Edward Racket

Fox Demon/Wall Street Villain/Alien/All-Purpose Minion: "Blame the voices in my head, not me."

0 · 699 views · located in Purgatory.

a character in “Purgatory Remix”, as played by LovelyLisey

Description

Age: Kinda depends. Kit is five hundred and fourteen, Edward is sixty five, and Destroyer of Worlds is five million and two.

Backstage Pass: Seriously, just read the history.

Edward lives in the body of Kit, a petite fox demon. Kit is the younger brother of The Fox, so he is appropriately good-looking, although the descriptor "cute" suits him much better than "handsome." He has golden eyes and blonde hair that is a little long for a guy but would still be considered short for a girl. Edward has a thing for zoot suits and occasionally business casual, but this is subject to change if either Kit or Destroyer of Worlds take the reins. Kit likes to wear pretty kimonos, while Destroyer of Worlds likes to wear...nothing. This can be very awkward for Edward, but not for Kit, who is somewhat of an exhibitionist.

Personality

This can get complicated.

Edward Racket, the human soul, has control roughly 70% of the time. Edward is ambitious and greedy, but not actually entirely evil. He would probably be a pretty nice guy if he weren't just so darned greedy. He is constantly miserable, and he prefers to vent his existential angst through heavy doses of sarcasm.

Kit is quiet and sweet, but actually entirely evil. Kit is willing to stoop to even lower lows than Edward, although people would never guess from his cheerful and sunny demeanor. Principally, he knows how to nurse a grudge, and if you piss him off, he will stop at nothing until he ruins you. Kit can be quite smart, but his maliciousness sometimes leads him to do stupid things.

Destroyer of Worlds is probably evil, although Destroyer of Worlds does not think so. Destroyer of Worlds just likes to destroy stuff. That's why it was born. That's what it does. No hard feelings.

History

In exchange for monetary success on Wall Street, Edward Racket sold his soul to the devil. Meaning, The Fox. He just didn't expect The Fox to collect so early. To be fair, neither did The Fox.

Kit, the younger brother of The Fox, wanted his brother's status and power. The only obvious solution was to kill his brother, but killing The Fox turned out be quite tricky. Shockingly, his older brother did not take kindly to his brother's murder attempt, and in order to punish his brother, The Fox forced him to share his body with a cranky guy from Wall Street.

That was twenty years ago. Barely a day for Kit, but an eternity for Edward Racket, who was killed by The Fox at the young age of forty-five. Since arriving in Purgatory, he has been doing odd jobs for The Fox, who has now promised him an immortal body without a voice constantly yelling in his head. Edward is somewhat under the gun to please The Fox, because The Fox has made it clear that if he is unsatisfied, he can easily force his soul (and Kit's) out of Purgatory. Edward doesn't know where souls go after Purgatory, but he doesn't really want to find out.

Meanwhile, Destroyer of Worlds was going around destroying worlds 'n stuff. Then he accidentally went through a wormhole and crash-landed in Purgatory, whereupon his only course of action was to destroy Purgatory. This did not work out either, and after a fearsome battle against the temporarily allied Five Powers of Purgatory, Destroyer of Worlds lost and died. His soul even went on to the thing after Purgatory and everything. That was, like, two hundred years ago, before Edward's great-grandmother was even a twinkle in someone's eye.

Then, about ten years ago, Edward/Kit were investigating some alien technology left behind by The Men in Black. They pushed a red button, and all of a sudden, Destroyer of World's personality was imprinted upon their shared soul. This effectively created a third "soul" to share the already crowded body of Kit the fox.

Who led them to the alien technology? Probably The Fox.

He thought it would be funny.

Edward is usually the person in control of the body, but Kit will take over if Edward is in extreme distress. Bear in mind that distress for Edward is relative, and frequent. It's even rarer for the Destroyer of World personality to dominate, but it can sometimes happen in extreme distress.

In terms of abilities, Edward has the sharpened reflexes and mobility of Kit's body, although he is still not very good at controlling it. He fights with a gun. Kit is an all-around better fighter, and he fights with his claws, which he can elongate. Just don't compare him to Wolverine. He hates that. Destroyer of Worlds is completely useless as a fighting tactic, as Destroyer of Worlds originally had a body the size of the moon and he does not know how to fight in the tiny body of a fox demon. This is unfortunate, because Destroyer of Worlds only comes out when both Edward and Kit are sure that they are going to die. However, Destroyer of Worlds has been successful at confusing opponents so much that they just give up.

So begins...

((Look at me, mommy! I'm 2 people. Actually, [b]5[/i] people.)) Edward Racket entered the tavern expecting to see the following sight: a ravaged tavern, and the bloody corpses of either Florissa or Calliope or both. He was right on the first count, but dreadfully wrong on the second count. Edward stared in shock at Calliope, Florissa and some other weird guy having a pleasant chat. And neither Calliope nor Florissa had a mark on them.

Edward appraised the situation. Florissa, Calliope and that other guy were looking right at him. Edward did the only thing he could do - he turned around, opened the door, and ran like crazy for his life. [Calliope] Calliope calmly put down the guitar. She reached for her sword under the bar. Then, with a sudden burst of energy, she catapulted over the bar and began to give chase.

As Edward ran, chaos erupted in the streets - he knocked over several old men, upset an eel cart, and managed to go through a line of laundry and come away with underwear drooping down his shoulder. He was having a major problem, in that he was short and slow - if it was Kit, he would have been able to make better use of his demon physiology, but Edward was clueless. Luckily, Calliope was pretty slow too, but it wasn't her so much that he was worried about. Florissa had gained on him quickly, being much taller and faster. Plus, she had a ranged weapon. "Shit," he cursed to himself, pulling out his revolver from inside his fancy dinner jacket. You're screwed, observed Kit calmly. [b]Destroy[/i] observed Destroyer. Edward fired at Calliope, but the talented muse dodged, so Edward shot at Florissa in the hopes that he would get a lucky shot on her.

She wasn't a very good shot, so Edward shouldn't have been scared, but the way she was quickly gaining...he felt himself retreating more and more into the recesses of his mind, until finally Kit sighed and said, Fine, you're bloody useless, but I'll sort this out for you. As Kit took back his body, Edward - or rather, Kit - slowed to a stop, throwing away the gun. His claws began to elongate, and he turned to face the nearing Flo with a wide grin.

((Lol, Shanatos.)) Kit wasted no time, running at Florissa full speed. In the back of his mind, Edward began to scream like a little girl. Kit would have said things about how he quite liked her and was sad to kill her, but it had been too long since his last brawl - he didn't even feel like wasting time with taunting before getting to the good stuff. He held up his claws as if he was holding daggers, aiming for her neck.

Maybe Kit had been a little over-eager. The rifle hit him in the ribcage, and had he not turned a bit to deflect the impact, he would have easily had some broken ribs. At the very least, he had some bruises now. But the pain made him feel alive. He went crashing down into the ground, rolling before jumping back to his feet and charging again. Kit was nothing if not persistent. He was still going to kill his brother someday, and he was going to kill this girl, too.

((Ack, also wrote least when I meant last.)) Kit was reclaiming some of muscle memory and fight instincts, so he was in a better position to anticipate the next blow. He dodged the blow to the head, albeit barely, and retreated back a couple feet. He found himself breathing heavily, more winded than he should have been Edward treated his body like crap, like someone throwing trash around in an expensive car. "You're good," said Kit with an admiring grin. "I like you."

"Huh, you have that look about you. Definitely strong." Kit was feeling a little less axe crazy, and had gone back to his gentler persona. "I don't really have a choice about it. Once Ed's no longer afraid, he'll come back out and try to get you to pay Fox's fee." Kit shrugged. "I don't really care. But I would appreciate it if you didn't kill him, it will also kill me."

Kit dropped the gentle act for a minute, grinning somewhat maniacally again. "I like the way you think. I guess we'll call it a tie, this time?"

Kit got on stage, avoiding a glare from Calliope. This looked like fun, and he so rarely got to have fun. Who cares if she’d never let him win? All just because she took a few assassination attempts so personally. "Oh, hello everyone," he said, tapping briefly on the mike. "My name is Kit. I hope you like my poetry. It’s semi-autobiographical." He cleared his throat.

I once met a fair maiden with a stammer
So I hit her with a hammer

“Thank you!” finished Kit in a chirpy voice. He smiled and stepped off the stage.

"Excuse me, excuse me," said Kit, pushing past Joseph, who was still standing on stage. He took the microphone from Flo and cleared his throat again.

I once met a man named Bill
Who was made of horse swill
I got him to take a poison pill
And he became another kill

“Thank you ~~~” sung Kit loudly, holding the microphone out to Joseph while he took a deep bow.

“Wow, how do I follow that one? So long!” Kit took the microphone from Flo with a cheery smile. “Before I give my last poem, I just want to talk about my method. I typically find stuff that rhymes and sounds cool. All my poems are based off my life, so it’s very cathartic. I’m always joking that poems are better than therapy. Of course, I don’t need therapy.”

So this girl Jane
Who I thought was kind of lame
I did not love her
But
I killed her mother
And then
I fucked her


“Thank you, thank you.” Kit bowed again. “You’ve been a great audience! Hope you enjoyed the show.”
