Free to use coding, just leave the credit! You can move it around but DO NOT DELETE IT.

-This has... a lot of tabs, columns, rows, etc (though it is much shorter than its main code). Seriously, this is around 700 lines. I do not recommend trying this out if you are new to coding. I can however, fill this code out on request (though be aware I have other obligations outside of TH)

-This is meant to be an alternative to GRAND ORDER. This was made just so it would be easier to fill out for characters not related to Fate/Grand Order.

-The character featured here is my character "Vox".

-Mobile friendly? When I last checked it was, let me know if it isn't

-You may want to avoid running this in WYSIWYG; I haven't ran it in there but from what I've heard it can mess up coding

"Vox"

Species: Human

Gender: Male (trans, he/him)

Age: 25 years old

SO: Ace/Gay


Vox, or Benjamin if you really want to use his real name, is a journalist who wants to prove the existence of the supernatural. He has the ability to see supernatural phenomena/beings and discovered it as a teenager, but everyone laughed at him when he tried to tell people. To make things worse, said supernatural beings want to silence him out of fear of what his world's inhabitants would try to do if word got out. Still, he's not going to let anything stop him.

Vox is brave, honest, and kind, but he also is stubborn, eccentric, and is a huge risk taker.




Personality

The first thing you may notice about Vox is his eccentricity, but there’s always more to the person than meets the eye.

Vox is actually a very capable journalist; for one he’s not afraid to face danger for the sake of reporting factual news, and he will not stop until he gets everything done. He’s also very intelligent and analytical even if he might not look like it; a first impression of him will also hide the fact that he’s also a very good planner, and he can easily change his plans in the chance unforeseen events occur. He’s also actually responsible and will make sure that he gets everything done. He’s also honest as he doesn’t see a point in lying to people. He’s also quite fair and tries to see everything in an unbiased light. Despite all of that, he’s actually kind and cheerful, and won’t hesitate to help someone or to look on the bright side of things.

However, as great as a person he is, he still has flaws. As said before, he can be very eccentric, as he prefers having at least something to do to break up the monotony. That being said, he despises routine and will start to get bored if stuck in one; he gets bored quite easily so if he doesn’t have much to do he’ll start feeling very weary, very fast. Due to this he often gets his biggest thrills out of taking risks, even if they’re unnecessary, and to make matters worse, he’s also overly curious and will try to find out more no matter what. He’s also very stubborn and changing his mind is a very difficult task. He’s also blunt and will voice his displeasure if given the chance, thanks to also being quite sarcastic as well. However, despite those attributes, he can actually get emotional during certain cases and situations; due to this, he has to keep his emotions bottled up no matter what.




Abilities

Ability to see supernatural phenomena

Vox is able to see and interact with supernatural phenomena, like angels/demons and magic. He’s also currently trying to modify his camera and equipment to be able to take recordings of these phenomena.


Physical Skills

His other ability? Being super fast; after all, he’s just a normal human when it comes to attack and defense. You can’t get hurt if you’re able to outrun the danger. He's also surprisingly agile as well, but he does have one glaring weakness: he's absolutely incapable of swimming.


Weaponry

That being said, he does know how to use weapons (mainly knives and guns) and can use them if in a super tight spot. It’s a last resort thing, however. Just in case, he keeps several knives and a small gun in his coat if he thinks he'll need them.

Backstory

“You want my history? Well, if you actually want it…”

If you tried to ask Vox about his history, the first thing he’d probably talk about would be how he wanted to become a journalist. He had always wanted to do good in the world and writing was a hobby of his, so naturally, the career of journalism seemed like a perfect fit for him. But it doesn’t end there... you see, he wants to prove something that if accepted, would turn everyone’s understanding of the world upside down and everything would never be the same again.

He wants to prove that angels and demons, and the supernatural as a whole are real.

Everyone in his world believes that the supernatural isn’t real, that they’re just entertaining stories that shouldn’t be taken seriously lest you be seen as believing in fairy tales, to say the least. He’s the only one who actually believes in the supernatural; but why? Wouldn’t it just be better to give up? And to that, he’ll laugh and say “no.” He knows that the supernatural is out there, and wouldn’t be better for everyone to know?

And he knows that they’re real, he just needs to access a means that will let him show everyone they’re real. How does he know?

Well, he has the ability to see supernatural phenomena; it started in his teenage years when he started seeing a lone angel when he was walking home. At first, he just thought that his mind was making it up, but they never left. Out of curiosity, he tried taking a picture of said angel with his camera. Just as he was about to press the button, the angel smacked the camera out of his hands and onto the sidewalk. Nobody else seemed to notice this happen. To them, it just seemed that he was taking a picture of nothing and then out of clumsiness dropped his camera.

As the years passed, the incident always stayed with him; he just had to tell someone, but everyone he told always laughed at him and told him that he was just making things up to get attention. He finally had to stay quiet about it, at least until he started pursuing journalism. There, he got the hope that one day, he could write something that could reveal the supernatural’s presence.

However, he doesn’t have just human enemies. Some angels and demons have picked up on this quest of his to reveal the supernatural, and they often orchestrate events designed to prevent him from doing so. For now, these are things like his equipment suddenly breaking all at once, but as he gets closer and closer they’ll have to use more… efficient means. But why are they so determined to keep him from revealing everything? Well, according to their worries, if everyone in Vox’s world knew about the supernatural, then they would try to research more about it; this could in turn lead to mortals trying to steal power for themselves among many other consequences that would be best left unsaid and undone.

For now, however, Vox is currently trying to balance his job with his pursuit of proving that the supernatural is real, and he isn’t going to stop anytime soon.





Elijah [coworker/friend]


8297914?1600838849

Elijah is often fed up with Vox’s unusual antics and Vox often likes to snipe at his complaints; that being said, they’re actually very close friends and when they aren’t engaged in verbal combat, they’re often found just spending time together even outside of work. Vox also has dragged Elijah into his pet project, much to Elijah’s dismay. He still supports Vox on it.



Vaiel [he wants vox dead]


8340299?1601182444

Vaiel was the angel that Vox discovered in his teenage years; Vaiel at first brushed the young man off but now he recognizes Vox as a very real threat to his mission. Initially he had settled for trying to get rid of Vox's supernatural sight, but after finding out that Vox was going to always evade him, he has turned to more lethal attempts...

Likes


  • Mint-chocolate flavored things - "They just taste nice, ok? Look, I know I don't like sweets a lot, but..."
  • Heights - Vox can often be seen around rooftops or high places in general if he needs to go somewhere to think; he likes the view and the sense of freedom.
  • Tight spaces - He's not exactly sure why, but he has a tendency to go into tight spaces at times.


Dislikes


  • Most sweets - "They just... taste a bit weird to me? I'm not really sure why, maybe it's too much sugar or something?"
  • Hot weather - He doesn't really like taking off his coat unless he has to-
  • Large bodies of water/swimming - "..........." He's incapable of swimming and actually has a phobia of drowning.


Trivia


  • I got a lot of help from tentaclecuddles on developing this dude; thank you so much PK ;;
  • Only close friends can call him either Ben or Benjamin; anyone else who tries it won't even get looked at until they call him Vox. He doesn't actually mind his name that much, he just thinks it's funny to do this.
  • A way to get him angry is to assume he’s lying or to try to lie to him.
  • His last name is a reference to the so-called Murphy's law; it means "anything that can go wrong will go wrong."
    • His original last name was Moore, which wasn't meant to be a reference to anything in particular; however I had to change it upon learning that Vox's full name was the name of a paint company iusdfgdfgfb
  • "When they were younger, both Vox and Elijah liked to spend time in the local public square to play and talk about what they were seeing. Nowadays, after being reunited, they picked up the habit again, and often go there after work, drinking coffee, and reminiscing their childhood memories. Before that, Elijah was avoiding said public square for reasons he couldn't really put into words." (fuelli)
