Application for prismatica
Please be warned: That there is mention of torture and sexual abuse in Lobco's backstory. I don't go into detail, but I wanted to forewarn anyone reading this application.

NAME: Lobco
CANON: Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea / Funamusea
CANON POINT: Post True End, post Unlucky Shrimp System
AGE: : Coded Physically+Mentally: Early Twenties, Biological: 100-200 years.
BACKGROUND: Lobco is the daughter of a giant lobster named Doloz, and the shrimp-person, Cherryblod. They are all sea creatures and current residents of the Great Kingdom ruled by Princess Uomi. It is a peaceful sea, and had been for all of Lobco's life but it hadn't always been that way. Long ago it was ruled by the Sea God and all was tranquil. He had two daughters, Princess Uomi and Princess Mikotsu. Unfortunately the tranquility was broken when he one day disappeared, his last act being to choose Uomi as his heir.
Feeling slighted, Princess Mikotsu gathered up followers and the kingdom was divided between those who supported Uomi, and those who supported Mikotsu. War waged for a very long time, nearly ripping the kingdom apart until the Great Sorcerer Meikai--Wadanohara's father-- stepped in and used a spell to seal Mikotsu and her followers into the Red Sea. The Red Sea, also known as the Sea of Death, is a sea that exists parallel to the regular one (called the Blue Sea). It is a place of pain and corruption where the worst and basest instincts of a person are brought out, and where nothing can ever truly die. The two sisters were connected in such a way that both share the same sleep cycle--when one was awake, so was the other. When one was asleep, so was the other. Thus, to prevent her from ever escaping, Uomi put herself in a deep sleep as well.
Many, many years later Lobco was born. Doloz and Cherryblod were the parents whose love did not diminish in the slightest after decades (possibly centuries) together. They love their daughter very much which made for some rather sheltered upbringing, and as most of her time was constantly spent with them Lobco grew up to be someone who can often be shy around others. Lobco was never bothered by this, for she holds just as much love for her parents.
From her youth she always had a fascination with Witches, as depicted by all the many books on Witches in her room. She was always a shy and timid girl but at some point in her early teenhood she decided to do something that very, very few sea creatures ever do: she left it. During her travels she came upon an incredibly powerful Witch named Chlomaki who took her on as her Familiar. Since then she is often away from home, traveling with Chlomaki and getting into misadventures with her. Around this time there is one other significant event that happens in Lobco's life that will be addressed further at the end of the biography since there is unfortunately a lot of information missing in canon.
Several years after this is the start of the game. Chlomaki and Lobco take Wadanohara to the Witch world for the first time so that she may meet the Great Witch there. Upon returning, the Great Witch notices that Wadanohara left behind her ocarina which carries sentimental value. She sends Chlomaki and Lobco after her to return it, with a suggestion to Chlomaki that she visits the sea in order to open her mind. Thus the two sometimes join up with Wadanohara and her crew when they are underwater.
For much of the game Lobco, via Chlomaki seems to play an observational role. Chlomaki seems to understand a good deal of what is going on and what Wadanohara (the protagonist) is going through. There is only one moment when the two intervene to help Wada and her Familiars, and in this moment Lobco shows unexpected strength when she saves the group from a horde of killer, sentient, and very pissed off rabbits from a kingdom that is invading.
From there on out, she once more continued to simply oversee things on the orders of Chlomaki, but things unfortunately spiral out of control. The truth behind the seemingly random invasion of the Tosatsu Kingdom, was that traitor within the Sea Kingdom has been killing civilians and soldiers of theirs and sending threatening letters under the name of Princess Uomi. This traitor was Sal, a shark in her service. When Tosatsu's invasion came to Uomi's steps she was finally forced to awaken, and thus so was Mikotsu, and the door to the Red Sea opened.
The corruption spread throughout the sea, and through circumstances unknown to Lobco, Wadanohara was also corrupted and converted to be a follower of the Red Sea. Unable to stand seeing her home the way it was, Lobco departed from Chlomaki, desperate to do anything that she could to save her loved ones and precious home.
There is one other thing that needs to be said about Lobco that takes previous to all this. An important thing to know about Funamusea and their works is that all their games, comics, and flash series are contained within the same universe, and spread across different worlds. A lot of the information we get about various characters and their relationships with each other comes from art, mini comics, and questions that they answer. When it comes to Lobco, Funamusea has describe her as a "poor shrimp [who] lives a pitiful life". She had been depicted with a certain character by the name of Roc Hijoushiki enough times that despite still lacking a fair amount of context, I still can't completely ignore their relationship, especially considering how much of an impact it has on her personality.
Roc Hijoushiki is a demon at whose hands Lobco has suffered a lot. She's been through kidnapping, blackmail, torture, degradation, sexual assault and more over a long period of time, and it is implied it is something that still continues and that no one else knows about. Lobco's lack of self esteem and depression was not directly caused by these experiences, but severely worsened by them and instilled in her a great sense of distrust towards most people and effects a lot of the way in which she carries herself around those that she cares for.
PERSONALITY: To avoid some possible confusion, I refer to Lobco as a shrimp/lobster/crustacean because she is technically a hybrid of the two. She has weird parentage.
Lobco is a very polite and prim person. She’s always mindful of her manners, always tries to think about others and the position they are in, and tries her best to be kind and patient with everyone. Considering some of the things she has undergone, one would think that Lobco would be a bitter and resentful person, but she is incredibly empathetic and compassionate person. She’s quite a stickler for keeping things clean and having everything in its proper order, to a point that it could be considered a tick. She enjoys cleaning and general housework, a trait that she inherited from her mother and learning about everything under the sun. When we are first introduced to her she is in her crustacean form, riding in Chlomaki’s (her witch's) hat as she returns Wadanohara’s ocarina.
Lobco is essentially the straight man to Chlomaki’s wise guy. Chlomaki is a powerful witch, but Lobco is the one who has to remind her of her duties, of why she set out to do certain things, was the one who kept her on track and tried to remind her to be serious in certain situations. Lobco taught her a lot about the sea but unfortunately her witch tended to either completely ignore her until she heard it from someone else, or at the very least pretended to in hopes of getting a rise out of her.
Lobco puts up with a lot from her Witch who often hits her, teases her, and seems to barter with her life when using spells that can drain a familiar. It shows either incredible patience, perseverance, a strong sense of duty or how desperate she is to be important to people outside of her parents. Perhaps a combination of all four, as it is a bit of a joke that other citizens of the Sea Kingdom tend to forget/ignore her, and even Lobco refers to herself as ‘just some shrimp’.
The truth is Lobco suffers from depression, anxiety, ptsd and might even have a bit of Stockholm syndrome going on. For every word that she says, there are at least twenty more that she keeps to herself, and she expresses several times a desire to ‘just die’. Outside of the game there have been several official comics/pics that show her as being a bit of a doormat, and being prone to misfortune and freaking out. She is also a victim of extreme abuse. While her witch can be pretty bad, it doesn't measure up even a bit to what she receives from a demon named Roc Hijohshiki, something she suffers alone and has exacerbated the aforementioned disorders, and instilled the Stockholm syndrome.
When it comes to other people, she is someone who is strong, knows when to act, and doesn’t let that fear get in her way. She left the kingdom to explore. It is said that a lot of misfortune tends to befall her whenever she leaves the sea (and considering what she encounters and other comments made by the creator, it's possible that Lobco is literally cursed with bad luck) and this tends to get under Lobco’s skin, strengthening her pessimism but even then she never stopped traveling.
In her profile she is said to love ‘home’ and her hobby is 'photography’. Despite her traveling there is nothing she loves more than her home and family. The lobster simply has a case of wanderlust and a desire to forge herself into a better person–which she doesn’t think she’d be able to do remaining where she was. She’s got an artistic side that doesn’t often come up.
POWERS/ABILITIES: Lobco's most notable ability is the power to transform. She is in actuality a crustacean with the ability to take on a humanoid shape, rather than the reverse. Thus, Lobco can change between said humanoid form and her shrimp form or anything in between (taking on some traits and not others). In her shrimp form she is but an inch long.
In her crustacean form she is still able to speak as she normally does. Whenever she transform, she retains whatever she has on her person, such as her clothing, when she returns to her humanoid form.
In both forms she can breath underwater, and if she has a contract with someone, she can grant them the ability to breath underwater as well if they are in her vicinity.
She is capable of regenerating her extremities and overall is built tougher than a human, but it would take months for her to regrow them and she can still bleed out or die from infection if not given proper treatment. Her antennas allow her to sense and derive all sorts of information from the air.
Drinking her witch's blood enables her to have a burst of extreme speed and power, but it is quickly vanished and if abused can kill Lobco. Other abilities that come from her contract is the potential to inherit her witch's magic if trained, and an ability to remain conscious of her life and general location. This also connects her to all other familiars that her witch has, which at the present are four others.
