- 'supposed' name: fritz "jinx" grimsley
- age: mid or late 20s, possibly early 30s.
- gender & pronouns: neutrois, trans man | it/he/they pronouns
personality: compared to his pre-reset self, Fritz is less of a ticking timebomb full of rage waiting to explode. Fritz is still just as serious and secretive, but bears a more neutral and thus aloof expression. He doesn't laugh, smile, cry or frown around others, which makes them more stilted and awkward. Not being a very emotional person at all, it gives Fritz an air of oddity, often being thought of as more cold and level-headed.
He isn't entirely selfish, but still prefers solitude. However, he tends to come off as rude in some cases. Fritz's bluntness means he won't hold back criticism, but his honesty is a boon. You can tell if he enjoys what your presence brings to their company, as he is willing to compliment you in his own ways.

stand: Agent of Fortune
Agent of Fortune was acquired by Fritz's merging with the Holy Rib Cage he stole from Funny Valentine. Thusly it has a notably skeletal appearance. AoF's ability is to conceal its user in shadow, and hide them from the perception of others, even other Stand Users. AoF was manifested as a result of Fritz's desires of secrecy and seclusion. The user becomes much like a ghost, able to pass through solid objects unharmed and leave a cold misty presence behind. -
Story: (under read more)
Fritz is reluctant to open up about his past and has never told anyone his true identity. As far as anyone knows, Fritz is his real name. The truth is, it isn't his real name. He's been on the run for years, escaping the law by completely erasing his trail and tying up loose ends. So when Fritz entered the Steel Ball Run, a total nobody, at the last moment - it shocked several participants and onlookers. This caught Funny Valentine's eye, as he had knew of the identity of just about everyone in his country... Except Fritz Jinx Grimsley.
So when you have the eyes of the President watching you... There are bound to be rumors, especially when you're, as far as everyone else is concerned, a total nobody! Fritz doesn't seem to be under any sort of pressure though. At least that's how the public eye sees it. As he proclaimed, Fritz joined this mess coming from a nowhere town looking for something more exciting to spice up his life.
Fritz used this as a way to commit possibly one of the greatest heists he's committed: Thievery of the Holy Corpse. He heard rumors of its powers, and let it get to his head. Instead of fury, Funny was surprised but intrigued that the rib cage managed to fuse with Fritz when it had done nothing for him. So, he decided to try to convince Fritz to stick around and work for him... He could have anything he ever wanted, after all, at the drop of a dime. Why not accept it?
