What are your answers?
1:Â That his paranoia has gotten the better of him and that he's truly gone insane. Â However, pointing that out to him might make you a target of his paranoia.
2:Â The kind of thing you have to get rid of it afterwards for...
3:Â Around his tribesmen, he's brotherly and caring. Â Around his non-tribal associates, he's cold but loyal. Â Around everyone else, he's suspicious and brutal.
4:Â Maybe, if he needed a public image boost, though most of the "charity" he does is just to make him more loved by the poor and clannish than the law is. Â It's all self-serving.
5:Â He'd kill them. Â And their friends, if he could. Â Most likely their families, if he could do that. Â He has to, people NEED to fear him.
6:Â Yes, unfortunately Orleans is both highly intelligent and constantly paranoid about what he isn't seeing.
7:Â I wouldn't say the fear of catching a knife in the back is irrational, though it might be in irrational places.
8:Â Orleans loved them. Â However, when he left home, he never saw them again. Â The tribe is his family now, and he'll die to protect them.
9:Â Every day breathing in Orleans' world is an achievement. Â Anything else is a bonus.
10:Â It's hard, sometimes, to know if Orleans even has emotions. Â Part of it is being guarded, part of it is being a bit of a sociopath.
11: In a way, he was.  At the time, he was high on psychedelics.  He felt good.
12:Â Security. Â Then again, he doesn't believe it really exists, so...
13:Â Vulnerability. Â You do something, you plan it out and you do it right.
14:Â His best friends are tribesmen. Â He smooths those out himself. Â That's part of his tribal duty.
15:Â Yes, in a bizarre way. Â Essentially, he doesn't believe in good people that actually do good things without people like him making it possible.
16:Â Unfortunately for society, yes. Â Orleans can make some very messed-up people feel very well-understood and respected.
17:Â Does splattering the wall with someone's innocent best friend in order to draw them out count as sociopathy?
18:Â Orleans completely, totally, and honestly believes that, to take care of people, only the nastiest people in the world can actually provide for their own. Â Say what you want about the murder described above, Orleans takes care of his tribe, his employees, and many of the downtrodden. Â He sees himself as a provider and a protector, in addition to a businessman.
19:Â When everything goes according to plan.
20:Â Probably, though he tries to keep this to a minimum (bad blood is part of the plan, and anything that isn't planned for is a liability).
21:Â He doesn't carry an axe for possible fire escape situations... hurting people is how you generate fear, take goods, and manage your business. Â Whether physically or emotionally, one needs to employ the right weapons.
22:Â Orleans shows some tribal brotherly respect and love, but he's a very stoic person. Â He's spent enough time using other people's loved ones against them to know better.
23:Â Yes... basically everything. Â To new people, he's just a businessman.
24:Â Generally, the person can look forward to being visited by death or misfortune, and quite possibly the group if they join in. Â If not right then and there, then certainly later.
25:Â After killing whomever is responsible, he would probably simply move on. Â His loved ones die all the time; the other Dancers are always looking for trouble and many pay the price.
26:Â The possibility that, one slip, and he could be dead, imprisoned, or on the run. Â Paranoia is a way of life.
27:Â Escapism is a good way to slip. Â Even playing the Gold Saucer games, he's constantly aware of what he's doing. Â He's making money the fun way, but he's not pretending he's someone or anywhere else.
28: Killed the guy on a street corner after school, at night, where there are no witnesses.
29:Â He tries to be diplomatic with his people, and he tends to be destructive to anyone else.
30:Â Try to tell him he's a bad person.
