What's your character's full name?

Emerson Truth Cleverly

What's your favorite quote from you're character?

“Oh do calm down, all I asked was that you help me reattach my head.”

What do they look like and what's their personality like?

Emerson is trapped inside a large doll he’d designed to be a vessel of sorts for his now deceased daughter. The doll’s basic design was meant to resemble a young child, with a rounded face and. Emerson had painted it himself, meaning it's comprised of very simple shapes like the rosy pink circles on each of the dolls cheeks. The dolls overall expression remains what Emerson had aimed to be neutral, though it might appear downright eerie to some. The vessel’s clothing is all handmade, with Emerson’s favorite outfit being a three piece suit he’d tailored himself from some of his old clothing. Its hair is a wig with dark colored hair hastily cut to varying lengths at chin level and is held in place by small indents behind the sculpted ears and on the front and back of the vessels head.

Emerson's personality is, overall, rather quiet. He makes an effort to seem as polite and courteous as he can, and he is especially friendly if he feels as though someone is off put by his appearance. Truthfully, he loathes conversation. He prefers to spend time alone, or perhaps working or reading in the silent company of somebody else. Despite he occurrences leading him to his current state, Emerson is not the sort of man to act on a whim. What actually tends to happen is that he grows too passionate, his vision narrows, and he often loses sight of the things he actually cares about after setting upon a certain goal.

What's their backstory before they came to the society?

Once just a simple toymaker, Emerson’s life took a devastating turn when his young daughter became suddenly and deathly ill. In an attempt to cheat death, he set about constructing a machine capable of capturing his child's soul and sealing it into a porcelain vessel he’d made much like the dolls his daughter had adored. It took a long time for him to get his machine in what he’d believed was working order, so long that his daughter passed before it was finished. Not one to give up however, he still tried to move his daughter’s soul from where he believed it to be tied (her corpse) to the doll vessel, but his machine malfunctioned. When the dust settled, Emerson found himself trapped in the porcelain vessel and his old body laying still and cold on the floor.

With the machine no longer working, Emerson had no choice but to adapt to his new form. He mended his old clothing to fit the small body, packed up what supplies he could carry, and set out after finding a way to alert officials of the two bodies in his home.

Do you have any pictures of them that you drew or found?

I have a concept I made real quick using the app Pastel Girl, does that count?

Tairais, my incredible friend who I would gladly give my life for, also drew an amazing picture of him.

Do they have any nicknames?

Someone he used to care deeply for enjoyed calling him ‘Em’, ‘Emmy’, and sometimes ‘Merry’ to tease him. He never told her, but he was actually very fond of those nicknames.

What do they study at the society?

A mixture of soul physics and basic mechanics. Though he’ll take an interest in anything he can tie back to his current state.

Do they have any jobs?

He used to be a toymaker. He still sells the occasionally doll or stuffed animal to try and make ends meet but its not his primary focus anymore.

What is their age?

23, his birthday on the 12th of November.

Are they human? If not what are they?

He definitely used to be human, but he’s sure what to consider anymore. What with the whole body made of ceramic and all. He doesn’t really know what to call himself.

Are they single, dating someone, or married?

He’s single now, and that's all he wishes to reveal on that subject at this time.

What's their height?

42 inches or 3.5 feet in the doll. He stood at nearly 5’9” before the incident.

What's their weight?

With the added weight of some interior machinery that makes it easier for him to move, he's about 25-30 pounds.

Anything else I should know about this character?

He enjoys sewing and sculpting and still spends his free time designing and making toys to sell. He doesn’t miss his human body all that much, but he is working on a larger, or at least more articulated vessel to try and move his soul into. Just for the sake of convenience.

Back when he still had a body, he adored citrus flavored teas and desserts.
