Difference between revisions of "August Kohler"

{{{Defining}}}

{{{Significant}}}

PERSONA COMBAT: Using a Persona is taxing on both the wielder's mind and spirit, and every use wears the wielder down more and more. After battle, August needs to rest in order to regain his lost energy, and during long combat, there's a chance of him collapsing completely from strain.

HABITUAL LIAR: August tends to lie about minor things, which can put him in trouble depending on who he lies to. He won't lie about the most important situations, but he will lie about things he doesn't think matters, and will definitely lie about his own social status whenever he believes he can get away with it.

SOCIAL SITUATIONS: August doesn't have the best grasp on social situations, and can be incredibly blunt. He will usually put his own needs over the needs of others, and will speak his mind, even when it might hurt somebody's feelings.

SHARED WEAKNESS: Anything that harms the Persona, in turn harms August. He will feel any damage done to his Persona, and fire attacks will harm him just like they would the Persona, much worse than any average person.

STILL A STUDENT: Despite being a superpowered being fighting eldritch horrors in an alternate world, August is also still a teenager, and must deal with things such as class, homework, and keeping his double life a secret. This can put a lot of stress on him, as well as limit the time he can fight during important school weeks.

BULLIED: Due to being a poor student in a school full of wealthy teenagers, August has been extensively bullied for his status. This has led to him becoming more withdrawn, and isolating himself from others due to feeling he's a burden. It takes a bit to get him out of his shell as a result, and he will often avoid social situations when he can.

FIGHTING FIRE WITH FIRE: Despite the Tin Soldier's use of fire attacks, it is simultaneously weak to them, taking more damage than the average person. This also applies to the Tin Soldier's own fire attacks, which can be turned against it to seriously harm it.
