seeking: open to all. assumed cr may be for the best; getting him to speak will be less like pulling teeth that way, though i'm always down to hash out details or even playing out first meetings if that's something of interest.
found family, enemies to friends, etc. are a few tropes i'd love to explore with him. he never had a healthy human connection and rarely finds the time and desire to bond with another, so it'd be interesting to watch him struggle and have him experience the weird positive emotions of not minding a person's existence. bonus if he's gradually less hostile towards someone of wealth.
canon divergent-wise, i've been recently intrigued by the thought of norton running into future gamemates as a miner, right before a certain incident transpires, just to encounter them again at the manor after receiving his own invitation, scars and all.
other than that, i'm cool with whatever, be it plotting other things out or just playing it by ear.
offering: i offer something of a blurb, lmfao.
norton's main objective in life is to escape poverty, harboring an immense anger over his circumstances, though he refuses favors and prefers earning it through hard work. unless the person is putting money in his pocket, he cares very little about upholding an amiable farce, so he comes off unceremonious, inconsiderate, and wholly unkind whenever he's off the clock (unless he wants something out of the person, then he'll play nice before ghosting them for good). he's incredibly closed-off and prefers solitude over human company regardless of his repressed loneliness.
on the other hand, norton isn't the type to half-ass anything. he's self-sufficient, enough so to have survived on his own since his youth. his curiosity is largely driven by his current profession and having to endure through his day-to-day, but there's a willingness to accept new opportunities to better his chances at life, leaving him open to learning and improving as he goes. while he's not the best conversationalist, he's a little... goofy and kind of a brat if the character gets him to open up a bit (he might even request for some free food even though the establishment isn't the right place for it, lmfao).
norton's personality and backstory poses a challenge... but if he sounds interesting to you, feel free to hit me up!
links: i'm more than happy to hit up toplevels as i prefer not to post them myself. light-hearted texting threads (that transitions to something more introspective) are always a good time just to see how our characters vibe, though i'm perfectly fine with poking at other memes, too.
