Appearance + Pings
adorable boy next door charisma, follows cirrus dress code to the next level (fuck business casual, he is full on business.) Favors accessories like gloves and thigh belts. Always has a thigh belt. Almost always wears whore gloves. Like watches, fedoras, and scarves, too. he comes off as equally capable of being an investigator or part of an organized crime cell upon first meeting (he's neither mostly, he's a famous detective mystery novelist surprise!)
Pings for those capable of 'sensing' auras as a something tainted by circumstance rather than a someone. also warning pings that he's dangerous or to not take lightly, but it's not clear why. Weird!!
(Also happens to be extremely unpredictable. If you think you got him all figured out, keep it to yourself.)

Limelight Info
Powers
bombogenesis
rapid intensification. weather weapon forgery.
dunkelflaute
Status effect. rarely used. don't want it to be used on you, not a fun experience— not because of the blessings being made useless, but because of the effects. (more details tbc.).
snow eater
Dispel/Cleanse for Cirrus-members. Memory rewrite of experiences (false memory or memory strip). (More details tbc.)
*Note* not a power and one of his canon skills. although he has no memory of ever training extensively beyond a gun,he is able to pick up any weapon and use it masterfully. the weapon he's worst at using is a bow. Quite dexterous and agile. hits harder than he should considering he doesn't train with weapons (he works out and keeps on very good shape in general but not hours and hours), knows best spots to disarm threats, etc. had good sense of awareness of his surroundings. personality shift if pushed into a decent fight.

Limelight AU
Keeps himself mostly an enigma while being rather open and approachable. Very amicable and willing to charm his way into information acquisition, regardless of the kind. If it piques his interest he's there. He has a bit of a reputation for "always getting what he wants," even though he's never shown himself to be anything but friendly, patient, and tolerant. He likes the idea of being some kind of heroic individual where he can offer help to anyone and everyone, and supposedly if he actually says he promises, you can trust him to see things through until the end.
He is a freelance investigative journalist, particularly for the newspaper The Barometer according to most who know him and (one of his) business cards.
He actually is the author of a popular crime drama series. His novels are under the pen-name M. S. Elyod. His work in investigative journalism (and other stuff) helps him writing compelling and successful mysteries. He's a talented storyteller through and through. His identity as Elyod is not publicly known anymore, although if someone did enough digging or was a fan from the very start, they would know Sam and Elyod are the same. Sam quickly became disenchanted with how people treated him when they thought they had something to gain even as superficially as popularity, so he faded out his identity very quickly. He doesn't have a great view of the entertainment industry, but is very good to his fans.
He has a classified position within the Cirrus Network concerning information retrieval. he's the guy that they send after anyone that's stolen or obtained information that they shouldn't have in their possession and deals with them. He may also have a hand in dealing with those rare incidents where a person who defects from the Family is magically never heard from again. His code name is: Themis. This position is top secret. Only Icarus the hacker has known contact with Themis. (Actually suffers from amnesia 4/5 years ago, but lies about it for various reasons. Only person who knows for sure he's an amnesiac is Lucy Beaufort, Jun, and the higherups in the Cirrus Network. He's seen as a very capable and obedient "dog" by the Atmosphere, but are we were of his Family and his position and also sees that as an asset worth holding onto. They have a tight leash on him as a result. ) ** Sam is actually the heir to an old world Mafia family that's very well respected in the underground. They have a long standing reputation of being judge, jury and executioner to those they seem to be transferring honor or involved in what the family considers unsatisfactory behavior. They follow a strict code, and are just really not the Family anyone is eager to get in the bad side of. The leader of this Family is always known by the title Il Re, making it's very difficult to know when family heads actually switch. Although Sam is considered dead, he does act as Il Re. However, he has his right hand running the Family until he is ready to focus fully on the family business. He is still the final decision maker. **

Player Comfort Notes
No squicks.
I like plotting and meaningful CR, even though I can just wing it, too. So don't be shy if you wanna do things.
permissions wise, if it's a maybe, I appreciate a heads up OOCly before it's sprung up ICly. If it's yes, feel free to just go dive right in during a thread. Permissions will change as he gets certain memories back.
Just a note that character will charm, flirt, or be otherwise playful by default. Even if my brackets indicate he finds your character appealing or he's interested in them, OOCly I have no intentions or assumptions for shipping. If it makes you uncomfortable, just let me know and I'll make sure he doesn't do it to your character.
Character is a compulsive liar when it comes to himself. Amnesia has really done a number on him, and not having his own story to tell drives him mad, so he pretends to have many. I super welcome anyone who can pick up on it and is interested in the CR of sorting him out, but it won't be easy.
His identity as a famous novelist is also a CR point development I'd like to do as a fun CR angle, but also is not something easily obtained. Basically I just want to do these angles of CR only with people who are interested in investing in CR with Childe. Thanks for understanding!
