Character Information
Character Name: Reyson
Character Pronouns: he/him
Canon: Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Canon Age: approx 100 (appears 20)
Canon Point: Slightly post-game, enough to dig into the politics mentioned in his epilogue, not enough for him to look any older.
Canon Link: Wiki

AU Information
AU Name: Reyson Falkenrath
AU Age: 20
Physical Differences: As a human, and not a magical birdman, Reyson doesn't have wings or pointed ears or enhanced senses. He's significantly stronger, because OG Reyson is the frailest little meowmeow in the land. He's still a slender aristocratic twink but he can open a jar on his own.
AU History:
- Fancy noble from a good family in the Red Court's territory
- At some point during his childhood Reyson's parents insult a powerful vampire who decides to just slow burn indirectly ruin their entire lives as performance art. Various family members die or meet misfortune over the next decade.
- A series of fucked up murders is linked to the family, the local village thinks this is bad enough to burn their house down over it.
- Some NPC vampire (or I retcon a PC into it later if we mutually want to meld our backstories) who has been witnessing this whole procedure disapproves for inscrutable personal reasons, drags Reyson's half-dead body out of the rubble, gets him back on his feet, and is like hey. Come to the castle and become a vampire so you can find out the truth and get some revenge.
- And then he went to the castle to become a vampire and get his revenge and then he unlived happily ever after....?
AU Personality:
Less into the balance of nature and order, given that he signed up to be an unnatural bloodslurping undead creature. He doesn't eat red meat in this AU but because he just doesn't like the idea of eating animals, he does not like that they don't know that they are for eating and he is kind of a soft touch and he saw a cow once and it looked at him with big brown eyes and let him pet it on the nose. Fish are fine. You know, until he becomes a vampire and it's all blood all the time. There is a significant amount of cognitive dissonance that is going to be happening with him. (Canon Reyson is a vegetarian because of biology reasons, he would love to eat meat and worms but he cannot.)
Cares more about proper behavior and staying in line because vampires are quite threatening and he doesn't have the extensive social power and ability to fly away from situations that he does in canon. He will still do stupid reckless things constantly, he is just very aware that he should not. There are a lot more people who outrank him so he will be more polite to his elders in general.
Also he is the same species or at least base species as everyone else so he's less uh. There's a lot of specific last of his kind forest prince baggage he does not have that has been replaced with baggage that comes from being from a more traditional non-magical nobleman who has had to consider taxes and roads and inheritances and so on. And his brain is wired differently due to being a full time primate and not having mystical empathy powers that he has also been clamping down hard on for twenty years. So I won't be doing the usual bird instincts in the background until he regains that part of himself, if he does. Canon Reyson would have never climbed a tree in his life because he can fly, this one likes high places but from towers and such because he doesn't go climbing trees like some sort of peasant. That kind of thing. He ends up being pretty similar to his canon self on the surface but he's coming that way from a completely different direction.

Novice Information
Starting Season: Second.
Maker: Foundling
Anticipated Court: Gold. There are shallow reasons, like the color scheme and his canon self's path as an iron hand in a silk glove style noble diplomat with empathy powers, and he is still similar enough to that self for that end goal to click well for him... But mostly it is his need to get involved with politics and move things around. He's very bossy!
He's also very aggressive and into art and expressing oneself so he might end up being better in Red. Having him be poached would be really funny - shit, am I talking myself into it on the app? I might be.
