Name: Godot
Age: ?? (he's 34)

Affiliation: Prosecutor's Office, City of ~~Japanifornia~~ Los Angeles

Abilities:
- Lawyer: Godot is learned, sharp, intellectual, and good at thinking on the fly. ~~He was widely celebrated for his talent as a defense attorney.~~ Though he's new at prosecution, others remark on his confidence and skill at the job and it's clear he is no amateur behind the bench.
- Charisma: Though he's currently using it to be dramatic and weird, Godot has undeniable charm and charisma that makes him good at winning people over.
- Coffee Aficionado: To put it lightly. Godot is obsessed with coffee, able to analyze a brew by smell and taste. He crafts his own high-quality blends and will never turn down the chance to try a new one, even if it's guaranteed to be terrible. His obscene caffeine tolerance is not actually a supernatural ability or even remarked on in canon, he's just that much of a freak.

[First Impressions]

Visual: Image ref. 6'1", Hispanic male with an (apparently) strong build. His white hair would be the most striking thing about him if not for the visor, which he is never without in public view. It gives off a constant faint red glow. Otherwise he dresses stylishly, normally seen in courtroom-appropriate business attire: a waistcoat, a button-down shirt with sleeve garters, a tie, slacks, and dress shoes. He keeps a carefully-tended goatee, has two hoop-piercings in his left ear, and wears a silver ring on his left index finger.

Aural: Godot has a low voice and usually a calm, collected tone. Notable for being a smooth-talker and highly dramatic, though can be quite threatening if he's mad. He can also apparently pull off dead-on accurate vocal impersonations of other people (complete with portrait and theme music, in game.) VA: Brandon Potter (Though I'm partial to SungWon Cho too.)

Olfactory: Coffee. A touch of aftershave, if you're close enough, but pretty much just coffee.

Demeanor: Rarely seen without either a cold, stoic expression or an inscrutable, practiced smile. Smooth and glib on a surface level, but also teasing, aloof, and occasionally abrasive. If he's trying to accomplish something or sincerely interested in talking to someone, he drops the dramatics but retains his calm, cool, unflappable attitude. Only when he's caught off-guard or riled up will shades of his more passionate nature show through.

[OOC]

Backtagging: Fine by me!
Threadhopping: Usually not a problem at all. Check if the hopped-in thread seems dramatic or something.
Fourthwalling: No thanks.

Prose or Brackets: No real preference either way. I will write to match whatever you prefer.

Offensive subjects: You won't bother me with anything.

Godot's backstory and thought processes include discussion of depression, medical trauma, chronic illness, internalized ableism and similar topics. Please let me know if you're sensitive to such concepts and I'll avoid them.

[IC]

Hugging this character: He'll be weirded out and uncomfortable unless you have a reason to do so. But it would be very funny.
Kissing this character: Ditto
Flirting with this character: Hilarious and highly encouraged
Fighting with this character: Let's chat. He can throw a punch and take a few of them, but despite the tough demeanor he sticks to verbal sparring (both out of decorum, and the fact his fighting prowess is very limited.)
Injuring this character: Discuss first please.
Killing this character: No
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Ask first

Psychic/Mental Information: Godot has no natural defenses against psychic powers or mind-reading. God help you for whatever his brain "reads" like right now though.

Magical Information: N/A, he has no defenses against this.

Medical Information: Godot is blind. His visor isn't a fashion statement, but an advanced device that allows him to see. Even with it, his eyesight is "pretty messed up;" he's effectively colorblind and specifically cannot see the color red.

Since he "crawled back from the depths of hell," Godot is in poor physical health. Canon doesn't go into details on his symptoms, but he mentions extensive damage to his central nervous system and organs (neurological issues, nerve damage, and chronic pain are very likely.) He requires frequent checkups and medical treatments to manage his condition.

Offensive Subjects and Triggers: Understandably, Godot is sensitive on the subject of his health. He accepts initial curiosity or light ribbing about his visor, but prying about it or attempts to discuss his physical condition will set him off like nothing else. He is also very touchy about the concept of poisoning.

[NSFW]

BIG OLD QUESTION MARK.

Godot either shrugs off flirtation or throws a little back in a playful manner, regardless of gender. He is, however, entirely uninterested in romantic relationships at this time (read: chronically and unhealthily hung up on a particular someone.) He will politely decline formal overtures at romance beyond a coffee date here and there.

Due to aforementioned hangups and also some severe body image issues, he is largely uninterested in sex. I never say never, though it would take chemistry, circumstances, and an intense amount of trust in the other person for his clothes to come off.
