Personality

46610_VQYirQjWCTAO6AL.png?1424183935 For all his eccentricities and neurotic flaws, Rohan can be quite efficient if he has a plan to follow through. He usually much rather wait, study, and then follow through with a plan of action after he's gotten his details just right. Not only that, but he rarely questions orders (if ever). If he's told something needs to be done... then something needs to be done and he'll do it, no questions asked. It also won't matter if he has to be underhanded or tricky about it - he'll get down and dirty if he needs to, and will even work well in groups, given he doesn't particularly like being in the spotlight or care about taking merit. It's hard to gain his trust, but once someone has it, Rohan's loyal to a fault (in fact, he can be over bearing and over protective to the point of frustration) - he'd probably move heaven, hell and earth for those he truly believes in. The hard part is managing to break through whatever shell he's constructed around himself (he thinks it's hard to break said barriers, but in all honesty, all that's needed is a bit of effort and someone willing to actually spend time with him - a little patience goes a long way with him). While he has trouble trusting people around him until they prove themselves worthy... he's actually just as stubborn about letting go of this trust as he is about refusing to allow others near him.

Laid back and patient, he's not the type of wolf that goes looking for trouble. He likes to have a plan before attacking or hunting. Of course, this can also be a flaw too - waiting too long can be just as bad as charging in unprepared. For someone whom could be defined as a bit of a misanthrope... he's actually very good at passing on knowledge that he's acquired. He's patient enough to understand that not everyone has the same learning rate as he does, and doesn't get frustrated with ease when people are trying, even if they are failing. He has no trouble standing in front of people in a class, and also seems to do well in one on one cases, be it for school work or fighting lessons of some sort.

Not to say he's actually diagnosed as Neurotic, but it seemed like the best word to describe him accurately. Rohan is... a mildly paranoid person, and prone to small panic/anxiety attacks if things don't work out 'according to plan' when he clearly things they should have. He doesn't seem to do well when taken out of his element, and performs poorly when asked to adapt to rapidly changing environments or people; he needs time to asses the situation and figure out how to act, and thus stresses greatly when not allowed to do so. He dislikes it when people enter his own, personal space, or when others touch his things, and will react rather crankily when out of his element. For all his efficiency when he actually has a plan to follow through with, and the fact he has no trouble performing his civilian job... when he's taken out of a work environment and placed in social situations... Rohan doesn't really do all that well. Talking to a class? Sure. A speech you say? Fine, give him 20 minutes. You want to get coffee? Ehhhh... can we not? A DANCE you say?! Fuck no, go find someone else! This stems from the fact that other people make him nervous (specially noticeable when he's in direct physical contact to others - at least when not in battle). When stuff starts moving out of the... normal plan of action and his opponents start doing stuff like flirting with him... well then, that actually throws him for a loop. Getting physical with him without the intent to hurt him, might possibly cause his brain to crash. Rohan practically walks around with a "Do Not Touch" sign worn on his person.

He claims there's order in his chaos, but the truth is that it's possible no one but him understands his 'orderly chaos'. His office is a mess of papers, folders and things - even Rohan himself seems to forget where he left his shizznit that same morning. It's not that bad when he misplaces his car keys, but it starts getting annoying when he misplaces that incredibly important document someone told him to put in a safe place. His office is probably easily compared to some sort of black hole, capable of eating items and objects up in the mess. His general appearance is also quite chaotic. While his looks are generally average or above average, he takes little care of how he looks - he's that dude with messy, chaotic hair and crooked tie that seems too engulfed in what's he's reading in that book to really care. Let's get this straight - Rohan doesn't really like you from the get go. He'll stay calm and cool about it, and for the most part... kind of slightly polite-ish about it (unless you count glares and ignoring as rude), but he really, really doesn't like you. This makes it really hard for him to make anything OTHER than enemies, for the most part, given the first impression anyone's going to get of him is that of a god damned asshole. But then again, in his experience, people are usually not worth his while, so he'll save himself the trouble and just group you in with the rest of the idiots unless you prove him otherwise. To top it off, the man can hold a grudge. All in all, it's not a wonder he spends most of his time alone.

Quirks

✚ PENDANT Rohan wears a red pendant around his neck which he tends to keep protected under his shirt. From within this pendant, he can summon forth a weapon that has two forms; it can manifest in the form of a bone scythe, or a sickle and chain. The Weapon in question is his main way of fighting, and Rohan has control over which of the two shapes he wants to use.

✚ RESEARCH Rohan's more in his element when he's researching - this research can be for any purpose, really. It can be researching someone's identity... it can be researching a plan of action. Hell, it can be researching why the sky is blue instead of green. Also a good 'alone' activity, which he approves of. He also adores reading fiction - any sort of fiction! While he favors books (Lots and lots and lots of dusty old books - his place is positively drowning in them - why does he need so many anyhow? ), he occasionally uses computers; all the knowledge in the world in such a small machine! Now, with mobile phones being what they are, it's even easier to do this on the go, anywhere and everywhere - kindles are also absolutely amazing, as far as he's concerned.

✚ MUSIC He finds most classical music to be relaxing, and can be seen listening to it on particularly stressful days, to unwind. He also has a taste for older, more classical rock and roll (though you've probably have a hard time getting him to admit to it - him? Listening to such loud music? Nonsense, what EVER are you talking about?).

✚ COLLECTING Rohan is a packrat. He might deny it, and tell you that every little gadget and every little gizmo and every little scrap of paper in his room and store is of use and has incalculable value, but the truth is... none of this is true to anyone but him. He refuses to throw things out for the most part, and he's probably not someone you want to take to a flea market, or a garage sale, because chances are he'll leave with a mountain of useless things.

Not so much an ability, but he does seem to own a rather strange, pink cat. He'll likely claim it to be a exotic breed, but something's clearly up with this critter.

Rohan has a rather interesting way of knowing what people are thinking sometimes. Maybe he's just really good at reading body language? Who knows? Whatever the reason, do not for one minute think you're going to steal from his shop. He's likely heard, or rather, seen you coming a mile away.

For some weird reason... Rohan simply knows things. It might be that he's good at finding things out, or it might be something else. Whatever the reason, if you want to find out secrets, he's a pretty nice go-to sort of guy. If you can get him talking, that is.

The pendant he wears seems to harvor a strange weapon, which he has on ocassion summoned when in trouble.

History

Rohan came to town seeking a quieter place where he could settle down away from people... away from the world. His personality type did not co exist well with others, and when the pain of a botched relationship became too much, Rohan picked up his things, turned around and pretty much ran away. He decided that perhaps, if he ran... and if he never looked back, his past would not catch up to him.

Rohan lives in denial of his past, and to bear the pain, has closed himself away from much of everyone and everything. He finds it hard to have relationships with people, and so far, only Annie has managed to breach past his hedgehog like self defense tendencies, seeing them for what they truly are. He stays in a room within her rather large house (it's comfier than a hotel and much more personal after all, while not being as large or as expensive as a full blown house of his own), and computes to work on a motorcycle.

He now runs a rather small book store, specialized in the strange and paranormal. If anyone is patient enough to engage him, he usually has answers to problems, and information that is otherwise hard to find. It just takes a bit of effort to draw it out of him. And perhaps some coffee.
