3)Characteristics

-Background: He lived a happy and generally peaceful life with his parents, Autumn and Samuel Schatten, in a village close to Mountain Glenn, known as ‘Lichtblick’ (German for ‘Ray of Hope’). He got bullied for being a Faunus from time to time, but it didn’t bother him that much. That is, unless it involved physical assault. Which it did on several occasions. In one instance, Sean had been directly assaulted by a brown haired boy who looked to be in his pre-teens named, Root Ocher, who sucker punched him in the face and repeatedly kicked him in the stomach and face while Sean lay in fetal position in the dirt. Luckily for him, soon, a small girl with purple eyes and black hair, who stood about eye level with Sean, intervened and taunted to bully into a brawl. Sean had serious doubts of the girl appearing on top, but to his surprise, the girl was able to duck under one of the boy’s swings and firmly kick him in the stomach, leaving him to whimper and cough in the mud. Who Sean had now nicknamed ‘The Impossible Girl’ helped him to his feat, and they shared the following interaction. _________________________________________________________________ Sean’s POV~

I painfully get to my feet, and the impossible girl walks over to me and asks me with genuine concern, “Are you ok?”

I reply with, “Well, I feel like I just got trampled by a herd of my grandfather’s oxen, and my head feel like it’s about to implode on itself, but other than that, Peachy.” She laughs at this and she takes me back to my house to get me ‘Doctor’ed’ up. “Thanks for the help back there.” I say smiling slightly.

“We Faunus look out for each other.” she answers assuringly. “By the way, my names Jean. Jean Talon.” The girl adds.

“Name’s Sean, Sean Schatten. Nice to meet you, Jean.” We throw each other smiles as we get to my front porch. I try to knock on the door but my arms a too sore to move, so Jean knocks instead. When my parents open the door and see my face, the gasp and say almost in unison, “What on EARTH happened to you?!?!” Rushing Jean and I inside and dabbing my now bleeding nose and temple with a wet cloth. Jean and I take turns explaining what had happened to them. “I SWEAR, IF I EVER SEE THAT BOY, I’M GOING TO-!”

“Honey, please calm down. This much negative energy isn’t good for Sean’s condition.” My father tells my mother, who looks like she was going to punch a hole straight through the wall. “Deep breaths now. Repeat after me. In.” My father inhales, “Out.” He exhales. “In.” He inhales. “Out.” He exhales. “Keep going.” He urges my mother until she finally doesn’t look like she has a beet for a head. “I’m fine. Thank you, Dear.” My mother says, kissing my father on the cheek, and me on the forehead. My father then gives me an inquisitive look and says, “You know Sean, I don’t believe we’ve been properly introduced to your new friend.” Jean gasps, blushing and says,

“OH, I’m sorry! My name’s Jean. Jean Talon. It’s a pleasure.”

“Oh, what a lady. It’s a pleasure to meet you to, Jean.” My mother says giving Jean a warm smile.

“The pleasure is all ours.” My father replies giving Jean a handshake. He always had been one of the more, formal types.

“I’m Samuel Schatten, and this is my wife, Autumn. We’re Sean’s parents.”

“It’s nice to meet you Mr. and Mrs. Schatten.” Jean replies with a smile. “Well, I should probably get going. My mom’ll be getting worried, and I promised I wouldn’t be gone long.” Jean says, looking up at the analog clock on the wall.

“Oh well. We wouldn’t want to keep her waiting, would we? OH. Maybe one day we could meet up! You know get to know each other a little better.” My mother says childishly.

“THAT’D BE GREAT!” Jean and I say in unison. Jean soon turns to leave and we give each other a nice friendly hug. “Okay you two, her mother will be getting worried.” My father reminds us, and Jean leaves for home as the four of us wave each other goodbye. “Your new friend is quite a character.” My mother says as though she’s just seen something impressive beyond belief. “You should invite her over sometime, I’m sure we’d all enjoy it.” she finishes with a smile.

_________________________________________________________________

Narrator’s POV~

Sean had always idolized the heroes in the stories his mother had read to him as a child. They were the good guys. They never let injustice go unnoticed, or un acted upon. They were always there to give help to those who needed it. Because of this, Sean himself started self training himself to become a Huntsman, like his father. He started out with some basic martial arts, then moved on to sword play. After three years of this, he left his home, and enrolled in Signal Academy.

He never had many friends at Signal, and I’m not gonna lie, this did impact him emotionally for a while, but he eventually got used to it. Or as used to being called things like ‘Freak’, ‘Snake Eyes’, and ‘Scale Face’ as someone can be. Eventually becoming what Jean would refer to as ‘Signal’s Gender-Bent Pyrrha Nikos’, Sean graduated with honors from Signal, and moved on to Beacon Academy, where, after accidentally walking into and falling over with his childhood friend, Jean Talon, and passing initiation, was made leader of Team STRR, alongside Nathan Rua, Ryan Groen, and his childhood friend, Jean Talon.

During his time at Beacon, Sean didn’t seem to be an all-too unusual or special individual. That is, until the Volume One School Dance. It was here that Sean actually came out of his shell, and openly used his previously secret musical talent to add a little life to party. He started out as a single sing for this, but he was soon joined by the rest of his team, he as lead singer/main guitarist, Nate on Base, Jean as second guitarist, and Ryan as drummer. The song they started out with were the following:

1.) ‘Same Old Forest’ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRqTxCn05yI)

2.) ‘New Perspective’ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3sA5plF6kE)

3.) ‘Girls Girls Boys’ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rurvNYFKWLU)

4.) For Your Entertainment (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0F2hqlV8-N8)

During the attack on Beacon, while Sean and his Team were busy defending the fair grounds, a Beowulf had taken the opportunity to take a chunk out of Sean’s mother’s side before his father killed it. Things didn’t look good for Autumn before Jean arrived on scene, who had some experience in the medical field. She was able to get Autumn to a position in which she could be safely taken to a proper medical facility to be treated. Sean’s father, Samuel, sits with her almost everyday now, holding her hand, doing everything he’s able to make sure she’s comfortable. I mean, how hard can that be when dealing with someone with a 1’7 long bite out of their ribs? (I imagine it stretching from her hip to her armpit)

Anyway. After the fall of Beacon, Sean and his Team went traveling around the kingdoms of Remnant alongside their rival team, Team NOVA, to try to help as many people as they could as well as track down any possible leads as to who exactly was responsible for the attack. So far, all they know is that something went screwy with the Atlisian knights and in some way or another, and the WF was involved.

In one instance, while stoping in the big city for some groceries, the teams finally noticed that they were running a little short of money, so, they ended up taking a small gig in a local club. Songs played were the following.

1.) Home (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLlqYn2LIcg)

2.) Never Close Our Eyes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3dkVk3F57c)

3.) Time For Miracles (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t85fNZxLZIQ)

4.) Point of no Return (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr5dvcd67oU)

5. Whataya Want from Me (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1Fqn9du7xo)

Huntsman Mission: A sweet vengeance on evil.

-Initiation Partner: Jean Talon

-Personality: Some words I would use to describe him are ‘Playful, Kind hearted, vengeful, brotherly, selfishly-selfless/selflessly-selfish

He’s extremely stubborn, competitive, and doesn’t spend much of his time thinking about topics he finds displeasing. But despite this, he is also a philosophical and wise person who understands the beauty, preciousness and value of life, no matter where you find it. From the smallest insect, to the largest human. Hell, he has even shown to have regret over taking the lives of some sorts of Grimm, often imagining the lives they would have lead had he not ended them so soon. He is very loyal to his friends and family, and will not hesitate to put his life on the line if it means saving theirs. He has a sort of ‘Never give up, never give in’ mentality and his will to keep going and keep trying no matter what, which is almost matched by non. But even though he’s a very loyal person, he doesn’t seem to like relying on others to help him, supposing that if he can’t solve problems himself, he will surely become a weaker being and when push comes to shove, he wont be strong enough to shove back. He tries not to let the negative hold him back, and tries to loom toward the future with optimism and hope, no matter what the circumstances. He probably has the shortest temper of his team, second place going to Jean Talon. He has a flare for the dramatic.

PS. When I say 'selfishly-selfless' what I mean is essentially, he doesn't want others to hurt, so he often tries to take it all on himself. Yup. He's kind of an idiot at time.

-Likes: fighting, singing, playing music while he fights, the holidays, his team, winning, friends and family, the color red, orange smoothies, Star Gazing, heroes, movies, video games, chocolate, training, Pie, cake, roleplaying, strawberries, animals, cats, kittens, puppies

-Dislikes: WF, inequality, Faunus discrimination, nuts, Spiders, relying on others, people bursting in on while he’s singing in private, crowds

-Misc traits: He does NOT believe in Impossible.

Pyrrha Nikos is his hero. (He knows her from stories) He strongly admires her as a person as well as her skill as a fighter, and hopes to match her skill one day.

He finds it tragic and heartbreaking when heroes break.

(#Batman VS Superman. Look it up.)

He tries to be really smooth and suave but has a tendency to fall flat at the worst times.

-Allusion: The ArcAngel Michael/ The Homunculus Greed

Theme Songs: Angel with a Shotgun (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ua830TJ1jxA)

-It Has To Be This Way (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYAPgPH9hsI)

-Point of no Return (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr5dvcd67oU)

Quotes: “I don’t believe in impossible.”

“Do you believe in fate?……..Fate/it believes in you.”

“Great men are forged in fire. …. It’s the privilege of lesser men to light the flame.”


 * 1) The War Doctor

“I don’t believe in goodbye.”

“I want to live. Not survive.”/“I don’t want to survive. I want to live”

“I want to love life, not live it.”

“Alot of people ask me if I’m a Lover or a Fighter. Personally, I try to balance the two.”

-Weaknesses: Has been known to throw himself in front of shots aimed at his friends without a second thought. Doing this in many cases has left him physically drained and has cost him quite a few fights.

He often times has trouble expressing feelings of Love or attraction.

He has also been known to violently lash out in moments of extreme anger.

-Strengths: He has a very strong sense of right and wrong.

Whenever he has taken a hard hit for a friend or otherwise, and has been left drained, he usually just hypothetically says, “Ah, fuck it.” and forces himself to push forward to the end. This is also shown when he feels nervous or unsure about expressing feelings of Love to someone.

He has a secret skill of manipulating people through their emotions. Not necessarily in bad ways. He’s just good at getting their emotions out.

Habits: Often times speaks to the air as though he is trying to break the forth wall. He never truly does, he only enjoys doing it because in confuses people. He has no real awareness of the world outside the WOR.

He has a habit of boom boxing music on his scroll during fights. He says it inspires his footwork.

He sings in his sleep.

He has been known to taunt and speak to his opponents while fighting them to throw them off guard.

4) Trivia: He HATES the WF with the passion of a thousand+ suns.
