Erk Reglay

Name: Geoff
Personal LJ: [livejournal.com profile] drcanadianninja
Contact Info: It's all over the mod contact page.

Character Name: Erk Reglay
Character Series: Fire Emblem (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Fire_Emblem:_Rekka_no_Ken)
Background: Erk Reglay (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Erk)

Personality: If anything describes Erk, it's studious. He could spend days inside the library if given the option. His studies are the most important thing in the world to him, and he has a tendency to get irritable when people distract or attempt to separate him from them.

He prides himself on his achievements, caring little if someone is better than him or not as long as he meets his own goals. Failures hit him harder than most people, even when it isn't specifically his fault. He blames himself and gets into a minor rut when this happens. Compliments, on the other hand, make him nervous, and typically get buried under modesty. Erk has a difficult time accepting positive feelings of any greater magnitude than acquaintanceship; it takes him years for him to admit that he cares for his adoptive family. He doesn't open up easily.

Erk's got an independent streak a mile wide. He rarely asks for help and when he does, it's in a convoluted and indirect manner. While he may accept help offered (don't expect him to ask for it) accepting anyone for reasons beyond practicality can be difficult. That's not to say he abhors companionship, though. As he grows closer to people, willingly or unwillingly, he begins to show genuine concern for them and is visibly bothered when he finds he cannot help him.

Due to his time with Serra, he is willing to do most anything one would ask of him, and if he considers the person a friend, he will likely suggest any of the various things he can do to help. He's actually quite adept at taking care of others. Taking care of himself, however, is another matter. Erk has a tremendous level of focus and consequently forgets simple things at times, like getting to bed at reasonable hours or, say, eating.

Erk has a pretty serious fear of affection. When receiving a compliment, for example, he freezes up, entirely unsure how to react. Similarly, telling people that he cares about them is a tall order - it took three years for him just to say as much to his very kind and loving adopted family. This spreads to physical contact as well. If he's not alright with it, any form of contact will likely make him recoil like a snake just bit him.

Sample Entry: Erk's first day in Sirocco had been something of a disaster, and he was feeling more and more alien and unwelcome the longer he stayed. Sure, he arrived with amnesia, but nearly assaulting the people who were only trying to help him? Hours later, he was still beating himself up over that. Then there was the Ermis, in which he attempted to pull open the door to the elevator until someone laughed and pushed the button for him. He tried to leave, only to be nearly run over by the metal horses roaming the streets.

The area was unfamiliar and the technology was far beyond his grasp. But then, when all seemed lost, a beacon of hope in the form of a large banner hanging from a streetlight called out to his eyes. Here was a place you belong! Here is a place you can feel safe!

And that's how Erk found himself in the Sirocco Public Library.
