Campanella  
'Campanella,' said Giovanni, sighing deeply, 'we're alone again. Let's stay together till the ends of the earth, okay? If I could be like that scorpion and do something for the benefit of all people, I wouldn't care if my body burnt up a hundred times over.'

stats



Name: Campanella (haven't decided if this is his real name yet)
Age: ~13
Height: 155cm (minus hat (which adds about another 10cm to his height...))

Inspired by Night on the Galactic Railroad!
Campanella's a digital ghost, comprised of the data he left behind in the magical girl/boy system. He gave up his life to save someone (details still subject to debate), so he's no longer alive in the real world - a copy of the original Campanella's consciousness.

He's unsure about whether it was a good idea to give his life up (primarily because it destroyed his future), but he's not hung up on it. It still saddens him to see the family and friends he left behind so he now doesn't go near where he used to live, though. Rather than mope about it, he figured it would be a good idea to use whatever uncertain remaining lifespan of his to do good for the living. He's quite social, possibly to make up for the loneliness of not having his family/friends around (stays away from them because they believe he's totally dead, and don't want to hurt them any more).

He's otherwise very cheery though! Highly energetic, somewhat noisy, will drag you around to play if you let him.

A bit on magical girls/boys in this world: they're essentially a guild of bug hunters that play with the magical girl/boy theme for the fun of it. It's just an avatar, sort of, except that they have an attached system that stores some extra player data (familiars, transformation sequences etc.).

story

His story occurs about 10 years before the main WE events. Many spoilers are involved.

@Giovanni:
That one kid who always sat alone. Not the closest of his friends, but still someone he made a special effort to talk to in school. If it's the least he can do, maybe he could help Giovanni open up to other people better?
