A'rklonn is simultaneously moderately refined and an angry bastard. He grew up quite poor, and made good for himself with various Aether breakthroughs in his magic synergy studies as well as trading (*cough, smuggling*) various relics and artifacts from digs he's conned or bought his way into. He tries to be refined and philosophical and even succeeds..but when he gets angry, that orphanage kid comes out and he sounds like someone you'd expect to hear in a back alley tavern. So cross-culture characters can be such a way as well. They can keep up a trained mask because they eased into a type of culture, but you can't take the street rat or soldier out of them in the end. A'rk's the type to actually say things like great philosophers would to teach a grand lesson, but internally he's just like. 'Fuck it'.
