[ Personality ] :
General Alister Azimuth had been a mischevious child at one point in his life, having grown up the way he had. And even in his elder years, this hasn't changed. Once you really break through the 'hardened general' guise, one can see that Alister can be a friendly, outgoing companion. While he might not be as spry as he had been in his younger years, it's just in his nature to go out and have a good time, making an adventure out of everything, even unintentionally.
But this isn't without faults, as he's had a lot happen in his long life.
Let's start at the root.
Yes, he is a strong, loyal companion to have most of the time. Although, at the same time, Alister can be... paranoid, and a little defensive. In fact, there are quite a few times where he shifts between 'best pal' and 'maybe I should watch my tongue'. Because you don't talk about his personal life - or more so, the events on Fastoon. He's watched his entire species fall from his own fault, assumed his best friend's son to be dead and watched said friend's death. On the run for a good twenty years, Alister's solitude and guilt ate away at him in that time, but he's also made a resolution to himself - nobody would cross him like that ever again.
And he certainly wouldn't allow a disaster like that to happen again. No matter what.
At heart, Alister is a rebel. He's labeled as one, and he'll act like one, evading Nefarious' forces for as long as he's had, and taking them out with the needed brutality. Stubborn as a brick wall and defiant, he'll stand his ground, physically and metaphorically, fighting for what he thinks is right. And at times, it's only what he thinks is right. This could have a very skewed and disjointed view, and even insane at times. Whatever it takes to get the job done, and Alister takes his job very seriously.
Speaking of 'jobs', Alister finds time to focus his mind with projects on the side, making him something of a workaholic. Sometimes the work and the exercise interwine with each other, causing him to keep fit because of it. Keeping his base secure, getting out and causing trouble while also trying to learn as much as possible for anything he needs to do. He spent twenty years doing so, and these habits won't be broken easily.
Barring the negatives, Alister can also be extremely protective of those he considers his kin, even at the risk of his own well-being. When he has something to protect, a better purpose than he'd been living, he takes it in. Encompasses it, holds it to his being because that is what he needs to do. This, in turn, makes him a little obsessive, though it works in favour when the situation calls for it.
[ Strengths/Weaknesses ] :
Alister was once the General of the Lombax Praetorian Guard, so combat just comes naturally. And even with his years of solitude, he hasn't allowed himself to slow down in the slightest.
Combined with the natural Lombax agility, Alister can leap giant chasms without breaking a sweat, swiftly dodge enemy fire, and easily take out an armoured tank all on his own. And while he does focus on pure brute strength, Alister also has the assistance of the Praetorian Omniwrench, capable of firing off enormous bursts of energy, and his arsenal of mines and bombs.
There are times, however, when Alister will think more with actions rather than his head.
He will act on sheer impulse, which could be helpful in the field, but also extremely deadly. If pushed enough, he could turn on the very people fighting by his side, making him mentally and emotionally unstable. Fight with him, but take caution.
You could be on the recieving end of that deadly wrench.
[ Other Important Facts ] : Nnnone that I can think of?
[ Sample ] :
- What is this? Is that rain? How nice-- wait a minute, is it raining rubber duckies? Seriously?
[For the past few days, Alister's been at work. With what, you say? Well... how about attempting to determine just how it is that a coral, of all things, would be able to recieve and transmit transmissions in the middle of an underwater station.
He keeps the device turned on, a thoughtful hand on a bearded chin, before the light thump of something on his window quickly garters the old Lombax's attention.]
What in the name of...?
[Giving a wary eye to the device, he sits up out of his seat, gathering up the Praetorian Omniwrench resting next to the table and pushing the front door open, wincing when something bounces off his furry head with a squeak! He's able to pick it up, give the object a confused glance before another comes down. And another.
Gasping in surprise, the Lombax backpedals into the house, staring completely dumbfounded at the sight before him.
As if the notion of a coral as a communications device wasn't bad enough, it was now raining rubber ducks.
His eyes turn back to the feed, a questioning brow raised.]
I had that coming, hadn't I?
[Closing the door behind him, the General moves back to his seat, laying back straight and resting the Wrench beside him once more, his visage blank and unmoveable.]
Can I get a wager of how long this should last? I do have errands to run, and I'd rather not break down my front door trying to leave.
Also a musebox thread with Ratchet.
