Characters currently in-game: N/A
CHARACTER
Character Name: Magnus Burnsides
Character Age: Physically mid 20s, has lived a hundred years on top of that, though
Canon: The Adventure Zone
Canon Point: Right after hiding his relic in the Stolen Century Arc
History: Wiki Link
Personality:
Magnus is a protector. That fact is what shapes most of his actions, and what has shaped his view of himself since he was a kid. One of his most impactful memories is saving a dog from a group of shitty kids. He got his ass handed to him, but it's something that's stuck with him. He might be kind of rough around the edges, cracking shitty jokes and being kind of a dick whenever he says things without thinking, but he will absolutely put himself in harms way to help others. He'll take the fatal blow, and stay behind to fight even if it means his death. On one of the planets he and the IPRE go to, he doesn't follow the others onto the starblaster when the hunger comes. He tries to help as many people as he can before the hunger kills him. It's just who he is.
Magnus is a good boy™. He wears his heart on his sleeve basically all the time, and isn't afraid to hide his emotions. This can also lead to unfortunate instances where he says things he probably shouldn't, but despite any speeches where he diminishes kids' hard work (he taught a kids sports team once and wasn't exactly the most humble of coaches.), he does but his all into everything he does. When learning how to be a carpenter, he does his very best, and is super proud of himself when he manages to make something half-decent. (it's a duck. Magnus loves animals ok.)
He's also a very act first kind of guy. His thing is "Magnus rushes in" because really that's what he does. Whenever a tough situation arises, or something suspicious is going on that probably requires some finess, Magnus doesn't stop to plan or prepare, he just strides in ready for whatever's comin' his way. It's probably not the greatest approach to have, but it's how he do.
As stated above, Magnus is a good guy. Technically, he's Lawful Good, but he's not...very good at being completely lawful. It's not that he sets out to murder a bunch of dudes and cause some mayhem, but sometimes it just kind of happens. He'll do better next time, he swears! He also just kind of goes with the flow, so if one of his party members ends up doing something shitty, he'll just go along with it. Or if it goes south, he'll try to solve the problem by...well, usually accidental murder. An example is when he, Taako, and Merle try to sneak into a base. Taako tries to disguise himself as one of the guards and ends up getting discovered. To try and salvage things Magnus kills the guard, which, well, isn't the greatest because they weren't supposed to kill anyone.
His moral compass and lawful good intentions aren't so ridgid that he refuses to do bad things for the greater good. If he were to be confronted with the trolley problem (and jumping in front of the train himself wasn't an option) he would absolutely choose to kill the one person to save five. He might do bad things occasionally, but he does try to do as much good as possible overall. And he doesn't let his failures sour him. He might have gone through 99 worlds and watched them all get eaten by a big, eldritch horror, but he's still the cheerful, optimistic person he was at the start of the journey. No matter what happens, he continues to look forward instead of back at past failures. 99 worlds may be gone, but maybe the 100th one will be the one they win, or the 101st, and onward.
When it comes down to it, Magnus is cheerful and friendly. He creates strong bonds with the people around him and does everything he can to help save the multiverse.
Inventory: His axe, the clothes on his back.
Abilities: Magnus is extremely proficient in two things: Fighting and Carpentry. He can't do magic or anything fancy, but if you need something chopped in half he's your man.
Flaws: Rushing in without thinking, being prideful, letting 99 worlds get eaten by a plane of existence. Really, Magnus is a good dude, but the fact he'll do bad things in order to bring about the most good can definitely be seen as a problem.
