I just need my current personality deleted and this one pasted in. It's the same personality, just in better formatting and more elaborate.
Thanks in advance.
[ul][b]Stoic-fronted[/b]
Though not entirely a front, and not completely overtaken by this illusion, Bastion does tend to put himself forward as apathetic to many situations. In some regards, this is because he simply is uncaring. However, Bastion is an empathetic person, though he refuses to admit it (and is even embarrassed by it), and this front is mostly a cover for how much he [i]does[/i] care. The one emotion he can't hide is anger.
[b]Empathetic[/b]
Bastion is extremely understanding of other's misfortunes (probably a result of his lifetime as a slave). Combined with his sense of justice and distrust of the World Government, this trait often leads to Bastion brashly rushing off to help complete strangers, only to deny that he did it simply for the sake of helping others later (usually saying he had some selfish reason instead). His empathy causes him immense humility if pointed out by those he has grown close to, and he will always deny it adamantly.
[b]Untrusting[/b]
Bastion isn't naive, though he often takes his caution too far. He isn't often scared to agree to work with someone or to help someone, but he almost always looks over his shoulder for any knives that might come. Even once he has broken the barrier of caution and feels that he can trust someone, he often doesn't let them in on his actual feelings or emotions (even he doesn't know why he does this). On the contrary, he will speak about his past or his motivations and goals without hesitation to anyone who inquires.
[b]Short-tempered[/b]
Of all his emotions, anger is most prominently seen in Bastion. Insults and other provocation have little effect on him, but the moment Bastion sees (what he believes to be) injustice, he tends to lose all control. Partially because of his own sense of justice, and partially because of his belief that the World Government is inept at delivering said justice, he will almost always take matters into his own hands (and relentlessly, without mercy and without control).
[b]Righteous (in his own mind)[/b]
Bastion's viewpoint of morality is skewed due to his life as a slave, but he believes in it immensely and stubbornly. Generally, he doesn't concern himself with small things (stealing, for example), but when the life or freedom of a person is threatened, Bastion feels compelled to act regardless of his situation. Ironically, Bastion feels it almost necessary to kill any wrong-doer he comes across, despite the ideal conflicting with his sense of morality. He feels no remorse or hesitation in the action, though generally isn't satisfied after, either. Likewise, he believes it always falls upon him to deal with whatever injustice he encounters, as he cannot trust or depend upon the World Government to fix anything.
[b]Stubborn[/b]
Bastion is a relentless figure, in his goals, in his motivations, and in his doings. Some see it as determination, others as stubbornness. Bastion doesn't care--all he knows is that he doesn't often give up on things, unless he feels he was misguided or that the situation had changed somehow.[/ul]Thanks in advance.
