Profile
Hyatt
"As bleak as the future might seem, we still have each other. You can always count on me!"
✦
Friendly, hyper, and naive, Hyatt is like a beam of sunshine - always overflowing with warmth that can be overbearing at times.
Coming of age and breaking free from a sheltered childhood under the wing of a wealthy and controlling religious leader - Hyatt aches for experiencing the world and making meaningful connections.
Despite the gap he must catch up to between himself and peers, Hyatt's innocent and genuine nature will gain people's sympathy with ease. He's a caring, spoiling, and clingy friend who'll do anything in his power to see joy in his loved ones' faces.

Personality
✦ EXTROVERTED
Always needy of attention and eager to make/strenghten bonds, Hyatt will happily converse with new people and start interactions. He will easily do most of the talking, but he's also an attentive listener.
✦ CARING
Hyatt loves to show affection to his loved ones - from verbally expressing how much he appreciates them, to spoling them with gifts, to being almost smothering with his touchy-feeliness. He also has a habit to call everyone he likes by a cute nickname.
✦ SELF-CENTERED
Despite his sympathetic and generous nature, Hyatt was raised to believe he was a special being chosen by the heavens - and he tends to interpret life under such lens, often romanticizing or vilifying certain events or people to fit his own narrative.
✦ PERFORMER
Having been praised for his melodic voice and his natural talent for singing since childhood, Hyatt nurtured a love for the performative arts and a craving for being on stage. His current aspiration is to become a professional musical theatre actor.
✦ DUMB
Hyatt might not be the brightest tool in the shed. In fact, "bright" is how you'd describe his personality - not his intellect. He's completely clueless, will often miss social cues, and can't depend on logic to save his life. His critical thinking is a skill in development.
✦ HONEST
Hyatt is as easy to read as an open book - but he also actively chooses to be honest and clear about his thoughts and feelings, and expects the same from others. He's always in touch with his emotions and isn't afraid to let them show - to the point of overreacting or oversharing at times.

BACKGROUND (WIP)
GENERAL SUMMARY
Hyatt (along with his love interest, Zephyr) exists in multiple settings/timelines - the two main ones being my own OC universe (which I'll refer to as main lore), and the Oblivious Dream TTRPG campaign. Both these characters were originally created for the campaign, but eventually evolved to independent OCs.
Details such as ages, relationships and appearances vary with each setting; so far Hyatt and Zephyr's main lore covers their early childhood to mid 20's. The point in the timeline that I illustrate in art most often is after Zephyr and Hyatt's reunion at college age, about a year before they start a relationship.
MAIN LORE TIMELINE

OBLIVIOUS DREAM TIMELINE
Hyatt is my player character in the Oblivious Dream TTRPG campaign, ongoing since May 2020. It uses an adapted version of the Magical Burst system, which is heavily inspired by Madoka Magica.
ObliDream is set in the year 2200, in an (implied post apocalyptic) utopian city called New Horizon - an advanced, self sustainable metropolis with low crime/poverty rates, great public resources, and a proeminent pop culture industry. By day, the main characters attend Kalafina Academy, a prestigious school with a heavily art-oriented program. After hours, armed with magical powers granted by a contract with a familiar, they keep the city safe from threats such as preying monsters dubbed "witches" - or they try to, while tackling inner turmoils between fellow magical girls and dealing with their own personal issues.
The incessant and traumatizing trials brought Hyatt close as kin to his allies - Mie, Louise, and Priscilla - and forced him to mature from his childish, idealized views; but even when the future seems hopeless, Hyatt refuses to let go of his belief in love and companionship. He also refuses to let go of his crush on Zephyr, who's a total fuckboy in denial.
RELATIONSHIPS
Zephyr
[ childhood friend/love interest ] Zezé
Zephyr was his childhood playmate and guardian, whom he first met at age 4 and became extremely attached to as they spent every sunday morning together while Zephyr's parents attended the cult. They eventually parted ways, but Hyatt still held the memories close to his heart - until they reunited years later by chance, and Hyatt's old puppy crush emerged as a big, real crush. Although they grew up to become almost polar opposites, they still value their old friendship and try to keep in touch with it - despite the obvious tension hanging between them. Hyatt becomes easily flustered around Zephyr, charmed by pretty much everything about him - but specially his caring demeanor (towards Hyatt) and his freedom.
(Hyatt is two years younger than Zephyr in every setting!)
OBLIVIOUS DREAM
Louise
[ Best friend ] Loulou
One of Hyatt's first friends at Kalafina Academy and whom signed the magical contract along with him. Louise came from an entirely different world than himself, but their simple-mindedness and love for family make them an easy match. They can't be trusted to solve problems by themselves; the "simple-minded" part is real. Hyatt is often troubled by Louise's tendency to use violence as first resort, but he knows she has good intentions in her core.
Mie
[ Best friend ] Mimi
One of Hyatt's first friends at Kalafina Academy and whom signed the magical contract along with him. A socialite and lonely child, Mie's background hits close to home to Hyatt; he regards her as a wise older sister - despite being the same age - trusting her leadership and judgement in social matters. They often have arguments powered by miscommunication, but make amends soon after.
Priscilla
[ Best friend ] Pripri
Priscilla was enrolled in Kalafina Academy later and welcomed in the squad after a bumpy beginning. Hyatt projects a sense of belonging on her, and a wish to lead her in discovering new experiences - as she, too, grew up cloistered from society; albeit in a completely different way. Despite being younger, shorter, and dumber, Hyatt regards Priscilla as a protégée, spoiling her as he would his younger sister.
Kyabeam
[ Familiar ] Kyabeam
The familiar who offered the magical contract, failing to explain the terms and conditions. Hyatt finds them to be very unreliable and unhelpful, although apparently inoffensive - but still presses for explanations on magical shebangs when he has the chance to. He's not sure if they're an ally, but doesn't think they're an enemy either.
Klaud
[ Legal guardian ] Grandpa
Hyatt's adoptive parent who brought him home as an infant, intending to raise him to occupy an important role in his cult. He was unaccepting of Hyatt's coming out as a boy at first, but now regrets his initial treatment of his child, and oughts to support his path to a truer self. Hyatt doesn't overlook how controlling he was in the past, but is happy and more than willing to mend his relationship with his only guardian. (picrew)
Maria Madelaine
[ Foster sister | GM's NPC ] Maria
A sweet and kind young orphan brought home by Klaud in an attempt to correct Hyatt's rebellion - and whom was instead embraced by him as a little sister. Hyatt sees his own younger self in Maria, who now walks the same steps to fulfill his disavowed role in the cult; he has a desperate wish to break her free from the church's oppressive clutch, despite Maria's contentment with her fate. (picrew)
Franciscus
[ Enemy | GM's NPC ] Reverend
The young priest who quickly escalated the cult's hierarchy and now holds Maria's custody. Cunning, patronizing and cynical - Hyatt can't stand breathing next to him. He's convinced he has major evil plans and will not rest until he unmasks the big baddie and retrieves his little sister from his malicious influence. (picrew)
