PLAYER NAME: Eski CHARACTER NAME: James Moriarty / Archer of Shinjuku CANON: Fate / Grand Order BLURB: Moriarty is a 'Heroic Spirit' - a familiar who is the manifestation of his legacy in life, which is also called a Servant. The culprit behind an incident in a 'singularity' of shinjuku in 1999, he's a charismatic and evil man who is also apparently got a good side...or at least, that's what's shown when he shows up with no memories. (It's a long complicated story to go into here.)
Despite being known as a ruthless, calculating spider, he's surprisingly cheerful, lively, a bit of a prankster, and has a definite soft spot for children and teenage girls calling him 'papa' (I swear to god that's more innocent than it sounds). He's basically a jolly old man who can sometimes reveal he's much, much more than that, and show the napoleon of crime underneath.
AU INFORMATION
CHARACTER AU NAME: James Moriarty STUDENT OR FACULTY?: Faculty, teaching Mathmatics (obviously) CHARACTER BLURB: BACKSTORY
-His backstory is the same as the books, though following a bit more with the version FGO presents (him turning to crime after having his book be censored/blacklisted in academia instead of the implication he was a criminal even as a professor) up to the falls.
-He and Sherlock both fall into Reichenbach, Moriarty still bouncing off a rock (and breaking his back in the process) and going underwater.
-However, unknown to either of the two men, they'd accidentally set off a ritual connected to Reichenbach falls by doing what they did on just the right day and time, and basically connected their fates to each other. Normally, they'd have died too quickly to realize what happened, buuuut...Then Dracula turns Sherlock, and through the link, the nearly drowned Moriarty suddenly can't die.
-Due to the whole 'broken back' thing, Moriarty basically loses consciousness for 5 years and runs around on autopilot until his mind essentially gets used to the continual agony...which also basically leaves him with an absolutely absurd pain tolerance, because compared to having a compressed spine that shouldn't be functioning but is literally forced to due to magic bullshit, not much really hurts anymore!
-He also notes that while he's still warm, breathes (though he doesn't strictly need to), and bleeds, he definitely doesn't have a pulse, or really experiences hunger much anymore. Amused at the thought of somehow gaining immortality when he wasn't looking for it in the slightest, he goes about his merry way until the modern day, travelling all around the world and living the best he can, never really staying in one place very long due to the aforementioned Immortality...and that most of the time he's diving headlong into crime (and also testing out that immortality by dying, uh, a lot, some in controlled tests, and some because having your current alias 'die' by getting taken out by other criminal elements is a lot easier and more final than just leaving town, plus being able to collect on insurance money through other fake identities named as recipients).
-However, he does wonder why he gained immortality when he doesn't...really remember doing anything to gain it, so recently (about 5 years or so before the current time) he began to dip his toes into the more supernatural side of the world, running a few scams here and there because you gotta, and eventually coming to learn about Nightfall and Daybreak academy.
-When he learns about the academy, it's right after another of his identities in the human world has passed - and he figures that teaching again might be nice...and if he could potentially learn more about this 'Nightfall' thing, that would be an added bonus, and he may as well use his original name, because why the hell not?
-Gets hired over the school break, and is set to teach mathmatics in the fall. He's also keeping his immortality and the fact that he's basically a very weird undead as under wraps as possible, and be evasive when asked.
PRE-ESTABLISHED CR: -People who may or may not have seen him or heard about him / his various identities over the years. He's been around a long while, and notorious with some of his identities especially for those who may have been criminals, or potentially even victims of some of his schemes, though the appearance he's currently got is definitely not the one he's worn in the past.
-Faculty will most likely have been introduced to him, since he'll be more beginning to settle in when I introduce him. So we can work out the pleasantries side of things pretty quick!
DESIRED CR: -People who will pester him, or be willing to be adopted by him if they're a young, good hearted (or evil, or mischevious) youth/ teenager / child. Well okay not really ADOPTED but adopted in all but papers, that sort of thing.
-He'll also kind of be prone to accidental injury due to being unable to feel most pain anymore (akin to people who have CIPA disease), so uh, medical people, I'm sorry. Since he regenerates from injury as well, he'll complain about having to come in when it'll just heal up in like an hour anyway, God. He'll being using the cover story that he pretty much has a constant healing spell going at all times because he can't feel pain as a precaution.
-People who'll challenge him, or snark at him, or honestly just interact with him at all. I'm not picky and I'll take what I can get okay.
OTHER: - Moriarty has died a lot, and will potentially die and come back in the future, so if you're not cool with that then feel free to skip him. - He'll still have butterflies that pop in and out of existance randomly, though they're more just magical illusions than anything familiar or demonlike, and will pretty easily read as something that comes from 'him' for anyone sensitive enough to it. They can manipulate small items, and mostly serve as reminders / ways to grab small items he doesn't feel like going back for, like a pen or the remote. FEEL FREE TO HAVE PEOPLE ASK HIM ABOUT THIS, since a spell like that would be pretty complicated to have going on randomly and is a hint that he's kind of...shadier than he seems, SHOCKING!!
