What is it to live your life, without living your life? To live in disguise as another, to uphold some primal instinct of covertness, to live in the shadows? Lonely. But he who does- at least in Cedric's case- would likely never let you know he feels that way, for he would never let you know he's there in the first place... unless he slips up of course.

Cedric is an Alternate Personality in the DID System of a middle-aged, "uncomfortably-mustached" British man, and he disdains that fact. His body is not his own, his voice is wrong, and his main purpose is to make sure that the Host never finds out he shares a body at all. As gatekeeper to locked-away trauma, Cedric understands what is lost, if all is found.

The host works as a Detective for the Los Santos Police Department, however Cedric shares a lot of the work. Despite disdain for being in the nosiest department of the LSPD, he actually quite enjoys their job. Often found lost in puzzles and riddles, Cedric has a knack with the 'Weirder' areas of cases; if anything, they're where he thrives.

Design Notes:
  • D.I.D.: Cedric is an alternate personality in a Dissociative Identity Disorder System, and physically looks like Bill Constable. All imagery here is how he looks in their mind/his self image.

  • Eyes: His eyes seem normal at a glance- albeit a bright shade of blue- but they reflect the light in the same way a cat's might.
  • Glasses: Cedric cannot go 5-10 minutes without his glasses, before experiencing debilitating headaches; as such he is almost always wearing them.
  • Umbrella: Often found leaning on a blue umbrella, that doubles as a cane.
  • Detective Badge: Cedric is often found with an LSPD Detective Badge around his neck. This is based closely on the Los Angeles PD badge, for reference.
Character Imagery
  • Wonderland & the Cheshire Cat: Cedric often speaks in metaphors, and describes his personal world as 'Wonderland'. He is the Cheshire Cat, and Bill- the host- is Alice; his purpose is to keep him lost, yet let him believe he knows where he's going.
  • Cat-Like: Cedric is quite cat-like in general. He both does and does not want people to know he's there, or be his friend, or pay him attention. He'll also turn up in your house and give you stuff if he likes you.~

When in Disguise as Bill:

At first glance, this 'Bill' may feel a little off. He seems better-spoken, his clothing is neater, and his chin rests a little higher than usual. With a soft smile that's a tad too disgenuine, and a blunt, almost nasty words, spoken in a pleasant tone, Constable- as he prefers to be known- gives off a disguised air of superiority. Where-as Bill is usually a bit reserved, confused, and almost lost, this 'Bill' knows what he's doing, what he wants, and where he wants to go.

... and it's always when he's wearing those glasses.




With Open as Himself:

Cedric is rarely open as himself, but to those who know he's there, he presents he as he (to a point). He's dropped the weaker accent that his host adorns, and speaks with an airy voice; far more posh, far more refined, words often delivered in confusing riddles over clear structure. His posture is straighter, his chin even-higher now, and his smile seems more real... but in its authenticity, it's almost more concerning.

Cedric, you see, is always watching, and calculating, like a cat figuring how-best to understand and mess with their pray. He craves mind-games to fight his boredom, and seeks information to protect his System from outsiders; and these conciding, can lead to a subtle prying into the lives and businesses of others.
