18+? Y
Other Character: N
Character
Name: Dewford "Dewey" Dingus Duck
Canon: DuckTales (2017)
Canon point: After "The Duck Knight Returns" (canon current)
Age: Canon says the boys are between 10 and 12. Dewey's the middle triplet, though. OH YEAH.
History: Right hurr.
Personality:
IMPULSIVE: Dewey acts first and sometimes asks questions later, if he remembers to. Whenever any opportunity for adventure or - you guessed it, d-d-d-danger - presents itself, he's there, ready to go. Unlike Huey, who would be in it for knowledge gained, or Louie, who would have eyes on the prize, for Dewey, it's all about the experience. If he had a motto, it would probably be "do it for the story".
IMAGINATIVE: Dewey could come up with a plan or a story for every hour of the day, each more far-fetched or whimsical than the next. He is the first to be on board for stories about monsters, myths, mysteries, or exciting urban legends that don't begin with the letter m, either. He once conceived and tried to film his own late night talk show in his room, but finally gave it up when his brothers needed the lights off to, uh, sleep.
LOYAL: Once someone has proven themselves a friend, Dewey will not leave them hanging. He would go to extremes and the ends of the earth to protect friends and family, and has put himself in harm's way plenty of times to do so.
DRAMATIC: Dewey. Loves. Drama. Whether it's binging his best friend Launchpad's favorite cartoon or getting into some of his own. He is the exact opposite of the principle of Occam's Razor: if the slightest mystery presents itself, Dewey will make the most outlandish predictions about it possible. (Example: when Della reappeared in their life with an artificial leg, he thought she was a cyborg.)
IMPATIENT: While Louie takes shortcuts to avoid putting in effort, Dewey takes them just because he doesn't have the time. The less time you take getting to the adventure, the more time you get to spend having it! Dewey thinks this contributes to living more "in the now", but ... well ... we all know it doesn't actually work that way. Hopefully the Magicademy will start to teach him that even the slower moments have their part to play in drama and glory.
SENSITIVE: Insults stick to Dewey longer than his brothers, and he takes a little more bolstering to get over them: especially if they come from people he holds in high regard, like his Uncle Scrooge. In another sense of the word, Dewey has shown himself to be a good, compassionate egg on several occasions, too: it was his call when he and Huey saved Mark Beaks from being thrown off the roof of his own company, even though Beaks was less than civil and upstanding, himself. Dewey may be young, but he's already got a couple of gold stars in Being The Better Person.
Always Keep In Mind: Dewey is the triplet most concerned with preserving his individuality apart from his brothers! While he loves and appreciates them for how they support him and who they are, he tries to make sure everyone he meets doesn't see him as part of a matching set. Unfortunately, his classic middle child syndrome has made him think that Louie and Huey might actually be, you know, better at most things than him, and more important ... so he covers up his insecurity with his bravado and antics. He is the quintessential class clown and self-proclaimed life of the party ... mostly because he wants to be sure his book-smart and street-wise brothers don't leave him in the dust. That being said, if someone he trusts calls him on his crap, privately, he would probably open up about it, over time.

Questions: Write an IC answer to the following questions:
What do you want to study at Diatu Magicademy? Whatever has the most chance for AWESOME FIELD TRIPS. You guys do field trips, don't you? Please tell me we go on field trips. In like, a FLYING BUS. With dragon wings. Or - or maybe a train that goes so fast you can't even see it! Or on neon green llamas! I mean, really, we don't even need permission slips. You've saved yourselves the paperwork! LET THERE BE FIELD TRIPS.
If you knew you could go back to the moment you left, would you leave immediately or continue your studies for a while? Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I don't know, I can't remember if Uncle Scrooge had figured out that I borrowed his top hat for learning magic tricks yet. If he has? I can totally kick it here for a while. Yeeeeep. Then I can go back with my degree and be all "But SEE? It helped! Magic expert now!" I know. I'm a genius.
If your enemy was at Diatu Magicademy, how would you react? My - oh. Um. That's ... actually a pretty good reason for me to really learn magic. Because if Magica DeSpell ever shows up, this time I want to know how to fight back. For real.
When is it acceptable to resolve a dispute by force? [scribbled arrow pointing up to the previous question with Magica's name underlined a bunch] also yes chokeholding your brothers for the prize in the cereal box is totally acceptable
What should the supreme goal of any wizard be? A spell that simultaneously creates sausage, pepperoni, peppers, mushrooms, olives, and onions! ..... Get it? SUPREME???? ... I don't know, I don't do the deep questions. Go ask Huey.
Special Considerations
Your Special Something: He's all about dat rare familiar! Give it! :D
Rank Your House Choice: Eiather, Valhudor, Ka. Either of the last two fit his personality, but I'd love to have him get jazzed about being in The Blue House only to realize what he's in for...
Powers: N/A
Items: If it's ever possible, I would really, really, love for him to get his mother's scarf.
Anything Else: I know I only tagged canonmates on the TDM, but that was due to unexpected time constraints. I adore cross-canon, and am doing this for the CR with everyone in the game, not just the stellar DT cast which enabled me here. If anything, I hope that cross canon CR will help Dewey develop, and am looking forward to what it brings for him!
