Characters / Elfen High 2

Students

• Badass Family: Most of Damien's family line is made up of monster hunters. It all started with John Seward, one of the protagonists of Dracula, which makes it even more badass.

Staff

James Callahan

• Butt-Monkey: His name is synonymous with doing something horrendously stupid.
• Combat Pragmatist: Despite including parkour and professional wrestling moves in his fighting style, is still not afraid to hit people in the balls when necessary, as well as bring weapons into fistfights or find ways to make his opponent back off.
• Dual Wielding: For most of the Arc 1 school attack, James dual wields a katana and a customized rapier.
• Fanservice: All of his clothes, save his Aviators for some reason, get burned off when his pyrokinesis activates.
• Jerk With A Heartof Gold: Apparently in Arc 1. Definitely not in Arc 2
• Katanas Are Just Better: Wields one during the Arc 1 school attack, and makes good use of it.
• Le Parkour: Is an amateur practitioner, and incorporates it into his fighting style.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Show-off, has an ego, pervert, quick to anger, Canadian, but still more than willing to put his life on the line instead of his fellow students, and even some teachers. Lost this between Arcs 1 and 2.
• Playing with Fire: Is a pyrokinetic, but until recently was unable to use it.
• Power-Up Letdown: His pyrokinesis. Activates right before Loki is going to kill him, puts him magically on par with Loki... But still leaves him as physically weak as a human, allowing Loki to break his arm with one hand. Then his powers get accidentally drained by Allen due to his physical contact with Loki, Allan's true target.
• Really Gets Around: Not as bad as some others, but still has that element.
• Red Eyes, Take Warning: His eyes turned red when his powers awakened.
• Royal Rapier: Wields a customized one during the Arc 1 school attack, and makes good use of it.
• Too Dumb to Live: So infamous for this it has gone meta, with "Jamesing" now being shorthand for doing something really, really stupid.
  • His jumping into a lightning bolt, however, is generally seen as the exact opposite, at least in the OOC.
• Took a Level in Badass
• Took a Level in Jerkass
• Weak, but Skilled: When unable to utilize his pyrokinesis, James relies on his agility, parkour training, and martial arts abilities to fight, and is quite skilled with it.
• Wrestler in All of Us: Incorporates some of the more practical moves, such as dropkicks, into his fighting style, although rarely utilizes them. He did, however, use a standing dropkick to help take out War-Bot during the first Gladiator Games, and later a snap suplex on Zacheriah in Atlantis.

Allan Ramius

• Retired Badass: Used to work for some sort of supernatural version of The Men in Black.
• Dangerous Forbidden Technique: Use of Time Accel inflicts a significant strain on Allan's heart, allowing him only to reach a triple acceleration. Anything more would likely kill him. Coupled with .
• Cool Old Guy
• Weak, but Skilled: Allan is a marksman, with a pinpoint aim
• The Unfettered: Well, yeah. Sometimes.
• Always Need What You Gave Up: Gave up a lot of his powers, rendering him Willfully Weak.
• Morton's Fork: Allan's Origin Ammo. Heavy caliber round capable of inflicting severe damage, especially to a magic user. When using magic at the point of impact, the mage will suffer from significant internal damage and permanently-severed Magic Circuits, reducing their magical prowess. The damage is proportional to the mage's power, so being weak might actually pay off.

Pierre Steinmann

• Dirty Coward: Pierre's defining trait, essentially.
• Face–Heel Turn: Joins the Fae out of cowardice. Dies fighting Lewis.
• Heterosexual Life-Partners: Him and Laz are best friends.
• Improvised Weapon User: At one point, he tears a rib out of a giant and uses it as a dagger.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Pierre and Laz aren't really heroes, but they care for each other.
• Neck Snap
• Neutral Evil: Technically, Pierre is on the side of the heros. Emphasis on "technically".
• Super-Toughness: Pierre's main power is basically the ability to soak up incredible amounts of damage. That's pretty much it.
• Super-Strength
• The Cynic
• Token Evil Teammate: Not really "evil". More of "asshole".
• Took a Level in Jerkass: A major one in Arc 2. Does this several times, actually.

Edward Alexander Crowley

• Aleister Crowley
• Badass in a Nice Suit
• Badass Teacher
• Evil Brit: Not evil. Just a jerkass.
• Jerkass
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: This is a stretch.
  • Lampshaded by Lewis after he saves Ivy. His heart is getting more obvious as things go on.
• The Hero: According to Nat.
• Wham Line: He isn't the real Crowley.

Lewis Jameson

• Cloud Cuckoolander: To a lesser extent than most, but yeah. He calls computers "witchboxes" and destroys them, for example.
• Deal with the Devil: Sells his second into servitude to Set to get his son back. See Pregnant Badass.
  • When he is hit by a soul-destroying bullet, he manages to find a loophole and scam Set.
• Death Seeker: To a mild extent. He has considerable fears of death at first, but eventually resolves not to worry about it. He willingly dies to save Rosalind and foil Set.
  • Fish out of Water: The source of most it.
• Father to His Men: After producing a family of his own, he mellows considerably and attempts to become this. Some resent it.
• Heroic Sacrifice: To save his daughter, he takes a soul-destroying bullet.
  • Only Sane Man: When paired with most of the rest of the cast.
• Four-Star Badass: As the Bear King, a role akin to the President of the United States. Prefers fighting to commanding, however, and leaves that to his subordinates.
• Mountain Man
• Nature Hero: Though, rather than be friendly to nature, it obeys him because of fear.
  • His favorite hobby is attacking bears.
• Really 700 Years Old: Was born in the 1790's and looks about 45 in 2018.
• Red Baron: The Red Menace, amongst several other names.
