How does Character see himself/herself? James doesn't have an incredibly high opinion of himself but does possess a narcissistic streak. He often views himself as whoever he wants to be at the time, taking up extreme method acting for his roles while spying, but over all he acknowledges himself to be stubborn, childish and yet good at what he does, with an ability to charm the pants off many.
How does Character believe he/she is perceived by others? Either a complete asshole, or a complete gentleman. Possibly both. It depends who is perceiving him, but he's aware of what others think of him
How self-confident is the character? He acts with masses of self-confidence, because when it comes to his abilities, James believes in himself to the fullest extent, which would explain why he does most of his suicide missions
Does the character seem ruled by emotion or logic or some combination thereof? While Bond is very logical about things, he's known to go head first into scenarios, trusting his instinct and judgment just as much as any thought out plan. He balances both logic and emotion, though has been warned before to keep his emotions out of the equation
What would most embarrass this character? It's not exactly easy to embarrass James, as he has very little to be embarrassed about. Were someone to attempt to expose something strange about him, Bond would likely play along just to remove any awkwardness from the situation
Emotional Characteristics
Strengths/Weaknesses: Emotional strengths would be level-headedness, approaching things with a clear mind, able to move on quickly and seeing the humour in the strangest things. Emotional weaknesses would be holding grudges, stubbornness, arrogance and a sharp temper
Introvert or Extrovert? Mostly introvert. His natural self is an introvert, much more content with being alone and keeping to himself while approaching situations with little emotion and getting all the inspiration and drive from himself, not being a fan of idle chitchat or one that likes being with people for the sake of it, but for his jobs sake, and to get what he wants, he can occasionally switch to a more extraverted approach on the outside
How does the character deal with anger? James actually has a rather high tolerance level for that sort of thing. However, there are times when his patience can be worn thin and Bond will snap His ability to deal with anger once it's reared it's head isn't entirely appropriate, either lashing out physically, snapping back with bitter words, or falling into a sullen silence
With sadness? With a complete blank of emotions, often replacing any upset for anger and becoming bitter and irritated when sad
With conflict? By facing straight up to it, whether it be a conflict of words or a physical conflict, James won't be likely to back down
With change? James likes his simple comforts, but in a job like his, he's more than capable of dealing with change and in fact often strives on it
With loss? Much like sadness, Bond will retreat from the world and become bitter and cynical
What does the character want out of life? James already has about as much as he thinks he can get out of life and he's often stated he doesn't think he'll be around for much longer
What would the character like to change in his/her life? Very little
What motivates this character? Himself, along with proving himself to others
What frightens this character? Having his weaknesses exploited and having the few he truly cares for being killed, as that happens too often in his life as it is
What makes this character happy? Simple pleasures; a good coffee, a fine drink, intelligent company, better than average sex, people watching, being respected and liked for who he is and what he does
Is the character judgmental of others? Can be at times, but he often has to make character judgments after very brief meetings
Is the character generous or stingy? With material things, James is generally very generous as he doesn't have any issues with money, but his emotional generosity is incredibly stingy, where he tends to only give his time and interest to those who he thinks really deserve it
Is the character generally polite or rude? All depends on what he wants. Or what they want. James frequently comes across as rude because he's very frank about his views, but more often than not he's perfectly capable of being polite, especially in the company of women
Spiritual Characteristics
Does the character believe in God? No
What are the character's spiritual beliefs? James doesn't admit to having any
Is religion or spirituality a part of this character's life? No
If so, what role does it play? Bond has openly admitted to a psychologist that he's never really thought about it all and this may hold some truth since the death of his parents has aided in his lack of belief
