Bottom Line: Prompto one of those people who is supremely annoying but also relatable, so he's somehow both easy to hate and easy to agree with.

History: A wiki article!

About: Personality-wise, Prompto is a very animated, emotional, 'lovable dork' kind of person. He’s friendly and has a joke for just about every situation, with varying degrees of corniness, and strives to be the one person everyone can look to for a positive attitude and optimistic outlook--at least when he's not complaining about having to hike somewhere or how many bug bites he's gotten. He gets excited and distracted very easily, and if left to his own devices, will absolutely abandon a current task to check out an interesting thing he just noticed. Being still and quiet is not one of his strong suits, and it doesn't take long for him to try to fill a silence with whatever may come to mind or start fidgeting or pacing if told to wait.

Prompto is also, in reality, a very shy and insecure person. In his immediate friend circle, he's the one with the least amount of combat training, and the lowest as far as social status goes. He trips over his own feet frequently and his words just as much. Coupled with the fact that he's not a native Lucian but born in an enemy country and supposed to have grown up to fight them, he's absolutely sure they could dump him as a friend at any second. He eventually confesses these worries, but despite being reassured that his actions mean more than anything else the fear remains in the back of his mind.

It's not a recent fear, though. As a kid, he was overweight and withdrawn, having no real friends and basically absent parents. Said parents, while absent, were open about Prompto being adopted, so he knew he was different from other kinds in at least one aspect. The mysterious barcode printed on his right wrist made him even more different and led him to keep to himself, afraid that someone would recognize it or start asking questions. Even as an adult, he keeps it covered, especially after discovering what exactly it's for.

It takes him until nearly high school to eventually summon up the courage to approach prince Noctis, after receiving a letter requesting that he try to become friends with the other boy, only to--in his mind--completely screw up. Not only does he trip and fall on his face, but Noctis comments that he's heavy when trying to help him up. This spurs Prompto to better himself physically and mentally, pushing himself to lose weight and not attempting to interact with Noctis again until years later, when he greets him like they've been friends their whole lives.

Despite the 'lovable' aspect of his personality he tries to play up to sometime exaggerated lengths, he's not above expressing his negative opinions. Monsters are scary and he hates fighting them, he'd like everyone to know that he's very afraid of heights and tight spaces, and why does everyone hide their treasure in the most out-of-the-way spots? Also, candid photos are the best kind and absolutely no one is immune to them.

Ability-wise, he's basically a normal human being. He has no magic abilities or superhuman anything, but he does have excellent hand-eye coordination despite his general clumsiness, and an affinity for machinery.

However, he's not entirely a normal human in the sense that he was created rather than born, a disposable clone originally made to be part of a robotic military. This doesn't grant him any explicit special abilities, though it's possible he was augmented with tech and possibly firearm know-how in some way. Explicitly, though, he does have the barcode on his wrist and many anxiety issues.

Regains: 1. Cactuar Figurines - Set of five cactuar statuettes, each one a different color.
2. LOKTON_LX-X1R - A well-used digital camera, though it seems to be missing its memory card.
3. Ebony - Premium beans are slowly brewed for 3 days to create a naturally aromatic and smooth coffee that is uncommon in a can.
4. Arcade gun - It’s a gun-shaped game controller, but where’s the rest of the game?
5. Cellphone - A relatively new smartphone with quite a few scratches and dings on the case.
6. Moogle plush - Handmade plush that looks like a Moogle if you know what that is, and a strange koala if you don’t.

Motives: Prompto has killed on purpose before, but only out of self-defense and in one case, panic. That said, self-defense would be the most likely reason he'd have to kill anyone, but he could be convinced or pushed to kill someone he thought was threatening someone else's life.

Sample: A test drive toplevel here and also a thread

Plot Involvement: Yes

Case Involvement: I'd prefer victim or accidental culprit (i.e. didn't intend to kill anyone, killed in self-defense etc.)

Other: I don’t think so.
