Protagonist [Mai] | Amnesia | Reserved
NAME: Cal
AGE: 23!
PREFERRED CONTACT: plurk:
CHARACTERS IN GAME: N/A
no subject
NAME: Mai ; as a note, the character doesn't have a default name, but this is one of the generally accepted fan names for her
AGE: 19
CANON: Amnesia
CANON POINT: Ukyo-route, post-august 8th bad end
CANON INFORMATION: A link!
PERSONALITY:
First and foremost, Mai is a semi-silent protagonist, a la the Persona protagonists. Her choices are the only pieces of dialogue we hear from her (until the very end of Ukyo's route), and those are player chosen. That said, there's a great deal of personality that is implied in how she's spoken about, her past actions, her future actions and the choices she makes.
It's stated in canon that having Orion crash into her soul and jar loose her memories did some damage to her personality as well, which explains why she's so quiet and muted throughout everything. All of the characters remark on how strange it is that she's being so polite and quiet, and a number of them are extremely concerned--she's not usually such a wilting violet, but until she gets her memories back, she's unable to do much about it.
Thankfully, as she regains more of her memories (and as Orion fades away more), she starts to return to her proper personality, bit by bit, growing more determined, having more agency and shaking off the quiet muted girl she's been.
But at the moment she's coming in from, she's still missing a good portion of her memories. She has regained a few, but she'll still be struggling to regain the rest as she goes along, and so she's still rather passive and quiet. Honestly, her passivity gets her into a great deal of trouble; when people push her to do something, she'll usually do it and without much argument. At first glance, she's honestly an extremely obedient person, willing to politely do whatever a person says if it will make them happy or make their lives easier.
She's polite, demure, sincere--all of the traits one would expect from a self-inserty protag-chan in an otome game.
But of course, that's not all there is to her at all. She's obedient and passive, but only until you hit the point of no return--and then she has a backbone of steel. There are a few things she refuses to bend on, and most of all is her concern for others. She'll go out of her way to help a complete stranger; someone she knows and cares about only is further assured that she will do whatever it takes to make sure that they're alright. She'll do this even if it means going out in a dangerous storm on a day when she knows the entire world is out to get her, just to be sure that he'll be alright.
Because she's not concerned for her own self that much. She's much, much more concerned for other people, constantly fretting over them or trying to do her best to help them sort out their problems or make them feel better. Honestly, her own self-preservation instincts are more than a little broken; whether it's just how she is or it's a consequence of her dying a ton of times throughout the time loops is up for interpretation. Regardless, she's willing to give up on surviving, and it is thinking of Ukyo's dream that convinces her to keep trying to live, not her own life.
It's a trend for her, though. Putting other people first is a lifestyle for her.
Furthermore, despite her passivity, her willpower is off the charts. It's made plain that Ikki, who has the power to charm women with his eyes, is first interested in her because she's not affected by his eyes. When he asks her why, it becomes clear that it's simply because she decided she wasn't going to be. She had the willpower to remove that influence, because she felt so strongly against it.
This is all a little different from how she truly is when she has all of her memories back, of course. Everyone comments on how strange it is that she's being overly polite; while she's still a reasonably polite person, she's definitely the sort to easily joke around her friends, instead of always standing on ceremony with them. In fact, she really wasn't the sort to be afraid of conflict at all, but that's been lost alongside her memories.
But ultimately, even without her memories, she's a very strong person. She's an extremely hard worker (even when she has no idea what she's doing because of her amnesia, she does her absolute best), she rarely cries, and she doesn't crumble despite the difficulty of her situation. No matter how bad things get, she always keeps fighting, even if quietly (such as finding a way out of the cage Toma stuck her in, despite having nowhere else to go).
And on top of that, her ability to forgive is simply ridiculous. She forgives Toma for said cage incident, as well as drugging her, and she forgives Ukyo for killing her multiple times. She's willing to speak with, help, and listen to both of them despite what they did to her. Her ability to forgive is her best and most prominent trait, and though it gets her into trouble, it's something that will simply never change about her. She doesn't hold grudges. Instead, she simply does her best to move forward, no matter what happened in the past.
So while she's quiet and passive now, there are times when the rest of her personality shines through quite clearly, and the more she retrieves her memories and her own self, the more like herself she'll be. Eventually.
ABILITIES:
As a completely ordinary, average human, she doesn't have any abilities that will be of much use to her here. She does possess an extraordinary amount of willpower, to the point where she can shake off something that is established to work on most everyone else. She also possesses forgiveness at jesus levels, not that that's an ability so much as a liability, but it is what it is.
You can expect standard otome fare from her otherwise--klutziness, tripping, and the works. She is rather resourceful, able to find her way out of a cage (thanks Toma) and pick a lock with one of her bobby pins (though admittedly not a very strong lock). But otherwise, she's perfectly normal; if anything, she's much more fragile even than a normal human.
She works at a maid cafe, so she's good at all that that would entail, including brewing tea and coffee, making sweets and the like, and being absolutely adorable.
She has forgotten most of her skills otherwise. Thanks, amnesia. I wasn't kidding when I said she has no skills that will be of any use.
INVENTORY:
- One cute white girly purse
- One cell phone in said purse, which won't have service
that's it
MEMORY ALTERATION:
As Mai's big thing is having amnesia, it seems most fitting to me that she simply wouldn't remember how she arrived at all. She won't be able to remember how she got there, or why she's there, but she'll accept that it probably has something to do with her missing memories and with regaining them, and that will be enough to keep her focused on the task at hand.
SAMPLE: Here, from the TDM. There are a few more here from where I previously played her, if you need more!
