## Personality

> *"В тихой лагуне обитают черти. Доверие в глазах смотрящего [In a quiet lagoon, devils dwell. Trust is in the eye of the beholder]."*
>
>
> Javelin is a uncaring, practical, selfish and prideful man who views his life and the life of others almost like that of a business; You fail, or you succeed, to be an independent from life is not living. The good things in life that you take for granted will fail you one way or the other.
>
>
> Unlike his E1.2 Counterpart, Javelin stayed and made a proficient carrier as a mercenary assassin, while Lance only stayed for a short while as a contractor. Javelin favors every blood-soaked penny and nickel he makes, and especially the betrayal of former comrades to get it. Javelin trusts almost no one but himself; He gains trust of others, others do not gain trust from him.
>
>
> Javelin is a pathological liar — a natural arbiter of deceit. He will lure those he surrounds himself with into a false sense of safety and comradery, waiting for the minute he will gain any significant benefit to the betrayal of those who rely on him, let alone trust him. Javelin finds pleasure in making others ignorant and oblivious while he gatekeeps the truth for himself. He is a conniving, backstabbing manipulator who instinctively keeps up a charade for the off chance it could provide him an advantage. He is in one way or another the puppeteer of any problem or conflict he faces, if he faces an inconvenience he can easily dispel any dominant trouble it gives him, only allowing it to persist if it has any foreseen interest and reward. He makes his own enemies, using them like marionettes on strings. the only true adversary he could ever have is someone who can see through his façades and falsehoods.

> As a descendant of The Cossacks and a Soviet Gun-for-Hire during the Third World War, Javelin is well rehearsed in ancient war tactics and Guerilla Warfare. Working through societal underground, he uses the unknown and the unpredictable as advantage; The enemy who bends the truth for themself is an enemy to all. Someone who is ignorant to the exact amount of danger they are in and have no idea how much they should be afraid is the perfect prey, Javelin shows textbook traits like that of the snake in the garden. There is no mercy for the foolish and there is no mercy for the ignorant.

## Physical Appearance

Javelin is a Slavic man with medium-length raven black hair and chin stubble, a pale Caucasian skin tone and a bold stature, standing a little over 6'4". He is slim, rugged and hard looking, with darkened eye sockets and a pair of dark brown irises that look to be black as night. He is gracefully dexterous with the long fingers of a pick pocket, muscled and thin for quickened combat and take downs from the shadows. A healed burn scar dominates the right side of his face and the right side of his upper torso, wrapping its way around his waist to the opposite side of back and up to his shoulder blade. When he went through cybernetic augmentation, little was changed of his outward appearance as most changes were to that of his internal organs.

As a tech-replicated human, Javelin's appearance holds some resemblance to his former self. His overall stature has increased to a bold 6'7", his eyes now a hateful, fiery, slightly iridescent blood red that dimly glow in the dark, from a close glance what appears to be lines of code raining down his irises. The hue of his scars has changed to that of glowing magma, giving him the appearance of a living volcanic fire, the blood that falls from him the same with it looking as though he bleeds molten lava. His dark raven hair now with white highlights giving the look of The Baba Yaga from Slavic folklore.

## Trivia

* Javelin's main theme is "The Wolf" by Foxworth Hall
* Javelin appeals to the entirety of The Dark Triad and technically The Dark Tetrad through:
	+ Narcissism, by grandiosity, pride, egotism, and a lack of empathy.
	+ Machiavellianism, by manipulation and exploitation of others, an absence of morality, lack of emotion, and a higher level of self-interest.
	+ Psychopathy, by continuous antisocial behavior, impulsivity, selfishness, callous and unemotional traits (CU), and remorselessness.
	+ Signs of sadism, antisocial behavior and overall enjoyment of causing pain, suffering and cruelty.
* Of the 7 deadly sins, Javelin's greatest would be that of Pride.
	+ Pride is collectively agreed to be the worst sin one can commit, as it in one way or another ties into every other of the deadly 7. Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities — narcissism. It that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God, and is when one actively (whether unaware or not) has an aversion to anything good or positive; It is when one goes out of their way to carry out and commit acts that everyone can agree is evil and irredeemable. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity. Javelin being a textbook narcissist and machiavellian fits this narrative perfectly.
