Character info
Series/Fandom: Final Fantasy VII
Character's Name: Loz
Character's Sex: Male
Character's Age: It never explicitly says, but he can't be any more than a year old. Appearance-wise, he seems to be a young man-- late teens, early twenties.
Canon point: Just after the highway chase after Kadaj obtained Jenova's remains in Advent Children.
Abilities: Loz is physically the strongest of the three Remnants, accented by the fact that he's extremely well-built and bulkier than his brothers. This point is only proved when you witness him punching through gigantic trees in the Forgotten Capital and knocking them down, or flinging a motorcycle at Cloud with just his legs. Because of this immense amount of strength, Loz tends to fight most often with his own body as a weapon, though with less finesse than a martial artist like Tifa. On his person, however, he keeps with him Dual Hound (a pilebunker that is also capable of shooting out electricity and strong enough on its own to turn stone into rubble) and a Velvet Nightmare (basically a gunblade), wielding them both with his left hand. The Dual Hound is Loz's primary weapon of choice.
In addition to his freakish strength, Loz is also capable of breaking into such high speeds that he leaves afterimages when he runs full-speed. It almost gives the illusion of him teleporting in some cases.
He, like Kadaj and Yazoo, is able to of summoning
Shadow Creepers, but I'm willing to nix this ability for Star Kingdom, since I doubt he would use it much to begin with and there's seemingly no limit to how many they can summon at a time.
Background: "
You wanna play?"
Appearance: [
Full Body]
Personality: Of all of Sephiroth's Remnants, Loz is the most childish in behavior... and intellect. Not only is he the embodiment of Sephiroth's physical strength and speed, but also of his emotions towards "Mother". As such, he is incredibly sensitive and it's implied he starts crying often. It's this raw emotion and emphasis on strength over intellect that brings out that aforementioned immaturity. When in combat with another, he's often seen grinning (or pouting when it's not going his way) and treating it like a game; he even outright demands Tifa to play with him. This trait goes beyond fighting, as well. He often makes sound effects to match his actions, like 'brummm!' when driving his motorcycle off a cliff during the opening or 'bangbang!' when shooting at Cloud during a highway chase. To boot, his insults generally don't go beyond calling someone a "meanie" or something to that effect. In fact, he's really... the epitome of a derp. The term "all brawn and no brain" rings rather true for him, sadly, as a lot of things end up going right over his head. That isn't to say he's a total idiot, though; he's seen operating a cellphone after all. He's just a bit on a dense side.
That said, don't let the child-like behavior have you believe he's any less of a formidable threat. Belying his puppy-ness is a truly ruthless and brutish guy who understands nothing of the word "restraint". Like his brothers, he thrives on destruction and conflict and cares only about Mother. It makes no difference to him whether he pummels the living hell out of someone for insulting Mother or for fun; they'll receive no mercy either way. After all, he was capable of brutally torturing Tseng and Elena. He's also extremely persistent; if he really wants something, he'll keep trying until either he gets it or someone's knocked his lights out. In addition, he constantly repeats things until he gets a straightforward answer (i.e. asking Tifa "Where's Mother?").
Like his brothers, Loz has quite a one-track mind, although he's significantly more forward about it. The vast majority of his lines seem to center around her in some form or another, making obvious his aforementioned embodiment of the attachment towards Jenova. He's also extremely confident in his own abilities, to the point of arrogance. He treats everything like a game and even after getting his ass handed to him the first time by Tifa, he just breaks out of the rubble and says that it's time to stop playing. Being defeated, to him, just means he needs to take it to the next level the next time. To further accent that playful nature, Loz can be seen teasing his brothers on a couple occassions, although it seems more like an attempt to try and defend himself from their own teasing (especially about him crying).
When not trying to beat someone's face in, he's more often than not content to stand in the background and let one of his brothers do the talking. He follows Kadaj without question (with the exception of passing on to the Lifestream), happy so long as they get Mother.
Samples
Action/Journal Sample:
--ease don't hurt me, k-kupo! [The communicator has clattered to the ground it seems, giving anyone watching a front-row seat to the scene unfolding. A silver-haired man in all black towers over the moogle, looking down on it with a disgusted expression.] Then YOU took me away from Mother and my brothers!
N-No, kupo! It was the--
Don't lie! [Frustrated, confused, and on the verge of tears, Loz grabs the moogle by its pom-pom and starts shaking it.] Tell me where you're hiding them!
K-KUPOOO-O-O! I k-know nothi-i-ing!
You told me you had answers! I don't like this GAME!
[And Loz proceeds to fling the moogle down the street. Luckily, one can hear a loud 'BOFF!' in the background, implying something broke the moogle's fall. It's well enough to panic and start running, but Loz doesn't like that either.] HEY! I'm not done! [With that, the last thing the feed sees is the bottom of Loz's boot accidentally landing on top of it.]
RP Sample: Outside, Loz stood surrounded by a group of fighters of various specialties. He didn't care to note said specialties, mind-- just that they were looking for a little violence. He wore a grin that spread from one ear to the other and began cracking his knuckles with impressive volume.
"You wanna play, huh? All of you?" He paused, looking between them all. "Sounds fun. I'll even let you go first!"
And they did. They all lunged and attacked at once, but to no avail. Loz already bulldozed through one fighter before the attacks even landed. He said he'd let them go first-- that didn't mean he had to wait for an attack to hit. He plunged Dual Hound through one's chest, sent a boot into another's face, and generally made minced meat of his attackers. When he was finished, he stood amidst the fallen and shifted his weight from one foot to another, like an antsy kid.
"...That's it? You're all a bunch of wimps!"
He kicked one of them in the ribs and pouted a little. "That was too easy. Do you have stronger friends?" No answer. He kicked one of them again. "Hey! Answer when somebody talks to you!"
