Save for his witty sarcasm, and his potty mouth. Raleigh is as nice, and as helpful as anyone could be. Noted by anyone who stands around him for more than ten minutes, Raleigh is a hard worker, loyal, and trustworthy, he takes it upon himself to be as honest as possible, but sometimes this honesty may be seen as frank or harsh, but he never means to come across this way. To some, Raleigh may seem a little sheltered, and quiet, but he usually goes through intense thinking processes before he does most anything, meaning that he can be calculated in his responses and actions. As far as his inner feelings, Raleigh is actually quite sensitive at heart, and will not stand for being insulted or taking damage to his character, this sensitivity extends onto even his close friends, where he may be caught viciously defending them. He takes too much to heart, and should for the future try and ward off things that may seem to hurt him, but Raleigh has never exactly had a stable self esteem, except when concerning his skill with machinery. The boy has set some negative aspects about himself, particularly the fact that he's always wanting to take charge when a project comes his way, and that he has a hard time working in groups. Despite his low self esteem, confidence seems to be brimming in him. He is also instilled with a sort of hardy, aggressive air about him, when he wants something done, he does it himself, and regrets nothing that he does. He is never unsure, or short footed, and he always has an answer for everything he does. Raleigh is not very sentimental, or nostalgic at all, he tends to disassociate with anything that reminds him of his past, to move on towards the future with no shame. He is quite studious, and intelligent, but when something doesn't hold his attention he will stray immediately and refuse to do it, often causing problems between him and authority. He abhors being held back from his ambitions, and can be lured into trouble by virtue of being argumentative, and straightforward. He can be a bit of a jokester, and he cusses so often that even some staff has stopped paying attention to it. Raleigh is a practical person, who tries to find a practical use for everything, he pays attention to precise details, and can be almost obsessive when something becomes a major interest for him. For his father's child, he feels he too strongly embodies his traits, and when people mention that he's anything like him, he tends to reflect and once again (something he does often) disassociate. [b]Major Flaw:[/b] One would be surprised to know that behind this well mannered facade, Raleigh harbors a dense hatred of people, which mainly comes from him not being able to understand other viewpoints. Every flaw he sees in anyone even remotely close to him, he uses as an ace to manipulate them into doing the things he wants them to do. He holds a narcissism that he is unaware of, thinking that he is perhaps the leading example of what a human should be, a role model of sorts, and other people are inferior. He doesn't seek to better them, but rather affix them to his own logic. This is also the reason why many people have come to realize that they know so little about Raleigh's emotional or mental state, he makes sure that his own glaring flaws aren't shown, but this in turn makes his existence a truly lonely one, and has made him a rather pessimistic person on the inside. He seems to be unable to form bonds despite an outwardly warm nature, and shirks away from affection of any sorts. When he realizes he's doing these things, he reverts into a very quiet state, and can become aloof, unresponsive, hesitant, and somber. He hates himself for doing it, and tries earnestly to change the behavior but it is for now seemingly beyond hope. [b]Opinions on the Evangelions:[/b] He actually isn't very fond of his Evangelion, he likes to think of a tool used to manipulate him since his mother's soul is resident inside, and regardless of whether or not he wanted to pilot it, fate would have that he pretty much has no choice in the matter. [b]Relationships With Other Current Characters:[/b](you'll have to take a close look at the profiles of every previous character before making this; only a sentence or two is necessary): [b]History:[/b] WIP [b]Notes[/b]: --- [center][img]http://s.cghub.com/files/Image/272001-273000/272793/901_stream.jpg[/img][/center] [b]Unit Number[/b]: Unit-03 [b]Unit Nickname:[/b] Affectionately called Smoking Barrel by Raleigh (reasons why below) [b]Preferred Combat Style:[/b] Long Range Artillery (the works) [b]Preferred Weaponry:[/b] [url=http://wiki.evageeks.org/images/4/41/Explanation_of_1-01_131.jpg]Type MM-99 Evangelion Large Caliber Rifle / AU Assault Rifle[/url] [b]Integral Weaponry:[/b] The shoulder pylons are often used as racks of some sort for his artillery, every time he runs out of ammo the Pylons steam to signal him to grab another set of ammunition. [b]Unit Notes:[/b] Raleigh's nickname for the eva unit comes from the steam that pours out of the pylons when he uses his Rifle. --- just need to finish the history, which I'm currently working on.
