full name║ Remilius "Remi" Mara-Cessair

nickname║ Remi, Rem, Mr. "I'm-Never-At-Group-Meetings"

age║ 17

gender║ male

sexuality║ Demisexual Panromantic

birthday║ May 25th

appearance║ Three pictures, Dark-style:

You can tell me which one you'll use. (Also I'm doing the backstory first since his personality would make no sense to you if you didn't read it first)

backstory║ Remi has associative synesthesia, which is when the stimulation of one sense (like sound) leads to a stimulation of another (like color). For example, to him the number 4 is just like the color orange, and thinking of rain gives him the sensation of getting water dumped on his even though it didn't actually happen. As such he sees the world in color all the time and even associates colors with other people, which makes his way of speaking and his personality rather... uh, odd. He was frequently bullied everywhere because of this because to him his way of thinking makes perfect sense, but to others it's like he literally lives in another world. To make matters worse his parents also frequently abused him, mentally and physically. When he was born, white hair was extremely uncommon in their village so everyone called him a 'freak' and his parents as a result rejected him with every fiber of their body-which certainly did not get better when they learned about his synesthesia. As a result his self-esteem derailed and he started to hate humanity, even more so when he saw how they were corrupting the beautiful earth. Thankfully, he managed to escape them when he was around 10, and lived on the streets for about two years before getting taken in by a kindly middle-aged couple, who understood him because both of them had strange appearances-blueish-white hair, to be exact. Nevertheless they lived together happily for two years, in perfect content... that is, until one day on his birthday, they took him out to celebrate, and on the way back they were involved in a hit-and-run incident. Both of his parents died on the spot, while Remi was plunged into a coma. The people from the Inferno, who had been watching him for a little while now, took him in. Five months later, he woke up only to find himself in a mysterious ship-the Inferno. Once he was informed for had happened, this is where his hatred for humanity surged up. The people offered him the job and he took it. Over the course of a year and a few months, Remi recovered physically, but never recovered fully from the trauma of the incident. This is where his deep hatred for humanity came from and still avoids humans he doesn't like to this day. 

NOTE: As an example of his synesthesia, (we'll use Dark's OC for this), to Remi, Feyre is 'navy blue all over, splotched with ink-dark black' and his presence is 'like a black wave crashing over him and overwhelming him when he's in a bad mood' or more commonly described as 'a sharp icy-cold feeling with a tangy, sour edge'. (That's why he always shivers or acts like he's cold around him)

You can use this site to understand it a bit better: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia - or you can ask me if you want.

PLEASE TRY YOUR BEST NOT TO DEPICT IT WRONG AS- I myself ain't the best at portraying mental problems but I have to say synesthesia is one of my favorites. When you publish a cast chapter I'll include in the 'Thoughts on ______' how Remi perceives them as (like what colors he associates them with) just for fun. I don't care what you do for his perceivation of other things.

personality║ Because of his synesthesia, Remi's personality is distinctly unique and he has a esoteric mindset. (meaning that it's not meant to be understood easily by those who don't have specific knowledge or insight on it) This already made him feel very estranged from the world as he didn't understand what was his problem-he assumed that everyone saw what he saw. Remi typically looks like he's quite literally in another world and tends to bump into things without realizing it. While he may seem like an airhead, however, in truth he hides a vengeful and simmering anger in his soul, directed primarily towards humans. He could literally torture an evil person with the most joy in his body-or at its lowest level you can see him glaring at people for apparently no reason, or turning away from them. Like, he could be walking around humming and looking like an airhead, then somebody walks up to him thinking he's an innocent bean, only for Remi to narrow his eyes and glare at them, then turn away and go somewhere else. He feels like he doesn't understand humans and as such appears lifeless or a bit puzzled at times or slightly irritated. Remi has an immensely difficult time letting people see 'the real him' or trusting them in fear of being bullied again and because humans = no. When he does talk to people he's usually quick to speak and not the loudest-the more he gets pestered by annoying people and the more he has to talk or the louder he has to talk, the more irritated he gets until he blows his top. He has a fear of being alone, because he constantly feels like it since no one can see the world like he does. Beneath that surface, though, lies someone who really just wants to have a warm family and home to confide in like he once had. At his best he's witty, dryly sarcastic, not afraid to voice his decisions, and boy does he have a temper. Remi is a writer, and loves to do so, although most of his stories have his anger towards humanity distilled into it and he basically never shows anybody his stories or drawings. (Over his dead body will you do so and you know you've achieved a very high level of friendship if he lets you see them) Because of his synesthesia, he's also an artist, and usually (on impulse) he'll paint a picture of the people that 'stand out' to him... in their colors and if he likes the results, hang it up on his walls. Remi hates oppression, being looked down on, and especially people torturing innocent people for no reason. He has a very strong sense of justice but it doesn't show often-neither does his hatred for perfection or rules. He's unpredictable in nature and can switch from being a daydreaming airhead to a killing, vengeful assassin in a blink of an eye.

summary of personality and backstory║ Remi has associative synesthesia, making him see and perceive things in colors, tastes, and smells instead of normal association. He was bullied because of this by both the people he knew and his parents. At age 10 he ran away, at age 13 he got adopted by a couple. He lived happily for two more years, but then they were involved a hit-and-run accident and the two died instantly. Remi survived, but barely and to this day hates humans. He's a person who prefers to avoid humanity in general and has a hard time trusting or opening up to anyone.

how they ended up joining the Legion║ The promise that they would find a way to let him have a family and save the Earth was enough to convince him, although it's more because he wanted to save Earth that he agreed. Also because he was the slightest bit grateful that they saved him, although he does think on some days he would've been better off with his deceased adoptive parents.

reputation║ Remi is known as that one weird dude aboard the Inferno who 'thinks and speaks in colors and waves' instead of normal thoughts. He's known as an unpredictable, unassuming guy. Or, the anti-Gemini. Or "The Pottery Guy" or "The guy who never shows up" or "The guy with a super-depressing last name" or "The guy with a girlish nickname" or "The guy who you shouldn't give anything sharp to" or- Yeah, I could go on for a long time ahahaha... To help him out, his teammates informed the others about his synesthesia, which was actually really helpful. But he's also that one kid who you don't want to pester for questions if he's in his room, there's and if there's pottery nearby because in their words "he can and he will throw it at your head and dayum they hurt."

preferred weapon║ pottery garrote (which he sharpens regularly) or a pottery needle for close combat. Other than that anything that's sharp, he's attracted to anything sharp and loves turning normal objects into weapons as a 'pastime'.

strengths║ Able to throw people off with his unassuming demeanor and his way of speech and personality, extremely proficient with his pottery tools, good knowledge of humans after doing nothing but watching them for a long time, good at 'reading' people with his natural observation skills and synesthesia. He is a very versatile individual skilled in many aspects. Remi's greatest strength however lies in his sheer ability to appear to be able to wiggle out of anything. You may be able to easily fell him with one heavy strike, but that's only if you can catch him first. Remi is a master of dodging and deflection. It's almost impossible to land a hit on him and before you know it he's already got you down on the count. Learned about pressure point from Fayre for self-defense (know a bit of martial arts but it really ain't for him) and usually either brutally hits their pressure points to make them fall down or strike them from a distance with his garrote/needles. And although he doesn't talk much, when he wants to get something, and really want's it, there's a high chance he'll get his way. His tongue is silver as they come and thanks to his observation skills, he can easily use talking to get out of most situations. He's famed to come up with a completely foolproof alibi with completely legitimate evidence in 10 seconds one time to explain why he didn't show up for training for a week.

weaknesses║ Absolutely horrible endurance. (the easiest way to win against him is to wear him out which doesn't take a lot but like hell will he tell anyone that) He's fit but not the strongest in physical terms. His synesthesia also weakens himself at strange times-as in, he'll be fighting, and then somebody gets hurt. His synesthesia will automatically, unconsciously, and immediately react to that, sending a powerful blast of whatever color that person is towards (most commonly red since it equals anger and pain) towards him, not only throwing him off beat but diverts his attention elsewhere. The blasts can be strong enough to knock him out, or just temporarily throw him off, but it can become dangerous if it happens at the wrong time. Very sensitive to everything happening around him and is constantly tense-nearly impossible to get him to loosen up. He's also distrusting of people and very anti-social, and while he doesn't show it his self-esteem is quite low thanks to his upbringing. Under stress, he becomes irritable and unrational. In that state, you don't want to try reasoning with him or you'll find yourself dead or with a needle up your chin-but he makes brash and rash decisions that normally aren't the best. Also, sometimes the trauma of his past will just suddenly jump onto him, frequently causing panic attacks and seizures. He is completely defenseless during that time and it's impossible to tell whenever it will happen. Remi describes it as 'a black wave' and sometimes it manifests as a panic disorder. 

likes║ His foster parents, Earth, his squad (though he'll never admit that), daydreaming, justice, writing, drawing, painting, warmness, a real family, doing pottery, among other secret hobbies

dislikes║ humanity, his biological parents, intense changes of emotions from those around him, people torturing others around him for no reason at all except enjoyment, loneliness, being left behind, annoying pestering people, being dragged into things he doesn't want to be dragged in, perfection, rules, oppression

best qualities║ Adaptable, intelligent, excelling at dodging, observant, unpredictable

worst qualities║ Vengeful, no empathy towards humans, resists change, no stamina/endurance

family║ His asshole biological parents- Arabella Mara-Cessair (Mom) and Troy Mara-Cessair (Dad). His deceased adoptive parents- Fayre Ortega (Mom) and Heath Ortega (Dad)

love interest║ Yep, of course! I believe Dark wants my OC to be with one of their OCs...? (Btw Dark see my comment at the end about this matter, thank you.)

do they know anyone not in their squad group?║ Yeah, he knows them all... by name that is. He knows all of Dark's OCs-mainly because of Roux who was attracted to his longish hair, but tends to avoid Feyre because A. he gets cold around him and B. really doesn't like him. He's like the epitome of everything Remi hates about humans... and not to mention Feyre teases him about his name on a near-constantly daily basis... sufficiently pissing him off. And also for the secret reason is that the fact that his name is so close to his deceased adoptive mom's name hurts his heart. What's that? Did I do this on purpose? No, I totally did not, not because I wanted to torture my OC- "STOP LYING, MY LADY!" "Why you-SHADDAP, EVAN! GET BACK TO BREAK!" (but yeah, I did, but also because I like the name)

[NOTE: THIS ANSWER MAY CHANGE AS I READ AND GET TO KNOW THE OTHER CHARACTERS BETTER]

habits║ Sharpening his garrote/needle at the worst times (he loves producing screeching sounds out of that just to annoy the others although he can do it silently) nibbling on his thumbnail when thinking, avoiding people that he doesn't fully trust not to turn evil-well, just people in general.

others║ Hmmm... Remi loves to read and study. He finds superpowers fascinating, but also loves to observe natural wonders. He has reading glasses but doesn't necessarily need them. As he's very sensitive to things around him, he detests big changes in moods from those around him-part of the reason why he prefers to be alone. He's a loner.

passwords║ Done!

quotes║

- "You ask me why I kill? Why not? It's no worse than what humanity has done to themselves anyways. Some people deserve to die."

- "WHAT WAIT WHY ARE YOU THROWING AWAY THAT TRASH BAG IT'S ONLY HALF FULL IT CAN BE FILLED MORE-"

- "USE BOTH SIDES OF THE PAPER GODDAMMIT!!!"

- "Gods, who turned on the lights?" (whenever a particularly happy person walks in or something really good happens, because when that happens 'blindingly bright sunshine starts radiating from that person' which sufficiently blinds him.)

- "Mm... I like being around you, your taste is just like grape popsicles... now I should find somebody with an eggplant taste to see how they go together... though would that be a good idea?"

trivia║

- developed a deep hatred for humankind very early on in life and if anything it's only grown stronger over the years.

- makes pottery, throws them at the wall(s) when angry, then turns the shards into weapons

- big on conservation. (to save the Earth) He's willing to go to dramatic lengths to do so, and constantly chides others to 'stop spreading the black' (his words for 'stop wasting resources')

- famous for skipping out on group meetings and meet-ups in general (the type that would say yes to a proposal to have a friends' day out just for them to stop bugging him then not show up)

- hates perfection almost as much as he hates humanity, mainly because "we humans are the same-pretending to be perfect when in fact all we are throwing a cloth over how terrible we really are." In fact, the first thing he does whenever entering the meeting room (when he does) is ruin something in it (I imagine the meeting rooms to be nice and perfect and even though he always ruins it somehow, the cleaning people always get it back to perfect shape every time, annoying him.) This habit of his also tends to annoy other people when it gets too extreme.

- has a really hard time refusing direct orders, especially if they give him a command with his full name (Remilius) with it for whatever reason-which he keeps a very close secret.

- doesn't mind people teasing him about his girly nickname, unless it comes to certain people...

- favorite numbers include 9, 3, 19, 33, 39... any variation of those numbers.

- loves snacking on Flamin' Hot Cheetos when working/reading and unless someone takes the bag away or he passes out from the heat. Has been found a total of three times passed out in his room because of this and rest assured, any Flamin' Hot Cheetos are very securely hidden away. In the boss's quarters. And the key is around the boss's neck 24/7.

- likes to put foods with the same coloring together-like sugar with rice-just for fun (with and without his synesthesia)

thoughts on the people aboard the Inferno║ He's okay with them but still avoids most of them because duh, they're humans and humans are no. And he's not sure about their ultimate goals, they seem pretty foolish to him, but to save Earth he'll try it-but has no qualms about kicking some of their superior's butts if needed.

thoughts on saving Earth║ Saving Earth? Sure, all the way! Saving humankind? Now that's a different story. He loves Earth and the wonders it can produce but views humankind as trash that needs to be exterminated ASAP.

are they happy about their role or where they hoping to be assigned to a different zodiac?║ Nah Remi doesn't mind, the only problem he's got is that Gemini is famous for being a social butterfly... which he is not. At. All.

when they see an Infect, what is their reaction?║ Kill them on the spot. Being an Infect is just another excuse for him to get rid of another human. Or at the very least get the heck outta there, he wants to first cleanse the Earth then die peacefully or with honor.

*raises hand* In Dark's own words-

"When motivation hits you hard."

I got this done in record time when at the start of the day I had no ideas at all and I'm not even that mentally tired. Of course, that means my chapter-publishing schedule got pushed back again, but whew! I'm really proud! This is my favorite OC so far! (sorry everyone) I'm starting to think that I'm more suited for creating OCs for other people than doing it on my own... 

Pauch, I have to give you my ultimate respects for this story. *bows* YOU 'AVE RIGHTFULLY EARNED MY FOLLOW, PAUCH!!! Can't believe I didn't do it earlier...

(Teensy question, Pauch, are you gonna make a cast chapter? Please say you are because that would be a monstrously helpful, both for you for writing and for me so I can look at other people's OCs. Thanks!)

And yeah I know this was a lot so if there's anything you want me to change or specify or any questions, feel free to ask me! ^O^ There's no shame in it haha ^v^'

And also thank Dark for motivating me to get this done. *bows to my unofficial sensei* Literally this is the longest form I've written since their 'WE ARE ALL KILLERS' applyfic. Hopefully I met your standards (I tried my best with less OP and more drawbacks) and for the love interest standards. *winces* Oof, Remi, I'm sorry for giving you a brand already... 

Speaking of which...

Hey Dark, after going through this I feel like he'd be better matched with Feyre instead of Fenrys... (gods their names are going to be the death of me one day I swear) Is that okay? And I know, I know, I didn't create a totally optimistic bean like I said I would (I somehow ended up with this guy) so... *waiting even though at this point I can't change my mind*

Anyways, Pauch, I hope you accept him and if there's anything I need to fix or missed, tell me!
