o1 ✍ sharpe's introduction ✍ voice + video
voice;
Money in cards and saying me rifle’s been changed.
[ Except that’s not actually how he says it, it’s more like: munneh in cards and sayin’ me rifle’s been changed. Sheffield, Yorkshire haunts the streets of Exsilium now, thanks to one Richard Sharpe. ]
The only cards I know of are those given by weasely merchants looking ta fleece more money out of you. But you ain’t asking for money, are you? Yer asking me to fight with me blood and sweat, and you ain’t even decent enough to give me a half-ration of rum, or even a proper King’s shilling.
[ Thud. The sound of rifle on stone ground. There’s a soft shuffling sound and tapping of fingers on the screen of the tablet. The video switches on. ]
video;
Me name’s Richard Sharpe. [ Blond hair, green eyes, a scar on his upper left cheek. His lips are twisted into a scowl, and at the edge of the screen, you can see the edge of his Rifleman’s jacket. Have a picture.
If you met him during the masquerade, he's a lot cleaner now. Face-wise anyway. You can actually see what he looks like underneath the layers of dirt, and his hair isn't just a layer of dust anymore. ]
If yer name's Patrick Harper, I suggest you get yer arse over here before I shoot it off you.

Pardon me, but are you an elf or imp or some sort? [ Well, he's met one of either, so yeah. ]
[video]
Sort of. I'm what your people call a demon. [And then he quickly adds...] But I'm not interested in attacking people or leading souls astray or anything like that.
[video]
Also, he's very blunt. Get used to it. ]
Yer a bit too small ta be one as well. [ Droll. ] You got a name? A proper one?
[video]
[video]
Aye. [ Beat. ] So what kind of demon are you?
[video]
He hesitates on how he should answer the question. There's a lot of ways to answer it, and most of them make him uncomfortable. After a moment, he decides on what he thinks is the least uncomfortable to himself--and also what resonates with him the most.]
I'm an assistant exorcist in the Magdalan Order. I work with a nun named Sister Rosette Christopher to stop supernatural threats and other demons from harming humans.
[video]
I've just got a question: Can you fight?
[ Too many words he doesn't know. Also, the supernatural? He still doesn't believe that much in it, despite what's in front of him. ]
[video]
Yes, sir.
[video]
How? [ Beat. ] If you want ta satisfy me curiosity.
[video]
I know how to use a blade and a gun...so if I'm in this form, that's normally what I do. If I have to use my true form, then I can use other abilities, or my claws.
[video]
Strange world, this, where people talk of using claws in battle.
