Casshern SINSCharacter Age: Unknown, looks teenaged
Canon:The world is dying. Both humans and robots are heading towards extinction and it is the fault of one man. Casshern. Except he doesn't remember what he did and why. All he knows that he destroyed the light of the world, Luna, and that he has to atone for his sins, no matter what. This might be a bit tricky since almost every single individual on the planet wants to see him dead....
Casshern is an enigma to all, even himself. Amnesiac from the time he killed Luna, he knows nothing of his past or even whether he's human or robot. Casshern is a quiet, brooding individual, prone to strong bouts of contemplation, questioning the value of his life and in agony over what he has done to survive and the people he couldn't save. At the same time, he's compassionate, dislikes fighting and yet is quick to anger when witnessing any kind of injustice.
Sample Post:
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I take a look at my life and realize there is nothing left.
But then I find myself here, in this unknown place where the ruin has not reached and the world is still green and beautiful. How is this possible? Am I no longer the destroyer of the world? These questions must be answered and I will find answers eventually if I keep exploring this green plain where trees that rise from the ground. They are covered in strange clothing of mysterious shapes and sizes. I pluck one from the branches and there's a note attached with it. "If you're not wearing underwear today, this is for you~ ♥". I'm not wearing any underwear, so this must be necessary to proceed. Very well, I shall wear this underwear today. For the good of this world, it's the least I can do.
In the distance, I see ruined humans approaching me. Some of them are missing their eyes and others seem to be eating eyes, muttering the words, "clamped" over and over again. And their wounds, they will not heal. How is that? Cannibalism amongst humans. Was this my fault too? Did I drive humanity to start wasting their flesh, becoming green-coloured and start eating each other? Is there no end to my sins? I tried to so hard and got so far, in the end, it doesn't even matter. Even so, I must atone for my sins and help these ruined humans who have come to me for help, if I can help at all. Speak! What is it you wish for? I am Casshern. I will try and help.
...Brains? Where does one find brains? Are there truly no brains for you to eat and so you must resort to such monstrous means to survive and is there no alternative to salvation? No, there is one, only one I can see for you ruined humans to survive on. An encampment where there is a supply of brains for you to live on. And you must live! Your lives are not meaningless, even if you lack a heart in your body! Please, believe in me who believes in you. I will do whatever it takes to regain the brains held in that encampment.
Perhaps it'll wash away the sin of what I've done.
