British Antarctic Territory



Antarctic grew up completely without any human contact, his only companions were the penguins and seals that lived around him. Only when he was a teenager did he finally have contact with other nations.

Appearance

Antarctic has purple eyes, sunny blonde hair, thick eyebrows and a cowlick sticking out from the side of his head. He also has a scar over his right eye and is also half blind in said eye, usually wearing a patch or bandage to cover it. There are two different outfits that he most commonly wears, depending on if he is in his homeland or somewhere warmer. His winter attire consists of: brown tie up winter boots, brown mittens, white pants, long black winter coat and a white and black striped scarf.

Personality and Interests

The hidden demon within him has amplified his negative feelings so Antarctic is fairly unstable and has also developed other personalities. Like Russia, he is unaware of his cruelty and sudden personality changes, also sometimes appearing cold and uncaring, but just doesn't understand other people's feelings and emotions. He is calm and usually quiet but will speak up if he has a strong opinion about something. When England or a country that is affiliated with him is mentioned, his aura becomes quite dark and heavy and he becomes bitter and scary. In battle, he is violent and sadistic, especially if he hates the person he is fighting and unless stopped somehow, will fight to the death in the later instance. He has no social skills whatsoever, and does not know how to communicate well with others, not understanding emotions. Antarctic is used to taking care of himself and will not accept any help from anyone, seeing this as weakness. Being used to cold weather, and currently living in Europe, he doesn't like to stay outside for too long due to the temperature difference. He heats up very easily and will feel sick and faint if he is too hot. On a lighter side, he is curious and is not familiar with many everyday things, being isolated all his life and wants to learn about them. He appears cheerful when eating or excited about something new that he finds interest in. He has quite a big appetite and as it is all he is used to eating, fish is his favorite food. He has grown quite fond of ice cream as well and eats it often to help cool him down. He also loves colorful flowers and shiny things. His best friend is baby Emperor Penguin named Pepper who he brought with him to keep him company.

 * 1908: From eating foreign food, Antarctic has grown up quickly by this point, being even a little bigger than America now. Returning back again, England unofficially names Antarctic as a younger brother and claims the first part of the contient's mainlands for his own, which Antarctic does not take to kindly. Not realizing that part of the reason for this was that England wants to help him, the teen angrily challenges the older nation to a fight. England was soon forced to accept so he could defend himself against Antarctic's attacks. Due to his inexperience, along with bad luck, Antarctic lost and was accidentally cut across his right eye, causing him to become half blind.


 * 1923-1943: A few other countries (including France) decided to follow in England's footsteps and claim part of the surrounding land for themselves, making Antarctic angrier still. A wandering demon was soon drawn to the strong potential and negative emotions growing inside the nation and fused with his soul in exchange for power, which is what Antarctic desired so he could destroy England.

Relationships

America

America was the first who came in contact with Antarctic, befriending the younger nation and taking shelter from the cold together. Not being able to handle the cold temperature, America's visit was somewhat short but he promised to return in the summer when it was warmer. It became a yearly trip, and was the only thing Antarctic had to look forward to, America being his first real friend and an older brother figure. As America got busy, and being the forgetful nation he is, his visits stopped and Antarctic was left alone again. The latter is bitter towards the other for forgetting him, and his desire to become stronger and need to be remembered and recognised, were only fueled further. The two are eventually able to meet again and make amends thanks to Canada, who agrees that while his brother can often be an idiot, he truly means well.

Norway

Upon meeting Antarctica, he found he was more comfortable around him than he usually was around strangers, perhaps due to them having a similar personality. It comes a surprise to him that Antarctica can see his magical creatures, not having heard of many besides himself who could. The two consistently maintain a good relationship and consider each other friends. Norway teaches Antarctica some magical spells, so he is able to entertain himself and protect himself when neccessary.

Russia Russia was actually the first nation that Antarctic saw, being interested in meeting him but as he was too unfamiliar with being in contact with others, he was too frightened and hid, the other not seeing him. When they finally meet formally, Antarctic quickly develops strong romantic feelings for him and always jumps at the chance to be at Russia's side.

England

Seeing England pass by his land, Antarctic started to become less intimidated by strangers and more interested in meeting them. Unfortuantely the older nation

Canada

When first leaving his homeland, Antarctica happens upon Canada's land when in search of Norway, his bad sense of direction leading him the wrong way. Landing in the northern snowy part, Antarctica first believes he has gone in circles and ended up back home. Disheartened, he comes upon Canada and initially mistakes him for America, about to hit him when he realises his own mistake and apologises. Canada forgives him of course and they get to know each other, finding they were both forgotten by their family. They form a special bond and promise to never forget one another.

France

Sealand

Upon meeting Sealand, the two get on right away, forming an alliance as they have the same goals. They both have the need to become powerful and recognized by the other countries, succeeding England in doing so.
