EMP ☾ Final Fantasy XVI
Name:Lysander
Contact: DM or Discord: dethRuki
ᛗ CHARACTER
Name: Joshua Rosfield
Canon: Final Fantasy XVI
Brief Info: Joshua began life as the sweetest bean you can imagine. Kind, caring, thoughtful. He was born sick and suffers a life long illness, which he stubbornly ignores much to his physicker’s chagrin. However, when he was an infant he awoke as the Dominant of the Phoenix, one of 8 hosts to the pieces of God™. This means he can transform into a giant fire bird and rain fiery death down upon people. It also means he can heal people. He cannot bring people back from the dead. Being the Phoenix is not at all important and doesn’t shape the entirety of his life(lie). It’s not like his kingdom reveres the Phoenix above anything(also a lie).
Through a terrible series of events Joshua loses his family, his kingdom, and his life at the tender age of 12. Sorta. His dad got beheaded in front of him, his brother disappeared after sorta maybe killing Joshua twice, and his mother was the one who organized the coup to sell their kingdom up the river. Joshua awakens from a magic coma and spends the rest of his life searching for and protecting his older brother in his fight against God™ to liberate mankind.
Vessel Type & General ideas: I mean the easy option is to have him be a Token//Pyromancer, which could be fun to play with having his fires become more destructive and out of control. He is one to keep his emotions in check so watching his fire and heat give that away would be pretty neat.
Token//Bloodwright would be far more interesting to play with, I think. Especially since he is always coughing up his own blood anyway. Might as well put it to use!! But Joshua is a crafty man and I think he could get lost a little in the intricacies of blood magic, probably to his detriment. Get lost in the sauce as one does.
I really want to play as a Joshua who is slowly becoming corrupted. The man locks God™ in his chest and the canon didn’t have it infect him! What a missed opportunity!! But basically I want to have the goodest boy falling to the baddest instincts and mind/body madness this game seems to offer. I want to explore him having to form deep bonds with people, a thing he has avoided since he has a terminal illness. Too bad Joshua; get cherished, get fucked, and get fucked up.

Ahhhh!! I read your info sheet and the demeanor section and I love him. I want to wrap the Forsaken up in a blanket and give him some hot chocolate, and maybe a kiss on the top of the head. I think Joshua would be an excellent human for him to get drawn to considering... well, Joshua was also forsaken and became lost for roughly 18 years (not sure how many spoilers you want to avoid, so I'll leave it vague there). Joshua is also a very curious person and has still remained fairly soft and caring. (He's just a little more sassy and a lot more distant.) But I think Joshua would be very interested in learning about the Forsaken and would want to understand him. But you know... deep personal bonding hard...

And aaa thank you thank you! The Forsaken is just going to collect all of the Lost in Somnia and definitely somehow avoid tethering with all of them (spoiler, it's not going well). Points to eyes points to you... I will be looking for you on the TDM!
no subject
And now I have fully read his powers and his background. Again, I wish to adopt the Forsaken. I look forward to threading with you on the TDM!!!

My guy is also prone to deification of anyone nice to him, so that Joshua is an actual holy being (who is very pretty) is very 👀 fun.
I also plan on having Harry being very eager to throw his humanity away in favor of being a big monster, if you’re interested in having a horrible but well meaning influence.

Oh buddy! Joshua won’t be able to read that as the red flag it is since he grew up with that behavior since he was a child. Even when he awoke from his magic coma he found he was saved by the cult of The Undying, which literally worship the Phoenix. Joshua’s brother Clive, the mc, is very uncomfortable about them and Joshua is just like “eh, you have your people and I have mine.”
I am very very interested in having a horrible, but well meaning influence!! Especially in the form of a monster ✨
Harry seems to be simultaneously a delight and a sad man! I am also canonblind, but I love learning through osmosis of RP. I also want to wrap him up in a blanket and give him a hot chocolate.
