Mental characteristics

Personal history

Conradus was born into the large Aasimar population in Seraphix, the nation south of Koryo. His family are high ranking members among the Church of Tyr. While his Mother and Father were both clerics he found himself enjoying bringing the might of Tyr's to his enemies first hand. Early into his young adulthood he was shoved into a holy war of sorts against the forces of the Church of Bane. The Church of Bane's military might was led by a confident and powerful Fallen Aasimar by the name of Nultial Invictus. Nultial would rarely appear on the field of combat, but when he did Conradus would rush him head on. Conradus knew that Nultial was always just toying with him in their brawls. When the Dark Apostle would finally get bored he would toss the young paladin aside like a used napkin. The one bright side of his over confidence was it gardnered the attetion to other elites within the Church of Tyr. He flew through the ranks of the Church of Tyr's military arm until finally he was taken off the battlefield entirely. He was placed on a diplomaic mission, to go north to the isolated orient of Koryo on behalf of Seraphix's leadership as a whole. Most did not agree with the selection of Conradus as he was seen more of a brute than a diplomat, but he was one of the few that did not need a station of bodyguards to defend himself. Regardless he was sent to the north to attempt to negotiate the lifting of their isolationist policy. Meeting a human man named Genji and kitsune woman named Nozomi on his way to the capital.

Education

As with all born within his Aasimar community of Tyr worshippers his education primarily came from the church libraries and the clerical order. Conradus took his education seriously, in his own time of course. Much to the annoyance of his teachers Conradus would spend a majority of their time being a fool with his friends Ealdier and Avram. In the end he completed the education needed to become a paladin of the church.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Conradus was able to return north to Koryo in his friend's time of need and was able to help them defeat the leader of the Yonkishi, Mugen the Death. In doing so he was able to become a part of an elite order of Tyr's paladins known as the Hammers of Grimjaw.

Failures & Embarrassments

He carries a load of great guilt, for one he has never been able to defeat Nultial Invictus in combat. In response to that feels the war dragged on longer than it needed to and is frightened that the man is still alive. Another failure he sees was when he was helpless to save his recently bonded friend Sanada Yukimura (Genji). Conradus was in the crutches of a beast, 120 feet in the air, only able to watch as Sayuri the Pestilence distentigrated his companion. He was at least able to rectify that situation by completing a great favor to revive his fallen comrade. However the failure that fills him with the most sorrow is the death of Nozomi. His small group were in Tengoku when the attack from the Yonkishi to awaken Mugen began. While himself and Genji were able to escape she was caught in the grasp of Setsuna the Flood's wave and before he realized what had happened it was too late. Lastly Conradus wishes that the fall of Babylon didnt destablize his nation as hard as it did, with the loss of their head of state all the churches across the land escalated the holy war to a true war for political power. Conradus had to return home to protect his homeland. He wishes he would have been able to help defeat the rest of the yonkishi but had faith in Genji to get the job done.

Mental Trauma

The death of Nozomi and Genji instilled something in Conradus. He made an oath to himself he would never ever leave another ally behind. He would sooner die himself before seeing another friend fall away lifeless.

Intellectual Characteristics

Conradus is intriqued by new technology, especially if it involves combat. It has become kind of one of his go-to moves to ask local blacksmiths if they have come up with something they want tested.

Morality & Philosophy

Conradus has a pretty cut and dry morality in that if youre doing something against the law or in ill will against someone you should be punished for your actions. However knowing how unsavory war can be sometimes, moral sacrifices have to be made for the greater good of the people.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Most of Conradus's decisions come from a place of selflessness, yes he wants to gain strength and is always searching for new forms of power. That could be as simple as a new weapon or as complex as an alliance but he believes if he is strong others do not have to and can be protected by him.

Savvies & Ineptitudes

Conradus prides himself on being acute in social situations and considers himself able to at least get to the negotiating table. However much to the chagrin of Genji he is not always the best tactition and is not afraid to brute his way through a problem if a combat situation arrises.

Likes & Dislikes

Conradus enjoys anytime he is spending with good company. He could be in some hell cave filled with slime creatures, in the middle of battleifield, or somewhere normal if he is surrounded with friends he will not mind in the slightest. The thing that annoys Conradus the most is indecision, he is not against plans he is against arguing about plans. If he believes action needs to be taken then it should be taken as soon as possible

Virtues & Personality perks

He cares for the common folk and would certainly put his life on the line for really anyone that asked for help and he would hope his allies would follow suit.

Vices & Personality flaws

His major flaw is he is over-confident he believes, especially now, any mountain is climbable if you just put your soul into it. This constantly gets him in unfavorable situations but he always seems to pull it out, which in turn exacerbates the problem.

Hygiene

Conradus is a reflection of not only his church but his nation as a whole. Due to this fact he puts in major effort to maintain personal cleanliness, especially within city walls.

Social

Contacts & Relations

Conradus has easily accesable contacts within the Church of Tyr due to his ranking within the church.
He is also alligned with Bito Kanzashi

Religious Views

Conradus is a strong and devout believer in Tyr. Even though the gods have retreated beyond the divine gate he has faith that he is still protected under the watchful eye of the Blind Justice.

Social Aptitude

Conradus is incredibly comfortable in social situations and is not afraid to put someone on the back foot in a negotiation. However this aggressive strategy does tend to backfire.
