appearance
((notey: a reference picture of sorts for axel's deer appearance can be found le here. for an example of his canon human appearance, click here~))

extravagant, slender and sharp, axel is quite the sight to behold. blood-soaked and crimson-tipped, one of the most prominent features about him is his vivid, blazing pelt. though a dark yet deep red all over, his colouration varies slightly depending upon different points of his body, with some parts (ie. tail tip, joints, ear points, hair-like protrusions, etc) being lighter or darker than others. despite his gender, axel is quite effeminately-built. with an overall slender frame broadening into wide, curvaceous, almost child-bearing hips, he has often been mistaken for a doe at first glance. despite his long and lean physique, the flurry is quite muscular, able to pack quite the punch or throw a mean kick if need be, with agile legs also suitable for speed.

quite noticeable are axel's spiked, hair-like tufts, which protrude from the top of his head and run the length of his swan-like neck. almost like the spines of an echidna, this 'hair' is quite solid in its overall makeup, the spikes being stubbornly in place. even when wet, after a quick shake, they will bounce back into their original places. axel's eyes are a toxic, intense green, framed by slithers of black markings (almost like eyeliner), with a single inverted dark purple triangle teardrop marking beneath the rim of each eye, proceeding down both of his strongly pretty cheeks. carved into the curve of his right shoulder, just shy of his withers, is a rip-jagged number eight, a mark of his previous rank in the organization, printed out in roman numerals (VIII). crowning his head between slim, pointed ears are two lengthy gazelle spears, needle-points tipping tapered skewer shafts, dangerously sharp and able to pierce most things if need be.

doesn't shine

personality
axel is, without a doubt, a very hard-to-read character. bold, spontaneous and somewhat outgoing, this eccentric individual's persona suits his unique appearance far too well. axel attracts attention very easily-an arrangement he rather enjoys. he has a somewhat adult sense of humour and a suggestive demeanour which, teamed with an affinity for flirting and teasing, can lead to interesting results. despite this, though, the flurry gets along extremely well with fawns and the young, and can be quite the 'babysitter', taming his oftentimes inappropriate attitude or, indeed, allowing it to brush swiftly over the heads of his more youthful comrades.

however, it must be kept in mind that axel is quite an accomplished actor, able to manipulate and mislead very effectively-what he seems is, in most cases, not what he actually is. quick-thinking and sharp, he has a mischievous mind and is very intelligent, as well as being highly proficient in regards to evaluating others and their thoughts and motives. at times, he can be cryptic and skilful with his words (for example, he has a tendency to cleverly skirt about the truth to avoid speaking of something he would rather not). cutting wit, cunning charm, and a large sense of drive (when he has a desire for something, he will stop at nothing to get it), teamed with an occasionally volatile temper, make axel extremely dangerous unless you have caught his interest or gained his loyalty. sly and slick, he is certainly no stranger to betrayal and deceit. without a doubt, axel can be very ruthless, 'heartless' even-an accurate term to use, considering his lack of heart which lead to his 'nobody' status. unable to feel made axel a hazardous being in his previous life, and his same absence of heart in this state renders him no more safe, if you ever give him a reason to become a threat. it is difficult to ascertain where exactly his loyalties lie.

regardless of this darker side axel is, largely, a rather likable being. also worth noting is his bond with fire-axel is a pyromaniac and has a nothing short of supernatural power over flames, or 'pyrokinesis', which could give him the upper hand in battle. occasionally he can be seen about, lighting things up just for the entertainment value. his control over fire is tight, the two sharing a blazing tie to one another and, given good reason, it hasn't been uncommon in the past for the flurry to make everything go up in flames. with this in mind, it is no surprise that axel is not at all too fond of water.

in hell~ ♥

extra notes
+  axel is taken from the video game series 'kingdom hearts' and, whilst he is based upon his character as he is over the entire series (ie. chain of memories, kingdom hearts 2, 358/2 days, etc etc), my muse for him is drawn more from chain of memories than the other titles (because chain of memories axel was just win ♥) i stick to canon as closely as possible. if you'd like to read about axel's history and canon character, click here to read his spoiler-rific wikipedia page :B

+  SPOILER ALERT (highlight this dot point to read it if you already know/don't care if you read a spoiler regarding the end of kingdom hearts 2)
axel came to the endless forest after his 'death' towards the end of kh2, and has all memories of all events in place. however, he doesn't know about what happened after he dissolved back into nothingness, so he is unaware of the demise of the remaining organization members/sora/the rest of the crew

+  in the game series, axel was known to have a quirk of saying 'got it memorized' or 'commit it to memory' (in the japanese version) an awful lot after stating certain facts or names. in-forest, axel will always nod whilst bowing as a greeting-this is my way of having him say his name and 'got it memorized' afterwards. indeed, nodding in general in-forest is my way of having him say 'got it memorized', though nodding can also just be nodding on occasion. this isn't all that important to know when interacting with him but, as it is his trademark saying, this is just a little something i felt i should include ♥

+  axel-deer always carries a spell around on him in the forest-why? because i figured it to be the best way to display some of his fire abilities in-game. of course, just because he spells you doesn't mean he's setting you alight-most often, it will just mean he's using the forest magic as per normal. however, during combat or when he's feeling particularly mischievous, he may cast a random spell upon his target, symbolic of him using some of his fire magic. this fire magic could be anything from a full-scale blaze in battle, to a tiny playful ember (ie. he has taken to randomly spelling roxas as they play about, which could be taken as him cheekily throwing some of this flame his way in a light-hearted manner, or during sparring to give it that extra entertainment value). again, like with the above point, it is not all that important to know this when interacting with axel but, for kicks, if he casts a spell on your character randomly, this may be him sending a little heat your way if you decide to accept it to be that ♥ also, please note that, as a master of fire, this flame can be made not to harm, so don't worry-your character won't be insta-bbq'd unless you agree to decide it so~!

Whoooa my goodness, so many

Quickly cooking up some replies to your epicness before dindins *ahem*:

@ Rhybread: adsfiu *dies* thankyou so very much Rhy, I really appreciate that!

I'm so glad you think it's beautiful! And oooh, I'm thinking that Axel will be very interested to meet Victor, too-I tried to check out Victor's bio then, but I think the link in your siggy is broken~?

I would suggest changing it to a node link (change the title of the blog to a . sign, save it, then change it back to the original title-it becomes an unbreakable link so you can change the title to whatever and all your links will still work ♥)-just a heads up, it makes life so much easier!

Also, I only just found the lovely comments you left on my other blogs-thankyou so much for all your awesome, and apologies for the late replies, I need to check my track list more often!

D: I so want to continue them though because it's so awesome how many people want to interact with Jester and I appreciate each and every one of the awesome replies I've gotten, but I just have had difficulty cooking up replies to them all! D: I apologize! I will get to it though, for sure
