« RECORD »


Disposition:

He has an excessive amount of pride-pride in his family name, his duty, his country and his appearance. The hatred he felt towards his father for abandoning him and his siblings went 1000 mph the opposite direction once he realized Mario's true intentions. He went from shunning his family name, to picking it up with gusto. He picked up where his father left off without a second though, almost completely shunning the 6 years of grief and anger he felt to the back of his mind. He buried that past deep in his heart and his sole focus became to destroy the Pillar Men.

And he has the strength to back it up, both mentally and physically. He's strong. His rough upbringing forced him into delinquency, and he wasted no time in taking back from the world that took everything from him, unleashing his anger on anyone who stepped in his way. The local mafias feared him, and he was known for violently bashing in heads with wrenches. He never killed anyone-his honor wouldn't allow it, but he teetered on the edge of becoming a killer with every interaction. He can defend himself in a fight with the confidence and experience to back it up.

Learning to focus energy into something positive, in lieu of violent, explosive anger was a task for him, but he managed to do it. His desire to destroy the Pillar Men helped hone his mental technique and while he's not a master, he's been a student for four years under an intense coach. He's got the mental fortitude and patience to persevere, even when it acts against his nature.

Kindness was pushed to wayside when he was growing up, but his training and a renowned sense of purpose allowed him to thrive as that person again. Despite his sometimes uninterested attitude, he's caring towards the people he truly likes. One of his teacher’s comments that "you're not so good at making friends yourself, but when you do it’s true love, isn’t it?" And that's 1000% how Caesar is. Casual, flirty relationships are one thing. The loyalty he has towards a select few is another. He keeps most people at a distance, but for those he adores, they're mean everything to him, even if he'll gives them attitude. He's cordial and acts pleasantly around people who don't irritate him-those people just happen to be few and far between.

Their friendship likely stems from their similarities-something Caesar would deny because he's a gigantic hypocrite. He gets angry at Jojo for acting a certain way, only to immediately mimic the action himself. When Jojo provokes him, he gets snappy, but wastes no time to taunting the guy in return. During their card game, Caesar calls him out for cheating, only to be caught for doing the same by Jojo not even two seconds later. They're frequently on the same wavelength, with Caesar able to predict JoJo’s "stupid ideas" with a scary amount of accuracy. When Jojo uses icicles to ladder his way back up a mountain, Caesar is immediately there to help him create it.

For all his progress, he's an incredibly emotional and hot-headed guy. He's easily provoked by friends and foes alike and certain trigger words can rile him up in record time. When that happens, he acts first and thinks later. The huge fight between him and Jojo is what spurs him into the Pillar men's trap and consequently, he gets killed.

Under pressure: There's no shortage of struggles in Caesar's life and through it all he has adapted to meet the challenge head on. Noctium is no exception to that. Arriving post death from a battle he's spent years preparing for will drive him to find out the outcome and his own hot-headed personality will keep him focused on survival and acclimating to this new place. Dwelling on the past keeps him on his toes-gives him the focus he needs to succeed and he will continue to persevere on this new world using the same old methods that have always driven him. For better or worse, his attitude remains primarily the same for a majority of his life, through every horrible situation he goes through. A spicy lad through and through, he may initially be hostile to some because of his hot-headed temper and the recent trauma he experienced, but he finds honor in his death and will quickly bounce back to his typical shitty self.

And being the huge flirt he is? He'll take to the idea of Synchrony pretty fast and thrive in this kind of setting.

Condition upon arrival: Post death after being beaten to hell and smashed by a rock.

Abilities: Caesar specific overview & Hamon/Ripple in general.

The short and sweet version of this bullshit power, if you don't want to read through 10000 wiki words about hamon, is that it's essentially a person's ability to breathe SO damn good that they're able to make some spicy energy in their body that can help/hurt others. It's the same energy that emits off the sun and it's super useful against vampires. Make sense?? Of course not. But that's where we are.

Because of his training, Caesar has a higher endurance than an average human. He's basically a beefy tank. He can long periods without food, water, and can take a hell of a beating.

Sticking ripple - Can channel hamon to parts of his body to stick to things. Notably does this on the oil pillar where he climbs up using his fingertips.

Repelling ripple - Can channel hamon to repel stuff in a person's body. Notably does this when Suzie is possessed by a creature. They repel it out of her.

Hypnosis - Can channel hamon to hypnotize a person through a kiss.

Healing - While he never does this on screen, most hamon users seem to have this ability. It can heal surface level wounds.

Bubble Launcher - Human version of a pokemon's bubble beam. Literally launches a barrage of super-powered bubbles at a person.

Bubble Barrier - Creates a single bubble that can absorb and trap a person.

Bubble Cutter - The Bubble Launcher but better. These are sharp bubbles that spin and slice.

Bubble Cutter Gliding - Bubble Cutter lite. Less sharp bubbles, but they're easier to control and aim.

Bubble Lenses - Multiple bubbles that absorb and reflect light, transforming them into wild laseresque beams. They can connect together and create a super powered beam.

Inventory: Cigarettes & matches

Gembond: Amethyst

Gem Location: Small purple gemstone on the small of his back.
