  1. Nicolo "Saber" Arman
  2. 1. State your character's general concept, in terms of their intended playstyle and what it is that they're trying to accomplish.
  3. Nicolo Harrier and survivalist.
  4. Nicolo is a young man born into a rare happy family of four, His mother and father had been members of EGGs before their discovery of the archives, Nicolo was a young teen at this time but he was already learning of the elite forces that EGGs could produce. "Heroes of Justice" he called them, at least until his brother failed his trial and became one of the husks.
  5.  
  6. Nicolo or Nick spent most of his teens and young adulthood first watching his parents take care of his brother and later taking on the role of caretaker himself as his parents seemed to grow more and more adverse to being around him. Nick still remembered his brothers name, a fact that surprised him seeing as his parents stopped referring to him by name years ago, Adam biblical and expressing the faith is family once had. Nick cared for his brother until his eventual bodily failure, Adam died age 24. Nick would be turning 20 this same year. Nick knew that to blame EGGs for his brothers condition would be a red herring and rather he knew that he needed to do something to make his brother's sacrifice worthwhile. The records had been discovered around this time. His family took little solace in the money EGGs gave to their "Loyalty in times of hardship", they barely touched it. Instead Nick would come to use much of it to fund his own training, he did not trust EGGs even if he knew they were not truly to blame, he would rather do things in a way that was fully in his control.
  7.  
  8. Nick began to learn martial arts, control of his inner energy and survival skills to assist him in his goals. Nick had decided he would do what he could to help his way. Nick became a bounty hunter, at first doing small repelling of beasts or rescue missions for those lost in the wilderness, later he would do raids on beast homes to exterminate the threat before it began. Somehow this caught the attention of his very own contract beast.
  9.  
  10. 2. What's your character's home like? What made them stand out to be scouted as EGGs? Were they glad to be able to leave home to serve the League, or do they get homesick and have to come back every now and then?
  11.  
  12. Nicolo was born in the craddle of the League, His parents being original members of EGGs led him to gain quite a bit in education and training. His distrust of EGGs after the body of his brother was presented to his family, how they grew apart and distant to one another makes him reluctant to stay within their walls. Strange as it may sound Nick prefers the danger of the wild the "pureness" of it's threat to being near his family or EGGs HQ.
  13.  
  14. The discovery of his level of training, his activity after leaving the home he was born to and his aggressive nature akin to beasts brought him into the eyes of EGGs. What sealed the deal for them to attempt recruitment was discovery of his contract beast. A Mew, gentle in demeanor and paternal in its interactions with Nick, The Contract Beast is known as Meryl and is in the process it seems with its goal to "heal" Nicks heart and mind. Meryl seems to honestly wish to comfort and protect Nick.
  15.  
  16. 3. What's the most important thing to your character that they've lost in their life? It could be a person, an opportunity, a philosophy, anything.
  17.  
  18. Nick's personality, his goals in life and his very drive to continue doing what he does lay in the loss of his brother. Years before Adam Arman's physical death, Nick lost his brother to a failed trial. His brother returned from where he was supposed to become a hero of justice as a husk, a body with no will to live requiring nick to care for him.
  19.  
  20. 4. What legendary does your character have? The legal legendaries are most Trios, mascot characters, (ie Mew or Jirachi), and other more "minor" legendaries. If you're unsure if a legendary is legal, ask me. What Concept does this Pact Beast represent? (Legendaries will have a single Aura, which will have effects based on this Concept. Don't worry about confining them to the ones in Blessed and the Damned) In the process of bonding with this Conceptual Pact Beast, what kind of trial did they have to overcome? (Be creative. A test of character of some sort related to the Concept is preferable to a straight trial by combat.) Despite the previous oneshot, all the legendaries are still open for use, just make sure you fluff the legend differently and have them embody a different concept. Fakemon are okay, as are especially snowflakey variants of non-legends.
  21.  
  22. Meryl a Motherly Mew joined Nick one day when it "felt" his pain and despite Nicks aggressive attempts to remove Meryl from his presence she has grown on him and is possibly the only person, being or thing he trusts besides himself. Meryl didn't have a very complex trial for Nick to complete but rather, she watches Nick even now. Her trial is an ongoing observation and response to Nicks internal thoughts and external actions. Meryl wishes for Nick to overcome his fury and pain to one day live in this world peacefully. When one day Nick can sleep without screams and live without bloodshed she will know he is ready to live without her.
  23.  
  24. 5. What does your character hate? If they don't truly hate anything, why? Can they stay calm around it? What does your character find most satisfying to do? Do they have any hobbies?
  25.  
  26. Nick hates the beasts. He hates the world he lives in and does everything in his power to fight the "enemy" he perceives in wild beasts and even other humans, many who he describes as selfish or dangerous to those around him. When encountering wild beasts it isn't Nicks first response to kill but rather to observe. Nick is aware that one man alone won't remove every problem in the world just by swinging their weapon, rather he hopes that by observing wild beasts he can find some weakness in any breed he comes across and one day possibly end their propagation through the world. Nick enjoys eating food cooked by good hands and prefers spicy food for his meals. He spends time not hunting or working for EGGs fixing his old motorcycle and generally picking things apart.
  27.  
  28. 6. How did your character bond with their first Pact Beast? Do they still use that Pact Beast, or was the Pact dissolved? Did that relationship mean anything for that character?
  29.  
  30. Meryl found Nick one night after a particularly dangerous nest extermination. She had felt the pain and anguish of the beasts but was more drawn to the fact the human boy could completely eclipse the sorrow as these beasts died with his own ongoing pain. She noted his body, full of scars and over exerted muscles and found him pitiful. The boy that Nick was would come to accept Meryl as his most important Maternal figure after his own family grew distant. Nick formed a bond with Meryl and although he still hunts wild beasts, his targets are no longer any beast he may find but rather those that have become a danger to locals or particularly territorial beasts. Many hunts ended with chasing the beasts off rather than slaughter.
  31.  
  32. To this day Nick and Meryl wander, now under EGGs missions. Nick is still aggressive and distrusting of others but his actions are no longer as hostile or extreme as before. Nick sees Meryl as his one and only friend while also as somewhat of a mother figure, She keeps him from going to far into his own thoughts.
  33.  
  34. 7. What does your character see themselves trying to accomplish in the future? How does that tie in to their work as EGGs right now? Does your character believe in destiny?
  35.  
  36. Nick is a hunter, he does missions for EGGs hoping one day that this will all end. That he won't have to worry about Beasts or other boogymen. He searches for a way to cure the viruses that still remain and end the Beast nests. If all else fails he secretly hopes for more people to make bonds with Contract beasts like Meryl, At least then they can have someone who knows them and is willing to fight alongside them. No one should have to shoulder everything they fear alone.
  37.  
  38. Nick may not believe in destiny but now looking back he does believe something great happened the day Meryl found him.
  39.  
  40. 8. Pick a song that resonates with your character, preferably something you can link on youtube or whatnot. Why does it resonate? Don't worry about it being an outright defining "theme", it doesn't have to be that strong.
  41.  
  42. https://youtu.be/HwSZBbYiQ-o Marty Friedman feat. Jean-Ken Johnny, KenKen / The Perfect World. Nick doesn't like this world.
  43. He wishes for the beasts to fall and for mankind to survive. But... in the end Nick cherishes his relationship with Meryl and knows for his dreams to happen he would lose her. With that he knows the day his dreams reach fruition that that's the day he will close his eyes for a last time, not to wake up screaming but to go with Meryl.
  44.  
  45. 9. List any expectations you have for this oneshot SHORT CAMPAIGN, any input you want to give on the setting, and other general things here.
  46.  
  47. I plan to try to learn the PMJ system while making stories with all who play in the game. I have written up a kinda gritty nihilistic character but I as a player will enjoy the opportunity to meet other players and make stories we can recall fondly.
  48.
