More fresh meat!

Hello, my name is Jess...the second I guess? Because apparently another Jess beat me here. Oh well, that's beside the point. The point is that I'm bringing you Margulis from the not-as-popular-as-it-should-be video game series Xenosaga. Margulis is a complicated man with noble goals, but he's also harsh, ruthless to the point of seeming heartless, occasionally a bit temperamental though he tries to control it, can talk forever if you get him on certain topics and maybe enjoys a good fight a bit too much.

He's also a former priest/High Inquisitor, a former colonel and spy, a long-time swordsman/essentially mage and his last military rank was commander. He's...been many things. And he's coming from tvk, which means he's getting his powers back after several months without them. Oh, and he's also dead and not at all bothered by the topic.

He'll be rooming with Lee Chaolan and Isaac Clarke, the poor souls. And last but not least, my AIM and Plurk are both firebenderjess so feel free to add me at either/both.

Pfff, Margulis is basically a disillusioned Christian. But he doesn't talk about the religious shenanigans much these days since he was burned pretty badly by his faith.

Also, all the eye rolling at the potential for small talk about women you noted in that log. Romance is stupid blah blah better things to do with your time blah blah.

[vaudevil]

LOL I figured as much about the issue with women. Lee isn't really interested in romance, he's interested in playing the field when the mood strikes him. Oh well, he'll keep that under wraps once he figures it that Margulis isn't interested in such things.

Yeah, Lee doesn't talk about religion much but politics and military things he can go on about for a while.

[misplacedxsheath]

Margulis isn't quite as uninterested as he acts, since there is a lot of subtext between him and his rival and him and that loyal subordinate I was talking about earlier. He's just pretty much married to his work.

And don't get him started on politics. He absolutely loathes the main political force of his universe.

[vaudevil]

So does Lee but he loves the debate and expressions in a sadistic way with a twist of lemon. The way he sees it, if he can get under the skin just a little bit to start an itch, the reactions to do something about the situation is worth it.

Good or bad, Lee is a reactionary person and enjoys being in the middle of things sometimes, then he'll shove his size 13 shoe at some backsides to kick them into action.

[misplacedxsheath]

Ohh, Margulis will definitely like that. He can't stand passive people and considers willpower, individual thought and motivation required traits to even be considered a person.

[vaudevil]

Being passive isn't something Lee likes doing. Being static causes stagnation, being too gung-ho gets a person killed. Oh, he'll follow orders, just don't expect them to be carried out in a military fashion. He'll get the job done, that's for sure, in his own way. He's pretty good about keeping it neat and clean.

[misplacedxsheath]

And he's talking to the guy who literally chose death over stagnation when he couldn't continue along his old path but didn't see a way to a new one...

He also tries to be the serious, practical guy...but then his love of dramatics butts in and he does things like call down a lightning bolt to destroy a stone statue so he can make an impressive entrance.

[vaudevil]

Lee would have applauded! He loves dramatics if they're done right.

[misplacedxsheath]

And he does them right XD He's also pulled an exit riding off on the shoulder of a giant mecha once...
