[/B]Pragmatic, intelligent, open-minded. Follows a strong moral compass (but not necessarily one set by society or tradition). He is comfortable being a leader, but doesn't normally force anyone to obey orders unquestioned, relying more on guiding and encouraging the course of actions that leads towards his chosen goal. He is good at diplomacy but not by the way of flattery or coercion but by conviction and logic. The development has been mainly in the way of self-reflection and realization of his abilities and the role he can play in the events.

So perhaps he has become bolder, and at the same time shed some of the misguided idealism. [B]Role within the unit. What's your specialty?[/B] He is the leader of the unit, but not a dictator. He has enough confidence and trust in his people, to let them handle most situations as they see fit. He sees his role in setting the goals, and providing overall guidance. He prefers to let his men propose and discuss the possible courses of action, and then make the final decision. He also feels responsibility for them and is ready to do whatever is necessary to help if the need arises. [B]Outline your relationship with other unit members.[/B] His unit is a lot like his family. He is a mentor to all except Malthusius, who is a friend and sometimes a mentor himself. [B]What is your biggest achievement to date?[/B] Everyone is still alive (meaning not only the unit but also the people of Flint who are under his protection). There have been losses of course, which is unavoidable in war, but overall he has been able to ensure the safety of those in his charge. Which is pretty much the main point of his life. ([B]DM's Note: [/B]Everyone apart from the dead people, that is.) [B]What event in the campaign has had the most impact on your character?[/B] Maybe the trial in the Vault. Which may not be such a big deal in the scope of things but it was a tipping point at which Korrigan realised that he should take his fate in his own hands and do what he thinks is right no matter what. [B]Do you have a treasured possession and, if so, what is it? [/B]Possessions are simple means to an end. They are tools, and if a tool is lost another can be aquired. [B]Describe your favourite moment(s) from the campaign so far.[/B] I like the campaign in general, so I can name the least favorite instead which is Korrigan's personal story about his wife and child.
