Baptiste personality
Current mood:  accomplished

1• Baptiste personality is defined much by his past experiences, and also his knowledge he’s gained along the way. He is isolated, and introverted, mostly at first. This is due to his mistrust of others. He is a runaway from Russia so his paranoia is often spiked, not knowing if operatives are sent to him, when he meets new people. He doesn’t spend much time talking with strangers, revealing as little information bout himself as he can. It is admittedly hard to open him up to anyone, in any story. His past being riddled with horror and sadistic inflictions he experienced, it’s hard for him to cope with ever meeting a decent human being “again.”

2• On the note of coping, he is a substance abuser. Undiagnosed PTSD plagues his dreams, and thus he resorts to substance abuse to shade the memories that haunt him. He has become so accustomed to it however that if one is not partaking with him, it would be rather difficult to help him get clean. This should be noted to anyone who wishes to play savior.

3• He is strong willed, persistent to see things through when his goals are set. His determination helps push him through obstacles, even if they become suicide missions, he gives all that he has. With nothing to lose, he has everything to gain, his determination fuels his climb perpetually every day.

4• He’s cautious, and strategic. Analyzing everything and filing through his options perpetually, always looking for an escape, back door, scapegoat, weakness, or what have you. His dread of the concentration camps has lead him to look for all possible means of escape. He WONT be going back a second time.. alive. An important part, he is instinctually manipulative. This does not mean he is out for ill gain, but rather his survival. He does not wish to harm anyone, but his survival is upfront and most important to himself, thus, he uses means of human behavior study, psychology, and advanced learning techniques to help him have an edge in everything. Most often, he is already a few moves ahead. Once again, not to the detriment of others, but for his sake.

5• Lastly, he craves a soul. He wonders lonesome and without companionship. He’s scared of people, scared of hurt, and of betrayal. His natural human instinct to be with others has not been entirely overridden, so because of this, it makes it his main weakness. Be warned, this cannot be exploited more than once or twice.
