Profile of Danya

Stone, frost, and snow make up the man that stands with such raw, godly posture. his pelt is a myriad of monochrome hues. danya's coat is thick, made for the colder climates, so unsuited for places that thrive upon heat. he walks with a particular type of confidence about him, a judgemental tilt of his head always present, even when that teasing -- or not so teasing -- smirk is painted upon his perpetually smug features. two-tone eyes of stone and deep-frozen water peer out at the world with an unforgiving glance.

As a chaotic neutral, Danya follows his whims, and the desires of his heart. He’s a man of simple, often baser needs in this regard, with little thought as to how his behaviors may impact others. He is an individual first and foremost and values his own liberty. Danya isn’t often one to join a pack without some kind of motive pushing him. He doesn’t do well with authority, and thus for him to bend the knee would require some level of respect from him, often garnered with violence. He, generally, avoids authority, and resents the restrictions that it imposes on him – although, he is not above being a leader himself. He challenges the traditions of life, often asking the question of ‘why’ when it comes to such things. He, as a chaotic neutral, is an unpredictable individual, who often operates on split-second decisions, rather than a plan, but that does not mean that his behavior is completely random. No, there’s generally a method to the madness, even if he doesn’t quite know how to articulate it to another.

In terms of personality traits, Danya is a simple man, who admittedly is a product of his upbringing. He is domineering as an individual, a product of his natal pack. He asserts his will on others, more often than not in a way that comes off as arrogant, despite his distaste for arrogant individuals. It was never said that Danya makes sense. His domineering behavior more often than not comes out towards females, feeling a need to make them subordinate to him. It comes out at times towards males that he views as weaker than himself, although, with males its easier for them to prove themselves as ‘worthy’ of his respect, often though the means of violence. With females, it’s a little harder, although it isn’t unheard of for a female to garner his respect in some form or fashion.

Danya is an intelligent individual, his mind working in a quick fashion. This plays into his perceptiveness, and his adaptability in a way that allows him to work through most situations that he finds himself in. This also shows through in his ability to simply survive, especially in harsher cold climates. Again, another product of his upbringing, Danya was pushed to be intelligent, and he managed to succeed in being a quick-witted individual who has the ability to be thoughtful when it is convenient to him. His intelligence also shows through in his ability to make almost any plan he comes up with come to fruition.

Danya is a charming man. He knows how to talk to others, through behaving in a sincere manner, being attentive to what they say, and giving the allusion of patience. Now, whether these are actual traits of his, or something he’s simply learned to do is a different matter entirely. He holds a particular type of confidence that draws others in. Danya, generally, because of this is fairly easy to get along with, until he isn’t. Once his true mannerisms come to light, it’s difficult for most to actually find him charming, but even then, they have to admit that he does have a certain air about him.

Danya is a particularly callous individual, holding little mercy in his heart for those that he deems ‘unworthy’ of his mercy. He states his opinions, without little regard for how they might be perceived, or how they may truly impact others. He treats others as lesser than until they prove themselves – or don’t, in some cases. He is cold, and uncaring in many circumstances, having little empathy for others in many regards.

He is cunning as well, this playing into his intelligence in a way that’s easy to see. He can think his way through any situation and conjure up almost anything he may need in a quick-witted manner. He’s crafty, deceptive, and confident in his manner to be as such. Danya is, in truth, a manipulative individual, which is perhaps how he can appear so many different ways to different individuals, molding himself to the situation with ease.

Since the birth of his children, Danya has changed some. He is a more family-focused man now and would die to protect his children. His heart has broadened some, encompassing Aurelia in a way that he never quite expected it to. He loves her, and the children dearly, showing his love through words in his own way, as well as through his actions.

Danya avoided the war, considering his mate is blind, and they had young children at the start of the war. However, Danya has developed a small sense of who he supports politically, preferring the plight of the Jacobites over that of the Imperials. While he is not vocal about his political choices, the Brothel now gives discounts to Jacobite Soldiers.

History will be typed out soon.
