IC INFORMATION
Character Name: Inigo
Species: Human
Canon: Fire Emblem Awakening
Canon Point: After Paralogue 6: A Man for Flowers. (As a side note, in Fire Emblem: Awakening it's possible to marry different characters off to each other, which in turn influences the kids' hair color, skills and sometimes even relationships between the kids (like being siblings). I'm choosing to play Inigo as Chrom and Olivia's son.)
Character Age: He has no official canonical age, but seems to be about 17.
CRAU: No.
CRAU Explanation: N/A.
Character Appearance: Here. Though this Inigo, since he is Chrom's son, actually has darker blue hair, like here.
Powers and Abilities: Inigo is seasoned in battle. His in-game class is Mercenary, which is a class that only fights with swords and has fairly balanced stats with nothing in particular standing out. It means he's good with a sword, enough to face and often kill bandits and other warriors in battle. He has no particular magical or supernatural abilities!
What Did Your Character Wish For? The restoration of his destroyed future world.
What Potion Did They Receive? The Scarlet Potion.
Did They Drink It? Yes, upon which Inigo received the elemental ability of controlling water. Which is going to be hilariously pathetic at first until he manages to power it up.
Character Questions:
1. Who is the person your character is most bonded with from their canon? Or who is someone they miss the most?
Though Inigo's big sister Lucina is a close second, Inigo's most bonded person is definitely his mother. Inigo is a huge, huge, huge momma's boy. Even though she's already been dead for a while in his destroyed future, he's still absolutely crazy about his mother and misses her every single day. He gets so flustered when he travels to the past and is able to meet her younger self again, especially since Inigo assumed he'd never see his mother again. The fact he was trapped into always have to fight for his life every single day in that destroyed future only made him miss his mother more, wishing she was still there to comfort him and to give him guidance. As he tells the past version of his mother during one of their conversations: "To tell you the truth, I really wanted to hear your thoughts. I always used to practice beside your grave. I'd try to imagine what you'd say as you watched me."
Inigo never really could forget his mother, and even now he wears his mother's wedding ring at all times and constantly thinks of her.
2. What are they most afraid of?
Inigo is most afraid of failing the people he cares for. This mostly comes from the fact that the future he hails from has stakes that are so incredibly high that failing one of the people he cares for basically means that they would die - and Inigo would always blame himself for not having protected them enough when it matters. After already losing his parents, Inigo has an abandonment complex a mile long, no matter how much he tries to hide it under smiles and pleasantries. Like he tells his father in the past during a conversation with him: "With everyone looking to me to be strong, I had no choice. I HAD to be invincible."
He fears what would happen when he isn't invincible and strong. He fears losing more people and ending up all alone, and that it'll all just be his own fault, because he wasn't strong enough.
Sure, the idea of his own death - and how close he often got to it - is also scary. Fighting is scary, the Risen were scary, but-- nothing can beat the fear of being all alone and having failed in Inigo's mind. (As also shown how personally and painfully he takes it when his father disapproves of him in the past.)
3. What is their weakness? Emotionally, mentally and physically?
Aside from the stuff listed on the fear section right above this, Inigo is such a tender boy. Sure, he may attempt to hide it underneath ridiculous flirt behaviour and being incredibly dramatic, but Inigo is so soft on the inside. He cries at the drop of a hat, he's deadly afraid of the tiniest bugs, he's too shy to try and talk to girls in any normal sort of manner, and he adores flowers and dancing - though he's also too shy to show the latter to anyone at all, and he'll sputter and blush if anyone even tries to bring up the very topic of dancing to him.
It can be a surprising weakness when you know about what Inigo has been through. He's somehow survived an apocalyptic world, he's been constantly fighting, both in the future world and the past one, and yet he's never lost the soft, tender core that's always been at the heart of the baby prince who then had to face far worse circumstances than he ever thought he would.
4. What would make them happiest?
Inigo is always at his happiest when he's surrounded by the people he loves. Inigo always puts up such a tough front, smiling at all times as if nothing is ever wrong, and though he's prone to doing that even with the people he cares about the most, he's still at least a little more likely to eventually drop the front with them. After having suffered so much loss and hardship, Inigo truly would just want to live with his family again. To be reunited with his father and mother, to live with them and his sister and his friends in peace, without ever having to worry about fighting or pain again.
Though - as a note - even if it would be more bittersweet, Inigo would also be happy at just the possibility of creating happiness for the people he cares about, even if it'd come at the cost of his own happiness or his own life. This boy is incredibly self-sacrificial.
5. What’s their type for a lover?
There's definitely two sides to this.
On the one side, there's what Inigo would say about this - that he wants someone caring, someone he could make smile every day. He's definitely not above chasing a grumpy person until he can make them smile and love them.
On the other hand, there's what Inigo would need for a lover, and that's definitely someone who isn't afraid to call him out on his bullshit. Someone who tells him to stop constantly hiding everything and just be himself. Inigo definitely doesn't realise he needs this and would claim he can happily keep up the act forever, but-- no, he definitely needs someone to keep him in line.
