http://animorphs.wikia.com/wiki/Ax
Personality: Who can really say an alien is normal? Even so, Ax has learned how to more or less get along with the humans just fine whenever he's in his own form, bizarre as it is. He's beyond intelligent, way beyond (Don't worry, though, since things in the anime/manga/game world don't always actually follow "REAL WORLD" logic that shouldn't be a problem here. He's not going to crack the puzzle or find a way home or anything like that. He'd simply be frustrated and puzzled over how such things are even possible when they make NO SENSE by any form of science, mathematics, physics, or-- blah blah blah. :D Such as the technology behind the Pokeballs.), and he has a bit of an ego and a sense of pride behind not only HIS intelligence, sense of honor, and justice but also that of his entire race. He has seen some examples that would indicate that not all members of any given intelligent race uphold the same morals, and it's broken his heart in some ways to see that even his people are more ruthless than he might have given them original due credit for. He is often times conflicted between which side his true alliance would lie if he ever had to chose. In spite of this Ax is very loyal to his friends, especially his prince, but there have been times that he's wondered about what route is best, or if he's doing the right thing. He disapproves of dishonorable behavior but can sometimes be coerced, tricked, or ordered into it by his friends.
When he morphs into a human, though. Oh boy, watch out. Nearly all semblance of the sane, albeit strange, teenage alien fly out the window.
Ax has a tendency to try to put any and everything feasibly possible into his mouth. He's adequately obsessed with this human orifice since he's completely lacking one of his own in his Andalite body. He has a specific weakness for Cinnabons, salt, and grease and no he does not particularly care that you aren't supposed to combine all three. :|
He often plays with sounds and finds humans to be horribly inefficient for the most part, everything from telling time to space travel, really. The only thing that he does feel they have perfected is food, specifically the above mentioned Cinnabon franchise. His love for these sticky treats can, will, and have overridden his self control, though it's unclear if he will react the same way if given a similar treat.
Human behavior and most things about them are a mystery to him, even after all this time. Much of what they do seems illogical and he still sometimes struggles with even the basic things like getting dressed. He has no sense of social etiquette at all, to make matters even better, and has proven himself to be surprisingly popular with the ladies even though he is neither interested or fully understanding of these things. His often times gross behavior just makes this particular talent even more baffling.
Strengths/Weaknesses: In human form Ax has pretty much no strengths to speak of. His Andalite body is basically like that of a Centaur, with a scorpion like tail that's bladed with a scythe type blade at the end for self defense and balance. He also has stalk eyes in addition to his own that allow him full vision at any angle whatsoever, and extra fingers on his hands (by human standards.). Without these he's at a severe disadvantage and usually very uneasy. He feels naked without his tail.
S - Intelligence: Definitely a strength, Ax's brain has gotten him and his friends out of many a situation and no matter what morph or body he's in he always has this on his side. This lends him a hand in battle as well, since this gives him an edge in coming up with strategy.
W - Imbalance: Because he's used to morphing his human form he doesn't struggle with this as much, but he's not fully accustomed to a human body so there may be times when balance is an issue, especially in situations that involve abnormal physical activities. He's also not very strong.
W - Sense of Taste: Yes, this is a weakness. Ax has an URGE to try different things in his mouth, LOTS OF DIFFERENT THINGS. Grass, food, drinks, not so edible things, goodness help him if he ever discovers pop rox. It doesn't necessarily matter that it may be detrimental to his health, either. If you let him near it and do not warn him he will try it, like a child.

Samples
First Person Sample:
[ First there's a shot of the sky. It's a very lovely shot given the clear weather, but it's also a bit dull after a while unless you're a big fan of nature. No worries, though. An Absol is actually the face that appears on the screen first, not Ax's. Her look is somewhere between resigned, tired, and slightly annoyed. ]
I think my trainer is defective... can I trade for a new one?
[ She disappears and the gear shifts as she retrieves it awkwardly from the grass to show Ax and "Mom" a little ways away at the entrance of the house. His mouth is stained around the outside with what looks like either ketchup... or blood........
I really hope that's ketchup. He has not noticed that the gear is on yet. ]
I must insist that these rations are not enough to last three days. I have experienced this before, I speak from experience-- ence, ree-yunce.
[ Mom does not look amused or convinced, she just looks scolding and continues trying to get him out the door, fussing about keeping the professor waiting. ]
If you do not provide me with proper rations then I will become malnurished. What type of mother would send her offspring into the wilds without adequate-- aaaad-DUH-kwet --preparation?
[ SLAM!
... Well then. He steps back from the door, barely having avoided having his nose smashed in. Turning towards Absol and the gear calmly-- what scene? He didn't make any scene. You're crazy. ]
I had hoped that she might see reason, however I do not think that this "mother" character appreciates honest criticism. We shall have to see about securing food on our own. [ Just as he finishes this statement he finally notices that the gear is on. He approaches, stooping down to take the gear from her-- she hands it over willingly. ]
... I am not certain if you are still here, Marco, Rachel, but I have returned.
[ He hesitates. There's something different about him, he looks the same as he did before, but he seems older somehow. Only time will tell how long this will last, but for now at least...
He hesitates for a moment, as though he were going to say more (The last time he saw Marco was just moments before hitting the final switch on the "Insanity express" as he might have called it.), then he ends the feed to wait for responses. ]
Third Person Sample:( Old Sample)
(New Sample)
Three seconds. Two seconds. One second.
One moment he had just barely finished morphing to cockroach as the train crashed violently overhead the Yeerk pool, the next the sharp ring of an alarm clock was jolting him from his sleep. Ax sat up in bed, confused and disoriented. His surroundings were completely unfamiliar for the moment. He had been ripped from the end of a very high speed train ride and his mind was reeling a bit from the change in senses.
From near blindness to sudden, full on vision. From being deaf to anything but vibrations, from muted touch to suddenly being aware of the feeling of soft bedding beneath his hands and the sounds of the woman downstairs preparing breakfast. There was someone breathing right next to him as well. He turned his gaze to look at the Pokemon sitting faithfully by his bed. The blade protruding from her head would have caused his own tail blade to twitch, if he still had it.
"I have returned to Johto."
... Absol didn't seem to know or care what this meant, sitting up to place her paws on the bed. He seemed to be coming into awareness at last as the reality of it sank in. Back in that video game world again, how long had he been gone? Were his friends still here? What would become of him back home, and when would he return? If he should happen to die... then perhaps it was better to remain in Johto, maybe if the others were there he could warn them. There were many questions, but at least he had some certainties. He already knew how things worked, what to do and what not to do. Hopefully this advantage would make his second stay easier.
Once again his attention turned to his new starter Pokemon who regarded him curiously.
"That would mean that you are my new starter Poke-EE-mon. I wonder what happened to Hyperbole."
Absol don't care. Absol don't give a bleep. She moved off of the bed again and moved to head down the stairs, dutifully leading the way. They had an adventure to start! Perhaps
