## Personality

Despite being perceived as a nuisance and treated as an outcast, Ion often doesn't care what others think of him and does whatever he feels like at the moment. Being mostly robot, his free will is a bit of an unheard of concept to some, though not enough of an issue to be taken note of, though it is remarkable, as robots having true free will is an extremely difficult concept to grasp, even in Ion's world. Though this is somewhat of a fallacy, as Ion simply has a unique brain design and structure, able to perform computer level calculations while still maintaining his humanity.

Ion has witnessed countless traumatic events in his lifetime and even as he currently lives as his world can be brutal and cruel at times, especially to a youngster like Ion. Though, his ability to shut off his emotions at will often keeps these scars buried deep, this was, by design, for Ion to be able to maintain a clear and calm mindset in extremely dangerous, serious or life threatening situations. Though, due to the humanity left in Ion's design, he does have a breaking point as to how long he can keep his emotions shut off, this causes his emotions reveal themselves as extreme outbursts, either positive or negative (yes he can even be 'too happy' or 'too excited') due to this he feels his emotions intensely and strongly at his breaking point, unable to bottle them anymore.

Due to this, Ion is often in an aloof or uncaring state, making it seem like he is headstrong and standoffish, he may also come off as aggressive to some as he does not often like new company or strangers. This in turn, makes his friend group fairly small, as he's seen as weird, eccentric, or even flat out crazy.

Ion's emotions at there worst can go as far as suicidal feelings (going as far as to attempt it) or depression, as shown in his childhood in which his design was still majorly incomplete as he was essentially left to die.

Ion shows extreme intellect, creativity, wit and bravery, out of a genuine desire to learn, face challenges, and outsmart his way out of even the most dangerous of situations. Ion's bravery goes as far as to being shown in his design, as he has big eyes and never blinks, showing his unflinching nature and will to stare down problems, though this can be a detriment to him too as his bravery can fall into stupidity or straight up insanity, going as far as to be willing to blow himself up without fear as a last resort.

His unique brain structure gives him extremely high fluid intelligence and strong crystallized intelligence, able to learn all kinds of information in seconds, though this doesn't necessarily translate to skills as Ion is specialized for combat and general intelligence, learning skills such as cooking would be difficult for Ion. He also presents himself as a genuinely inventive, creative and innovative person, as he can come up with unique ideas that sound straight up insane or alien and bring them to life. This combined with his robotic body could lead to some extremely dangerous if not *disastrous* enhancements if Ion so pleased to do so, which he has on occasion, though keeping the designs simple and relatively small scale.

Even with all this, Ion's strongest trait seems to be his desire to rebel. While to some it comes off as attention seeking or simple angst (as Ion appears to be young and is), he does it to show he can do what he wants to distinguish himself from other robotic entities. While he does rebel, he does show that he will hold back this desire if he perceives it as unhelpful to a situation, though it is mostly a recurring gag rather than a serious character trait.

While he often ignores other people and does his own thing, he does show extreme appreciations and care for those who do consider him friend or even moreso family, as Ion has been very lonely for most of his life, being one of his most bottled up emotions. To his friends Ion shows trust, care and understanding, showing to not be very judgemental and more accepting of them moreso than he would others. Despite being perceived as socially inept, unfriendly and crazy, Ion proves that he is able to truly show love and care to people.
