Notes About Player of Valos:

RP Preferences-

Combat:
I don't do a lot of combat, because my character isn't into it, and it's rare that I can find a justification for Valos to do battle with others, since he's not a far cry from pacifistic. I'm not utterly opposed to battle, but there are higher odds Valos will ICly try to find a way to avoid conflict, or something of that nature. I do consent to death for my character, but that is provided my opponent accepts the same terms; what's canon is canon, and that takes precedence over allowing OOC leak into IC. I'm not signing away his life to just anyone who waltzes by and decides to challenge him, but if you plan to try to kill him, you must specify this 'first', and then I can decide if I'll agree to do battle or not, depending on how I feel, since I suspect some players might be uncomfortable with my presence on the game, and may be eager to take the opportunity to ice Valos(since I'm offering it). For the most part, combat doesn't interest me that much, on an OOC level, and ICly, it doesn't hold much allure for Valos, so if you just want a kick of adrenaline by crossing swords with someone, Valos is probably not your best bet. Also, for those western-biased individuals who are unfamiliar/ignorant with/to various philosophies and lifestyles far and wide, Valos is a practitioner of an art referred to as, 'refocusing', which allows one to endure punishment without giving much thought to sensations of 'pain' or pleasure', which many westerners tend to obsess over(avoid pain, seek pleasure, etc). As such, if he's being attacked, you should not expect that he is going to express a lot of feeling one way or another, as far as comfort or discomfort, in any given scenario.

Social:
Valos' primary calling on FK is interaction with other characters. His very occupation has been, since his arrival on the game, philosophizing, which means that he's liable to do more talking than fighting. For starters, because he sees himself as an intellect, he prefers the pen to the sword, because to him, any angry person without self-control can pick up a sharp object and start swinging it around, whereas it takes a disciplined mind to restrain ones inner feelings while trying to take the most objective path, and in the real world, in fact, according to various sources I've read, 90% of criminals are criminals because they have an inability to subdue their inner demons. Valos is by all accounts, a man who prefers not to pollute the atmosphere of civil discourse by threatening people, calling them by extremely derogatory names, or things of this nature. He's practically as diametrical as ostentatious as one can get, while still being able to remain as a playable character, so he's unlikely to initiate contact with others unless there's a utilitarian reason for it; socialization is not seen as practical, because he has no concern over being loved or hated.... and if you don't need attention from others, let's be serious for a moment.... why on Earth would you start a conversation with someone? Curiosity is his one weakness- emotionally.... As an intellectual who seeks to advance his knowledge, he welcomes new information to add to his collective, whether it's disparaging or praising, and if he thinks someone has data that he could use, he'll try to attain it, assuming it doesn't violate his code of ethics, which is not to pry unless he somehow compensates his conversational partner. I will try, for the most part, to accommodate people seeking RP with me, but it has to adhere to canon, and I may not come up immediately with a justification for why Valos would approach someone else, if you feel your character isn't prone towards being proactive. I will try my best to work something out with you, but if it doesn't work out, then I won't blame you, because to scapegoat someone would suggest that they are beholden to me to begin with, which is not the case; if we are not compatible, we simply aren't compatible.... you are not at fault because you never owed me anything to begin with.

Pose Style:
I pose slowly, and I incorporate a narrative style, which may include information that your character doesn't have immediate access to, which in retrospect, means that if you want to RP with me, expect our scene to be time-consuming, and to possibly have to deal with a scene-pause if we don't finish up during our first session. Again, as I said above, if you aren't compatible with this, I'm not going to persecute you- you were not indebted to me to begin with, so what right do I have to scorn you for choosing not to RP with me, because your preferences don't match mine? That said, if you feel you'd like to RP with me, feel free to page. I am not the most gushy, affectionate person on the planet, but I'm not a vicious monster who is out to get you; I am just here to RP, no more, no less. I'm not here to make friends or enemies, but over the course of my stay, it may happen, regardless, because I know most of you folks out there are fairly human, which I can't blame you for, because I too was human at one time, haha!

(I'll probably add more to this page as time goes on, but for now, this is it! Thanks for reading, folks.)
