Sid Wulstenock

Sid Appearance

Sid is another main character of Oddity. He was dragged into the world by unknown forces and is told he and his team have to destroy the world from the inside out to save all those inside it.

### **Appearance**

Sid has short, golden blonde hair that he sweeps to the side in a longer fringe. His team uniform is mainly a dark forest green colour with peachy-pink highlights. His knee-length shorts are a purple-grey colour and he tens to prefer wearing knee-high socks. He has baby pink coloured eyes and pierced ears, though he only wears earrings sometimes.

### **Personality**

Sid is extremely extroverted and hyperactive as a character. In his speech patterns he tends to be too nice to people, either dodging awkward topics with awkward and nervous giggling, or lying to avoid telling a harsher truth. Luckily, he usually has Amy by his side to truly tell it how it is. He's a character who's greatly angered by injustice, and while it's rare to see his upset or angry, it does happen.

Sid has an instantly warm and friendly demeanor, trying to make friends with everyone he can. He's usually very good at reading people, which helps him understand the struggles and the insecurities of the rest of his team. He always tries his best to keep everyone happy, and without him the rest of the group would almost definitely be in shambles.

While he is outgoing, friendly, and bubbly, Sid has a lot of insecurities that he bottles up from the rest of his team. While both him and Amy have inferiority complexes, they both go about it very differently. Amy tends to put everybody else down, while Sid simply tries to raise his own self esteem up by helping other people, running errands, and encouraging others to try their best. Throughout the story, he learns that the harshness of his teammates towards him is because they think he isn't taking things seriously even when he is, and he has to assure them that he's taking things seriously, while trying to stop the others from losing their motivations.

### **Team**

Sid is a part of Team ZERO, as shown by the style of his uniform.

The rest of the team includes Amy Garlette as his leader, Lea Sereve, and K-41

### **Powers**

Sid is within the Mighty tier. While this is the most common tier, he ends up fairly high up in the tier compared to other characters.

Sid's character class is Hacker, a special class that uses tech instead of weaponry or magic. This is one of the rare classes to find, but most people with this class use the same abilities and therefore have to think out different ways to use them to defend from their opponents who try to guess their next move. The Hacker role of a team is somebody who tends to stay in the back lines of battle, but Sid likes to be up in the front-lines fighting alongside Amy.

#### Control

Unlike a few other hackers who use control to control their enemies, Sid uses it to control objects around him. This means that instead of people being able to fight against his control and him trying to control somebody who may be granted immunity, he can simply use whatever appears around him as a weapon.

#### Summon

Paired with Sid's object control ability, this can be overpowered. Sid tends to mainly take the defensive stance of the team, summoning random objects and using his control to shield his teammates. He can summon whatever object he likes, though larger objects take longer and are more difficult to summon than smaller ones, meaning if he wants to summon a large object he has to fall to the back of the battle and concentrate, receiving cover from his team.

#### Reflection

Sid's abilities can be very easily used in tandem, and this is something he does a lot; where he summons an object, controls it to shield a friend, and infuses it with reflection. This causes whatever projectile attack used to bounce back, more often than not resulting in the summoned object being destroyed in the process. Sid likes to pair objects like mirrors with K-41's Laser ability, reflecting the beams to hit the opponents from behind.

### **Relationships**

#### Amy Garlette

Sid's relationship with Amy starts off amazingly in his own eyes, while people on the outside of it would more likely refer to their friendship as toxic at first. While Sid is clingy, and Amy is well within her right to tell him that she needs space, she doesn't. This results in her snapping at him fairly often, and she's only tolerant and patient with him when she actually wants something. Eventually, Sid learns that sometimes he needs to give Amy time to herself, and makes sure that she knows she can tell him to shut up or go away if she needs to. Through battle after battle, they find themselves constantly saving one another and protecting the other, resulting in a closer bond between the two as they slowly gain trust and healthy dependence in their relationship. Once it's revealed that Amy and Sid know each other and are inseparable in the real world, they have some private talks about what they think they're like in the real world, having had their memories temporarily wiped. This daydreaming and theorizing builds their bond as they share secrets and laughter, and they build up to be a fun parallel of their real world selves.

#### Lea Sereve

Sid sees Lea like a little sister from the first time they meet. He can tell she's not fully stable, insecure, and only cold to people to protect herself from being hurt. He takes this and uses that to become close to her, comforting her along the way and standing up for her in times when she can't speak up for herself. Sid also becomes like an older brother to Lea, who appreciates the fact that he listens to her, unlike the others who talk over her to relay their own thoughts and opinions. He is one of the only people that makes Lea feel seen, and in return she makes him feel stronger in himself and his abilities, and through the series they support each other emotionally and mentally along the way, strengthening their team-working skills in combat also.

#### K-41

Sid's relationship with K-41 is nothing special to begin with. They have a similar dynamic to Sid and Amy, with Sid being overly optimistic and him being overly blunt and pessimistic. K-42 and Amy pick on Lea a lot at the beginning, and Sid is the only one standing up for her and arguing back to them. In Sid's opinion, the fact that K-41 is mentoring Lea on her abilities doesn't give him the right to be rude to her and call her 'useless' all the time, and that with Lea positive reinforcement would work better. Later on in the series they develop a somewhat brotherly rivalry, competing with each other inside and outside of battle to help each other develop their skills and see how to build upon their weak points. This helps K-41 develop a more lenient sense of humour, and Sid teaches him that sometimes it's okay to be hopeful and fantasize about the future.
