Ein Leiermann

"There is no point fearing what is inevitable, and while I’d prefer not to die, this preference contains as much conviction as a person would possess when they claim they would prefer a red sock to blue sock. In short, Moz, I would not mind death. It is an inconvenience, though not something to fear."

-- Ein explaining his basic philosophy

SOMEWOT DETAILED PERSONALITY

• INTP! | anti-social personality disorder
• Ein is very smart, and very objective. He’s always consistently been the valedictorian at any school he attends by a long-shot, and is very very clear in his thinking. However, he lacks the ability to feel strong emotion, so his empathy is highly stunted. While he can feel pain, the sensation is fleeting; pleasure is even more so. Reacting to things is very difficult for him! 
• His default state of mind is usually indifference, the other is boredom. He’s shows signs of having ASPD though he has higher impulse control than most, and is incredibly passive…!! (I suppose he's got some schizoid in him? YES)
• The closest thing to joy Ein is able to experience is when he is satisfying his curiosity, or just pondering. Because he cannot feel strongly, he finds the emotions of others somewhat fascinating. He does horrible, manipulative things to people in order to observe their reactions. And, as for the thinking/pondering… He thinks a lot, and his thoughts tend to be of the philosophical and highly logic-based kind. He often mulls over and refines his interpretation on the meaning of being human, the nature of the city/memories/TRUTH/the UNIVERSE, and life itself. 
• He finds the music and sounds of the city distracting and mildly annoying, so usually he plays white noise (THIS ISN’T VERY FUN TO LISTEN TO YOU GAIS) on his music player in order to concentrate.
• He’s also a fabulous liar due to the whole morality lack of empathy/emotions thing. He can lie and lie very, very easily and will often shift around his past to see how others would react if they caught on. If someone were to CALL HIM OUT in the middle of a lie, he’d simply shrug and carry onto another subject or give a half-smile. YES.
• He’s rather not die, but this conviction is about as strong as a person preferring a red sock to a blue sock. Though he finds the prospect of an afterlife improbable, he’s not afraid of death at all. 
• Also, he doesn't tend to care much for rules/laws/time schedules/promises, and will usually only follow through on them if it is convenient, if he WILL get caught, or for manipulation's sake!
• UH I’D CALL HIM EVIL, BUT HIS MORALITY IS KIND OF… NOT… EXISTENT SO THAT’D BE INACCURATE. 

ABILITIES.

• UHM AS I MENTIONED, he can aikido pretty competently! He's usually very relaxed and focused if he is attacking/being attacked, so he never hesitates or pulls back. 
• His fighting ability tends to be more defensive than offensive, though he can probably bring you down if you don't know what you're doing LMAO.
• Oh yeah, and he's really, really, really smart due to the complete objectivity of his thought-processes!
• AND! In his main universe, Ein is a memory terrorist. That is, he somehow gets his hands on a bunch of horrific/guilt-driven memories, and begins inserting them into unsuspecting victims. 
• He chooses his victims completely at random. The memory insertion happens when his victims are completely isolated. He then knocks them out using his aikido, erases their memories of his face, and then does his manipulating thing! PRETTY MUCH. 
• Sometimes, he pretends to be their friends, sometimes he takes it EVEN... FARTHER... But, always, he watches them descend into insanity/depression, or ruin their own lives. If they kill themselves, he usually steals away their memories for his evergrowing stash. TERRORRIRIRIRISSTTT...
• He has a lot of technical skill with memories due to his status as a film major at the university. Usually, the artificial memories offered by EIDOS are marked with small burn marks (LIKE IN REGULAR FILM!) However, he figured out how to erase these marks... making the memories in his stash completely indistinguishable from regular memories. TERRRORRISTTT

EIN'S PAST

• He describes it here, but I'll reiterate with *~*~EMBELLISHMENT~*~*. 
• Ein is half-Japanese (on his mother’s side) and half-German (on his father’s side) 
• His father came from Germany to Japan (THIS TAKES PLACE IN JAPAN OPOS) at the request of his father and mother to work at EIDOS. He was little more than a pawn to the family, really— but, having no other real ambitions has always been relatively obedient to them. After a few weeks, he meets Ein’s incredibly beautiful mother at a bar. He didn’t know the language, and didn’t have any friends, so her company was very welcome.
  They fall in love.
  
  They married.
  
• All the while, Ein’s father moves upward in the company, while his mother remained at home and tended to the house (DADDY’S PARENTS BOUGHT DADDY THAT HOUSE, MOMMY MOVED IN). His visits home became less frequent, and his mother began to worry and grow depressive because she loved him SO SO much! Did I mention she has bipolar personality disorder! BECAUSE SHE DOES.
• Of course, her feelings turn to paranoia, so she tries harder to conceive a child to “save the marriage.” She had Ein. She named him Eita at first, but his father preferred Ein. So, he went by Ein.
• Things didn’t get better. Mommy would always try to get Daddy’s attention by being a good Mommy, and forcing Ein to pick up German and aikido but Daddy was still so so busy. It wasn’t good for Mommy that Ein has super blunted affect…
• One day, when he was around five, Ein’s mother told him that he had failed to bring his father back. Ein stared at her and asked what a child could’ve done. And then she placed a lit cigarette to his arm, until it burned through the flesh! THERE WAS LOTS OF BLOOD.
• And then she cried because she felt bad. And Ein just stared and then went off to tend to his wound. (IT HURT THO, ONCE AGAIN, HE LACKS THE ABILITY TO EXPRESS THIS)
• The next few years went by like this. Ein would just stay off in his little area and read, while his mommy went on massive moodswings sometimes taking really good care of him to impress her husband, and sometimes beating Ein, then crying over it. Her paranoia got progressively worse, and she would send out detectives to spy on her husband.
• Her husband eventually found out, and flipped out on her! (Being watched his whole life finally driving him crazy.) He now only comes home on weekends, sleeping on the couch, and all that!
• Fast forward a few years, and one night, his mom becomes hyperdepressive! She cracks and decides the next morning she would just kill the family, then herself (as that’s the only way out). She asks Ein if he is afraid of death. He answers no. It is settled.
• NEXT DAY, 11 year old Ein comes home late from school due to extra work. There, he finds out that his mother shot her husband, and apparently waited for him to come home… But, then she heard police sirens coming (THE NEIGHBORS HEARD), so she tried to shoot herself then burn down the whole house before getting the chance to kill Ein * >* She managed NOT to kill herself (GUN IN MOUTH YOU GUYS IT’S INEFFECTIVE) and was apprehended. She was taken to asylum!
•  She’s covered in burns it’s pretty epic and has lots of bandages all over her head now. Which is a shame because she was one of those highly attractive yanderes!
• Ein was offered to have his memories deleted— but, he declined the offer, reasoning that to be human is to own your experiences, every one of them! He was then adopted by his mother’s brother and his wife. 
• His mother's brother (his uncle) is the city's head plastic surgeon, As he would learn, his own mother wasn't naturally pretty-- rather, her brother experimented his technique on her when they were younger. His aunt (uncle's wife) was never very fond of Ein's mother, especially now that this murder is strongly associated with the family. She speaks of her poorly. Otherwise they're very nice people. His uncle felt bad for Ein, and thinking that the rumours would bug him, had him transfer to another school.
• Eventually, he was sent to the city’s leading university after graduating from high school as valedictorian! There, he is studying film/particularly the bio-engineering aspects.
• BUT IT’S… AWFULLY… BORING…. :)
• He took up memory terroristing somewhere between last year of highschool and the beginning of university.
• After awhile, kuku’s detective moz-kun tracks him down! But then Ein overpowers him and gay rapes him knocks him out! And then he inserts false memories into Moz, so Moz thinks that it was consensual and doesn’t want to turn Ein in! THIS CONTINUES ON WITH EIN MANIPULATING HIM INTO THINKING IT’S LOVE AND INSERTING MORE FALSE MEMORIES INTO MOZ AND MOZ DOESN’T REALIZE.
• When Ein gets bored, he will tell Moz what he has been doing so Moz loses his mind and Ein watches. AHHAHAHAHHAHAA IT’LL BE SO AWESOME. SO AWESOME.
• Further info/insight into his family. 
  

OTHER COOL SHIT

• To most people, he’s generally quiet, though polite if spoken to. He had and has very, very few connections to people outside of business/school if any at all. 
• HE IS VOICED BY TAKAHIRO SAKURAI… (LEAVE ME ALONE AAAAA) if you watch anohana, he’s the voice of thebrunette/yukiatsu (SECOND VID, FIRST SOURCE). he’s also the medicine seller from mononoke. I’ve yet to find a dub voice.
• HE IS AROUSED FROM SEX BECAUSE HE IS A PERSON yes. but there's no emotional attachment there, just bodily reactions! HE'S pretty asexual, and completely aromantic. But he uses it to manipulate and control people MOZ so he doesn't mind it at all. To him, it'd be something like:
  
  Shiba-san stopped as if he were expecting an answer. In place of one, he turned and shrugged, settling his bags by the bedside. Then, very slowly-- like the viscosity of frozen syrup--, he approached, moved his fingers into the curling darkness of Moz's scalp and pulled their faces close. 
  
  The action of a kiss holds no weight to Ein. He isn't overcome with a fizzling buzz; he does not feel the kind of light-headedness he has read in books, or heard tell from his classmates at the university. All he senses is the pressure on his lips, the warmth and wetness of saliva and teeth. He can taste the things they had placed in their mouths minutes prior-- food, cigarettes, alcohol. But, other than what it is, a kiss means nothing.
  
  As such and when he kisses, Ein kisses roughly pushing himself forward and the other back a little to keep the distance, and passionlessly. His hands move only to keep Shiba-san from touching him, or things from getting too sloppy. He always stops and pulls back after briefly counting himself to 20. And then, of course he stops and stares. (--written by me)
  
  
• He’d have no problems outright killing someone, but would find it terribly uninteresting and it’d be easier to get caught. So, he doesn’t kill… people… for that reason… *___*;;;
• He speaks in full, yet terse and grammatically correct sentences. His words tend to be neutral, and lacking in strong connotations. He also doesn't use contractions very often. He has many complex ideas, but is REALLY GOOD at breaking them down/explaining them simply!
• His vision is so bad laser eye surgery cannot correct his vision. He does not wear contacts because they are more trouble than they are worth! If you were to take his glasses, all he'd see are very very very very blurred blobs of colour.
• UHH. HIS NAME. Eita! It’s written 瑛 汰;  瑛 (crystal, sparkle of jewelry)  汰 (select, luxurious) COOL GAY NAME CAE. uhm if he’s going undercover, he’d prolly kanji it 影多;; 影 (shadow)  多(abundance). He also uses his Japanese last name if he feels the need to go undercover.
• He lives in an apartment that his aunt and uncle are helping him pay off. Said apartment is very spartan, and very clean, and very underdecorated.
• He's not at all picky in terms of food-tastes; however, he will not eat or drink something if it looks grossly unhealthy (like fastfood, or soda). He will also not consume anything that could affect his brain directly (like alcohol). He doesn't eat out often, and prefers to eat at home. Usually, he eats plain white rice, vegetables, natto, soybean, tofu, and white chicken. JAPANESE UPBRINGING. AND ALL.
• He reads textbooks, technical manuals, and the back of medicine bottles when he's not thinking, memory terroristing, or wandering around the city.
  
• He speaks German fluently, as his mother wished to impress his father with this ability!
• If he were to name his things-- in other words, that off chance he gets a pet or two-- he'd name them like one would name their files. For example his birds would be bird-1, bird-2, etc.
• WHEN HE GOES TO SLEEP, he sleeps in his boxers and a bigger shirt. yes. 
• WHEN HE WAS younger, he had shorter hair-- see right. After moving out, he allowed it to grow a little due to his lack of motivation to go to a hairdresser... but has always kept the bangs short by snipping at them himself for the sake of convenience. (NO HAIR IN FACE EVER)

RELATIONSHIPS

• Basically, Ein acts as something like the main antagonistic force of EIDOS. Sometimes he watches his victims from afar. Sometimes, he pretends to be their friends, sometimes he takes it EVEN... FARTHER...
  
• Like with Moz. Moz is a justice-seeking and idealistic detective bent on taking down EIN. He takes his job very seriously and is very tired much of the time due to his fierce dedication to said job. By episode 8, he manages to track down Ein and after engaging in an epic showdown in a parking lot....
  
  Loses.
  
  Ein considers killing Moz, but on a whim decides to gay rape him and insert memories into Moz so Moz thinks it was consensual and good and that he is in love with Ein (OH GOD...) 
  
  For now, Moz really thinks that he is in love with Ein. He WANTS to think that he can fix Ein/make him not a horrible person....! And, he really doesn't want to arrest Ein due to the manipulation. However, Ein continues to tinker with his memories memories without him knowing it. All the while, Ein constantly tests Moz's limits in regards to sex and loyalty, constantly mocking him and making him as insanely uncomfortable as possible and telling him how much his father would hate him if he found out about their relationship!
  
  Moz is guilt-filled and battling with himself because for one, he thought himself straight before Ein and for another HE KNOWS DEEP DOWN THAT EIN IS an obvious criminal and all! It is a doomed relationship because after Ein is bored, he will tell Moz that he's been messing with his memories. Then Moz will lose his mind. 
  
  
• OH BOY DON'T YOU WONDER WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE END. Uh, if you're curious you can highlight. I will be deleting this as soon as I start writing for EIDOS HEH HEH...
  SPOILUR ALERT:
  BASICALLY MOZ CHARACTER DEVELOPS A LITTLE MORE AND REALIZES EIN PRETTY MUCH NEEDS TO BE CAUGHT. AND MANAGES TO PULL THRU IN SPITE HAVING FALSE MEMORIES HE CANNOT ERASE/UNDO. SO HE FACES OFF WITH EIN. TO FINALLY ARREST HIM. AND DO HIS JOB.
  
  AND THEN THEY DO BATTLE WITH EIN TAUNTING MOZ AND GOING "look at all the people you could have saved had you acted sooner." and "you do not have the will to defeat me."
  
  BUT YEAH CHARACTER!DEVELOPED MOZ MANAGES TO GET THE UPPERHAND AND THE ARREST IS DONE!
  
  and then ein is sent to jail and is scheduled for a super publicized execution...
  
  and then moz visits every so often and hot make outs w/ tongue happen with moz topping this time and being an emotional wreck and going "WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME"/"HOW COULD YOU DO THIS."/"LOVE ME GDI I'VE DONE SO MUCH"
  
  but ein not reacting in any other way.
  
  and then the day of the execution moz meets ein one last time. ein looks at the time and says "so this is the end." to which moz asks him "would you have changed anything at all if you could?" BECAUSE LIKE EIN IS DYING AND MOZ REASONS THAT IF EIN CAN AT LEAST... REGRET SOMETHING OR JUST... REACT... THEN THERE WAS SOME HOPE SOMEWHERE IN THERE THAT EIN CAN... FEEL...
  
  but ein just answers no. and goes out with dignity. he closes his eyes, and moz tries to watch ein die, but cannot. he looks away, and this whole case ruins his life for forever inspite ein dying HAAA... 
  
  
  OH THE CITY TOO. LMAO. EVERYONE'S UNEASY ABOUT MANIPULATING THEIR MEMORIES 4E. BOSS.
  
• He finds Vinci fascinatingly angsty. But, he does not manipulate her memories. Simply, he watches her for she is already a sad person. When her episodes play, he is in the background but does not act.
• As horrific as his past is, he does not attribute any of his *~*~*EVIL~*~* tendencies to his family at all. He generally does NOT talk about them, but if you managed to get him on the subject, he'd describe them as one would describe what they had for breakfast this morning LMAO. 
  
  ...Even if they were loving and good people, Ein thinks that he would still be doing what he is doing.

CROSSOVERSCROSSOVERS. Me being nerdy.

• HIS BIRTHDAY IS JANUARY 11TH. 1/11. THREE ONES! his zodiac is capricorn, his rising sign is virgo, his moon sign is aquarius! HEH.
• DID YOU KNOW HE WAS A REUNICLUS GIJINKA BOY HOWDY. Okay, so all my pokemon gijinkas pretty much act as villain stalkers to my derpy clefairy gijinka Chaucer. Ein is the most competent of them all because he is a hyper smart scientist! He wishes to capture Chaucy and examine his alien insides.
  
   BUT CHAUCY TOTALLY OVERCOMES WITH THE POWER OF LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP…….. 
  
  BUT FANFICS HAPPEN ANYWAYS.
  
  okay. UH. His favourite move is thunderwave because it paralyzes people * >* His nature is *~*QUIET*~*~* so he sacrifices speed for special attack. 
  
  I made him a reuniclus gijinka, because reunicluses are apparently really smart, and Ein really seems like a psychic pokemon.  
• In high school, his best classes were honours chemistry and computer science. He was also student council secretary.
• In Harry Potter, he lacks ambition, so he is a RAVENCLAW rather than a slytherin! His wand is made of STONE, its core is made of ICE THAT DOESN'T MELT. he specializes in memory charms HEH HEH HEH
• In AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER verse, he'd be a traveling weapons master with Ty-lee's ability to mess up people's bending. YES.
• HE SEEMS LIKE A GOOD YOUKAI IN MONONOKE!FEUDAL JAPAN. ACTUALLY HE... or rather, she would be a jurogamo.
• IN TOURDION VERSE, Ein is a mailman because he is smart enough to be one. Because he is easily bored and it is insanely difficult for information to be spread/verified, Ein uses his intelligence and skill with penmanship to forge letters. He watches people fall into depression as false letters are passed to and fro! (Look at his pretty Tourdion self with Eiko-chan)
  
• Speaking of that Ein... Or rather EIKO, prettier is a idol of gakuen. She is on kendo team and is on the student council… she is more adversive to being touched than her male-counterpart (as it was her FATHER that beat her and eventually killed her mother and the bruises still hurt). Actually, she really doesn't like being touched at all. She is a bit more stylish as well due to being a part-time model for popular brandname kingkolea HI…. 
  
  She is rumoured to be a stuck up bitch! WHICH SHE IS EXCEPT WITHOUT THE STUCK UP. LMAO…
  
• Also, because I'm the best owner around, he's an INCUBATOR in madoka magica.
• IF HE WERE A CAT HE'D BE A SIAMESE. THIS IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION I KNOW.

Creator Insight:

• if you know anything about the kinds of characters i make, ein definitely really stands out AHHAHAHA. I VERY RARELY MAKE ANTAGONISTS THAT AREN’T WOMEN (i love chick villains a lot). ALSO COMPETENT. I RARELY MAKE COMPETENT VILLAINS. SO YEAH.
• Because overall I LOVEEEE making heroes. 
• But, I like Ein a lot (LIKE A LOT LIKE WOAH) because I’ve always wanted to make a good male antagonist! He’s also really fun to draw and experiment on art-wise. I really like drawing his hair and his overall look! I wish he looked more like an antagonist, though.
• When I write for Ein, I usually shift into my essay writing style. He isn’t one to mull on pretty metaphors, so yeah!
• Ein also exists for me to flex my upper-level education. BALLER.
• DID YOU KNOW HIS NAME WAS ORIGINALLY EINSTEIN NEWTON TESLA. LAFFS. he was originally created to join a gaia BC that some friends made. but then i got lazy to finish the app.
• I ALSO LIKE HIM BECAUSE HE'S MY PRETTIEST CHARA PROBS yeah he is.
• opsies another shallow bit of insight brought to you from me. cae. yes.

あなたは誰で
