Oh, I also meant to say this: [quote=Draconilian] I can understand your character and his personality and motivations and etc. [/quote] No. No you can't. And that's exactly how I want it. =) My big thing with characters is layering: masks on top of masks to hide their true selves. Then I leave it for the other players to unravel. Is Alex just a power-hungry jerk that thinks no more of other trainers than of insects? Maybe. Or maybe there's more to him. I leave it to you to find out.
