Welcome to Gaia! ::

Virtues:

I like to move it - An incredibly physical and kinetic person, Warwick takes easily to athletic endeavors, especially those that involve dexterity and control over his own body. Add to this around fifteen years of acrobatic training and he is a very graceful person, confident in his movements. He is agile and fit, quickly picks up new athletic skills, and makes use of these to earn his living.

Never a bad word - Warwick has a good attitude that is frequently tempered ever further with liberal amounts of decriminalized drugs. The result is someone cheerfully [and somewhat obnoxiously, at times] optimistic. Bright and energetic, he is almost constantly working to bring the people around him to the same state, and is always willing to lend a hand to someone who's sad or down. Breaking his happy bubble takes a serious effort, and Warwick's own low points are usually brief and quickly forgotten before he moves on.

The Golden rule - While he may not believe strongly in the importance of specific laws, or in the value of authority, Warwick's moral compass is extremely strong. There is good: helping other people, being friendly, sharing when you can. There is bad: hurting other people, taking advantage of the weak, stealing. His credo boils down to 'if you're doing damage, don't do it', and he sticks strongly to this.

Yes, yes, yes, and yes - If you're looking for someone willing to go jogging with you, that's Warwick. If you're looking for someone to go see a movie, or go out to dinner, or try octopus for the first time, or juggle live kittens, he's probably down for that too. Warwick always wants to be doing something, and he frequently doesn't care what that thing is, so long as it's entertaining. He's not intimidated by the strange, and is in fact rather drawn in by new experiences. He's travelled extensively, and will likely travel again at some point, but for now, he'll take the small adventures he can get.

Flaws:

Just can't sit still - A passion for movement and adventure comes with a serious downside: Warwick finds it very difficult to sit still and focus for any reasonable length of time. His attention span is more or less non-existent; unless a movie is thoroughly engrossing, he has a hard time focusing on it for the full length, and is more likely to step in and out of it and do other things. Intense conversations make him fidget and bounce, easily drawn away by the smallest of distractions. This makes him terrible at information gathering, at book learning, reading or writing or teaching.

First rate sucker - Warwick's struggle to make the people around him happy is a knee-jerk reaction, stretches him thin, and is easy to take advantage of. He is somewhat blinded to the fact that not everyone is a good person, and not everyone is being honest. He starts out with trust instead of distrust, making him gullible and easy to draw into traps, and it takes a considerable amount to slam it home that someone has gone bad.

I'll handle it tomorrow - Disorganized as he is, small things tend to slip through the cracks in Warwick's life. He is irresponsible, and frequently things that should be important get filtered to the back of his mind and forgotten, or put off until some non-existent time in the future when he's planning on taking care of them. Naturally, then they come around to kick him in the balls. Oops, he was supposed to get a permit before performing in the park. Oops, he forgot to get his license renewed. Oops, he only has ten bucks in his wallet and can't afford that round of drinks he just ordered.

Why so serious? - or not, in this case. Warwick has a very, very hard time having serious conversations or dealing with serious problems, and never seems to realize when it's a bad time for a joke. For him, laughter solves problems, and he's a firm believer in hoisting yourself up by your bootstraps and forcing good humor. He can't quite get a handle on real problems, and offers short-term consolation instead of long-term solutions. Frequently this means that he makes problems worse instead of better, and ends up sticking his foot in it.

Knight concept!

Weapon --

Page - A small ring, carved with runes. It could be used to block attacks, maybe, if wielded effectively, but not much else.

Squire - Now, it's roughly hula hoop sized -- just large enough to encircle a single person. In battle, he can toss this around someone and put them in a ring of protection that prevents anything from entering or leaving the circle. This includes the person he's protecting and everything they carry with them, meaning that they can't attack from within the circle any more than someone outside can attack them.

So long as he stays near the ring, around arm's reach, he can hold this protection for a good minute. If he moves away from it, the time is decreased significantly.

Knight - His ring is large enough for two, now, meaning that a second person could be protected within its confines. This would give an opportunity for them to administer quick first aid or catch their breaths in the midst of a battle. He could also join an ally within its bounds, but doing so leaves him tired and drained when the protection goes down again.
