Character Name: Takuto Maruki Canon: Persona 5 Royal Character Info: Wiki since there is a LOT of lore
A bit of tidbit here: Dr Takuto Maruki starts off the start of that year as a voluntary counselor at Shujin Academy. He cares for the students and is known to deeply connect with others and sympathise with their problems- which ultimately makes him one of the more popular and well-loved members of the faculty when he does finish his tenure. He is extremely friendly and very easy to reach out to which isn’t a facade in itself as he finds himself wanting to help those in need and lend a helping hand to those who suffer.
He dresses formally and is known to be mostly prim and proper- even with the hint of air of awkwardness around him. He is alert and sharp when it comes to picking up on comments or statements said by his patients that he wouldn’t hesitate to dive into depending on how comfortable they are.
Of course there is a lot underneath the surface! Takuto Maruki is a very broken man who can't overcome his own grief and has made it his life mission to remove all pain and suffering from the world. He has an immense saviour complex or even something of a martyr who is willing to take away all of humanity's free will for the sake of seeing them happy and fulfill everyone's dreams and wishes. As one can see this benevolent wish sounds great in theory and...a little worrying in practise.
More info will be in the actual form.
PLOTTING! Monster Ideas: I am currently VERY much eyeing Angel right now. It fits Maruki to the T and fits his blind idealism! specifically very celestial but I also want this man to show up to others like "Do not be afraid :D" I am also still very open to hear from others on what they might think of a good intentioned but manipulative good doctor as a monster ! If not that then Wraith or…fairy. Something good willed but twisted ugwim Vehicle Ideas: A taxi! I know! Its a little ridiculous haha but Maruki (SPOILERS?) drives a taxi at the end so maybe it will be a nice little irony of him just being blatantly confused?? However the inside of his taxi is very hospitable and if possible, just be one of the most comfortable taxis ever with a lot of leg room. The seats can give you a massage and the taxi has a whole fridge for snacks and drinks! All free of charge Game plans: Dr Takuto Maruki is a very inquistive fellow by nature- even if he might be a little terrified of the monsters before quickly adjusting to it and coming up with countermeasures using Azathoth. Maruki will meddle into matters and offer to help in areas where people are struggling. Safe to say if we get any celestial powers here- Maruki will be manipulative with them. Desired CR: Treat him with kindness and acceptance and he will be your confidant He is also a BIG nerd and passionate in academic. Specifically in pyschology. Any and all scientists are welcome. If you want to push at his moral dilemmas…he might entertain those as well. He is also incredibly attuned to people's body language, someone’s tone and moods and is generally good at reading people and helping to be at ease and get them to open up. obviously if your character wouldn't open up then that’s a different point.
Other: CW-> Okay despite all the desired cr stuff as mentioned in the *personality* section all of his kind and empathetic actions have twisted motives. He really does believe he’s doing all this for the right cause and is deluded enough to fully believe himself to the point that even if you do openly challenge his points- he will be skeptical of you. He will NOT fully open up with you on any important matters regarding himself. A character can push him around a little bit but he will hold a grudge out of spite. He’s a certified liar and manipulator who sorts after any information which can further his goal so do proceed with caution. He’s also mentally not right in the head so there’s that.
gimme ideas thank you
ALSO one more warning: i don't want to deal with TOO MANY mental health problems without like outside ooc talk cause uhhhh i do not have any professional background i just weave through papers where i can and tbh neither is maruki a skilled one
