Personality Summary: Hinedere type. Refers to characters who have cynical world views, are cold-hearted, and highly arrogant. However, deep down they have a soft side that may reveal itself after their love interest breaks through. Ficus more or less belongs to this type. Also, Ficus is very manipulative, so he regularly takes on behaviors that will benefit him, or just for fun (people = potential toys). He's faithful to those he cares about. He's a bit of a narcissist.

RELATIONSHIPS
Friends/Allies: Addams family, Valerian Dante
Enemies/Rivals: Conformists
Family: Fester (father), Margaux (mother), Parker (half-sister), Gomez (uncle), Morticia (aunt by marriage), Wednesday (1st cousin), Pugsley (1st cousin), direct descendants, other Addams
Romantic Interest: Valerian Dante (no middle), met when they were both 13 at the local cemetery. Valerian likes fashion, cemeteries, vampires, dogs and cats, the color burgundy, fire, painting, bdsm, leather, whips, theatre, reading, and coffee. He is of Italian decent, has dark brown hair, and grey eyes. His favorite class is Drama, there's no class he dislikes. His family runs a mortuary. No, he does not ever suffer a premature demise. They date for many years, with a couple on again off again times, before marrying (age 23). Becomes Valerian Dante Addams. Ficus finds his presence soothing, and sleeps best when together.
Pets: Grey blue-eyed domestic cat named Lily (rarely brought to Addams Family Mansion for safety), obtained as kitten when Ficus was 3. Lived 18 years, becomes Ficus's only taxidermied possession upon death. Subsequent pets are cremated.

ABILITIES
Magical: Can speak to the dead through seance. Electricity. Can literally make things colder. Durable (an important feature for surviving as an Addams).
Martial: Unspecified martial art, mazurka, favorite weapon: needles

PROGRESSION
Background: I'm taking inspiration strongly from The Addams Family (2019), but as this is my thing consider this all an alternate reality.
Internal Conflicts: Ficus has always struggled with self acceptance. He straddles two worlds, the more normal world that his mother comes from, and the Addams family's twisted world. Ficus finds himself to not completely fit in either. He's too weird for typical society, but in some ways too normal for an Addams. Frankly, I think he fits in pretty well... LIVING PUPPETS. Actual human ice sculptures! Poisons! The s**t he does with needles! However, this is about how he feels. Oh woe, he doesn't cut off the tops of flowers just cause, doesn't like taxidermy, he actually likes colors, GASP!
External Conflicts: It's the Addams family. Society.
Character Arc: I call it life.

ADDITIONAL NOTES
Ficus gardens to support his poison making and flower arranging hobbies. He's been making clothes since he was small, originally for his dolls, then also for people. Ficus does not look like his parents. He's genuinely attractive, absolutely beautiful, and will fully use that to his advantage. It's most effective on his sister, and strangers. Ficus is typically a restless sleeper, and prone to sleep walking. Problems mostly solved by Valerian. He was a cry baby when he was little, mostly replaced by a cold exterior by nine. Ficus loves and admires ice. He has strived to emulate ice to some extent. This equated to smiling less at some point, which I think is stupid since he loves to smile. Valerian broke this attempt at a bad habit.
Ficus's name comes from the first gift Fester gave his mother. Quote: "Where you want the dead ficus?" "Oh Fester, it's not dead. It's plastic." "What's the difference?" Ficus's doll's name Agrippa comes from the Greek philosopher regarded as the author of "The Five Tropes of Agrippa", which are purported to establish the necessity of suspending judgment. Ficus likes to read. (The cat) Lily's name was chosen because poison. Ficus likes poisonous flowers.
