masc, he/him, early 20s, isekai warrior of light
Mortimer is a Warrior of Light that was isekaied from his earth to the world of Etheryis. He wakes up in the body of Nika Grindavik, a Veena Viera from the outskirts of Idyllshire. At the same time, Nika wakes up in the body of Casimir Scordato, a human from an odd town called Sunrise Valley. But this tale isn't about Nika. Casimir soon found out in his new body that he could die without seemingly any consequence. He began to abuse this power, resetting the day whenever he messed something up. He introduced himself to people as an alias: Mortimer Blackthorne.
Mortimer is, in very little words, unhinged. There's something greatly wrong with him, and he doesn't know if it began before he came to Etheryis or if he lost his mind while resetting. He acts kind and caring towards others, but there's indifference in his heart. Its difficult to get close to him; He wont allow anyone to breach his fortified walls. His 'care' for others is based on how useful they are to him. He doesn't love people, he endears himself to them. He keeps up a persona of a paragon—a Warrior of Light that is strong, amicable, and digestible. Its what the people want, a symbol of hope, and he'll keep it up as long as it gets him the rewards, perks, and praise he needs to get by.
Mortimer's honorable hero facade starts to deteriorate as the story continues. By Shadowbringers, he tends to let his minds true thoughts leak. His actions are based on instinct rather than calculations. He begins to shoot first and asks questions later. People start to see the Warrior of Light for who he truly is after the Final Days. But he doesn't seem to care. He laughs about it, saying why should he? These people and their opinions don't matter to him. He doesn't know them. He doesn't care about them. So why should they matter? He acts out of self interest and self preservation. Though, he does seem to have a few people he would die over and over again to keep from being killed.
Mortimer has died enough times that his hair has turned nearly completely white. He's lived about an extra year to his current age. He has a bunny tail and it annoys him, but it does twitch. His nose twitches too, a lot like a bunny. I want to dissect his brain.
