Character Name: Clear
Canon: DRAMAtical Murder
AU/OC/Previous Game: AU in that he was never revived at the end of his route in the game.
Age: Unknown (looks to be in his early 20s)
Appearance: Clear is of average height, looking to be about 5'11". It's pretty hard to tell what his body type is considering his taste in fashion consists of an oversized lab coat, an equally baggy button-up shirt, a yellow scarf, baggy gray pants, and even grayer boots... but beneath the blob of clothing his body is slender, well toned, and a bit muscular. Seeking to hide his face from people he doesn't know, Clear constantly keeps a gas mask over his face. When he takes it off, it reveals... another mask. Under that one (finally) is his real face. Silver-white hair falls into pink eyes and he has two, small dots under his lips.

Arrival Route: Choice
Cause and Impact of Death: Heavily damaged in the battle against Alpha 1 and Alpha 2, Clear was slowly shutting down. He asked that Aoba grant his last wish and finally shut down completely from the damage to his system.
It came as a surprise to Clear when a force caught his soul. Being an artificially created being, having a soul never occured to him, and he agreed readily to the chance to help another world as it's what his master would have wanted. He'll be melonchony about not being around Aoba, but will be optimistic about having a chance to learn about and be more human.
Character Info:
Clear was created as a weapon with the ability to take over a person's conciousness by Toue, who's aim was the power to control the masses. He had multiple defects, and the order to destroy him was put out. Feeling pity for the newly born robot, one of the staff members of the project stole him away and destroyed any trace of their escape.
The man told Clear that he was his "grandfather". Being a blank slate, his grandpa raised him away from the rest of society. He had to keep the young robot safe, so the old man said, "Never show your face to humans. It's too different." With his grandpa's warning he started to wear a gas mask over his face. He never took it off. He was afraid that if he did, if he saw his reflection, that he'd see the face of a monster.
Growing up by the trash dumps with only one person for company left Clear with a very sheltered and limited mind. He's gullible and tends to take people at face value and always fails to catch sarcasm. He lacks common sense and often wanders the city on sunny days with a clear umbrella. He struggles with logic. It's this strangeness that leads to his being bullied by others.
Having been sheltered by his grandfather, Clear exhibits a childish wonder about the world and an eagerness to learn about humans. He's genuinely curious about everyone & everything. However, his grandpa raised him well so he's painfully polite and never forgets to ask "please".
He tends to have jumbled views on gender roles and public behavior. Most of what he learned about the world after his grandpa's death were from books... some of them fiction. So he often instigates awkward situations with things he think are normal. They normally aren't normal. Such as cooking breakfast. Naked. In a frilly apron. For another man.
Aoba, the person who became the center of Clear's earth after his grandfather died. He's hopelessly devoted to those he loves and forms quick attachments. Despite being an artificial being, Clear's emotions are heightened. Intense. Love for his master Aoba, fear that he'd lose those he loves, shame at the face hidden behind his mask. After Aoba coaxed him to remove the mask, Clear finally faced his fear and was relieved to find out that his face was just like his masters. It's still a safety blanket for him and he continues to wear it during initial introductions.
He's normally a pacifist but can be coaxed to violence when pushed too far, usually at the defense of his friends. His easygoing nature means he never instigates fights and his attacks are always provoked. He'd rather sit beneath the sun and sing than do anything remotely negative.
Whimsical, he still see's the world as a place full of wonder and was content to discover more of it with Aoba... but after he shut down he gratefully accepted his short life and the chance to share it with people he loved.
Until he got the chance to live again.
Abilities (after Powercap):
His songs can give people feel a strong urge to sing along. If he pushes himself he can give them urges to do what he wants, but he never uses his power that way for himself. If he sings backwards it'll give them headaches.
He still has an android body, so he's pretty resilient and can withstand a beating.
Items Brought In:
His gas mask.
