Name: Miran Froaude
Canon: Legend of the Legendary Heroes
Reserved: no
Personality: Miran Froaude is violent, absurdly loyal, and "disgustingly perfect"—when it comes to clerical work, at least. He is the vicious adopted son of a noble family who, beginning at a young age (below 10), started arranging for each of his adopted relatives to meet their death so that he could gain more power in the family. He's that type of guy, and now he works for the King of Roland as his right-hand assassin.
Froaude genuinely cares about nothing in the world beyond the king, and his loyalty runs deeper to him than to anything else - he will do anything his king asks, although he occasionally steps outside his boundaries and acts according to what he thinks is the best course of action, and assumes he can smooth this over later. It's basically seeking forgiveness rather than asking permission, but with things like murder and causing civil war. He's obsessed with the king and would do anything for him, up to and including killing his own foster father (although he planned to do that anyway). He wants to "shoulder the darkness" of the king so that the king can be pure and noble in comparison, and wallowing in darkness is the only life that Froaude really knows.
He is ruthless underneath his loyalties, clawing his way up from being an outcast child from his poor village to being a high ranking army general and the right hand of the king. He makes no effort to hide any of this, either; if people are put off by him then they aren't worth his time, and anyone who actively stands in his way might be cut down purely because he's not that patient. He's manipulative and cruel, and often goes straight to threats rather than more subtle manipulation to get what he wants, and he feels absolutely no remorse. Making a mistake just means he miscalculated, not that he's done anything wrong.
He knows how strange he is and how he basically can't function in any normal capacity - he asks people directly why they would bother saving his life and can't fathom why "torture method history" would not be a good birthday party activity panel, and when he's not doing his job he's really just awkward. His reputation is that he's cold, brutal, remorseless... and he is definitely all of these things, and freely admits it. He's also socially backwards, can't comprehend how feelings of love or affection work, and considers murdering someone's closest emotional attachments to be a good method for inspiring their personal growth. Needless to say, he doesn't care much about other people at all.
Essentially, he's a spooky assassin with an obsessively loyal streak and no flair for normal interaction. He's smart, absurdly so, but being efficient at desk work and military strategy/political know-how don't get you anywhere when you'd rather just kill anyone who tells you "no."
Sample Objectives: Be more diplomatic - he needs to learn how to murder people less, it's a terrible first choice for conflict resolution.
Achieve emotional intimacy - with or without a sexual element, because he's never done this and has largely dismissed it as a waste of time, so now it's time to turn that on its head.
Sample: 10+ comments, less comments but definitely 300 words of prose
Sample Game Mechanic: Definitely going to use objectives to make him not necessarily a better person, but a more careful one... Also might try to wrangle a couple servants to use as his own personal network of, well, servants because who doesn't want to take advantage of a thing that makes people loyal to you??
