Other Characters Played: Astral
Preferred Housing: No specific preferences, but if she could go in a house with say, a non-droned sibling or parent that would at least somewhat interact with her that would be nice~ I would also appreciate it, however, if she wasn't in Link's house or on his street (Goldberg); she'd probably cling right off the bat, and I'd like her to meet other people before that happens..!! (Maybe someone who can 'relate' to being human-i-fied?)
Character Name: Fi
Character Series: The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Character Age: Unknown- appears to be a young girl. Assuming '14' for now. (Technically, Fi is genderless, as Fi is a sword. But, for the sake of things...)
Background: http://zeldawiki.org/FiPersonality: OOH BOY.
Now the first point that needs to be stated right off is that Fi is, quite bluntly put, the computerized mind of the Master Sword. Her diction is vast, and her choice of words is typically considered advanced or at least unnecessary, using phrases that are clearly 'roboticized' in nature; words such as 'designation' instead of name, for example. Fi supposedly has no emotions, because she cannot experience them. She speaks bluntly, having no sense of tact, or even of timing, simply stating the facts. A fine example can be seen when Link is in the middle of battle, low on health and...
'Master. You appear to be low on hearts.'
She observes and speaks as an automaton would- which makes sense, that is what she WAS. The closest thing to emotions she gets is happiness; she admits this at the end of the game while saying her goodbyes to Link. Perhaps this is hinting at the fact that she CAN in fact experience emotions, but it's quite unknown. As it is, it'll be assumed it was simulated to fool even herself in the end, with all other emotions ignored and 'un-needed'.
She heavily believes in (being a computer) calculated results. ...However, near the end game, she in fact used 'luck' as a term, showing that she could have been gaining a personality contrary to what is believed of her computer-like existence for reasons unexplained by the game.
But Fi is 'put to rest' soon after this, taking an eternal sleep in the Master Sword; so it cannot be known the extent of this anomaly. She says that certain things 'please her'; but to what extent she was able to feel emotion as a blade is unknown, particularly since she herself states that she does not need emotions; she even refers to her friendship with Link as a 'nessecary companionship'. Her memories are 'data', and considered precious- in the end, it is far more likely that she did not have enough time to understand emotions; she herself seems to address this.
More importantly, she's going to suddenly have all those emotions and emotional triggers in Mayfield- she's going to have a human body, with very human hormones and reactions. She will feel true pain, she will see things that, unlike as a sword and 'computer', will in fact trigger emotional response, because she cannot simply ignore them for the sake of a goal as easily.
For this reason, her 'personality' will be an interesting mix; she'll be blunt, and seemingly uncaring- but she will quite likely feel incredible shame and guilt after realizing something happens as a result of her words, despite not showing it. She'll seem emotionless, or blank- even mildly surprised at all times, but it is more likely a constant state of mild fear and confusion. She won't entirely understand what happens when things happen as a reaction- I have no doubt that, the first time she cries, she will be caught between the emotion causing the reaction and the confusion of all this 'leaking' on her face.
Fi will additionally be more inclined to 'follow and assist' than lead; she was a sword, and a sword with a master and pre-written purpose before. Now, that is gone. She has no clue what to do, what is happening, and what is going on, and that is what she needs.
It is quite likely that she will have a tendency to bottle emotions due to all of the above as well; in an attempt to react as she would have, and to cope with all the memories. For this reason, when the trigger finally snaps, it can be assumed and guaranteed that it will be a horrible mess that she has no clue what to deal with- damn hormones and tears and things...
Regardless. In a nutshell? Blunt, but caring, horribly innocent in her words, and quite likely to work 'step by step' for each moment thanks to no longer having a prewritten history in her mind...
And of course, she'll still speak rather 'computer-like', using percentages to describe certainity among things.
Abilities: As the Master Sword, Fi was in possession of a number of abilities, the first and foremost being the memories of a destiny that has already been played out- so she'll retain that at the very least, even if she can no longer fulfill the programming required to pass the information along. Other abilities, not so much. At the base level, becoming one with the Master Sword; even having the sword there is an ability taken, as well as her floating, and likely even her singing. (Dancing can likely stay, though it's not obviously 'the same' without the floating.)
In addition to the base abilities she had as the sword, there is her other purpose- dowsing. Using the blade, she was able to 'dowse' for certain objects. The sword itself was additionally capable of the 'skyward strike', a powerful slash of energy that could be gathered, aimed, and fired- something that, if she becomes the sword again, will be absent.
And of course, she'll be 'humanified' coming in, so things such as her appearance in general would have to be regained as well.
Sample Entry: The sky is bright today. There is a bird outside the window on one of the branches.
If this science book is correct, it is preparing to mate, via various sounds and songs to impress females of its species. The book does not explain any further on how mating occurs however, so I cannot be 100%, or even 80, or 60% certain of that.
It is strange to have arms. It is strange to be able to lift and hold things, and it is strange to be 'human' as they are called. Someone at 'school' as it is called mentioned that certain objects, and even states of being, may be returned after a period of time. Perhaps when that happens, I will no longer have my arms.
However, I do not know what I will do if I become the Master Sword again. It is my duty. It has always been my duty. It is what I was created for.
But I do not understand what my purpose would be any more.
...And now, I do not think it would be good to fall asleep for eternity as I promised I would.
