there are spoilers for the game below

A bright ball of perpetual sunshine and rainbows.

At least, initially looking at Prompto, this is the general assessment most people would come away with about him. He tries his hardest to be upbeat and not let down all those around him simply because he’s always seeking that sort of vindication that he’s wanted and not something that can be thrown away. So, in general, he’s mostly playful and strives to be the one to always cheer up anyone who might be feeling down or sad about something; this plays into the one aspect of his life where he really desires to be useful in some way, though it’s done with a genuineness that demonstrates he is also particularly caring. He just prefers to do that in his own way.

Yet, cracking through the exterior into the deeper parts of him, there is much more to Prompto than his cheerful attitude and sometimes short attention span. For example, in part of how he was raised, he is not comfortable in formal situations and often feels out of place because of it. Part of this stems from the fact he had a quite lonely and sad childhood, where he tried to make the most of a bad situation by projecting something happier. However, that doesn’t dismiss the fact that he exudes symptoms of imposter syndrome because of the truth behind where he was born. In Episode Prompto, there’s in-depth exploration of Prompto actually being a clone of Verstael Besithia, an Imperial researcher, and was essentially “made” to become part of Niflheim’s magitek army. Because it had been a long-kept secret of his, Prompto had always strived to be a person worthy of being Noct’s friend because he’s afraid of being abandoned. Even when he tells the group about what he is, he still fears that they won’t accept him and cast him aside.

Other things to note about Prompto’s personality: he knows a lot of pop culture (often referencing these things a little too much), is really into cameras and photography (which makes him a bit of a technophile), is a little claustrophobic (as well as afraid of heights), and kind of hates bugs. He’s also known to complain about being outdoors, though whether or not that’s a by-product of simulating Noct’s own complaints or because he actually hates it isn’t particularly clear. He tends to be a bit anxious about things sometimes, seen in the way he can get jumpy, and regardless of how much he might actually dislike the outdoors, Prompto is very much a “pet guy”, seen in his excitability whenever he’s around chocobos or dogs or any other type of animal that he can get his hands on to pet.

Though he doesn’t have the experience and isn’t as combat-hardened as Ignis or Gladio (and even Noct), Prompto always strive to do his best and puts effort into everything that he does to get a goal accomplished to the best of his ability. His perseverance is strong when he gives himself something to aspire to (such as when he spent years trying to project himself in a way he thought was worthy of being Noctis’ friend and then training to go on the trip to help protect Noct), and honestly, he just wants the best for everyone around him.

Abilities:
good with a gun
master of the selfie + filters
decent runner
tries a little too hard sometimes

Prompto is your typical twenty-year-old, however, and doesn’t really have any major abilities.

In-Game Memories:
grew up in foster care, bouncing between homes until he was legally old enough to live on his own
learned (around 12/13 years old) that he wasn’t actually a non-meta and does his best to keep it a secret from anyone because of the rising tension between metas and humans; also, most of the homes he was placed in were non-meta environments and strongly anti-meta except for one place he spent about 6 months in. after some particularly strong protests, he realized, more than ever, that he could never tell anyone about being a meta
HOWEVER, he does try to “secretly” help and do good things on nights and weekends (when he’s not working) to use his powers for good; more often than not, he messes up and causes an even bigger disaster that he runs away from
avoids GUARDIAN (and one who works for/with GUARDIAN) at all costs
works several part-time jobs (including a barista at a local non-meta coffee shop and the more popular movie theater + does some amateur photography on the side)
lives in the non-meta district
