Exact opposite? This sounds suspiciously like a question a Vorlon or a Vorlon sympathiser would ask, and I find that I am quite amused by such an idea.
Being such a complex individual, it would be difficult to categorise what it would be that would make one my exact opposite. It would be far too simplistic to boil such a question down into matters of gender, race, species and the like, for these are not the things that define who we are. It is our beliefs, our actions, that define us, and my beliefs and actions are well beyond the reach and ken of most. Indeed, many tedious hours are spent with people screaming hysterically, ‘But why!’ at me, when they should instead be asking that question of themselves. The why comes from their own intentions when they first answered the original question - what do you want.
However, seeing as an answer is required, and I could quite easily spend hours, if not days avoiding the question and arguing semantics, I will simply present exhibit number one as the closest thing to my exact opposite there is - John J. Sheridan.
Self-explanatory, really.
