IC INFORMATION Characters Name: Nagito Komaeda Age: 18 Canon:Super Dangan Ronpa 2 Canon Point: Just after he’s been visited by Hinata while tied up at the beginning of Chapter 2. Species: Human Gender: Male Orientation: Hope-sexual. No, seriously. Komaeda, in canon, doesn’t seem to be attracted to either gender in particular, but more towards people that he considers to be ‘full of hope’. And by ‘full of hope’, I of course mean, ‘supremely talented’. Komaeda is attracted to talented people, regardless of gender.
History:Here -- In addition to the information presented here, it is important to note that just before coming to Hope’s Peak Academy, Komaeda claims that he received a note from the doctor diagnosing him with stage 3 lymphoma and also frontotemporal dementia. These are things that affect the way he acts and treats people greatly. Appearance:Here he is! Personality: Initially, Komaeda comes off as a very chipper, upbeat person. He is very eager to make friends with new people, and even more eager to be as helpful to them as possible. When faced with someone who isn’t inclined to talk to him much, he just fills the silence with his own rambling, preferring conversation always to awkward silence.
That being said, this very simple side of Komaeda disappears quickly as you get to know him. His most prominent trait is the he LOVES hope. He has a tendency to prattle on about it in any situation he can, loving to equate most good things with hope, and praising it as an absolute truth of the world - that hope will always win out over despair. He admires people who are talented because of this - because that talent has the potential to spread hope around the world and dispel more and more despair.
However, despite being accepted into Hope’s Peak Academy because of his good luck, Komaeda does not see himself as talented. He believes that his talent is actually worthless, and that he’s just a vessel that the absolute force of luck has decided to work through. Other than his luck, though, he has no real talent of any variety, and so views himself as nothing more than trash. He is consistently self-deprecating and refuses to accept any praise that is aimed at him. His self-loathing doesn’t seem to actually bother him at all, though. Instead, he sees himself as a pawn in the greater goal of pursuing the ultimate hope.
With that in mind, Komaeda has no problem sacrificing himself or even parts of himself in this pursuit. He even goes so far as to offer to be the victim of a killing on Jabberwock Island and help the killer set it up so that they will get away with it and prove that their hope is greater than everyone else’s.
As is probably obvious by now, Komaeda’s views on the world are always very drastic. Everything is either black or white, good or evil, hope or despair. There is no in between to his mind. And anything that he sees as ‘despair’, he absolutely has no tolerance for and will hate without remorse.
Komaeda is actually a very lonely person, though he would never expect anyone to genuinely want to rectify that. Having lost his parents at a very young age and gained his unique views of the world with their death, he grew up without many friends. People have always been put off by him and the way he sees things and so have always had a tendency to avoid him, no matter how much he tried to befriend them. This also aided as proof to his idea that he was completely worthless.
Lastly, Komaeda tends to come off as very cracked to most people. This is because he is very blunt and most often says whatever is on his mind, without any care for how the people around him might feel about his words. In fact, when people express distress at what he says, he is always very confused by it. He is also unaware of how personal boundaries should work, which leads to him touching people often. Just simple gestures, like putting a hand on their shoulder or holding their hand or brushing hair from their face, though they can also happen at mildly inappropriate moments. Abilities: Komaeda’s entire existence revolves around luck. Specifically, he has the worst bad luck imaginable that then yields even better good luck. If he is kidnapped by a murderer and stuffed in a trash bag, he finds a lottery ticket that wins him millions of yen in that trash bag and manages to come out alive. That is how his luck has always worked and he relies on it to act that way explicitly - no good luck comes without first a bout of bad luck. Other: As stated in the history section, Komaeda had lymphoma and frontotemporal dementia. While these diseases will be taken from him in this game (according to the FAQ), he has lived with the dementia in particular for so long that it has completely warped how his mind works, making it very difficult for him to alter his personality to anything other than what it is. Though, if at all possible, it would be easier to keep him in character if he were allowed to keep the dementia, but as a non life-threatening disease. Let me know one way or the other!
Third Person: It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining brightly down on the brilliantly green grass and a gentle breeze was keeping the heat of the day from scorching badly. Komaeda stood on the lawn, barefoot, digging his toes delightedly into the grass. A smile lit up his face as he turned it upward, drinking in the heat for a long moment. It really was just a perfect day.
Which was why he had decided he should set up a stand on the edge of the sidewalk. The sign above the stand read “Lemonade and Iced Tea: FREE” in large, unruly letters. He had obviously painted it himself because as he brought the last of the sweating pitchers to the stand, he looked up at it fondly. Not many people were out and about yet - it was still quite early in the morning - but that wasn’t going to stop him from getting his business up and running.
Taking a deep breath, he plastered the biggest grin he could manage onto his face and started calling out to every person he could see, no matter how far away from him. “Would you like some lemonade? Or some iced tea? It’s free, you just have to come get it! Isn’t it just a lovely day for some cold drinks?”
OTHER Housing Request?: Highest preference with Hajime Hinata. Otherwise, any castmate(s) would be absolutely lovely. Did you read the rules and FAQ?: Yessir, I did! Would you like your application to be unscreened?: Sure~
