Though handsome, he rarely leaves a lasting impression and the one thing most people seem remember are his eyes. Normally almost colour-less, they sometimes change to reflect his present  inner state of mind. (Apparently, his eyes vividly reflect some enormous fire while brooding.)Personality:The vain youth of his past is long gone and has left a brooding ‘old man’ in his stead. Lacking any definite goals, Allick has been drifting aimlessly through New America. Unconsciously however, he still adheres to the ‘Glitter Boy hero code’ (if updated for the modern times) and has been searching for a cause to take up. So far, nothing has managed to touch this hidden facet and it might very well be that Allick Vilde will someday vanish, only to reappear in some frontier tales telling of a mysterious drifter.Due to the intense training his father put him through, Allick has little to none skills outside of the area of combat. The one notable exception is his knowledge of the actually history of Glitter Boys and Chromium Guardsmen. Still a young man in NEMA service when the Rifts came, Tonas Vilde lived on for over one hundred years after the cataclysm and thus managed to impart much of the actual history behind his kind to his heir. This knowledge had been carefully preserved and passed on in the Vilde lineThough once merely something seen as a means to ‘shape up’, his fitness and combat training has since taken a far more dedicated role. While he can’t cut certain memories out of his mind, the physical exercises at least allow him to push them back for the moment.Background: Allik has the rare and dubious honor of having it made twice onto the CS’ death list, once for being a D-Bee and once for being a Glitter Boy. The story behind this strange occurrence goes thus:When the Glitter Boy Rago Vilde, descendent of the original Chromium Guardsman Tonas Vilde, came across the remnants of a caravan destroyed by raiders during one his patrols, he never expected to discover a survivor in that carnage. Much to his surprise he nevertheless found an elven baby hidden beneath one of the wrecks and brought it  with him back to his home, a small wilderness settlement called Sarnath. Since he had no children on his own, Rago took the little boy in and raised him to one day inherit to proud tradition of the Glitter Boys. Unfortunately, that day came far earlier than expected by either of them when Rago suffered a debilitating injury in a freak accident that left him unable to take the Glitter Boy into combat. Thus Allik began his training long before reaching adulthood, resulting in two things: an extremely able Glitter Boy pilot and a vastly overblown ego. Allik had grown up to be very handsome but unfortunately the real person behind the good looks was rather shallow. Always vain, he came to believe that the hero worship of Sarnath’s citizens was not directed at the suit of power armor but at himself, the ‘real hero’.  Though his father and he bumped heads over this again and again, it still might have found a better end if not for ‘The Doom that came to Sarnath’.A band of raiders flying a winged skull as their emblem came to Sarnath one day and found the town to be an esay picking as its ‘Great Defender’ never arrived to hinder them. Allik was engaged in ‘other activities’ with his current favorite Larielle while supposedly on patrol. Though the town called for this help, somehow their cry for help never reached him. Meanwhile, angered by the militia’s continued resistance, the bandits decided to show Sarnath the price of this folly by ruthlessly taking town apart piece by peace. At least this was the plan, but it quickly evaporated as did one of their armored vehicles, seconds before the sonic boom hit them. The sight they turned to was one few people had ever witnessed, the charge of an enraged Glitter Boy. Foregoing further use of his boom gun Allik engaged the raiders in hand-to-hand combat, almost mad in his grief. Though this might have been a poor tactical choice, the raiders’ ill-repaired armor and over-reliance on cheap laser weaponry allowed Allik to easily through their numbers, punching, kicking and ripping some of the bandits apart. Their one suit of power armor proved to be nothing more than a slight bump in his path. Unfortunately, a stray shot fired by someone in this chaotic fight managed to ignite one of the sources of Sarnath’s power supply, an old depot for fossil fuel. Out of the sea of flames that wiped “Sarnath, Population: 801” off the earth, only the Glitter Boy emerged.Since he could hardly bear to face the only two survivors, Larielle and Sarnath’s resident (minor) Techno-Wizard Gentan, Allik simply stomped off into the sunset.Since then, Allik has traveled all over New America, sometimes as the Lone Hero, appearing out of nowhere, sometimes as a mercenary , checking his pay before doing anything. Though he initially vowed to track the winged-skull-emblem down, this quest became les and less important over the years. His idea of joining up with Free Quebec was also squashed when he realized that there are still some depths he refuses to sink to, even after his ‘fall’.[/SBLOCK]</blockquote>
