IC Information
Canon: Arknights
Character: Executor Federico Giallo
Canon point:
The nature of gacha games is that the story is always progressing. The character roster is just so packed that this isn’t too troublesome with certain characters. Federico is featured in some events, though, and one quite heavily. The version of Federico I’m playing is specifically from a couple months after the Hortus de Escapismo event (so he’s got some character development under his belt. And a sick new alt unit. Seriously, look at his 5 star art vs. his 6 star art.)
I could have him after ZH event but this app already turned out freaking long and I’m not as familiar with that one SOOOO.
Canon intensity:
I’d say Arknights has like…a higher teen rating. The main themes deal a lot in the horrors of war, fantasy racism, classism, disease, murder, genocide…cults, religious trauma, trauma in general. Federico himself deals with many very intense missions, one of which it is reported he tore the aorta out of a dangerous beast with his bare hands, without batting an eye. We don’t see it but it is mentioned. In the Hortus event, he witnessed a suicide of someone right in front of him that he was unable to stop. Anyway. Dark themes, but the graphic, gorey details aren’t shown. There’s proper tact given for these things. Hope is also a running theme through it all.
World information:
Oh boy. Arknights lore is rich and expansive, it’s hard to cover all of it. As a whole, the world of Terra can be considered similar Earth, but it does have rather frequent natural disasters called catastrophes. These disasters are almost apocalyptic in scale, such as massive storms, blizzards, floods, and meteor showers. Because of their frequency and unpredictability (although there is developing technology and work to detect and predict them) many civilizations are nomadic, set up to be on the move using landships. So uh. Normal Boat might actually seem NORMAL to Federico.
The world of Arknights seems to be a more sci-fi fantasy setting, with fanciful races that have various animal traits, swords and magic (called Arts in this world) backed up with technology. Not as far as spaceships and such, but there are cars and lightbulbs in some cultures powered by Originium. There are also drones/robots?? Some cultures in Terra are definitely more advanced than others.
Originium is a rare but volatile resource, a black, crystal looking mineral that forms on its own. It’s known to have connections to calamities, either forming after they strike or cause calamities themselves. Originium is not radioactive but it is highly unstable in its raw form, and very dangerous as it can assimilate with living beings, causing a disease called Oripathy.
Oripathy is a widespread disease in the world of Terra, as all cultures use Originium in some way. Oripathy is a form of…magic rock cancer that’s highly contagious through blood or inhalation. There is heavy prejudice and fear around this particular illness, and something Rhodes Island is trying to help counteract, searching for ways to treat and even cure Oripathy.
Rhodes Island is the main faction the game follows, based in a landship, and they’re a sort of…pharmaceutical company that aims to care for the Infected. However due to the conflict surrounding them, they are also capable of military operations to fight for the rights of the Infected as well. Federico is contracted with Rhodes Island to help carry out rights related to Laterano operators there.
There are various divinities and cultures in the world of Terra. Federico is from Laterano (basically fantasy Italy), and operates under a divinity called "The Law" which seems to be. Some sort of super-computer built long ago?? Not too much is known about this. But laws and regulations and contracts are super important in Laterano, to the point of being a religion to them. They’re governed by a ruling Pope, even. Sankta also tend to love sweets. And explosions. Sankta (angel-like being Fedi is, main population of Laterano) seem to really like blowing up structures. For enrichment. Federico himself occasionally sets up landmines around the Doctor’s office and had to be. Redirected.
It’s not like the electric fence is exactly better, but…
Character biofacts:
Age: Around 25
Height: 5 feet 9 inches
Gender: Male
Species: Sankta
Health status: Healthy, fit, not infected with Oripathy.
About the character:
( Under the cut coz this got long... )
Abilities:
Every Sankta born in Laterano has an innate empathy link built into their halo, possibly due to their proximity to The Law. Federico’s link is a bit weaker than others, since he doesn’t live constantly in Laterano. It seems those who live away from their city for extended periods experience some atrophy to this link…not that it ever helped Federico all that much anyway, since his understanding of social cues and emotional information is…um. Lacking. He’s getting better though. But yeah, halo to halo emotional communication sure is a thing.
Fedi is well studied in various legal systems and languages, and functions as a sort of low level bureaucrat with Rhodes Island to execute functions related to Laterano rights. (IE. Walking talking law encyclopedia)
Federico, being an Executor, also has the ability to use his patron firearm against other Sankta without becoming Fallen. When an average Sankta uses their gun against another, they become fallen, even if this attack is by accident, like from a stray shot. Fallen Sankta’s halos darken and change shape in various ways, and some even gain Sarkaz qualities like horns,scales, or tails. Because of Federico holding a position as an Executor of Laterano law, he sometimes needs to use lethal force against other Sankta and is thus exempt from the fallen effect.
Also, bullets are rare in Arknights. Fedi is able to use his Arts as bullets, so the only resource there is his own energy. Magic bullets are probably less destructive than Originium bullets, too.
He’s an excellent shot, skilled in hand to hand combat and very fit and efficient in whatever his work entails, even if he can be a bit literal and go overboard on some objectives. He wields two shotguns, sometimes at once, although he doesn’t…need them. He’s been known to be given just a stick and being able to carry out his missions to precision.
Federico has also been known to be good with technology upkeep, stating that it’s easier to work with machines than people. Considering his robotic disposition this makes. Sense. He’d probably be interested in employment from the Ship.
Noteworthy items:
You know what, I’m still figuring him out, I’m leaving his weird drone cube thing out of this for now.
Combat ready clothing, which is apparently specially made for his new status as a Saint. It has some form of shock and piercing damage resistance, as well as some anti-riot capabilities. It’s also likely stain resistant.
He has two patron shotguns, a couple grenades??? And a small basic first aid kit. A little trinket on a keychain made of…fox fur? (A “lucky charm” from his ward, Vermeil). A bookmark with blue and white flowers pressed in it (a gift from Ezell and Cecelia). A dried, carefully preserved flower. It’s a little bit singed on some petals…
Also about eight Originium bullets.
Mixed gender room ok?: Yeah that’s fine!
Player content notes/squicks:
The parasite adjacent nature of The Growth is already sorted, so all good there, I’m…opted out of that factor for the time being. Sexual content is also just not something I’m super keen on engaging with, not that I expect it in game.
Anything else:
Oh yea Sankta can’t fly with their wings, they’re more decoration than anything. Probably wouldn’t be too pleasant to get them damaged tho! (Whump liker here, would love to explore wing or halo damage HAHA)
Hmmmm I love hurt/comfort. Also just adore the idea of tossing Federico at very different people, since he’s already on a journey to better…understand other people’s views and beliefs. Normal Boat is a great place for that, it seems. Also to get the stoic guy hurt and have chances to un-stoic him :))) Exciting!!
I think he’d also be interested in Employment from the ship? He can at least try and fix machinery and help ensure safety of the ship’s residents.

WHAT MEDIA THEY'RE FROM: Arknights! It is a free to play Chinese mobile game with gameplay centered on tactical RPG/tower defense mechanics. Its story is vast and rich in lore, and generally gets relayed in graphic novel format. Also yes it's a gacha game. The little characters you fight battles with are usually obtained through gacha. Federico is one such character: Executor the Ex Foedere.
NAMES AND ALIASES:
- Real name: Federico Giallo
- Operator name (codename): Executor (5 star version)
- Alt Operator name: Executor the Ex Foedere (6 star version, with more character development) (means "Executor from the covenant)
CHARACTER BIO FACTS:
- Gender: Male
- Species: Sankta, a humanoid with a halo and "wings". Reminiscent of angels in our world. Some theories of him being a cyborg of some sort...
- Height: 5 ft. 9 in.
GAME PROFILE: "Executor, an official professional executor of Laterano Notarial Hall, has the rights and interests of Laterano citizens from Point 1 to 13 and granted the title of "Saint" by His Holiness the Pope Yvangelista XI of Laterano. Laterano didn't exclude him from our contact and the partnership between Rhodes Island and the Notarial Hall is going smoothly. Executor, the operator, is still providing service to Rhodes Island according to the contract and perform tasks related to his civil rights of Laterano." Arknights Wiki
PLAYER
NAME: Bre
CONTACT: my tumblr, my AO3
ACTIVE TIMES/PACE: Random pace, CST, sleep schedule in shambles
BRACKETS/PROSE: Prose is preferred, but I can adapt to other styles if needed.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Parasites is the first that comes to mind. Specifically things moving under the skin that should not be (for example: the scarabs in The Mummy), but lingering/inescapable infections do approach squick territory. Gratuitous child or animal abuse/death are a no-go. I'm also not interested and sometimes actively repulsed by sexual content. Themes can be fine but if it gets graphic, that's very Not Fun territory here.
IN CHARACTER
PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Go for it! He will respond...to the best of his ability. Physical affection is still beyond him but he is learning. May be very stiff.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Sure! If you hinder his objective however he will fight back, and he is extremely well trained in many forms of combat.
RELATIONSHIPS: Mans is trying very hard to understand basic interpersonal connections. Romantic and sexual are very off the table for him right now, I feel. You sure can try though?? It's more of something he's never really considered.
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: Very focused thoughts, probably alot of anecdotes about Laterano law. Not very emotional, almost robotic in nature. There are more questions popping up in there, though...through the empathy link any emotions might be very muted and thoughtful.
MAGICAL INFORMATION: Sankta can communicate with an empathy link through their halos! Other that, nothing really magical here. Unless you count a gun. He can use Arts (Arknights magic) as bullets through the dual shotguns he carries.
And the weird cube thing that may be a drone or a piece of a god?? Following him around?? It's his weird dog. No he hasn't named it. The pope gave it to him, Fedirico doesn't know what it is either??
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Very healthy and fit. No signs of infection from Oripathy. He might be?? Partly mechanical?? We just don't know. Probably a fair amount of scars from battle. Has high marks in all combat and physical training. Social however...he's working on it.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Nothing in particular. He's trying very hard lately to take in new perspectives and ideas, so like...one way to find out, haha. I imagine anarchy and disorder would unsettle him I guess...
(Please mess with him <3)
OUT OF CHARACTER
BACKTAGGING: Yeah that's fine.
THREADHOPPING: Ask first, please!
FOURTHWALLING: I’m fine with it, just not sure how Fedi would interpret it, haha.
NOT INTERESTED IN: Romance or sexual content. If played very specifically, romance COULD be fine? Would have to be carefully worked out OOC, though.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
VISUAL: Executor the Ex Fodere. Recently became a saint and it's up to him to figure out why. Decked out in fancy robes of white and red over black clothing, short platinum white/blonde hair, steely blue/grey eyes. He has a black halo slightly above his head with several prongs protruding from it, and "wings" behind his back that look like...pieces of sharp black glass. He has many weapons on his person, including his patron firearm, which is a really big shotgun of sorts.
There's also a cube thing with a scythe that accompanies him. Some think it's a droid, while others...think it may be a piece of a god?? It's. We don't really know what it is.
AURAL: Speaks plainly and concisely. Tenor voice, almost always sounds like he's giving a mission debriefing. But lately there's been more inflection in his words, and he's been asking more questions...
OLFACTORY: Probably smells like gunpowder and whatever the area smells like, sometimes smelling like blood or reports perhaps.
DEMEANOUR: Very collected and stoic. Federico is built as a weapon in personality and physicality, and is very to the point in all his interactions. However as he's been journeying, he's been asking more questions about seemingly obvious things, giving him an almost...childlike quality trying to understand all the nuance in the world.
