Name: Baldr/Baldur (the names he goes by)

*Nickname(s): The Twelfth, 0RES XII, Balder (by two certain people)

*Age: ???

Gender: Male

Pronouns: He/him

Sexuality: Straight

Species: Immortal/unaging human (???)

*Deity They Work For: None

Appearance: Contrary to a certain nickname two annoying friends of his gave him, Baldr is not bald, and in fact probably has the best-conditioned hair in all of the 0RES. Unfortunately, he also has the most girly hair and overall appearance of the girl as well. In fact, he can be mistaken for a lady at times, whether intentional or not, with his slim figure and fair skin.

Baldur has wide, bright emerald eyes, with fair/long eyelashes both above and below each one. However, his left eye is commonly obstructed by his hair, with bangs parted to either side—the left part dominantly larger and also sweeping past his brow and ear. His hair is typically to length just past his shoulder, however, this would be the average length. He has wavy dark blue hair with a strong tint of purple, and he usually styles it with a combination of thick braids and just letting it fall down. The two tufts falling down in between his eyes and his ears are especially thick, and are almost always styled in such a style, being the largest braids regardless in comparison to the others, existent or not. He has a crease above both eyes, and he has thin eyebrows with a prominent arch.

He usually wears more gender-neutral clothing. Of these there is a light gray collared shirt up to the base of his neck, with the collars tied with a ribbon, paired with tight jeans and boots up to his ankles.

He looks to be 18-20.

Personality: In spite of his physical appearance, he is elusive and feared, with quite the dark reputation. In fact, Baldr is the most feared in all his group. Perhaps a reason is his willingness to harm and even kill if necessary, and his cruelty, which lives up to that of Benigno’s reputation.

He prefers to stay by himself, even with his friends. Even with them, he is very ironic and sarcastic in both actions and speech, a reason why he and the Fourth tend to be able to get along fairly well and engage in conversations everyone else gets confused about.

As a matter of fact, perhaps he is afraid of being too different. In spite of what some might mistake him to be, he never actually gloats about his abilities and his beauty/looks, though he enjoys doing it sometimes as a tease or joke, usually to his friends, and rarely to strangers. He is fully aware that there are those better and more powerful than himself, and one must not just focus on the positive. He is far from narcissistic, contradicting to the mistaken prospects of him being self-centered and vain.

In fact, his inside fears cause him to hide within himself so he will not be hurt by others, other than his close ones. This sometimes results in solitude even with his friends and, at worst, lashing out to them for some sensitive subject. Not to be said, Baldur can be sensitive at times, though for most of the time he is modest and not tiring to be around with (he can take most jokes and he doesn’t have that bad of a temper). But, he does have a strange temper that seems tempered down at the worst of times and unleashed at other, weird times.

A reason for his aloof attitude towards others is his belief that one must be strong to survive, an unfortunate attitude he has honed from his past. A motif that he holds is that power is more beautiful than any physical appearance, and as such, he will always judge an opponent by their power level, rather than their looks. For himself, as well, he believes what makes him really beautiful is not his physique, but his power. A philosophy that he has observed is that power is needed to maintain order and justice, and as such, the stronger rule over the weak so to maintain that same order and justice.

Despite these attitudes, however, Baldr is still very caring. He will do anything to help his comrades—and even the friends of his friends, choosing to trust the latter—and will trust in what they tell him and that what they do is right. He is very loyal to his companions, and in the end, would be willing to fight and die for what and whom he believes in.

*Theme Song(s): 《以花为葬》

TBD

Weapons: None, other than what he summons with his powers.

Powers: Out of the powers of all his group, his is most designed for stealth rather than either offense or defense, at least, currently. Unfortunately, his powers are also the most uncontrolled at the moment, along with that of Benigno’s.

He has Ergo-Ecokinesis, which enables him to manipulate elemental energy. He is currently able to shape objects out of such energy, as well as use its effects on himself, and the occasional other(s). He can make most anything out of the energy other than animate beings, such as roses and plants. However, he can add to existing organisms and beings, such as adding characteristics. It is in such a way that he does to himself, giving himself the ability to camouflage into his temporary surroundings when he does not move/has very limited movement. However, he is far from having the ability to blend when he is on the move. He can also change bits of his appearance in an illusion-like way, such as “extending” his hair length, giving it a different color, “changing” the color of his eyes, “adding” length to his jawline, et cetera.

In worst case scenarios, he is able to fly for a short period of time. He also has an unnatural affinity with plants and such organisms.

Backstory: How he was born was/is unknown, but he doesn’t know his birth parents. Just as with the others, he was part of an experiment with various other kids.

Once the experiment was closed, he was let back into society (at an undetermined but young age, just as with the others). At first, it seemed like he wouldn’t have that rough of a childhood. He was put into an orphanage, and then adopted by a family—and then given back to the same orphanage just a day later, due to an incident. This process repeated (with different periods of time with him staying with the family), until he decided he’d had enough (and the orphanage also was at the brink of deciding it didn’t want him back again anymore), and he chose to run away and find a place to live on his own, knowing nobody and with no one knowing him, so he wouldn’t ever mistakenly think that someone wanted him, and then be thrown away again. To do this, he chose to use his powers to change himself into someone else.

It was this same solitude that made it so hard for the others to find him, as he had never thought anyone would want to look for him. He was one of the last found, and arguably had one of the hardest times in all of them in fitting in and trying to get along with the others, having spent a lot of time with only himself or otherwise only seeing the negatives of human nature.

Fortunately or not, his sensitivity to most people/things was taken a test with the two teasers/pranksters of the group. Since he’d had even less exposure to books and such, he was also just starting on his own education (and power-controlling training), and he didn’t know what to name himself. He was determined to make sure that his name would be one he wouldn’t regret later. Unfortunately, Benigno and the Eighth teamed up on him once, making fun of his hair—or “non-hair”, apparently—as they called him “Balder”. Fortunately, he didn’t get mad (as usual), but he reasoned that this nickname would be the equivalent of “Baldur” and “Baldur”. So, he decided to call himself by the name(s) derived from that nickname. Unfortunately…the nickname sticks.

*Crush: None. I don’t want to make such a relationship relevant for this character.

Other: Eros

If I POV him, his POV color is a light shade of pastel blue.
