Hmm, quite late with this, but better late than never, I suppose. XD;
Thinking of 50 for either Andelis or especially Amadeo would have taken FOREVER, and neither of them are as old and well-developed as Devin, so I split them 25/25. ;)
Hmm, some of this will come across as a numerated life story, heh ;D Sorry ;D
Andelis:
1. Is truly not as slutty as he seems. ;)
2. In fact, he considers love to be a tool of healing (among other things), and may give affection to those who seem to need it, sometimes in not-so-obvious ways.
3. Enjoys cuddling.
4. Mentally talks to his goddess all the time.
5. Unbeknownst to him, she *is* listening.
6. Believes that beauty is a concept that can apply to all of the senses, not just sight or sound.
7. Never goes about in public bare-chested because of his whip-scars.
8. That's more because he doesn't want the sympathy than because of shame.
9. Was sold into slavery at the age of 6.
10. Has always had a pretty good singing voice, so was treated as an entertainment slave (more valuable!).
11. Got his beatings from one particularly nasty master for doing things like taking food to slaves who were supposed to be punished with no food.
12. Perhaps surprisingly, was never sexually abused, if only for the master's profit of having a virgin boy to sell :P
13. Was "rescued" by a wealthy old man who was visiting said unpleasant master and took a liking to the then-adolescent slave. He was a good master and gave Andelis an education, particularly in the performing arts, letting the boy discover where his talents lay.
14. Was freed by the old man when he was 18, although he stayed on out of gratitude and because his former master had been ill for some time; he died less than a year later.
15. Has traveled extensively in mid- and eastern Faerûn, honing his craft and seeing all facets of life.
16. Spent almost a year with traders from the Shou Empire (the setting's analogue of East Asia), picking up various interesting skills along the way.
17. Truly has no place that he thinks of as "home", but manages to make himself cozy wherever he is.
18. Could probably make a very comfortable niche for himself in a noble court, but prefers to wander, spreading the word of Sune far and wide, and enriching his life with new experiences.
19. Is very, very good at keeping secrets.
20. Can be surprisingly vicious in a fight, particularly against someone he considers an affront to his beliefs.
21. Has had very few "long term" relationships, preferring to keep his little liasons short and sweet. This also suits his need to wander.
22. Has surprisingly pretty feet.
23. Would probably have considerably more money if he wasn't constantly giving donations to the temples of Sune.
24. Takes meticulous care of his fiddle and his lute, since they are both treasured gifts.
25. Goes through life with no regrets.
Amadeo:
1. As a character, has somewhat darker skin than his resin-form shows.
2. Was virtually raised as a thief, graduating to assassin when his dexterity and inborn supernatural skills came to light.
3. For a tiefling, those supernatural skills include being able to produce darkness, seeing clearly in darkness, and a certain amount of resistance to elemental magic. The first two abilities are obviously useful in his line of work.
4. Has had a somewhat less innocent relationship with his guildmaster than boss/subordinate or teacher/pupil. Only the very boldest or most foolish members of the guild would dare speak of it even in whispers, though, for fear of incurring the wrath of the guildmaster.
5. Has no known family, and is content with that.
6. Despite being trained as an assassin, he really hasn't been specifically sent to kill many people. He has, however, done his share of abductions.
7. Has a very secular state of mind; like all Faerûnians, believes in the gods, but thinks of his patron god Mask as more of an ultimate boss than a profound spiritual entity.
8. While his chosen weapons are paired daggers, specifically his kukris, is adept with many different weapons, and is excellent in situational combat -- using elements of his environment in a fight.
9. Knows he's fairly handsome, but really doesn't care (although he might be a wee bit vain about his hair).
10. Has seduced people -- or allowed himself to be seduced -- in order to get access to his targets.
11. Has "photographic reflexes", in that he can copy any manuever he sees.
12. Really is quite mild-tempered.
13. Has had it ingrained into him not to show his emotions -- not because of his profession, but because of his distrust of the people around him.
14. Admires horses, and while he never has one in his possession for long, he treats them well when he does.
15. Though he dislikes having to use it, knows quite a bit about poison.
16. Actually enjoys the traveling part of his job, though he might be reluctant to admit it.
17. Finds how people move attractive. (Or unattractive, of course, depending on the person.)
18. As far as he's concerned, most or all of his targets deserved what they got.
19. Every so often, wonders how he might have turned out if he were a normal human.
20. Despite his skill in hunting people, isn't a particularly good game hunter. He's a city boy, really.
21. Prefers sober colors for his clothes, and little ornamentation; Andelis is perhaps starting to rub off on him, though.
22. Due to his upbringing in a treacherous society, tends to be suspicious of gifts, favors, and flattery.
23. Would probably be quite intellectual if he had had the benefit of a good education.
24. Speaks with a measured pace so that he won't have to repeat himself.
25. While he likes being challenged, he doesn't care much for sparring for sport; he's at his best form when in "real" situations.
