Social Aptitude

Silas' abilities and reputation as a performer attract attention from impressed and/or scandalized listeners from all social backgrounds. Silas is a good liar and performer, and as such feels he can engage with people, get them to open up, and reap the rewards. He is not idealistic about people. He tends to think people, be they poor or rich, are petty, vile, and easily led astray. This creates distance between him and others. He may struggle to be truly open to people in times of need, or to offer a soft touch.

Mannerisms

When performing, he can be animalistic; he jerks, twitches, points his long arms at the crowd, and howls.

Speech
