Bridget Pendragon is an Alpha who is the current Chief Cabinet Secretary of Japan and the grandson of the current Prime Minister. He has a younger sister named Brittany who is a Beta. From his mother's side of the family, they were powerful humans born with lightning powers but she never desired to put them to use for anything. Marrying Bridget's father, an American man who had similar abilities as his mother caused Bridget to be born with more powerful lightning abilities, black lightning to be specific. Many would find this to be something that's cool but Bridget doesn't view it this way. He believes himself to be a danger to people as he is unable to control his powers for they tend to act on their own even when he isn't actively using them. He's unintentionally hurt people without meaning to, causing them to fear him. He's even hurt his sister accidentally and she resents him for it for various reasons. He does train to use them and has a certain degree of control but his fear and anxiety worrying over what will happen if he got too close to people prevent him from having full control.

Bridget won't tell anyone about his powers unless they're attempting to befriend him. He doesn't mind making friends as he considers it something rather normal but his fear holds him back in this area of his life, leaving him rather distant and alone. He does have hobbies to keep himself occupied such as listening to music, reading books, and will even play video games. Contrary to popular belief, he's not like most politicians. He wants to help the people of Japan so they can have someone they can count on to help them and believe in when they need it most. He's an Alpha that advocates for equality for everyone, even if it does put him at odds with those that don't agree with him. He doesn't care. He would rather be hated for doing the right thing than to be hated for doing the wrong thing. Once a person gets to know Bridget, they will see he isn't someone that's focused on status and wealth when it comes to his interactions with others. He'd prefer to get to know a person for who they are and not based on status or secondary gender. But he is kind to those he meets and will only become annoyed with someone is actually frustrating him or just being plain weird.

Again, Bridget is kind to people he encounters whether they be strangers, family, or coworkers. He's not an Alpha who's hostile towards anyone which many have commented on how submissive this makes him. He finds that to be a rather odd description of his character but he doesn't put much thought into it half the time. He does like sharing and discussing his interests with people that are interested but the fear of his powers holds him back from forming friendships with people. It does not me he doesn't want to have friends, he's simply afraid of hurting his friends accidentally. He does warn people after talking with them for a while and it's implied that many can't deal with the idea of being harmed by him. He usually expects people to leave or be afraid of him so he doesn't push for people to stay if they choose to go. When it comes to friends, it's not that hard to talk to Bridget as a prime example of this is the thread Naru and I did together involving his interaction with Kuri Mazaki. Currently, Kuri is the only known/canon new friend that Bridget has made thus far on the forum. I'd like for him to make more. They just have to be patient with him but also encouraging him to not shut himself away from others because of his powers. Tell him that he's not a bad person just because his powers are stronger than he is able to control. If anyone has a character that has abilities and is human that wants to also help with this, that's also fine. It doesn't matter if they're male or female. As long as they're understanding about Bridget's situation and wish to help him, that's more than acceptable. I'm sure they'd also be surprised to discover what he does for a living which could make for a comedic surprise. He doesn't talk about his job unless he feels it's necessary. He personally doesn't feel himself to be a threat because of his job but at the same time, he doesn't want to overwhelm someone with them knowing about it either. So, there's a range of ideas to go with here. I'm also open to non-human characters being friends with Bridget too. As they would be more durable than just your average human being with and without powers.

As a politician, one would expect them all to have enemies trying to smear their names and make them look bad. He follows in the footsteps of his family but not getting himself involved with people that do shady things while in a position of power. It never ends well as seen in the past for many American politicians. Though Bridget is half-American, he still has to always be in the public eye and therefore cannot make any mistakes that would cause the people to lose faith in him and not trust him. I do have it common knowledge that some of his coworkers do not agree with his views when it comes to Omegas and how they're treated. Again, he advocates for equality and not the idea of abusing someone merely because you can. I don't picture anything major going on here and for more enemies to come about, it all depends on Bridget's character interactions, which he needs more of. If anyone has any ideas they'd like to pitch for enemies, I'm all ears. It doesn't have to be towards Bridget personally but it can be towards his family. Anyone trying to actually help people is always put down in the eyes of others so it's to be expected. I don't mind RPs where Bridget's at work but because there aren't a whole lot of characters that share his occupation, that will be difficult. There's always a way around that though.

The idea of romance is similar to Bridget trying to make friends. Too afraid to get close enough to someone to love them without worrying he'll hurt them. I probably should've mentioned this in friends too but I came up with the idea on the spot that Bridget could have a secretary/assistant that always helps him and they also have powers of their own and is aware of his situation. Working alongside him all the time, this would be common knowledge for the character. Someone that could calm Bridget down when he needs it. The character would be human of course and the face claim idea I had in mind for what they would look like is Ritsuka Fujimaru from Fate/Grand Order. I didn't come up with a name for this character as the idea just came to me so I will leave that up to the player that takes an interest in this idea. But this character could also romantically have feelings for Bridget but hides them out of fear of losing his job and being judged. Because Bridget's constantly set up on 'mate meetings' in hopes he'd find someone he'd connect with, this character would be always having to arrange the time and place of the meetings whenever he's either contact by Bridget's parents or grandfather. How he feels about that would be left up to the player as well. Same with how strong his own powers would be. I picture them being more spellcaster based but on the dark variety. Not bad dark but just based on the family the character is born into, it would be the powers he develops. I'm also leaving the door open for the character to eventually confess to Bridget. This idea isn't set in stone. This is just one idea I came up with. I'm open to others if this one isn't appealing to anyone. Drop your ideas below if interested in wanting to form something with Bridget.

Hey hey Jazzy dahling!!!! I was thinking of throwing my baby Callidora out there as a friend/potential mate option for Bridget.

Callidora has had his fair share of the darkness, and of course, the face claim luckily matches Ritsuka. I thought maybe Callidora donates to an organization and meets Bridget that way. However, I would like Callidora to become his secretary, seeing how his acting schedule can clear and he could still keep his modeling and dancing at night. None of which would hinder his duties, nor would he put Bridget in any compromising position. Callidora had learned to control his powers from a young age and knows how even his abilities could destroy or injure someone, so he wouldn't have any fear of getting hurt by Bridget. It wouldn't even cross his mind.

Callidora is also pretty calm and collected, even in the direst of situations considering his life has been on the line before. He is a spellcaster type as well though his ability always stays active. It would be something different, that's for sure. But, for the most part, he can help him learn how to control it and give Bridget a sense of freedom in coming into his power wisely. Callidora isn't a horrible person. Just the family he was born into was dark on more than one level.

In a sense, Bridget would be saving Callidora too. Being near someone who would be a light in his world would be beyond more he could hope to see. I could see him falling and eventually actually confessing to Bridget as well in your current scenario.

To be fair, I posted this plot page over a year ago that I forgot I even came up with that potential mate idea for Bridget. It was just something that came to mind at the time cuz, well, nothing else came up that worked for him in that area. Not to mention, was still dealing with flashbacks of being forced to ship him with characters he didn't work with or characters I personally found uninteresting. Since then, I hadn't really given it much thought. Decided more to just focus on him trying to form some friendships with different characters and maybe the "mate" thing will come up later. One doesn't have to work for him to attempt to befriend him so your character really doesn't have to be his secretary to associate with him.

Bridget may be a high-profile politician but he prefers to feel like a normal person and interact with other people despite how fearful he may be at accidentally hurting them. As for anyone that attempts to work for him, his family, more specifically his grandfather would do a shit ton of digging into anyone that applies for jobs and if there is any information that can be found out about the Saito family, doesn't matter which family member, Bridget's grandfather would most likely not have Callidora hired on as his grandson's secretary. Lol. Nor would he be considered a potential mate for him depending on what information is dug up about Callidora's family backstory. Yeah, Bridget's family are, well, they do what family is gonna do. XD

I'm not sure how Bridget would react to him. Probably no different than how he interacts with others. Finding a mate is particularly not on his mind at the moment. Cuz again, I forgot I even came up with an idea when I typed all this up. LMAO. I can see how they work as friends when they cross paths. Kind of like how he ended up forming a friendship with Naru's character Kuri. The only friend that exists atm as I've only used him in like one thread. *does need to do more threads with him* Lets work on the friendship part for these two first before agreeing to the "potential mate" part. ^^
