Bio
Archie was always far bigger and tougher than everyone else his age, a fact that he's always been grateful for and has abused to it's greatest extent. Born in the poorest of the British outskirts never knowing his father and being "raised" by a mother who made a living doing.....things that would get her sliced up by Jack The Ripper if it was a couple centuries ago. To get away from the noise and potential mental scarring of the daily and nightly "activities" that made up his mother's financial contributions, Archie would spend the majority of his childhood away from home in the various alleys and slums around him. Eventually, he stumbled upon and became enamored with the illegal bare-knuckle boxing circuit, seeing it as potentially both a way to make money and as a way to overcome his frankly immensely embarrassing status as a son of a whore.
Though it would be a long time until he could ever do something like that. Until then, he would take it upon himself to continue the great British pastime of insensitively barging themselves into foreign cultures, ergo: Archie would go to the local Gypsies and insult them and their families until he managed to get one to "challenge" him to a "bare-knuckle boxing match" aka get the shit beat out of him. Again. And Again. And Again. And Again.
It wasn't until Archie's early teens when his freakish Shonen-protag tier body was developed enough to even try to fight back against the people he angered so much, and by then he had developed more than a little bit of an infamous reputation for being as tough as nails and more stubborn than a drugged up mule. As a "just" reward for his nigh suicidal behavior, Archibald would finally get his wish of participating in semi-professional illegal bare-knuckle boxing. With every fight, win or loss making Archie happier, fulfilled, very slightly richer, and yet more (in)famous. All in all, it was a tough, brutal, yet incredibly rewarding life in his eyes.
Though it was not to last, and it would all come crashing down in epic style. Because for some God-forsaken reason, a incredibly rich Japanese businessman fell hard in love with his mother of all people, with her also falling for the man. His now new stepfather also took to spoiling his now stepson rotten.
Before he could even properly process it, Archie went from getting brutally beat up in barely paved streets by half-naked hairy Gypsies twice or even three times his age to living in luxury, learning Japanese and general education from professional tutors, enrolling in fancy Japanese high school (I wonder where), and being given cutting-edge entertainment technology to distract him because his mother and new father acted like giggling newlyweds every day. And every night. And because of fucking course, one of the few new luxuries he's not been afforded is soundproof walls. At least Archie discovered he was real good with computers. Who knew?
In the couple years since his life got turned upside down, inside and out, and possibly temporally shifted into a different reality, Archie has somehow managed to learn decent enough conversational Japanese. Yay him. But asides from the language and the new tech, Archie is just....really, really confused. He looks (and admittedly sometimes acts) like an ugly and foreign brute, sticking out like the sorest thumb anyone's ever seen. He's trying his best to get some sense of normalcy in his life.... though his sense of normalcy is being beat up by Gypsies.
Oh yeah there's also all that supernatural stuff that he has no clue about. Ganbatte Archie-san!
Idolon: The Grand Ogre
Though he hasn't quite gotten himself into enough supernatural shenanigans to discover it, slumbering within his soul is a monster of incredible and mythical might and stubborness. A creature who's teeth jutt out in all directions like fangs, who's inpenetrable and scarred hide has endless layers of muscle ready to be raised against whomever dares stand in his path. All in all, it's basically just a bigger version of a Archie innit?
