Hello Earthlings~! Haley/Sasame-mun here with a brand new character! Aaaand it's another guy with wings. I was going to app a girl but, y'know, sometimes the muse just leads you elsewhere.

This is Joshua Christopher from Chrono Crusade (manga version, specifically), reincarnated as Joshua Christopher Simmons. In his previous life he was a kid with holy powers (including pretty angel wings) that got demon horns slapped onto his head and went completely bonkers from it. In his new life, he's the son of a pastor with some deep insecurities that spends too much time playing video games. He's pretty sane. ...For now.

There's actually quite a few opportunities for pre-game CR with this one if you'd like!

Joshua was homeschooled for a while, but just started going to public school again in 2012. If your character goes to Locke High School or works there, they might know him! At school he's usually pretty quiet, and hangs out with the geekier kids. (Additionally, he was also originally pulled out of public school when he was 9 after being suspended for a fist fight with some bullies--feel free to have had your character know about this.)

Joshua's father, Glen Simmons, is the pastor of a decently sized Generic Conservative Evangelical Christian Church (I'll figure out a name for it eventually IDK). If your character is the religious type of the Christian variety, feel free to assume they go to the church and know Joshua from there. In church he's a bit more stiff, but outgoing, than he is in school.

Joshua hangs out a lot online, usually going by the handle 'JC.' He also plays a lot of video games, including at least one MMO and probably a few shooters.

If you'd like more info about him, there's his info post and his application! I'll probably be introducing him OOCly pretty soon. Looking forward to playing him against you guys!

Why do I still know virtually nothing about Chrono Crusade - he does sound like the sort of character whose Echo-regaining process shall be a mix of fascinating and slightly painful, at any rate~

And also, on my end, I could see Anthony knowing him - though they're the same age and grade, seeing as my boy's bookish but not so much as pop-culture-savvy and has only recently been getting so-to-speak geekiness lessons from Bakura, probably moreso from church than school (his family's Catholic, should that make a difference)! Also I suppose partly dependent on how Joshua's respond to the fact that Anthony's making friends manifests as saying something that sounds all polite and intelligent punctuated with the sort of "Did I do good?" smile that gets accompanied by a disembodied sheep noise in cartoons.

Belated, but there's always Lyall for a connection, too, if you want him to be in his class this year :B
