Special Characteristics: Konstantine has various tattoos all over his body, each with their own meaning. Most notably however are the finger tattoos which spell "Death" on each hand. As a result of this and his reputation as a killer, dark mages have labeled him "The Death Dealer."
Personality: Konstantine is most often a cool, calm and collected individual with a sharp mind and wit. With a knack for observation, Konstantine tends to be quite analytical and often skeptical of everything and everyone around him. Some may call it paranoia, but he likes to think of it as practical caution. He grew up in a land where nobody could be trusted, and the only ones you could rely on were your own flesh and blood, and even they had a habit of taking advantage of him. As a result, he's never too quick to trust or believe anyone he meets, assuming that everybody would rather lie about something than tell the truth. This makes Konstantine an excellent investigator, but it also means it's difficult for Konstantine to form relationships with others. Although he may act friendly towards someone he just met, often referring to people as "Comrade" or a sarcastic nickname and get along with others quite well. It takes time for any bond to be formed between him and another, but once a bond is formed Konstantine will consider that person family, a true comrade.
When Konstantine's trust is betrayed, it becomes almost impossible for it to be regained. As a man of suspicion, trust is very personal for him and the pain he feels when someone stabs him in the back is a deep wound. Konstantine will act harshly towards anyone who betrays him and will do so until that person proves to him that they can be trusted again. Such a thing isn't easily proven given his skepticism, but with enough determination and effort his friendship can be earned again.
Konstantine's demeanor boasts confidence in his abilities. Although he usually has the ability to back it up, his comrades often question his decisions which to them may seem risky as he often puts his allies in harms way. Whether as bait or something else, Konstantine doesn't mind pushing the boundaries of his allies when he's in charge, though he'd never put them in a situation he wasn't nearly positive he could get them out of. In any sort of a confrontation, Konstantine is also not above trash talking to his opponent. As an expert fighter he knows well how a mind clouded by anger can play to the adversaries strengths. With this in mind Konstantine utilizes a certain mocking politeness and sarcasm that most of his opponents find infuriating, and when that doesn't seem to work he just out right insults them and their mother.
Maintaining a calm demeanor, Konstantine doesn't move very much during combat. He tends to stand very still and only moves when it is required. He also very rarely instigates a fight. As a Rune Knight, he must follow the rules and laws of society, so being able to say that anything he does is "Self Defense" is crucial for him to be able to really let loose and fight the way he wants to. This is primarily why he trash talks to his opponents, but it would be a lie if he said he didn't like to aggravate people he doesn't like.
Likes:
- Vodka: Like many people, Konstantine likes his drink. Vodka being his favorite beverage. He'll drink just about anything, but the better the burn, the better the beverage in his opinion and nothing burns quite like a straight shot Vodka from the motherland.
- The Cold: As a former citizen of the country Iceberg, Konstantine is very used to colder climates and actually prefers the cold kiss of the winter wind. It brings to him a feeling of comfort, as if he were home again.
- Body Art: Tattoos are a symbol of commitment and expression. Every tattoo on Konstantine's body tells a story and act as reminders of the good, and the bad parts of his life and also of who he is and where he came from. Fiore's tradition of tattooing the symbol of your guild on to your body is especially appealing to Konstantine.
- His Fur Hat: Konstantine's hat is a memento from his departed mother, the only member of his family to have ever shown him genuine kindness and love.
- Ice Cream: Konstantine has a bit of a sweet tooth. Combined with his love of colder weather Ice Cream makes the perfect treat to cool his head.
Dislikes:
- Hot weather: As a former citizen of Iceberg Konstantine is unaccustomed to warm weather. The heat puts him in a very irritable mood, especially when he refuses to take off his fur hat.
- Cats: He's allergic... Any time he's around a cat (or exceed) he sneezes repeatedly. It's really annoying.
- Arrogance: Even if he's a little arrogant himself sometimes, he can't stand it when someone speaks down to him. It's at these times that his inner criminal comes out and peoples faces get punched in.
- Killing: Killing is a very easy thing to do for Konstantine. However, after living a life of crime and trying to escape from it, he tries very hard to avoid killing his adversaries. Sometimes though, it just can't be helped.
Motivations:
- Redemption: Sometimes people need to change. Konstantine lived the majority his life as a feared criminal within the motherland, and quite recently he discovered that he hated being hated and feared. Despite the "love" he received from his family back home, Konstantine needed to start fresh and make a name for himself in a new land that wasn't despised.
- Protecting the Innocent: Despite all of the evil Konstantine has committed, he's inherently good natured and quite recently he's discovered that protecting the innocent is far more rewarding than terrorizing them.
- A Clean Record: Konstantine's biggest goal is a clean slate. The Rune Knights of Fiore have offered that to him in the form of a full pardon, and he's willing to do almost anything to acquire that.
Fears:
- His Past: The life he left behind isn't one easily lost. Konstantine fears that one day those he left behind will catch up to him, and tear down the new life he's built.
- Returning to Iceberg: Konstantine's return to the motherland would result in an inevitable return to crime. Either he would stand trial and be executed for all he has done, or his family would find him and force him back in to a world he'd turned his back on.
- Losing his hat: Konstantine's hat is his only memento of his departed mother and losing it would devastate him.
