Name | December Lucas Florence
Age | 21
Origin | Eden ○ Seattle, Washington, USA
Arcana | Hanging Man
Spread | XI

Background
December's childhood wasn't marked with anything very extraordinary in its early days. Though his parents had him fairly late in their lives, he was born a healthy baby boy and had no problems growing up. However, come second grade, the boy was involved in an accident that turned his school bus on its side during his ride home. Suffering several scars on his left side hardly meant a thing in comparison to the head trauma that destroyed his vision.
From then on was a matter of relearning how to live the life he did before. Unfortunately, he soon learned that this new ailment of his garnered unwanted attention. People seemed to act sensitive around him and spoke in a way that made him feel stupid, but instead of ignoring it, he wound up more self-conscious than anything. Worries over how he looked like and how he was perceived eventually granted him a friend in the fashion industry- someone he entrusted his wardrobe to. Eventually, he moved in with her to share the rent of a studio apartment. It was a matter of time before he gained an interest in sculpting and pottery, dedicating his time to making and selling his works. Despite becoming so independent, his brand was riddled with reminders of his lack of eyesight. It seemed that whatever he did was amazing “because he's blind”- something he'd rather have people disregard. And even with how far he'd come, he couldn't help but think of just how much he relied on his roommate. December found it exhausting and almost insulting to everything he knew he was capable of.
When the letter came in, embossed with dots of Braille, it looked like there was someone out there who somehow knew and understood this issue he left himself to deal with alone. An invitation like this… How could he refuse?

Personality
Marked with the disposition of a general happiness, he's not one to appear angry or sad for most of his public time. It's easy for him to be calm, cool, and collected, but his widest range of emotions tends to be put into practice when he's alone. He'd gained a preference for being charming and gentlemanly, but a childish sense of humor often manages to surface, especially as a defense mechanism.

Strengths

Enhanced senses

Due to being blind, his other senses have grown to be more reliable. His senses of hearing, taste, smell, and touch are be more adept.

Deliberation

Often times, before making a decision, he thinks about the issue at hand extensively. He prefers to weigh all his options logically before setting himself up on a particular path.

Openness

He's always willing to try new things and isn't difficult to persuade. He would rather give something a shot and dislike it than show unfounded distaste from the start.

Weaknesses
Blindness

He blind.

Pushover

The ease of persuading him can be turned on its head. Convincing and controlling him isn't too much work when driven from a personal place.

Regression to the Mean

Though he's fine with trying out different things, his comfort rests in past and earlier stages of himself. A bit more than dwelling in the past, he seems to take himself back every once in awhile as if retreating into a shell.

Combat
He's not afraid to involved himself in a fight, but he simply doesn't know what he's doing (e.g. He could throw a punch, but it likely wouldn't be a “proper” punch). Close combat works best for him while his ranged attacks are vastly inferior.

Notes
- Face Claim: Lucky Blue Smith
- Based off of the color periwinkle.
- He got surgery to make his eyes lighter in color.
- Mostly sculpts with wood. Uses clay the least.
- Actually loves puns.
- Has a tattoo of a lens reflecting light in an "X" over the word "sight" on his left arm. Just to REALLY drive the point through.
- Often changes what he imagines people to look like. A-plus Entertainment.
- Trying to learn echolocation because bats know what's up.
- Likes the feeling of running a hand through uncooked rice.
- Dislikes having things like makeup or face paint on him.
- Habits: tapping foot/bouncing leg, talks to himself, talks with his mouth full, daydreaming, eavesdropping, exaggerating
- Has with him at all/most times: earphones, voice recorder, sunglasses, walking stick.
