Name: Silos
Nicknames: N/A (But he's totally game!)
Breed: Ragdoll
Attached to: No one yet
Alignment: Order (Senshi)
Blood Type: B
Fav. Food: Spicy food. The spicier, the better; he's known for making his food unbearably hot, to the point it doesn't even taste like the food anymore. That aside, he seems to enjoy meat, amusingly enough though, he likes it well cooked. He also has a bit of a sweet tooth.
Hated Food: Salad. If you eat salad, you're a damned rabbit, as far as he's concerned. Ugh. It's bland and it's.... bland, geez. He doesn't mind human pet treats, but keep the cheap stuff away from him or lose a finger.
Hobbies:
* Music -- For a cat... Silos sure does love music. He loves it in all it's shapes and forms, though he seems to tend to prefer the more obnoxious kind. The louder and stupider the music, the better. But this is mostly because he likes getting a reaction out of people (and not particularly good ones, to boot). Despite liking music, he's not particularly well versed in the art; He can't play musical instruments as a cat (and would probably suck at it in his human form). His voice is average, and while he can have his fun at it, he's clearly an amateur. They say that music can tame the beast and in his case it's true, though it can work like a double edged sword, for it can both sooth him and excite him depending on the type (and no one enjoys an obnoxious, hyperactive kitty cat that could possibly wreck your apartment in no time flat!).
* Flirting -- Is it alive? Is it sentient? Can it engage in verbal banter with him? Yes? He'll hit that. It doesn't matter if it's mauvian, human, male, or female (why ignore 50% of the population?)! He doesn't even seem to care about alignment! Anyone will do - he'll hit it (or try to) and will enjoy every minute of it. It won't quite matter if he's successful or not. More often than not, he's not and it doesn't seem to deter him in the least; he's half in it for the banter anyhow, and if you give him something to chew on, he'll come back for more. He's not the type to take a step further than that (specially not if it's not desired), but there's no denying he seems to enjoy riling up people - if he can do it while flirting with the subject matter well then, that's just a bonus.
* Debating -- Verbal banter? Yes please! He will go as far as taking on sides he doesn't believe in, for the sake of an argument, specially if he knows he's ruffling feathers in the process. He can bullshit and argue any point straight down to the core of earth if given half the chance, and not only seems to enjoy it, but doesn't particularly get upset or ruffled in any way if he's beaten at his own game. This just means he's found a sparring partner! PRAISE!
Virtues:
Laid back -- To say that Silos is laid back is almost an understatement; he's rather easy to get along with. If left to his own devices, he might try to make a friend out of a rock. He forgives easily and lets people make mistakes, though on the other hand, he seems to expect people to have the same patience with him, as he has with them, and having such expectations often times gets him in trouble. He enjoys life as if it were a game, living each day as if it were his very last on earth and not everyone seems to appreciate this. He doesn't take life very seriously and is often time confused as to how or why everyone around him seems so stressed out. Despite that, you can at least bet that if you're upset, he'll try to cheer you up; in his... own strange way (which you might, or might not appreciate - likely the later usually, unfortunately).
Passionate -- Silos takes passion almost to a fault. It doesn't matter what he's doing; he's putting his heart into it. It won't make a difference if it's fighting a battle, or simply taking that piece of paper from point A to point B. While this means that he won't likely leave things half done, and that he sees things to the end... it also means that he might come off as over the top. If he's fighting, he's laughing maniacally while doing so. If he's running an errand, he rushing from point A to point B and often doesn't realize he's run a poor old lady over in the process. It doesn't always affect things, but it can mean trouble from time to time. It also means that he's a single minded, one idea sort of creature, and if he can't manage something, he'll try and try again (he's bound to succeed at the 100th try, right?), which makes him forget that perhaps, just perhaps, that one simple task isn't as important as getting back on track with whatever it is... he was supposed to do after that one task. He tries though - points for trying.
Knight in shinning armor -- Well, maybe not a knight, and maybe not armor precisely, but still, for all effects and purposes, it's the same deal, even if he just so happens to resemble more of a pirate than he ever will a knight. The base idea is the same; for all his talk and all his attitude, Silos can't seem to ignore people that are in trouble. Especially not if they are interesting, pretty or defenseless, and he has been known for rushing straight into trouble, at the cost of his own well being, even when he knows it's a fight he can't win (This is the body of a TIGER, baby!). It's something he can't help but do, and no amount of failure seems to dissuade him. It doesn't necessarily have to be a fight either; any little thing will do, and despite the fact he seems to enjoy riling others up, he can't seem to handle tears all that well, and goes out of his way to avoid them, even if he's not the cause of them.
Always a second chance -- For all his talk, for all his chaotic ways and need to ruffle feathers... Silos is a firm believer of redemption and second chances. Everyone deserves at least a second chance, and in some cases, even a third, depending on circumstance. It takes a lot for him to write of someone as impossible, and this often time means he's willing to give people a chance when most would have walked away. It's not that he's naive, or that he sees the world through rose colored glasses; he's just open to change, and seems to think that there's usually at least a seed of good in just about everyone.
Flaws:
Lazy -- Don't expect him to actually do things when you ask them of him. He would much rather lay around, humming to himself than actually do any sort of physical labor. He has the tendency of leaving things for the very last minute and will often procrastinate as long as he possibly can. What do you mean you needed that for yesterday? He'll... uh... make up for that. Somehow. Oops. When you've asked him to do something trivial, it's not that bad, but when something really important needs to get down and he's decided it's 'work' and he would rather cat nap on that field over there, it tends to get obnoxious and lands him in more trouble than actually doing the simple task might've been. He doesn't seem to learn however, and falls into the tendency quite often.
Irresponsible/Uncommitted -- He likes you, and he's loyal to you, in his own way. Just don't expect him to either admit to this, or move forward from there. He's eternally stuck in the 'just friends' or 'just acquaintances' or even the 'friends with benefits' mindset and it might take a minor miracle for him to move past that, usually achieved through self reflection (which he seems to avoid like the plague). He doesn't enjoy being tied down in any sort of way, is leery of it and is extremely out of his element in deeper, emotional situations or relationships. It's not that he's an instant gratification sort of guy (even though he is rather a fan of it), but... investing his time and himself on anyone beyond friendship will require great effort on his part. He might technically be doing it without realizing it, but if it's brought up and into perspective, he'll pull away. It stems from the fact that he doesn't really trust most people not to hurt him. At least not outside of a 'Doing this with someone for fun!'. Not even a tiny little bit, and while he's cool with someone (anyone), he's not expecting much out of them in the long run. No one's invested themselves into him yet, so why should he?
Easily distracted -- Silos is a good fighter (for his size and strength, anyways); he can handle himself in direct, close combat, and knows how to use his magic when it's needed. He's resourceful, intelligent, and will make a weapon out of a toothpick if that's what's laying around but... all that goes to waste when the enemy points behind him and goes "Look there!" and he turns around to check it out. His level of concentration and attention span are next to nil, and he'll often time find his mind wandering at the worst of moments (middle of talks, middle of fights, etc). Music also has a similar effect on him; he can quite literally be stopped mid-rampage with soothing music and he'll pretty much drop down, as if drugged. Granted, loud, excitable music has the opposite effect, but still.
Loose morals -- If he doesn't like you... you are expendable. It's as simple as that. Don't expect him to be a good party member to you; if the party must sacrifice someone, he'll happily offer you up for the procedure, no questions asked. Granted, it tends to take a while to get him to dislike someone, given he seems to be a fan of second chances but... if you ruin things with him, winning him back is near impossible. A 'do not enter' sign often times means quite the opposite for him, and at the end of the day, he won't hesitate to cause chaos and damage if it means he and his allies come out of it alive and Order wins. What's a little chaos if the good guys WIN? Breaking some eggs to make an omelet is just fine with him; he has no idea why people keep looking at him funny when he says that.
Challenge: Arr, matey!
