Author's Note: Hey guys! This is my first fanfic ever, and since I'm so inexperienced I thought it would be fun to make my first project a collab with you guys. And as such, I will be accepting OCs that you guys would like to be part of the main crew. Please keep in mind that the story will be taking place in the Fates universe (the Fates main characters, like Corrin and the royals, will be integral to the story as we are following the Revelations route, with the twist of adding a ton of new characters in), and please give me as much information as possible so I can really capture your character. For the sake of preventing excessive spam, please do not submit more than 5 characters. Below are some of the pieces of information I think I'll need to write your character in properly, but please do not limit yourself to the list (no royalty please). If you are having trouble, please scroll below the template to see the character that I made as an example (it doesn't have to be quite that detailed; I kind of went overboard and will be showing you that backstory in the story itself). You can either type your characters into the reviews or send them to me at my gmail (the address itself won't display correctly for some reason, so it's "timberpeas12" followed by the regular gmail ending). I'd also appreciate a follow if you'd like to see your character in action (shameless self-plug lol). I look forward to your submissions!

The protagonist (story is told from his POV):
Name- Unknown
Goes by- Russell
Known aliases- The White Collar Criminal
Age- 18
Birthday- May 5th, 1999 (year only matters because he is from Earth)
Species- Human
Gender- Male
Appearance- Dark-skinned male of short stature (about five eight or so), with short black hair, brown eyes, and a thin mustache over his lip. Generally unathletic, and even a little chubby, hence the choice of a magic-based class, as you will see below. He also suffers from chronic migraines and lactose intolerance.
Sexuality- Heterosexual
Personality- While extremely bright, he is also hot headed, and frequently gets upset and even angry over seemingly insignificant things. He is very insecure about the way others feel about him and will pretend to be someone else to make others like him. High school has made him feel inadequate, and so he latches onto the one thing he feels he has left: his intelligence. He takes out his frustrations on those he feels are inferior to him (i.e., the "dumb kids"). He is incredibly superficial and materialistic, placing little value on "real" emotional connections.
Likes- Getting good grades, watching/playing football, playing video games (including Fire Emblem, which he likes for the strategy aspect)
Dislikes- Royalty, people who he feels are smarter than him, spiders, public speaking
Moral status- Morally ambiguous / outright evil, depending on who you ask
Allegiance- Corrin's army (though he doesn't entirely agree with everything they're doing)
Social and/or economic status- Came from an affluent family, but was sent to the world of Fates with little more than the clothes on his back
Occupation- Was a student at an American high school → became a tactician for Corrin's army
Class and promotion- Fighter - Berserker
Weapons of choice- Pistol, Hand Axe, Hammer
Birthplace- Columbus, OH
Hometown- Princeton, NJ
Backstory- Born to Indian immigrant parents in Columbus, Ohio, our protagonist is relocated as a child to Princeton, New Jersey, when both his parents become pediatricians at a local clinic. Growing up affluent, he has a relatively happy childhood and does well in school, but as he grows older his parents' absurd expectations, coupled with the everyday pressures of high school, crush him. After a tragic accident pushes him over the edge, our protagonist turns to bullying as an outlet for his frustrations in his senior year of high school, picking on a fellow student named Frank who he ridicules for being stupid. However, the protagonist's big money Wall Street aspirations are ripped away from him when a distraught Frank comes to school armed with a pistol and twelve bullets. After Frank targets the "smart kids," and shoots and kills two of them, our protagonist confronts his former victim. Frank misses his first shot, and our protagonist lunges. In the ensuing scuffle, the protagonist manages to wrestle the loaded gun away, but is shot in the ribs in the process. He passes out from his injuries, and when he wakes up he is no longer in New Jersey. Instead he is in the world of Fates, with nothing but the clothes he is wearing and eight bullets in a pistol that he doesn't know how to use. With nowhere else to go, the protagonist allies himself with an ambitious (and pretty) young princess named Corrin and embarks on a quest to save the world, all the while harboring a personal vendetta against Frank, the "assholes who dumped him into this shithole world," and anyone else who he feels has wronged him, including some of his allies from Corrin's army.
