Message: <blockquote data-quote="simmo" data-source="post: 1460814" data-attributes="member: 9744">Twenty Questions Andrew Rimilianote: these questions were answered by Jonathan who plays Andrew. The questions are a modified version of those found in the 7th Sea Players handbook by AEG1. What country/place is Andrew from?I'm not familiar enough with Planescape to give a specific place, but I know that Andrew was born and raised in a backwater area that had little, if any, knowledge and contact with the outside world(s).2. How would you physically describe Andrew?Andrew Rimilia is fairly tall, thin almost to the point of being lanky, and muscular in a wiry way. His features are sharp and angular, his face and nose are aquiline, giving him an odd quality that is neither asian nor eastern european, but (if he existed in our world) would hold qualities of both. His eyes are a pale, faded blue. His hair is black, long enough to be held with a leather band, and already beginning to show grey at the temples, despite his young age. He wears a long serape-type garment, and a cloak when travelling, under which he conceals a number of tools and hidden weapons.3. Does Andrew have any recurring mannerisms?Andrew is prone to using dry humor in the least appropriate situations. He also has a tendency to clam up and refuse to be moved or show emotion during highly emotional situations.4. What is your Andrew's main motivation?Andrew's main motivation is to carve out a place for himself in the wide world. He wants the respect of his contemporaries AND his enemies (though he will usually settle for fear instead), and he wants to be recognized as a force to be reckoned with in his areas of speciality. Some day, he'd like to settle down and open a tavern.5. What is Andrew's greatest strength? Greatest weakness?Andrew's greatest strength is his adaptability. You can shock him, you can stun him, you can hurt him, but he WILL eventually come back, usually with a vengeance. No matter what happens (short of death), he can survive it with life and sanity intact. Andrew's greatest weakness is his inability to let himself feel anything strongly for other people (except his brother) and his lack of empathy.6. What are Andrew's most and least favourite things?Andrew's favorite thing in the known multiverse to do is sit atop the mountain in the cool of the morning, smoking a pipe and watching the sun rise. His second-favorite thing to do is go out on jobs for the Indeps, and for anyone else whose cause he feels is worthy (and worthwhile). In this sense, he is a romantic, though he'd never admit it. His least favorite thing in the known multiverse to do is to be tortured.7. What about Andrew's psychology? (i.e demeanor, mentality)Andrew is, above all other things, a survivor. He will do whatever it takes to get through. Cut off his legs, and he would tie off the wounds and try to crawl to a healer. No matter what happens, he will keep going, or die trying. Outwardly, he projects a demeanor of neutrality and casual interest that has fooled a number of people. In fact, he believes the work he does is for the greater good, if not necessarily the greater good any given government believes in.8. What is Andrew's single greatest fear?Andrew's single greatest fear is that he will somehow be remembered as a coward, a weakling, and a fool. His second-greatest fear is his brother.9. What are Andrew's highest ambitions? Her greatest love?If the world were to turn his way, Andrew would ultimately earn a place of great respect amongst rogues and Indeps the multiverse over, open a successful bar in which he would still have the opportunity to break up a barfight or two every night (so as not to get bored), find immortality, and adventure down through the ages, until the end of the universe. Andrew's greatest love is, at this time, given to his brother, Saros.10. What is Andrew's opinion of Sigil?Andrew likes Sigil. He likes anywhere that is complicated, and busy, and full of conflict, because it gives people like him ample room to maneuver (and often make a profit from it).11. Does Andrew have any prejudices?Andrew is not prejudiced against any group of race in particular, however, he will take up arms against anyone who makes a serious attempt to kill his brother without a second thought.12. Where do Andrew's loyalties lie?Andrew's loyalties lie in doing the right thing- which he does believe in, and very strongly- regardless of what the law might have to say about it. He is also fiercely loyal to his brother Saros, though this has caused him endless amounts of trouble.13. Is Andrew in love? Is he married or betrothed?Andrew is not in love with, in a relationship with, or even really close to (in that way) anyone else, at present. This is not to say that he never will be, but he's not a very approachable person.14. What about Andrew's family?Ah, family. Andrew's parents are dead. His only living relative is his brother. His brother is, to put it nicely, a cold-blooded killer. Saros Rimilia is an assassin, and a good one at that. Andrew can tell that Saros is good at his job for two reasons: 1) He is still alive, and 2) Very few people know who Saros is. Andrew is fiercely loyal to and defensive of his brother, despite this, and the feeling is reciprocated. Saros himself is a very distant, cold, emotionless person. He is smaller than his brother, gaunt, and posessed of the same black hair and- if anything- even sharper features. His eyes are also colored a strange and unnatural amber.15. How would Andrew's parents describe him?Andrew's parents, who died when he was roughly twelve years old, would probably be shocked all to hell and back by who he is now. His parents were subsistence farmers, and not very well-versed on anything that existed beyond the local general store.16. Is Andrew a gentleman?Yes and no. Andrew is very polite and respectful to those people he feels are deserving of respect, but he doesn't give a damn about honorifics (Lord, Lady, Sir, etc.) and he will say EXACTLY what he thinks about a person, to their face. Royalty does not impress him, neither do people with a great deal of money.17. How religious is Andrew? What church do they follow?In the traditional sense, Andrew is not very religious. He knows the gods are out there, and he respects them, but he feels no particular desire to worship them. He would stand before the gods, and speak his mind, rather than kneel or cower in worship. He doesn't attend churches, and believes organized religion is a mistake.18. Is Andrew a member of a church, guild and/or faction?Andrew is an Indep, and proud of it.19. What does Andrew think of psionics and magic?Andrew is intrigued by magic, and would like to learn more about it, but at the same time it worries him, because it is not something he can easily defend against. He is of the opinion that most people who wield magic are gits, not because they wield magic, but because most of the magic-users he's ever met happen to be gits. He doesn't know enough about psionics to form an opinion.20. If you could, what advice would you give Andrew?There's nothing that springs to mind, really.</blockquote>
