A note for CR AU applications
Ruby City does allow previous game history/CR to be brought over on a case by case basis. If you want to include this in your application please add additional sections for PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT and PREVIOUS GAME HISTORY beneath the Personality and Background/History sections.

In these additional sections we would like to see a brief outline of your character's previous game history and how it potentially impacted on and altered their canon personality.

Amaimon | Ao No Exorcist | No Reserve | 2 of 3

[demonicdiabetes]

Personality: Odd is not enough to describe the demon known as Amaimon, The Earth King. This strange individual certainly stands out in a crowd of people, both physically and psicologically. He has interacted with humans very little in his life, leaving his people skills nearing zero, which, coupled with his fixating stare and often relaxed pose leads to a recipe for disaster. He takes nearly everything in life in a relaxed, laid back way, be it eating insane amounts of food, or fighting the son of satan. He rarely diverts from this mindset, his tone of voice bland and uninterested and his face with a very small plethora of expressions, but this does not mean he is emotionless. Amaimon is largely driven by his emotions and food, albeit not making it explicitly obvious in the way he expresses himself. This regularly does not cause much trouble, but some times, when his worst impulses kick in, such as disobeying his brother's clear orders when it comes not not killing anyone, they can become a bit of an issue. He eventually did not, but if left to his own devices he would have done so in a blink of an eye. He detests to lose, and grows angry when he is denied a way to change that, showing a somewhat competitive nature. Another thing that annoys him is people making fun of his hairstyle. He was called "Broccoli" more than once in the series, and it certainly was a thing that he did not take lightly to. He easily finds ways to distract himself from any duties he has to do, as he is a bit of an air head. Defects aside, Amaimon is a very curious person, and if he gets his eye on something that interests him slightly, he will be excited to research more on it and educate himself further. He loves to "play", but his definition of the word is probably different than what we see it. In his eyes, a deadly sword fight with Rin is a wonderful game, and he even shakes his rear at him, taunting him with Rin's sword in his posession, showing how relaxed and easygoing he is with things. In a future fight, after taunting Rin enough to the point of making him draw his sword, he is shown as very amused, letting out a loud cackle and sounding very excited when he went in to attack him head on.

All in all, Amaimon is a person demon vastly led by his desires, but other than his more problematic impulses and his odd solutions to boredom, his fixating stare, his dull emotionless face and bland tone of voice, not to mention deadly demonic powers, as is his birthright as one of the sons of satan.

First Person:
Oooh.

[ That is all that Amaimon says as he steps out of the train and looks at the looming city. It was a bit similar to True Cross Academy, although the Academy was in fact much more majestic. After he finishes admiring the horizon, he notices an odd device in his pocket, which he looks at for a minute or so, and immediately after begins pressing random buttons, accidentally activating the video function. Following this, believing the device not to be of any good use, Amaimon puts it in his mouth and bites down hard. Anyone unlucky enough to be watching the video stream woill be met with the inside of his mouth, which is basically normal, with the exception of pointy teeth. Obviously biting down the device leads to nothing, as it seemed to be oddly indestructible, so he just spaces out and focuses on getting more info on where the hell he was. His attention turns to a nearby poster, and his eyes widen slightly. ]

Ruby City?

[ Such a pompous name has to be one of his brother’s jests, and as such, he believes he should explore it as much as he could. His curiosity demands him to go out of the station, and immediately after he jumps to the top of a nearby building to get a good view of the city. ]

A new playground...?

[ It wasn’t odd of his brother pulling practical japeries like this, so Amaimon simply went along with it. He crouches, and begins biting his nails, eyeing down whoever might’ve been passing at that moment. ]

I have a feeling this is gonna be fun...



Third Person: Amaimon wandered around the seemingly empty city. As a new place he had to adapt to, he was intent on finding out anything he could about it, as curious is a very good adjective to describe him with.
He hopped around buildings like a hyperactive grasshopper, but sadly, he couldn’t find anything he could read that would provide him with more information. A first glance at him would only reveal an odd looking kid, but the power he held became obvious as he easily traversed through the city like a small child going all out in a park, effortlessly showing off just how casual it was for him to stroll along the rooftops. He couldn’t find his brother, or any familiar faces for that fact, so the obvious course of action was to go to the building that stood out the most, and that was the clock tower.
Sitting at its very peak, he eyed down the city, his expression still the trademark creepy and dull. He jumped, doing a flip, and then two, and landing on the city floor with a landing that would have gotten him a gold at the olympics.
He gave a couple of steps back, and plopped down, sitting on the stairs with a bored look. “Booring!” He said, in a childish tone. “Brother, for how long are you going to keep this up?” He questioned the air, leaning back and staring at the sky.
