Personality ::
-"You'll never make me believe that."
(( Steadfast >> Hard-headed ))
Bel is loyal; whether it's to an idea or a person, if he places his trust in something, he's not likely to change it all that easily. His loyalty, either to his faction or his friends, is neigh on unshakable. But ask him to change a long-standing notion of his, even if it's completely ridiculous, and he'll be hard-pressed. Sometimes his stubbornness in this regard makes him quite the fool, especially when it's obvious that he's wrong. Still, whether it's pride or just a dislike of having placed his faith in the wrong person or idea, Bel will probably take offense to having to change his views of something than expressing gratitude for learning the truth.

-"I'll show you an agonizing technique from the country of... my fist!"
(( Devoted to Martial Arts >> Muscles for Brains ))
Practice is something that Bel appreciates is necessary to get stronger and is happy to do. He views his body as a temple, literally, and maintains that he worships at it by keeping it strong and healthy. He can be kind of a health nut when it comes to food, but it's all done to keep himself in the best shape possible. He makes sure he carves out time each day to train, telling himself that he has to keep going. However, Bel has never had the head nor the patience for academics. He comes off as more or less oblivious when it comes to culture, especially, and most facts or sciences will just perplex him after a little while. Still, in his line of work, muscles tend to get the job done pretty efficiently, so he doesn't often feel like he's missing much.


-"My way or the highway!" (( Conscientious >> a**l ))
Order is very important to Bel. He sometimes gets likened to a machine in that he functions best when everything is in its proper place and he knows what's going on. His meticulous nature helps him in his hobbies, sewing in particular, because it adds quality to his work and ensures that he takes care of all parts of a job, rather than complete it messily. He's the kind of guy that won't attempt something unless he knows that he can do it and do it well. On the flip side, Bel can be more than a little obsessed with putting things back in order and absolutely hates dealing with a chaotic situation. It stresses him out to be out of his comfort zone, and he'll focus more on getting things back in order over adapting to them as they are.

-"Go big or go home!" (( Grandiose >> Obnoxious ))
Belial crashes through life, whether it's ripping through the ground and bursting out at totally unexpected times or saying precisely the wrong thing too loudly. He gets noticed a lot and easily, though usually not for the best reasons. Brash and quick to anger, Bel can be loud when he's confronted but will throw his all into a fight, just like the street-fighter heroes he admires. There's a kind of majesty in that, but it's mostly hidden under his bluster and obtuseness. Sometimes Bel gets too caught up in how awesome he is himself and fails to recognize that his grandstanding is either making people feel uncomfortable or driving them away. But then again, if Bel can't do something on a suitably grand scale, he won't do it at all.

-"Whaaat? Hey man, I totally didn't see your antique table over there. Um... my bad?" (( One-or-zero Focus >> Oblivious ))
Bel gets so obsessed with accomplishing a single task and doing it really well that sometimes he doesn't see other things around him. For example, he'll be able to guard a treasure room that he's assigned to, but it would completely slip his mind that thieves might hit another room instead. He'll be able to do one or two things really well, but any more than that is just asking for trouble. It's not done consciously: he just very innocently forgets. If you were to remind Bel about something, he'll look at you eyes wide and then promptly forget about the other thing that he was doing to concentrate on what he was reminded of. His intentions are good, but his focus is terribly narrow.

xxxxxLikes: sewing, fashion, cooking, training, fighting, showing off (both in general and his war scars), making grand entrances everywhere he goes, putting things together, cleaning.
xxxxxDislikes: disorder (especially in his home or turf), forgetting stuff, being caught flat-footed, book-smarts, people with as much of an ego as him, sitting around too long/laziness.
xxxxxFavourite Food: pasta and bubble tea
xxxxxHobbies: Bel likes making a lot of his own clothes. He's pretty handy with a needle and thread, and often does minor alterations to everything he wears-- either adding spade-shaped patches or designs-- or creates stuff from scratch. He's also fairly well-versed in cooking and tends to be pretty picky about the quality of food that he both cooks and eats. Generally, he prepares a lot of his own food. Last, of course, Belial invests quite a bit of time to his martial arts training. He finds that it helps him master his anger and leaves him feeling calmer, as well as keeping him healthy.

xxxxxInterests: Bel would love to be classier, become a gentleman, but for a street tough, it's a little difficult. Secretly, he likes learning languages because they sound pretty, even though his lack of brainpower frustrates him. If he had more time, Bel would probably love to work with machinery, too.
xxxxxFaction Opinion: Loyal to the death.
Spades is the only place for him. Unwavering in his devotion to the Hatter, Bel strives to be the best that he possibly can and advance the Spades agenda. His faction gives him cause to let loose, haul a**, and then look cool, which is pretty much all a guy like Bel could ask for.
xxxxxAspirations: On the outside, probably the greatest fighter, or at least the head of the streets. Internally, Bel really just wants to win genuine admiration from someone, to look cool and have his coolness verified by an impartial source. He wants to be the greatest fighter, but he also understands that that's a lifelong thing, that he'll always be fighting for it.
xxxxxFears: Bel fears powerlessness. He hates to have someone break through his defenses, perhaps even more so because it's so difficult to bring a tank like him down. Likewise, he never wants to stop fighting. If someone got him to believe that either he had achieved his goal of being the best fighter forever or that he would never be able to be the best, then it would probably destroy him.

Employment::
xxxxxTitle: The Blackguard.
Sounds grand, right? Onyx, the gemstone for which Onix is named, is black. Bel naturally also would want something intimidating.
xxxxxJob: Street thug for Spades. Enforcer, bodyguard, bouncer, muscular what-have-you. Generally provides the brawn and applies smack-downs as needed. Occasionally butles on the side, but Belial as a butler is pretty much a bull in a china shop.


Appearance::
xxxxxHair: Light grey, short to medium length. He has a perpetual cowlick/spike reminiscent of Onix's head fin.
xxxxxEyes: Dark grey, like the shadows on boulders.
xxxxxSkin tone: Pale peach.
xxxxxPalette: Either using an art reference, or some kind of palette site etc, or even linking to several colours on Wikipedia, please give us an idea of two or three colours likely to be preferred by the character. Their coloration will largely be based on the Pokemon they are based on, however.
xxxxxClothing: Biker clothes! Street chic! Think black leather jacket with colorful emblems and patches Bel made, solid color undershirt with random stitches, tight black pants. He loves spiked jewelry, especially bracelets.
xxxxxAdditional: A grin that is cocky as hell. ;D
