Medical Info: Fakir is in excellent shape. He is quite strong and very flexible, through years of dance and sword training. He almost never gets sick. He's come to deal well with wounds, and does not mind a little pain. However, his healing rate is nothing special.

Notes for the Psychics: When he was a small child, Fakir saw his parents literally ripped apart by ravens, protecting him. He had summoned the ravens. This has left the boy with issues. A lot of his life revolves around his greatest fears, failing to appropriately protect or aid Ahiru and Mytho, and death. He fears to get close to many people mainly out of a belief that they will be harmed because of it.
At this point in canon he is keeping under wraps his ability to write things that later come true. It was, after all, this ability that got his parents killed.
Random facts include: he's very well-read (especially fond of Shakespeare), he enjoys cooking, and he's very fond of animals.

What's okay to mention around him: Anything. That is not to say that he will react well. He will especially be upset with people talking about "fate." And killing. And definitely upset with anyone who threatens a friend. And he gets annoyed at a lot of little things, like love letters...

Abilities: He is a skilled swordfighter, dancer, and horseman.
At the moment, his potential ability as a storyspinner should not be considered.

Can I shapeshift/bodyswap/slash? I'd consider the first two with planning, no on the third.

Maim/Murder/Death: It's fine to beat him up during a fight in a plot or such. He gets pretty battered in canon anyway. As far as death goes, I'd need a good plot and/or reason, but it's possible. I've killed him before, after all.

Kissing/Hugging/Badtouch: Fakir likes his personal space. A lot. He's not fond of much contact that he doesn't initiate, and he seldom initiates it. Hugging will be fine, and possibly even reciprocated if you're someone he considers close. If you're not close, you'll at least get glared at by a stiff Fakir. Possibly shoved aside. Kissing, on the other hand, would probably cause massive embarrassment, blushing, and some flailing. Followed by anger. There might be a person he would accept kissing from down the line, but not at the moment. Badtouch will get you an attempted murder in return.

Easiest way to get on his good side: Be trying to help and/or protect other people.

Easiest way to get on his bad side: Threaten someone he likes. Especially his prince (Mytho) and princess (Ahiru/Tutu).

Favorite Person: Right now, it's still nominally Mytho, but Ahiru is getting really close. Honorable mention goes to Charon.

Favorite person met on the comm: lol none

Personality Notes: (from the application)
Fakir is brusque, often verging on being rude when he is not actually being so, with contemporaries, anyone he sees as somehow of lower status, or just with people he doesn't like. However, he is capable of being polite and even somewhat agreeable to people he feels deserve respect (such as teachers) or to people he actually does like. ...The respect thing is much more common. Or at least more commonly admitted to.

But the truth is, at heart, Fakir just wants to protect and help anything and anyone he can, plants, animals, people. But he is terrified of failing people and causing them further harm as a result, and thus tends to keep them at a distance. He does, when possible, seek out opportunities for helping animals, though.

That said, he has a healthy self-preservation instinct. Which for a long time he considers a weakness, until he learns to accept it and move past it. This "weakness" has given him a lot of nightmares and further insecurities about his worth to other people.

He is extremely disciplined. He is quite studious, and in excellent physical condition. He's a skilled dancer, swordfighter, and even cook. His favorite pastime is reading. Especially fiction. But he won't admit to that last part.

Fakir is in some ways very cynical about human nature. He becomes impatient with many "pointless" activities, which can be large scale social events or small things like writing love letters. He believes that he holds no illusions about what people will do to obtain what they want. At the same time, he does also believe that people who are genuinely trying to improve the world and help other people will succeed. As long as they're going about it in the right way, meaning a way he agrees with. (Please note, as canon progresses he becomes much more open to and accepting of alternate ways of achieving a noble end, and by the end of canon is relatively open-minded.) He may even, when pressed, admit that a lot of the population is really just trying to look out for each other. But you would have to really press.

Once he begins to open up to people a little more, Fakir is shown to be somewhat awkward, as he lacks a decent part of the necessary social vocabulary, but genuinely kind. He can be quite generous, and will work hard to serve a group (such as a club). He can even, given some pushes in the right direction, be protective without being stifling.
