What's your name? Doc
Who do you play? Adam Jensen (Deus Ex)
Where can you be reached? PMs work just fine, and feel free to add me at arcanebarrage (now at least 100% easier to do so ever since someone tipped me off that my old layout made my "Add Friend" button DISAPPEAR.)

Who is this character? Adam "Never Asked For This" Jensen

Tell us something about them. Ex-cop from a cyberpunk Detroit in the far-off year of 2027 who worked physical security at one of the world's leading biotech companies, nearly died in an attack on its headquarters, then got the Robocop treatment thanks to a sketchy clause in his employee contract. He's bit more than half-machine now, loaded up with the highest-end tech available, and really does wear those sunglasses pretty much 100% of the time. He's taciturn, emotionally distant, pretty touchy about his new appearance (though he's getting better about it) and has had some real issues with trusting the wrong people – but despite his (almost comically awful) past, he's a pretty selfless guy who'd go out of his way to help someone in need. A truth-seeker we have not seen the likes of since Fox Mulder.
Also: judging by his apartment, if left to his own devices he'd subsist on nothing but beer, whiskey, and sugary breakfast cereals (I wish I could make this up.) Someone help this man live like a normal human adult.

How long have they been on the Moira? Zero hours and none minutes (unless the TDM counts? Not sure how that fits into the timeline in relation to the official intro log!)

What have they been doing? Weird paranoia-inducing meteor made him a little paranoid, and he made a couple of "friends" by totally jumping them in a dark hallway. Besides that, he's been assigned to cargo bay duty (that's what he gets for having super cool robot arms I guess!!) so probably expect to see him and his super cool robot arms around there!

What do they think of the captains? So far he doesn't have a reason not to trust them– but that doesn't exactly mean he does trust them. The extremely small sample size he polled during the TDM told him they're kind of incompetent and might have their own agenda, so... Apart from the "incompetent" part, nothing he's not unfamiliar with. Adam's paradoxically bad with authority figures while also operating best under some form of direction – it's best for him if everyone he's talked to is wrong and the captains turn out to be good leaders!

Have they figured out a plan of action? Waiting and seeing, mostly. Things tend to shake up around him, so he could end up being someone trying to effect change depending on how things go in his first few weeks.

Is there something specific your character wants to do? Get himself really familiar with the ship, its leadership, and anyone else who plays a major role in its day to day workings. See a planet (because holy crap, it's a new planet.) Probably get out of the cargo bay at some point because, even though the physical labor is kind of relaxing on one level, he's an Action Man at heart.

Got plans for the next month? Brand new here, so I'm just looking to establish some CR! 8)

What about plans over all? Tbh, Adam from the beginning of his canon to his current canonpoint is melancholic, a little angsty, and definitely has some major unresolved issues with himself and pretty much everything that happened to him over the course of the game. It'll take some time, but I'd like to move him along to the more confident, self-accepting, self-determining person he ends up being further down the road. Forcing him to get close to people, to trust them, and to stop pushing them away all the time will be a start!

Specific CR? Definitely would like some of the following!
△ One or two people who he can trust to get familiar with his augmentations – someone who can help him get them up to date (since a lot of his systems are going to be a little confused by not being on the planet Earth) and who he can go to whenever they get damaged. Cyberneticists, people in biotech, maybe even computer geniuses, etc. He doesn't exactly have an instruction manual for how all of his stuff operates, so it could be a challenge for any of the folks who like those!
△ Positive CR! Someone who's good at forcing mopey people to kind of come out of their shell, and won't get really discouraged if it takes time.
△ Negative(?) CR! He's pretty slow to real fist-in-face anger, which makes him a good target for sarcastic annoying people (and hey, one of his most trusted associates in-canon is a sarcastic annoying person!) He gives back about as much as he gets.
△ The stealth-action people should all probably know each other. Same goes for the people with robot parts.
△ Anyone who knows where the hell a guy can get a decent drink on the ship (priorities.)
△ I'm new – give it all to me, baby!

Anything else? Deus Ex partnered up with Open Bionics to make open source 3d-printable prosthetics based off of his arm, and I still can't get over how badass this 10 year old girl is.

Also he's got an opt-in permissions post for an augment of his involving personality analysis and behavior-altering chemicals. Check it out!

Augment-O's tho...

I want CR because Adam Jensen is the coolest but IDK whether to throw Prometheus (a Megaman antagonist *boss chime*) or Fi (from Legend of Zelda) at him. 8T They're polar opposites to each other as far as ideals are concerned but they're both 'robotic' in nature and kinda have the same function in their respective games so.

Jensen /Pritchard voice

tl;dr moral life choices

[hanzer]

Crunchy Pirate is where it's at, man.

Hahaha, why not both eventually? I'm unfortunately unfamiliar with either of them, but YEAH the glance I've taken over both their info tells me that he'd probably be more inclined to give Fi the time of day! And kind of just frown at Prometheus and be disapproving. But like I said, positive or negative CR, it's all going to be new to me so either's welcome! 8)

(Man, what is it even going to be like for him, not hearing "JENSEN" in his skull every day.)

[trap_factory]

tbf, she'd be more inclined to assist him than Prometheus. He'd just drop in and out of his life to pour salt in his wounds and maybe randomly pick start a fight. 8|;;;

But they'd both be happy to assist with How to Properly Manage Your HUD questions!

...

So.

Since Skyward Sword is on the Wii, one of the things that the wiimote does other than vibrate to notify you that Fi has something to say to you (usually "Master, your batteries appear to be running low.") IF WE GET TO BE FRIENDS You can hear this voice chime at you instead. 8|b this is also an available option

[hanzer]

yeah YIKES his wounds do not need any more salt, they are self-salting wounds tbqh. Really testing the limits of his pacifist inclinations there, buddy!!

Ahahah and I'm hoping to get his Infolink integrated/interfaced with his MID's text/audio/video functions at one point so OH BOY that could be a reality. The human Wiimote, god bless. :')

[trap_factory]

That's what he's here for, that was literally his job description back home. How to Make Pacifists Punch You. Yep.

'Jensen, it appears that your augmentations are running low on batteries'--

This is both amazing and awful, I feel bad suggesting it lol

[hanzer]

lbr, if punching everyone doesn't ruin the Pacifist achievement, it's alllll good.

and DON'T, it's beautiful and now I need it to happen, if only to motivate him to finally try and get that mute function on his Infolink that he's wanted for the past couple of weeks.....

[wallride]

lays dramatically across his lap

[hanzer]

bruh

that remix, where's it at. :/

[wallride]

ive entered a really weird side of youtube

[hanzer]

this is

not what he wanted

but I can't really talk, because the example the creators used when they were asked what sort of music he'd be into was from the fictional band andy had on parks and rec

[wallride]

BYEEEEEEEEE BYEEE LIL SEBASTIOOOOONNNN

[wallride]

okay but for an item drop i was gonna ask for a list of fictional/real bands i will include this when its open

[hanzer]

puts that on blast in a darkened room, with a glass of whisky and smoke in hand

"i loved that horse too," he rasps



okay definitely get him mouse rat LMFAO

[wallride]

im lOSING IT..... this will be #1 req

[psychadrellic]

No robot parts here, but Thane's got the stealth-action thing going out the wazoo. He's so stealthy he even has a job that involves hanging out in the ventilation ducts (because he's supposed to be cleaning them, but, details.)

Clearly they should be friends because they're both kinda introverted guys with Troubling Pasts who wear really awesome black leather outfits. Clearly meant to be!

[hanzer]

I mean, CLEARLY meant to be with credentials like that!! (Same coat...!)

But yeah, totally! He's already run into a magic guy, so he's got to cover his "things that used to be fiction but now basically aren't" bases with a straight up alien dude. In some ways, he'd actually probably... Kind of feel more comfortable around someone who's so far removed from everything he knows and has experienced.

[psychadrellic]

Omggggg, what a cute comic!

I can picture this already...After introductions they're gonna be like two old men who say maybe five words apiece to each other, spend an hour or two sitting in comfortable silence together, and then go their separate ways, but like, in a "this was fun, let's do this again tomorrow" kind of way.

And then they'll do it again tomorrow.

The things I never knew I needed in my life...!

[hanzer]

I... Oh my god, that is such a sweet image. :')

Just, no probing questions, no pressure to open up any more than they want to, this nice and mutual understanding. Hanging around people in a casual setting doesn't have to be the pits!

He'd totally be down for that, since pretty much everyone else he meets for the first time is just gonna be all "huh, so that weird robot body of yours, huh?" Gets exhausting, man.

[psychadrellic]

It's just fancy prosthetics, there's no need to be rude about it! Or like...point them out at all? Obviously Jensen knows they're there, they're kind of attached to him.

Ugh, I can't wait to throw them together, it's going to be so good /chinhands

[hanzer]

yesss, we will have to see what the intro log brings! :Ia
