[quote=@Apokalipse] In my opinion, I'd put him in a faction. Even if he is more of a loner, he doesn't necessarily have to like his faction or be friends with the people in his faction. He just has to use them to stay safe. [/quote] [@Invisible Man] That would be my advice as well. Gloria has paid a heavy price for remaining independent. But he has deep seated emotional and personal issues that negate her ever relying on someone in any meaningful way. If you're character's just too arrogant to want to be ordered around you're best bet would be to use the faction like a shield but stay as independent as possible.
