Hi all! I'm Candace, and I'm bringing in Nero from Devil May Cry 5, that game from that franchise about sassy demon hunters, corny one-liners, and killing things as stylishly as possible. Nero is abrasive, sarcastic and can have a short temper, but he's also basically the definition of "cinnamon roll who looks like a sinnamon roll" as he's very protective of the people he cares about.


Nero's familiar will be a Geryon, a demon horse (which can't control time in Avalon, but still useful as a not-so-noble steed...?) and he'll have access to kinetic magic. Since DMC5 Special Edition just dropped yesterday/tomorrow on PS5, if you're still playing through the game for the first time and would rather not be spoiled, feel free to let me know here or over on his permissions post.

I think that's everything! Go ahead and add me over at moonsilver if you'd like to plot or chat. Looking forward to playing with everyone!

Hey, Candace! I'm Alex, and while I'm completely canonblind to DMC5, I do love me some corny one-liners so please feel free to troll Edgeworth with them to your heart's content. I've heard a lot of good things about DMC from friends, so it'll be a lot of fun to see what Nero gets up to in-game!

Capcom protagonist fistbump from across the aisle! I'm sure Nero will get plenty of opportunities to troll him.

ALSO it is the cutest thing ever that Edgeworth is getting a phoenix familiar, I love it :')

my favorite part of his stupid familiar joke is the fact that it puts him in a total catch-22 because he doesn't want to acknowledge that he knows exactly what it is but he ALSO doesn't want to give the impression that he's unintelligent enough to NOT know what it is. the mental gymnastics he's going to have to do to get around it would win him the gold in any olympics.

Anyway I just googled DMC5 and I think they're around the same age? That might be enough to get CR rolling, honestly, WHERE ARE ALL THE ADULTS AROUND HERE

Good luck Edgeworth... I'm sure your prosecutie training has prepared you for said gymnastics

Yeah, Nero is 24! He's the baby in his own canon so it's funny he's one of the oldest here. Time to be a responsible adult...!
