[Background]
[Personality]
When you first meet him in the game, it's easy for Teddie to come off as really annoying. He's both demanding, and a bit judgmental. He makes assumptions about the party's guilt one minute, and insists that it's their responsibility to solve the case the next. He even threatens not to let Souji and Yosuke leave the TV world if they don't agree to help him. Although that was almost certainly a bluff. This little bear also loves to be the center of attention, constantly flirting with the girls and telling bad jokes. (usually bear related puns.)
On top of that, he's also a bit vain about his appearance, often mentioning his beautiful fur, and becoming extremely upset when it gets messed up while fighting Rise's shadow. It's worth noting that after he gains a human body, his vanity and flirting get worse. Much worse. He takes forever to choose his first human outfit, and the one he finally chooses is very fashionable. And expensive. And when they take him to his first festival, he wastes no time trying to set himself up on a date with all the girls. At the same time.
Of course, a large part of his lack of tact and social propriety stems from the fact that he is genuinely new to human customs. He is absolutely fascinated by all aspects of the human world. Although he knows very little about humans, he approaches their every custom with curiosity and enthusiasm. He eagerly questions his friends when something comes up that he doesn't understand, like strip clubs, and 'scoring a hot stud.' They often ignore him, but that's okay, this is one persistent bear. He also doesn't understand why something like 'can I come stay at your place?' isn't an acceptable question to ask a contestant in a beauty pageant. And he has no problem declaring that he's going to sleep in the girls' room when they go to the hot springs. Being from inside the TV world, Teddie is also largely unfamiliar with human technology. In the beginning of the game, he doesn't even understand what filming is, and Yosuke has to teach him how to use a cell phone. He's a quick study though, and little by little he's beginning to understand.
Despite being kind of a handful, Teddie is actually a very brave and loyal bear. He tends to get very attached to people who are nice to him, especially Souji, who he refers to as 'Sensei.' Teddie desperately wants to useful to his friends. Early on, he helps by locating the missing people inside the TV and providing advice about fighting different types of shadows. And constant moral support never hurts, either. Even though he's afraid, he nearly sacrifices his life to save his friends from Rise's shadow. And, once he has his own persona, he very bravely steps onto the front lines and fights alongside everyone else.
Even though he maintains a cheerful, optimistic demeanor most of the time, Teddie is actually quite emotionally fragile. While his faith in his friends is absolute, It really doesn't take much for him to doubt himself. When his senses become less acute and he begins to have trouble finding the kidnap victims, he becomes depressed, calling himself a 'shabby bear' and worrying that soon they won't need him at all. When he believes that Nanako has died, he blames himself for failing to protect her. He fears that, deep inside, he really is no different from other shadows. That he doesn't belong in the human world. In the end, with Souji's help, he learns to accept what he is and move past it. But there will always be some small doubts lingering.
[Specialties/Abilities]
Being a shadow, Teddie can sense the presence of other shadows and even gauge their strength. He can also use his senses to find people if he has a trail to follow, but Rise far outclasses him here.
And of course, being born in the TV world, Teddie can travel freely between there and the human world. He can also create exits in the TV world to help people return.
Teddie is a decent physical fighter, using claws as his preferred weapon. He's able to use a persona too.
He also has a Persona: http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Kamui
[Affection]
Very affectionate with girls, and loves to recieve any kind of affection/attention from them. Flirts constantly, but is actually kind of innocent, so he probably would have no idea how to follow up if a girl actually was interested.
With guys he's friendly but entirely more hands-off. He won't flirt with guys and will respond poorly to them flirting with him. Guys are also not permitted to pet his luxurious fur, that is a priveledge for the ladies only. Unless you're Sensei. Then he'll be entirely more cooperative.
[Fighting]
Teddie isn't terrible in a fight, but is primarily a healer/spellcaster type.At any rate, he isn't likely to start any fights unless there's a girl to protect. That said, injuring him/ killing him is fine as long as I get a heads up about it first.
[Other Permissions]
As far as anything else, I'm pretty open to whatever. Read his mind/manipulate his emotions/fourth wall the crap out of him/ it's all good.
If you're not sure, just shoot me a pm about it.
