around him, and he has a soft and sensitive side buried underneath his 17 layers of defense mechanisms. He immensely enjoys music, things that are soft to the touch, hot chocolate, and warm cozy places. He is secretly a cuddlebug.
Abilities:
Poison Magic: Poison magics have been infused into Sebastian’s body since he was in the womb, by magical experiments his father performed on him as a fetus. He can summon and manipulate poisons such as chloroform, alcohols, acids, and other toxic substances. The little gun on his bionic arm does not shoot bullets- it shoots poison. He is also immune to the poisons he can produce, as they are not incompatible with his biology.
Heightened Senses: Tox is not human, and is genetically engineered to have biological advantages that are useful in combat. One of these is heightened senses, especially hearing and smell (and sight but that’s now irrelevant).
Dexterity & Combat Prowess: Another biological advantage is his coordination and quick reflexes, which have also been honed through combat training from a young age. He is proficient in most weapons, but particularly daggers and spears.
Shapeshifting: He honestly isn’t much of a fan of shapeshifting, and is not great at it now that he’s blind, but technically he can.
Samples: Morgan & Dex
Actions during the TDM: Helped Elodie catch a moth. Explored the caves. Tried to barter for a weapon and probably failed.
