Personality

 

Ashram tends to be a quiet observer of people. Often watching someone for a long time before he will try to make conversation. He tends to speak with a polite manner during friendly times but during stressful times, he can revert to a gruff, foul mouthed ball of anger.  He is slow to open up to others, most times questions about his past will be brushed off quickly. He seems to always be keeping something hidden and covers it up with quick jokes and moving the subject back to others.

 

He hates to be as he calls it “all dolled up” and avoids fancy dress clothes. Worn boots and dirt covered armor are his preferred dress. He tends to prefer the wide-open spaces of the wilderness to the cities but tries to come to them to try and get a better understanding of how people are. He hates people that wont pull their weight and is quick to move on when something is annoying him.

When it comes to others, he prefers to keep men at arm’s length as much as possible. He would say they should be at (blades length). He has a distrust of males in general but isn’t opposed to working with them or talking to them when needed. As for females, Ashram can be very flirty and playful. He gets distracted quickly by revealing outfits and is one who isn’t opposed to a fun time.
