I’ve got it! I’ve created the ultimate edgy character: Edgy McEdgerson. Here’s how he stacks up:
[X] They are possessed by a demon (well, actually, he’s possessed by some guy named Damian, but close enough)
[X] They are a werewolf/vampire/faerie (he’s all three, somehow…)
[X] Their eyes are an unusual color
[X] This happens to be red
[X] They are immortal
[X] They have sixth sense/can mind-read
[X] They were bestowed/cursed with these powers
[X] They have lost one/both of their parents
[X] They ran away from home
[X] Their parents are cruel, uncaring, abusive etc.
[X] They witnessed one/both of their parents death
[X] They never knew their parents (You see, his parents used to beat him over the head with a shovel, giving him amnesia, which caused him to “never know” his parents, whose murders were both witnessed by him. He also ran away from home to escape the beatings, but they always found him and brought him back in the trunk of the family car)
[X] They have no friends
[X] They are emo
[X] The have PTSD (probably from the beatings…)
[X] They struggle to stay sane (probably from the beatings…)
[X] They have multiple personalities (probably from the beatings…)
[X] They have hallucinations (you guessed it…)
[X] They have a rare/unusual name (I don’t think I have to explain this one)
[X] They are a race/species that is discriminated against/misunderstood (Vampire-Faerie-Werewolfs are always discriminated against…)
[X] They have a certain power that is misunderstood/feared
[X] They live/lived on the streets at some point in their lives (he and his parents lived out of the family car…)
[X] They cry blood (you would too if you were beat over the head with a shovel everyday…)
[X] Certain noises/smells/situations/etc make their powers activate/give them a nervous breakdown (the sound of shoveling…)
[X] They are very mysterious/dark
[X] They have amnesia (remember when I mention the shovel?)
[X] The have a curse upon them (also from that Damian guy…)
[X] They are involved in some sort of prophecy (The Prophecy of Edginess, of course)
[X] They have insomnia (oh, that one has nothing to do with the shovel; it’s just hard to sleep in the trunk of a compact car)
[X] They do not care much about others
[X] They are emotionless
[X] Will snap at some point (and probably kill/injure a member of the party)
[X] Doesn’t trust others
[X] Will betray the group at some point (if they are apart of one)
[X] Has no reservations about killing their enemies (especially if they have shovels…)
[X] Uses a cloak that is also most likely black
[X] Lurks or broods in the shadows.
[X] All their friends are dead or abandoned them (they all had shovels, so he had to get rid of them…)
[X] Wears black/has a dark color scheme
[X] I work alone complex
[X] Is constantly tortured by/scared of/running from their past (shovels…)
[X] Is really caring, but just doesn’t know how to emote
[X] Is an assassin, but only by necessity (see “All their friends are dead or abandoned them”)
[X] Is the chosen avatar of scion of a god, goddess, or being of cosmic power
[X] Wields a Katana
[X] Is some sort of samurai or ninja (the samurai were the only people that would take him in… until he learned that they had shovels…)
[X] Has a code of honor reminiscent of a Samurai
[X] Has shadow powers
[X] Dislikes people who are content.
[X] likes mcr (my chemical romance) (I don’t know what that is, but the answer is still “yes”)
[X] Has a power that negatively affects them when they use it
Results: A perfect score! Of course, he’s so edgy, it’s somehow comical…
I’m sure some of this will end up in the Out Of Context TTV Quotes topic…
