IC INFO
Character Name: Richie "Trashmouth," Tozier
Canon: Stephen King's IT (2017)
Canon Information: "Oh, okay. Trash the trashmouth, I get it."
Canon Point: Post-film. After the events of movie and subsequent finale/wrap-up.
Age: 13
God Houses:
Tyr - While one might not be able to designate it as the best of his qualities, along with a sharp tongue Richie has a sharp wit. He's quick on his feet, a natural mediator - even with his lack of a filter, and plenty fine with taking the risk if nobody else is throwing their hat in the race.
Heimdall - While not totally ever ready to sign on to die for some bullshit plan, Richie's friends mean the world and there's not a single thing he won't stare down for them even if it happens to be an intergalactic sewer-dwelling clown older than time. His loyalty is a huge asset and driving force behind his actions and he will absolutely risk going down swinging if it's in defense of someone he cares about.
Njord - It's all in the namesake, with a huge affinity for using language and weaving words to get his point across Richie is nothing if not a natural-born connoisseur of the language-arts. They call him Trashmouth because talking smack and talking, in general, is a skill-set. He uses words to bolster himself and to break others down. Richie is constantly talking, and definitely among the few in the Losers crew that keeps his shit very close to the chest.
For the purposes of this game, my final decision will be Njord as his knack for words, talking, and being convincing is probably his strongest asset. The others will be more daunting and therefore the easiest resolution will be the words-guy, because who would ever be afraid of or revere a "poet god." It'll seem like the best possible option, a cushier one for sure, and because he's thirteen he'll definitely go with his gut on that.
Personality:
"You punched me in the face, you made me walk through shitty water, brought me to a fucking crackhead house and now... I'm gonna have to kill this fucking clown."
At first glance, Richie Tozier doesn't seem like much with thick-rimmed glasses that magnify his eyes three times over, a mop of brown curls, and loud Hawaiian shirts draping a tall gangly frame he hasn't grown into yet. He's exactly the kind of kid a person would choose to ignore in favor of any unkind commentary, but that's near to impossible because he's always talking. A master-mind of verbal influence with very little filter and not enough control over his own attention-span makes him stick out like a sore thumb. Trouble follows him wherever he goes, his verbal punches never get pulled - not for friends, and definitely not for people unfortunate enough to be considered an enemy.
What he lacks in charisma he makes up for in pure unadulterated bravery, to the point of stupidity, dedicated to seeing a plan through and find a resolution often at the expense of himself. The bolstering of his own ego has become a superpower for Trashmouth Tozier, who's spent his life in the small town of Derry being hazed and persecuted for being different by people like Bowers and the rest of his so-called peers. His dedication to the Losers Club is one born from the trial and error of finding true friendship in a place where he'd never considered a possibility and witnessing first hand the horrors of a sewer-dwelling clown. There's nothing he wouldn't do for his friends, and this is evidenced by his constant descent into the madness of Pennywise and the mystery of what lurks beneath the Neibolt house knowing full-well the entire time that it's a deathwish.
"Wait- Can only virgins see this stuff? Is that why I'm not seeing it?"
With a stubborn-streak deeper than the quarry itself Richie gets by through emotionally tense situations by using deflection to keep prying eyes away from him and focused on anyone else. Unlike the rest of the Loser's club, specifically Bill, who he considers the bravest of all of them, Richie keeps his own issues very close to the chest and does very little self-exploration into them. Better to be blissfully ignorant than allow anyone else to be privy to your internalized trauma. Richie's comes in the form of his self-identification and being uncertain of who he is as a person. His lack of security and grounding in himself is represented more than once in his trials with the clown, played off in the form of mind-games but evident in how he spins off into anger when he's confronted with something he can't immediately rationalize or conceptualize.
Richie, despite his talent for wisecracks and levity at the most inappropriate of times, is actually very intelligent, making grades that suggest his gutter-humor isn't the full breadth of his knowledge. He's technical, and good with his hands- an obsession for Street Fighter at the local arcade his full-time hobby and an object of dedication. This same backseat intelligence comes into play when he helps his friends, like Eddie and his conflicts with his mother. With nerve under pressure, he knew enough to be prepared and not frantic when Eddie gets his arm broken and even pops it back into place so they can better mobilize and get out of there together.
"I'm glad I got to meet you before you died."
Despite his own issues with showing sincere emotion and dedication, these traits come out more often than not in his actions instead of his words which typically have some kind of direct depreciation in an attempt to dissuade people from sharing intimate words with him. Richie would much rather someone else be under the microscope instead of himself and plays it off always toward someone else with bad humor or bad impressions to keep the conversation moving.
Even so, empathy is a huge part of who he is and he's quickly able to register the difference between attention-seeking and more serious shit and is always there to help distract and divert wherever he's needed. He is blindly dedicated to the rest of the Loser's club and fully willing to be in harm's way if it keeps them all together. His encouragement might present itself in some light tooling or something more serious and direct but no-man-left-behind is a clause that he lives by and his driving force is to see them all succeed in the face of what feels like an impossible journey.
