Autumn Leaf

(This is one of the first faces you encounter upon entering the dingy, smoky Wallflower Office located at the fringes of District 12's gang-torn backstreet. Notably, the uniforms of most of the other employees share the flowery motif, along with thorny silvery chains.)
"Hello! Why, isn’t it our new prospect! You were wise to answer our invitation. Wise, indeed!
Welcome to the Wallflower Office. Though, I have to say, ‘welcome’ seems like quite a sanguine term considering our delicate circumstances. Oh, don’t look at me like that! We already know your little… secret. Our boss can hear the intention of people’s hearts. Their 'Will', so to speak. It’s our little secret too! Which means we both now know secrets the either doesn't want getting out?
We're now Accomplices!
So, so? How long have you been on the run for? Possessing an E.G.O. is a taboo in most places in the City. Even the worst of the backstreets syndicates will shackle you with criminal charges for so much as being discovered with one. Ha! But we both know it’s all a bunch of dry ink and paper mache. None of them really care about order, or any such ideals. They just want to cut, dice, and splice you up! Separate that precious little organ, and take it for themselves. Golly, how selfish!
Erm. Apologies. My name is Hydrangea! Got too excited, haha. We don’t get that many new faces around here! Friendly ones, at least...
Pretty name isn't it? Much better than my old one.
Here's a tip. You better forget about your old name too. For safety, we go by these titles around here.
Anyway, I’ll be your boss from now on! In official terms, your Supervisor. So long as you sign the agreement, that is. As a primary employment benefit, we won’t let anyone else cut you up. I mean, among other benefits of course. We're no scrouges here. But that’s probably the most important clause to you right now, isn’t it? Oh! But we have to listen to orders given by Wallflower. Our Operator.
To be honest, I’ve never even seen them. They mostly deal with the select... clientele for this office. Us grunts are sent to hunt Abnormalities! And not many people know this… but Distortions as well.
Isn’t it great?
Anyway, here is the form. Hurry, hurry. Sign up! I was told you get 10 minutes upon entry before it’s automatically made void, and our employment benefit expires…
I’d hate to clean up the mess... "
((Note, you can use whatever style sheet you wish. But it must contain the below information))
Wallflower Office Employment Registry -
(Most of the formal pages and printed sheets stacked on the clipboard appear to be filled out already. But you will realize that the woman had not provided a pen. Nor is there a section for a signature. Wrapped underneath the file is a nipped flower tucked into an altar cloth, one matching the flower name on the sheet. The only instruction at the bottom of the form to ‘to accept the contract, insert the flower stem-first into yourself.’)
Appearance: (An image of your character. Only stylized images. Though this is an 'anime' medium, I can accept more realistic art as well.)
Name: (The name of a flower has already been filled out on the sheet. In OOC terms, choose one that will represent the character. Real names can be revealed later.)
Age:
Weight / Height :
Fixer Grade: (From 9 to 1. Up to Grade 5, the lower the more 'effective' they are. While Grade 9s are considered not much stronger than a pack of Rats (note Rats is a term describing low-level street thugs, not associated with an syndicate), Grade 1s are seen as capable of handling jobs like bringing down a Star of the City. )
Psychological Profile:
(Bullet points, and brief explanations detailing flaws and strengths. Namely, ones that will benefit or bring detriment to a teamworking scenario. Written similarly to a psychological assessment report. Provide as many as deemed suitable.)
Residency Record:
(Other Offices you have worked under, even Wings, if any, along with the Districts you have had residency in, at some point or another. Keep in mind that crossing Districts is financially taxing, and is also very dangerous. For various reasons. Your actual backstory will be sent to me, via PMs, or via Discord for approval. This is to keep things mysterious and fun.
The Wallflower Office is based in District 12.)
E.G.O. Report :
(A hauntingly accurate description of your E.G.O. (whether it is manifested by oneself, or taken from elsewhere.) down to its nature, capabilities, and specific emotional anchor a.k.a Sin Affinity (Designated by a list of associated of SIN-types, such as Lust, Envy, Gloom, Wrath, Sloth, Pride, and Gluttony in any combination, but up to only 3). This combination represents a more descriptive emotion. As an example; "Vengeance" may result from "Wrath", "Pride", and "Lust" derived from a character's core ideals.
Utilizing E.G.O drains a user's sanity and willpower, making them more susceptible to psychological deterioration. Along with the descriptive report, is a detailed theoretical prediction of what occurs should the subject Distort. (or Corrosion, in the case of borrowed E.G.O. As using such E.G.O. requires synchronizing to the self-identity of an Abnormality, thus risking it overriding their own persona.) If such an event hasn’t already happened in the past. Otherwise, it is a brief classification briefly detailing the incident.
It should be noted that personal E.G.O. are the manifestation of one's own pinnacle belief and resolve, and can take many different forms. When faced with immense emotional duress, such as during great tragedy, or upon reaching their wits end, one can either succumb to the swirling negativity inside, or conquer this overwhelming mental outburst. Ultimately, controlling these wayward emotions, is the moment one becomes a manifestee of E.G.O. Failure to do so, instead leads to Distortion. While Distortions are esoteric like Abnormalities, the key difference is the retention of their rationality, as they were once human, despite losing themselves to their uncontrollable, single-minded obssession to fulfill their desires or emotions. Abnormalities were never human to begin with.)
E.G.O. Threat Level: (from ZAYIN, TETH, HE, WAW and ALEPH.)(Keep in mind, all current E.G.O.s will start at ZAYIN rank.
At this point, these items, whether weapons, clothing, or armor, are nothing more than special tools with limited supernatural properties.)
