Thane Krios (Mass Effect - Regular)
Positive Traits: I'm intelligent/analytical/creative - I can be overanalytical, that or much too literal, but I really, really love mental stimulation and am thoughtful and love the arts in general.
I'm also loyal and devoted. I have a little of a short attention span and really can't get into things that don't interest me at all, but give things all I've got when they matter to me, which also applies to people. I'm told I'm genial towards those I warm up to and a marshmallow towards those I really warm up to, and I do my best to make myself a good investment.
For miscellaneous other bits, I try to keep a healthy sense of pride also, and do my best to be civil and honest. Though I have a serious bent as I'm told, I'm complimented on having a good if dry sense of humor, and really do just plain and simple like doing fun things - I'll play a frivolous joke if the timing seems promising and get a lot of enjoyment out of things I like.
Negative Traits: Negative Traits: I'm infamously obsessive - I tend to stall nitpicking on things I have to get done because I have to get them just right and focus on the details, sometimes excessively, that or abandon or scrap them entirely; I'm cautious/paranoid and read to much into/generally overthink things, which tends to lead to me being indecisive even over completely trivial things or finding things to worry or get into a mood over; I take being "devoted" too far on some counts, I give anything that matters to me my all and fix on things I feel strongly about, but I can't get into anything I can't get interested in and have a short attention span, and I'm stubborn and opinionated and much as I don't want to admit it I really wasn't told I use high standards everywhere for no reason; and you have the idea.
I'm very much introverted, which as has been called out before dips into reclusiveness. I really like privacy and time to myself on the me-side of it and on the others-side tend to feel intimidated or challenged by complete strangers and annoyed and a little smothered by large groups or crowded places, and I'm secretive, even towards people I'm close to depending on what I'm hiding - I'd really just rather not make some things their problem.
For other miscellaneous bits, I'm impatient, quick to feel challenged or embarrassed, unforgiving and not quick to trust, sensetive in both the positive and negative senses, melancholy, slightly absent-minded, and detached in a way that ranges from seeming aloof to not quite in-touch, and I do think my emotions are rather acute, but I'm not particularly comfortable with them or one to talk them over in a straightforward manner - I'm the sort who tries to internalize and ponder them on my own and in the process add extra complications to them.
Hobbies and interests: I like... writing and painting, and also practice keyboard and cooking.
Dislikes: Noise pollution, obnoxiousness, harsh light, being pressured, superficial mistakes, cumbersome sarcasm, gender politics, interruption, time constraints, being patronized, scrambled order.
Is it easy for you to fit in? No. XD I'm not particularly socially graceful and come across interestingly, and I can try but slip and fall horribly when I realize I misinterpreted something vital in a conversation to begin with. I usually find avoiding notice is easier than mixing with it.
As a whole, how do you think other species view your race? I'd like to be able to say my species was plain respected, taken seriously. While I'd hope we weren't completely passive among the other races, I think I'd feel most comfortable as part of a species that wouldn't be domineering enough to garner flat-out hatred.
How does YOUR race view other races? Probably with an even openness. I'd also like to think that any special allegiences or enmity we developed was made on basis of groups within other species - governments and such - rather than species themselves.
Is there an obvious difference between genders? For example, are the women of your species held in high regard or are they mostly ignored? I'd be thrilled if gender mattered as little as possible - I could take or leave belonging to a species with relatively clear sexual dimorphism at a glance, but I'd avoid gender politics.
What types of climate would your species thrive under? Nowhere particularly cold or windy. XD
What would your species be known for? Their intelligence, their war know-how, or something else completely? It'd be an honor to be part of a species known for something mental, though I wish I had a better answer than that. I definitely don't see us as pointedly militant.
Do you think religion would play a huge part in your race's society? What about government? Spirituality and/or philosophy if nothing else, certainly, spirituality preferably not carrying definite weight in government except as perhaps an inspiration. As for the role politics play in society as a whole, though I suppose I wouldn't necessarily represent everyone else, I personally have more interest in the economics/industry aspect of management. I suppose at any rate I wouldn't want our politics to be one of the most characteristic aspects of our culture or a sloppy self-defeating game. I wonder whether they'd potentially go hand-in-hand - something running smoothly enough to not make much noise.
Pick up to three of the options below that interest you:
[X] Beauty and Elegance
[ ] Technologically Advanced
[X] Independence
[X] Uniqueness
[ ] Military Power
Anything else you would like to mention? Aside from the fact thst I'm glad this theme is here, no, thank you. XD
