Character Concept
Stirling has always been lazy, a fact about which he laments but almost but rarely seeks to correct. Rarely does he attempt more than basic hygene practices and most would agree that any work he undertakes is done to the bare minimum standard. Only one person had ever managed to elicit more than the bare minimum of effort from him and that man is now dead. The exception to this is his is his often unseen adrenaline junkie side. Once his juices get flowing, Stirling will continue pursuing the high until he crashes or until the stimuli is no more.
Warring with his innate lack of motivation is his recent, soul etched determination to bring vengeance on the shadowy figure that killed his master. First amongst the things he considers necessary for this goal are the skills his master sought to instil in him: martial and spiritual mastery. For this he seeks training. Since his master's death he dedicates almost all of his waking hours to seeking and mastering the skills required to deliver shadowy justice to the shadowy figure.
Always quick with an amicable smile and a kind word, Stirling possess little malice in him. Soft spoken Stirling rarely speaks more than 10 words in any conversation, preferring to keep his words meaningful and direct. Honesty is his policy or, if this is not possible, silence. Following his former master’s teachings, well most of them, Stirling attempts to bring peace wherever he walks in the light, though he is not always capable of restraining his darker nature.
Quick, cold and sustained is his anger. While mellow for the most part, those who cross the boundaries of his temper are never forgotten and rarely forgiven. Vengeance for these slights is swift, but rarely soon. His master had nothing positive to say on the matter of revenge, though Stirling takes his words on any other undertaking to heart on this matter: ‘Anything worth doing, is worth considering first’
As mentioned, Stilring has little room for anger within his soul – he harbours little malice towards those who he deems require justice or deserve vengeance – it is simply a matter of reciprocity. It is a matte of mild concern for Stirling that he has never felt bad about any of the things that he has done which most would consider morally wrong. He knows, at least intellectually, that all life is precious and important (as his master taught), however on the few occasions on which he has taken a life, he felt not a thing at all.
