A new baby!
Hello everyone!!!! It's me, Meggie, with a sophomore!!! This is Cicero Cook, a sophomore Thorntrail, your tiny debate overlord, and the pain in student council's side (soph rep, naturally).
- Classes: Charms, transfig, artificing, hermeticism, home mag-ec, DADA, symbology, muggle tech
- Clubs: Student Council (sophomore representative), Magirobotics, Debate (president), Culinary Club, Film Club, Performing Arts
- From New York!
- Cranky mom friend. Cicero is compelled to take care of other people even if they don't want it or he doesn't want to do it. He's used to being the only "adult" at home, and took on a lot of responsibilities he shouldn't have, but he can't break the habit. SUPER responsible, but also super nosy.
- Not as rule abiding as you'd think he is. More likely to give the sophs a logical approach to a bad idea than stop them.
- Cranky in general, has a rather sharp, irritable personality. Good heart, bad temper.
- Drawn to messes. He's not happy unless he has something to fix! His self-worth is determined by how much of a service he is to you and your unfolding disaster! Unfortunately, he has a tendency to make things worse when he meddles.
- He's a steampunkish tinkerer who likes to make lots of little magical devices, but they're almost uniformly pointless. He's not good at big ideas, but he's very talented at making little things work. His contributions to Artificing and Magirobotics are... unique.
- Excellent handwriting, great at calligraphy, imitate other peoples' handwriting.
- Cicero has a particular talent for drawing sigils, which is designing a single symbol that captures the essence of a spell and can be activated by being touched/read. It's a VERY difficult form of symbology, and while he can only do it with super simple spells, that's still pretty impressive for a teenager.
- He's Debate Club President! He has a bias towards his fellow sophomore and wants more of you to join!!! DID YOU HEAR THEY MADE IT TO NATIONALS LAST YEAR??? He's mad that broomsports get more attention than debate.
- He's also a soph student council representative, and he's ready to make sure soph voices are heard!
- His cockatoo speaks in gramatically correct sentences that make no sense and sound like they were composed by a phone's auto-fill.
- Cicero desperately wants to be in Arithmancy and sometimes shows up uninvited to study sessions and "borrows" your homework.
- Lines:
- Friends???? He's prickly but hopefully some people can handle that.
- Upperclassmen he's made himself a huge nuisance to? Beleaguered TAs sick of his constant questions?
- Enemies/rivals??? He will DEFINITELY try to start a rivalry with an upperclassman. He's coming for you, junior overachievers. You might already be in a rivalry with him and not know it yet.
- Personal projects. Did you accidentally convince Cicero you're a mess? Is he still hung up on having seen you cry after an exam and now he's convinced you're emotionally fragile and needs to look out for you?
- WHATEVER. This stuff's easier to figure out in-game but those are some ideas.
- Friends???? He's prickly but hopefully some people can handle that.
