This looks interesting so…
Trust is yet another mistake brought upon by the irrationality of emotions.Name: Lawrence Arden
Age: 19
Offence: Non-compliance with regulations, erratic (but not violent) behavior, apparent disregard of Continent Laws and authority in general.
Personality: Lawrence is a
sociopath, and in his own mind he transcends other human beings or is "above them" in a sense. He neither goes directly against the Laws but neither does he take particular care in acknowledging them. It's less a spirit of rebellion and more that he just forgets, such things are not a priority in his mind. He enjoys toying with the minds of others, and has an uncanny ability to read people, find what makes them tick.
History: From a young age Lawrence had been "odd". He never took joy in playing with the other children, and he was bored by education and life in general. He spent a lot of his spare time observing the existing criminals (the ones who hadn't been floated yet) for amusement, simply because they were anomalies among the drab sameness of everyone else. Once his condition was diagnosed, he was given psychological treatment, until the therapist administering to him was found dead one day in his quarters, having killed himself. It was decided by the Council that he should simply be put away, because he was a disturbance, and if one day he happened to be cured they would let him go. Though in all honesty, they're only waiting till he's old enough to float, because one less human no matter how harmless he appeared to be, was one less mouth to feed and one less pair of lungs to breathe their precious air.
Other: Lawrence has no particular connection to any of his fellow humans, emotional or otherwise, and is generally unconcerned by his plight or their affairs. Has no particular skills other than manipulation of others, which he is unnervingly good at.
