CHARACTER. NAME: benedict dearborn CANON: original LANGUAGE: English (he also speaks Japanese and Italian) TL;DR:
Ben Dearborn is a classic Virgo with a Capricorn moon (so like, a Worse Virgo.) he's a professor with his doctorate in world religious studies. yeah, clearly a party animal, there. on top of being a posh professor stereotype, Ben has some quirks — jotting down sigils, carrying glowing feathers through the dark, briefcase permanently scented of sage and eucalyptus. he's probably a tarot deck and one note of patchouli shy of being a full on witch. and then there's the Bible on his person, and an old notebook filled front to back of hand-written descriptions about demons...everything from Western to Eastern lands; definitely more notes on the Christianity side of things. needles to say, if snakes manifest inside your home...who you gonna call? 'Ben Dearborn is not an ordained priest or affiliated with the Catholic Church, and is not responsible for demonic oppression, possession, or damnation. side effects may include being lectured, unamused stares, finding your belongings rearranged, aversion to the number 9, earth tones, terrible luck, proficiency in astrology, and playing sudoku.'
RUNDOWN: Ben has been living a fantastically dull life and being super ignorant of his piling depression, had a cool little fling during a working visit in Japan with a real cute guy, but they broke it off before Ben came back to England. life sucks and then you die, as they say. people do say that. I do, for example. Ben has a top level on the TDM, to get a good idea of him as a character and in the setting, but I will be adding lots of y'all on plurk to see about plotting when the first event goes live. his inbox is here with texting and voice capability, at least Ben is praying so. at the moment, I'm just excited to delve into the strange environment, throw Ben for a couple more loops, and get him knit into the tapestry of the cast with some cr! who can he get help from, who can he help, he wants to feel more directly purposeful at the moment while he and everyone else is helplessly flapping their hands at MC Escher land here. OFFERED CR: Ben is capable of being a cooperative authoritarian, a record keeper of vital information, a mother hen, the voice of reason, and a strategist. he can be calm, stable, trustworthy, and surprisingly caring; he knows first aid (CPR certified) and speaks Japanese and Italian on top of English, making him a relatively helpful interpreter. please don't be shy if any of these qualities ping your brain for possible cr with yours. DESIRED CR: kind of anything: fire-forged cr, peas in a pod, opposites stuck together, functionally prickly/nagging/argumentative cr, guardian over yours/accidental mom friend (but like, the kind that will force you to eat your vegetables,) accidental feels/sharing vulnerabilities, and sharing cultures/world backgrounds. oh and if you want to get existential in arguments about God and all that crap, Ben the exorcist is the perfect excuse (even though he's super reluctant to fling that tidbit about himself out there, plenty of odd indicators point to Ben being...not as typical boring Professor Tweed as he comes off.) happy with tense and suspenseful plots, horror or fantasy, cute shit, survival/nest building, all sorts.
ETC: my friend made this for Ben and it's literally the most accurate thing that's ever been said about him
