Character
Name: Prompto Argentum
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Canon: Final Fantasy XV
Canon Point: End of Chapter 13
History: http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Prompto_Argentum
Personality:
One of the first things to be noticed about Prompto is that he comes across as cheerful, fun-loving and kind. Prompto strives to be the man in the group who keeps the optimism high and morale up no matter what they encounter. He enjoys making jokes with his friends, offering quips and encouraging laughter and friendly competition. When Ignis is blinded in the course of the attack on Altissia, Prompto steps up to offer his arm and guide him, even though there is doubt that Ignis will remain in Noctis’ retinue. He also has a soft spot for animals and demonstrates them with his favourite - chocobos! He coos over them without shame and enjoys every ride, treating them with as much respect as he would a person. He has shown this care toward all types of animals. In his youth he met one of Lady Lunafreya’s dogs, injured and lost, and nursed her back to health. It was this simple act of kindness that completely changed his life and set him on a crash course with prince Noctis.
Prompto is a technophile and an amateur photographer. He finds fascination in technology and has a knack for understanding machinery that is not native to Lucis. It’s for this reason that Prompto’s non-firearm weaponry consists of various chainsaws and blasters from Niflheim, that he would have never seen in Lucis, but knows how to operate instinctively. Photography, however, is one of his true loves. Always seen snapping pictures, prior to Chapter 13, he often asks to stop for picturesque moments, capturing every moment that he can to document their trip. He has been taking photographs since he was as young as eight years old, focusing on things like animals and plants, and he very likely would have turned it into a career had he not met Noctis, changing his fate.
Prompto suffers from crippling social anxiety, and a variety of fears and phobias that bleed into his personality. He demonstrates destructive thinking patterns and abandonment issues. When he first attempted to speak to Noctis, a stray comment (that he was “heavy”) sent Prompto on a seven year undertaking to change his appearance, demonstrating his insecurities. Talking to Noctis in the first place had been difficult for him, and it’s seven years before he can approach the prince again. He took Noctis’ offhand, insensitive comment to heart and he decided he was too heavy and not suitable to be the prince’s friend. So he changed himself, lost weight, took up running and he works very hard to meet this ideal he has in his head that he must reach so people will stay by his side.
He was even worse with strangers, and he often froze up and said nothing at all. He has evolved and gained confidence, but strangers still cause apprehension and stammering on his part. He has an anxiety induced stutter. In cutscenes where new characters are introduced, Prompto is often seen slinking behind Gladio, putting someone else between him and whoever it happens to be. He worries that if he stops being ‘Prompto Argentum, cheerful, optimistic, quirky friend’ that people wouldn’t want him anymore. He does not often express what he wants but behaves in a way so that he’s meeting everyone else’s needs, so he can be seen as useful and necessary in their group, even if he feels insecure and inferior.
When he’s forced to face Besithia, to deal with his origins, he turns to self harm, attempting to burn off the tattoo that was inked onto his skin when he was a baby and infused with magitek. He contemplates losing hope and giving up, and although he’s talked out of it, reminded his friends are still out there, waiting for him, it demonstrates destructive thinking patterns that could take the wrong path someday.
A good deal of major events have helped shape Prompto into who he is. Prompto likely developed his claustrophobia from his origins in the Niflheim lab, created in a tube as a clone of Verstael Besithia. The fact he was adopted to two parents who couldn’t have cared less about him, for they left him alone all the time, affected his abandonment issues, and the fact he’s really and truly lonely. He’s self-sufficient because he wasn’t cared for, and if he wasn’t, he wouldn’t have made it to the age he is. If it were not for his kindness, Lady Lunafreya would have never sent him a letter and given him the idea to befriend Noctis. Everything in his life pales to this, because that friendship completely changed everything. With Noctis, he gained confidence, friends, a place to belong, people that cared about him, and in exchange for this he gave him his loyalty, all of it. Prompto would do anything for Noctis, including joining the Crownsguard and escorting him to Altissia for his wedding. In this action, he dedicates his life to Noctis, vowing to protect him, and Lucis in accordance with Noct’s wishes, after Lucis falls.
An incident where Noctis pushes Prompto off the train, leaving him to Niff hands changes Prompto. He’s traumatized from the experience of learning his origins, flirts with suicidal ideation, and isn’t sure if anyone would accept him. When he hopes to regain enough confidence to go on, he’s captured again and tortured. He resolutely holds fast to his belief that Noct will come to him, and he is rewarded with the fact he does. He has as much faith in Noctis as Noctis does in him, their relationship is close and symbiotic. He makes his vow to ever be a Noctis’ side, before his king is taken from them, lost to the crystal for ten years. He has faith that Noctis will return someday, no matter how long it takes. Prompto, after this incident, is not nearly as cheerful, he’s angry initially and a little more withdrawn. There aren’t any photographs after that.
Prompto is mainly motivated by Noctis. His unwavering faith and belief in his king, and everything his king stands for. He’d do anything for him, and he does wish to forever be at his side, helping him see his vision for Lucis through to the end, as in the future, he does. He’s motivated by his friendship and his care, his desire to be accepted and because Noctis truly means everything to him. He is, after all, someone he’d give his life for if it came down to it, but he’d rather work with him instead. He promises Noctis, after being rescued from Ardyn’s grasp to be ‘ever at his side’ a vow he takes seriously, right until the day the sun rises again.
Most people see Prompto to be light-hearted and cheerful, but in reality that is his mask. He’s insecure, nervous, anxious and very lonely. He only wants to leave the best impression, but it’s uncertain if he manages that consistently. They see him for his loyalty, which he has in spades, so much so that when his origins come into question, they dismiss his concerns, declaring he is a citizen of Lucis, and that’s that. They see him as a charming, worthwhile member of his group, and everything that Prompto is insecure about is not something the others see. People have faith in his strength, and when Prompto doubts, Aranea is very unimpressed with him and reminds him that he has people waiting for him.
He tries very hard to please people, so Prompto does not attempt to engage in conflict. He does his best to be cheerful, and he doesn’t like fighting and arguing. When his friends are fighting, such as on the train, he attempts to mediate and smooth things over. However, in a dangerous situation, he’s calm and collected. His Crownsguard training helps with that. He shows off a fair amount of skill as their trip wears on to the point he has the mental fortitude to take down a whole base of MTs - before he learns what they are and how they are made. He often quips after a battle, making jokes and trying to rally the group down from the danger, but he’s an active participant in eliminating the threats. His entire reason for being in those dangerous positions is purely out of love and loyalty for his best friend Noctis and he will fight to the bitter end to make his dream come true.
