Character Traits:

Alliance Country Supporter

Although born in the Sea Blue Republic, Winters was educated in The Federated Provinces Republic from a young age and has been deeply influenced by Alliance Country ideals, agreeing that the Alliance government should have more power.

(So is he a patriot or a traitor?)

————————

Genetics of Venetian People

Fierceness is etched into the DNA of Venetian people.

(Stop carving everything into DNA, you bastard!)

————————

Respect for Professional Knowledge and Skills

Winters respects people who have professional knowledge and skills, such as mathematicians or swordsmiths.

(You can do what I cannot.)

————————

Atheist

Spellcasters' powers come from their understanding of the laws of everything, and Winters doesn't believe in the existence of deities.

(Listen up, I'm too lazy to educate you on atheism, and don't you try to push your religious beliefs on me.)

————————

Lawful Good

Winters is willing to do good deeds, but his military academy education also taught him to respect order.

(It's good to thrust a sword into a bad guy's mouth, but I'd prefer if the judge gave the go-ahead first.)

————————

Boys' Club

Winters spent ten years in an all-boys boarding school, and he's very skilled at getting along with males, but relatively poor at dealing with females.

(What kind of school is this! You have really done some damage here!)

————————

Carefree

Winters, naturally lively, even in the darkest and most tragic circumstances, likes to joke and the uncertainty of life, favoring those with a sense of humor.

(Specifically manifests as an uncontrollable desire to make snarky comments)

————————

The World is a Shoddy Performance

Winters thinks the whole world is a shoddy performance, a world competing to be worse, not better.

(It doesn't matter how miserable I am, as long as my enemies are more miserable than me.)

————————

Loves Animals

If heaven doesn't have cats, then I'd like to go to a place that does.

(Of course, it would be even better if they didn't shed.)

———————————————————————————

Not Very Rigorous Character Attributes: (Added points according to PE rules, plus the skill points provided by character background)

Strength 12 (Base 11 +1 from military academy background) (Winters loves to sleep and avoids all unnecessary physical labor)

Constitution 13 (Base 12 +1 from military academy background) (A constitution of 13 means less likely to fall ill)

Agility 14 (Base 13 +1 from swordsmanship training) (Agility without strength is meaningless, except for running away.)

Perception 15 (Base 13 +2 from spellcaster training) (Intuition is the thing that's most accurate after the fact.)

Intelligence 18 (Base 16 +2 from spellcaster training) (Do you think my extra sleep was for nothing?)

Determination 14 (Base 13 +1 from Enlightenment beliefs) (Is 14 points of determination really that much?)
