Abilities
Character's Canon Abilities: This details his abilities pretty well. He's a musician first and a fighter second, so if he has to get his hands dirty he'll leave that to the water under his control. This can range from conjuring up violent torrents of water that burst from the ground to simple, seemingly harmless bubbles that can explode, and even copies of himself.
Aditionally, he shares some abilities with other members of the Organization; utilizing corridors of darkness to travel between worlds (though in SP, this would be limited to city limits), command over lesser Nobodies* (Dusks + his own special ones; Dancers, and simple spells such as Cure, Blizzard, Aero, Thunder, and Fire.
Conditional: N/A
Weapons: Demyx, being a musician, carries a sitar called Arpeggio. Like other Nobodies, he can summon this weapon whenever he wants, though it's rarely used as a weapon. He'd rather just kick back and play music instead.
History/Personality/Plans/etc.
Character History: Here!
Point in Canon: Just after his second and final fight with Sora & Co. in Hollow Bastion. This marked him the sixth Nobody to fade in the Organization just before Xaldin.
Conditional: Brief summary of previous RP history: N/A
Character Personality: The first rule about Demyx: He is a Nobody. He has no heart, thus no emotions. Sure, he'll play the part of The Nice Guy but it's all an act. His happiness? An act. His fear? An act. Anger? Also an act. Despite all this, he'll do his best to play the part and even befriend people--but it's not real. There's no 'love' in any of his friendships no matter how hard he or the other person tries. Affection? Sure, but don't expect him to stick his neck out. If it came to a fight or flight there's a fairly high chance in 'flight'. Every Nobody for themselves, after all.
Putting these flaws aside, Demyx has a habit of spitting in danger's face, though whether its intentional or not is always thrown up to debate--that is, depending on the situation. At one point in time when Xaldin enters his room in the middle of the night while Demyx was playing his sitar, he displayed blatant annoyance ("Is it too hard to at least knock before barging into people's rooms?"), and even continued to play after Xaldin had remarked that 'Nobodies need rest too,' and that they had to 'rest to store their power' before he left. Of course this doesn't go without saying that he doesn't fear some of the other members; He admits that he thinks Larxene is 'scary', considers her to be a 'witch' and enjoys days when she isn't around.
Thirdly, he's one of the laziest members in the Organization. He claims several times that he's "not cut out for combat," preferring that he'd rather have the Organization assign him to recon or 'something un-violent,' hinting that he may be a pacifist at heart. Early on in a mission with Roxas he displays a further reluctance to enter the Coliseum when Roxas suggested that he'd be 'another aspiring hero here for training', retorting with "Training? That sounds like work, which means sweating. Which is gross," and when the suggestion for staying outside came into question, Demyx added that he'd take care of the Heartless outside while Roxas handled the ones inside. However, what Roxas didn't know is Demyx was planning to take a nap instead of actually doing his job. He later states that it's "rare" that he does anything that strenuous. However, just because he prefers recon doesn't mean he enjoys it. At one point he 'asks' that Roxas show him "how it's done," suggesting that he pushes his work onto other members when he can get the chance. Even later he states "Investigating suspicious spots is the first lesson in Recon 101! (Getting somebody else to do it for you is lesson two)."
Though just because he's a lazy, cowardly Nobody doesn't mean he isn't a force to be reckoned with. Like his element he can appear gentle, harmless, and pretty much fun to be around but this image can be dropped in an instant to show his true side; deep down he's sly, manipulative, callous, heartless and most of all, dangerous. Out of all the Nobodies he's the one who clings to his memories, claiming that they really do have hearts. When he greeted Sora in Hollow Bastion and had weapons drawn, he shrank back. When the comment of lacking a heart was made, he 'protested' with "We do too have hearts! Don't be mad!" When he was called out on it, he dropped his happy-go-lucky mask. This was essentially the straw that broke the camel's back. Water looks calm, gentle, and shallow at a first glance but if you go out too far... Well.
How well can you swim?
Conditional: Personality development in previous game: N/A
Character Plans: Considering how many castmates Demyx'll have, he'll be able to keep himself busy in one way or another. Depending on the rest of the Organization and his own personal thoughts, chances are he'll end up joining with either SERO or AGI. Of course if he does happen to side with either one and get stuck with a job he'll be underachieving just as much as he did back home. Hardly working and cruising on someone elses' coattails until he gets busted for it.
Appearance/PB: Right here!
