•CONTACT METHOD: Plurk (fivepointpalm)
•THREAD-JACKING: Archer will unapologetically jack your threads, feel free to feed him hi sown medicine.
•FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE:Absolutely! Archer would be thrilled to realize he’s the star of a TV show.
•BACKTAGGING: Is the Pope Catholic?
•AVOIDED TOPICS: None at this time.
•PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: She/her
IC CHARACTERISTICS:
•CURRENT CANON POINT: Archer is taken from the end of the season 4 finale, “Sea Tunt 2,” right after he‘s drowned (and before he‘s resuscitated).
•PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Archer is tall, muscular, and handsome, with the kind of chiseled looks one usually sees on movie stars. (He is aware of his attractiveness.) He has a tendency to dress in extremely expensive designer clothes, wears only custom-made shoes from Italy, and always smells of bay rum, even if he hasn’t been drinking it. It seems to be his cologne.
•DEMEANOR: I‘d like to let his canon mate and closest friend describe him:
In short, Archer is extremely inconsiderate of the people around him, even if he likes them, and will blame them instead of himself when one of his plans goes wrong. It’s always someone else’s fault, never his.
•ABILITIES: A capable fighter, Archer is trained and licensed to kill in his world. He’s proficient in both armed and unarmed combat (he favors krav maga), and is an excellent marksman. He’s also a very highly trained spy, and is equal parts absolutely brilliant and utterly crap at this job. He appears to speak Russian, Spanish, and Portuguese in addition to English, and is fairly resilient to injury, always jumping back to health reasonably quickly.
•MEDICAL INFORMATION: Due to years of high-functioning alcoholism, Archer constantly drinks and may not survive detoxification or an attempt to go sober. His liver also metabolizes drugs at a much higher rate than the average human. Archer also has scars and injuries from previous adventures; he has been shot something like fourteen times and has rapidly worsening tinnitus, which has gotten so bad he has to sleep with the fan on.
•CABIN INFORMATION: Archer’s cabin is a condensed facsimile of his bedroom. It’s decently large for an inmate’s cabin, dominated by a luxurious king-sized bed. There’s a large wardrobe, as well as an awkwardly-squished-in wet bar (upon arrival empty, except for mixers and garnishes), as well as a weapons cabinet (also empty, though to his chagrin there is ammunition in there). It’s got a large window with a balcony outside, though the door to it is conveniently missing.
•OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Discussion of Oedipus complexes, child abuse/neglect, wooden spoons (HUGE emotional trigger, never hit him with one).
IC PERMISSIONS:
•MENTAL: Yes.
•MIMICRY: Please do.
•VIOLENCE: ABSOLUTELY. Archer has few holds barred when it comes to violence, though.
•MAGIC: Why not?
•DEBATE: Yes, although the likelihood of anyone changing Archer‘s mind on a given subject is close to 0%.
•OTHER / NOTES: Don't take away his alcohol or cut off access to it. Just don't. No matter what you might think, it won't do anything to make him a better person and will just cause him physical pain and damage. He is canonically worried that if he stops drinking, he'll die.
