Current Characters: Demyx
Character: Dr. Senku Ishigami
Canon: Post-canon
Age: 3752 / appears 27
Background Information: Wiki Link
Personality: Senku is an incredibly deeply determined and tenacious individual. He works nearly tirelessly day in and day out on whatever has captured his attention. Even as a child, he was defined by his hyperfixation, determination and innovation. He could be seen as having grown up spoiled, considering how much his father doted on him and gave him every opportunity to flex his intelligence, but despite that Senku is far too humble for his own good. His primary philosophy in life is humanism. He believes in the collective strength of humanity, and to that end he rarely takes credit for his own work to the extent he should. He often says 'we did' as opposed to 'I did'. He sees people as having intrinsic value. He believes every person, no matter how old they are, or what their skillsets are, offer something of value. It's one of the things that draws people to him.
An introvert by nature, Senku finds large gatherings to be rather tiresome and he avoids them when he can. He would be far happier sitting on his own or with a trusted confidante then attending a party. He was rather anti-social as a child, but after the traumatic experience of being in the wilderness alone for six months he no longer finds solitude to be a comfort. He might want space to breathe, but he will likely stay within earshot of someone else. What he experienced, being alone in total deprivation, the counting and the solitude when he broke free has left mental scars on him. He is prone to occasional panic attacks and nightmares.
Senku's mind runs a mile a minute and works a lot like a computer. He partitions various functions when he's not actively fixating on something. One partition is continuous counting. He can no longer stop it. To that end, Senku is incredibly accurate as a timekeeper without needing a watch. He does all of that while doing the other executive functions of what he processes. He also partitions his emotions. Senku can often be accused of being unemotional, or too rational. It is not that he doesn't have emotions - he just has excellent self-control. He doesn't tend to act on emotion. He could be actively furious but acting out of anger to him serves no tangible purpose, so he tries to let it go.
He is far, far too forgiving, to his detriment. There appears to be nothing that anyone can do to Senku that he will not brush aside in the spirit of moving forward. People have killed him and been forgiven. He forgave the AI that petrified him, in the spirit of cooperation. It has backfired on him before, and yet he'd rather let the past stay in the past when it comes to personal conflict.
Senku does not like to be touched. He recoils from people who attempt to embrace him, whether they respect his boundaries or not is another question. Because he understands that people want some gesture of camaraderie he will offer instead the odd fistbump or punch on the arm, but the most coveted method of affection are his high fives. The only person he allows in his personal space without complaint is Asagiri Gen.
Social conventions are not something that Senku enjoys, understands or follows when he can get away with it. He no longer has a sense of shame after spending some months mostly nude. He wears and prefers gender ambiguous clothing, and did up until he was expected to present himself in a professional manner at the lab. He rarely stands on ceremony, people are lucky if even gives his last name, nevermind any of his titles. That said, at work he must behave professionally and command international respect and so he follows more expectations.
He cares deeply for children and sees the village as his family - which is good, because his father is one of the few that actually will remain dead from the entire ordeal and he would've been alone otherwise. He sees Suika as family, and his village rope bears red threading because she gave it to him. The red ties them together officially as family. He never would've considered himself a person who would get along with kids, but somehow they like him.
Despite his good intentions, his mischievous side allows for him to come across as horribly misunderstood at times, partly because he can be very literal, and also because he finds great interest in things that sound incredibly shady. He's a schemer, he can be quite the troll, especially paired with Asagiri Gen. The two of them together are trouble, and they have no qualms about messing with people who can certainly take it, for their own amusement. He can take what he dishes out though, he sees anything reciprocated as a challenge.
Senku can be very charismatic, despite not coming across that way initially. He doesn't speak flowery words (he has Gen for that) but he tends to win people over by proving his worth. He nearly unfailingly speaks the truth, no matter how insane it might sound. He sets himself goals and always meets them. Betting on Senku is an incredibly safe bet.
Abilities & Inventory:
Inventory: Senku is wearing a tattered blue cape, a labcoat, a dress shirt, tie, dress pants, a belt, dress shoes and his village rope.
Senku has no magical abilities, whatsoever.
Intelligence: Senku has a genius level of intelligence, and could probably quite rightfully claim the title of smartest man on Earth. He wouldn't, but he could. He also has an eidetic memory.
Encyclopedic Knowledge: He's a walking encyclopedia of all of the hard sciences including: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Cosmology, Astrophysics, Engineering, Mathematics, Medicine, Meteorology, Botany, Geology, Food Science, Cartography and he's pioneering time travel. He knows quite a bit about psychology, despite the fact he isn't a big fan of the field. He's dabbled in mythologies, religions and cryptography.
Languages: Senku is fluent in Japanese and English and has some degree of fluency in Russian. He's also fluent in Morse Code and the Iroha Cipher.
Engineering: Aside from the fact he's invented and re-invented countless items, he's gained skills in things like pottery making, baking and glass blowing. There is really nothing that Senku can't make given enough time and the materials.
Hacking/Programming: Something he's done more in his youth than anything, he notably hacked into a supercomputer at the age of 9, as well as modified his laptops and computers with software of his own making.
Medicine: Senku acted as the sole doctor for the village for roughly a decade. Prior to that he'd done many internships all around the world as part of his high school education. He has the skills of a general practitioner and a general surgeon.
Other skills: Leadership skills, clothes making, card shark and cheat.
Dreamotion aspirations: Given access to magic? Senku is going to study the heck out of it. He's going to attempt to learn as much as possible, and become as proficient as he can without a singular focus, much like his very chaotic scientific learning. To this end because he's coming at it from a place of no magic, he's likely going to struggle at the beginning and over time he will hopefully be able to focus on this and learn a wide variety of skills.
Suitability & Plans: Senku's story in canon has finished, and while he does have a project on the go he's not nearly as stressed as he used to be. There's room for more than just his work and keeping his people safe. I'd like to explore what he can do outside of the need to be so responsible. Letting him study the magic and try and understand and master dreamotion will give him the necessary project to keep him rather happy with his dreamself. He's a very versatile character who has restarted his life once before and he will really enjoy blending the realm of fantasy with what he considers to be his scientific truth. He's likely going to take a look at things like the electricity improvement and probably suggest and make motions towards developing Reverein. Honestly, he's probably the guy if there's anyone who wants to organize some kind of development in the city.
Test Drive Sample: TDM Link
Questions: Is there any kind of dreamotion type that would be off-limits? (Aside from blowing up the place in one shot, like I don't know, manipulating time, illusions, that kind of thing.)
