Mikhail Cozart

Name: Mikhail Cozart
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Birthday: 9/18
Sexuality: Straight
Special Characteristics: Wears an eye-patch every now and then. Many people assume he must have been injured because of this, but in reality Mikhail only wears this eye-patch to add to his "piratey" image. Usually, others are unaware of this, so it simply garners Mikhail a bit of sympathy.  His eyes also have a rare trait in that they seem to turn from the color yellow to the color red when Mikhail participates in combat. Why or how this happens is unknown to Mikhail.

Personality: Mikhail outwardly has an unfocused, aloof personality and always has a smile on his face. Because of these outward traits, many people tend to underestimate him both inside and outside of battle. Unbeknownst to many, this personality is one that he purposely took on in order to make his life in piracy that much easier. Those with an intimidating or shady personality were usually the ones that were remembered as threats and ratted out to the authorities quickly. It didn't take much observation on Mikhail's part to realize this and decide that he'd rather go a different route. Of course, one could always simply fight their way through any sort of danger that could come through a life of piracy, but taking on a new persona in order to fool his victims seemed to be more up Mikhail's alley. With a less assuming personality and presence about himself, many people fail to pay attention to the young man, allowing him much more freedom in the actions he chooses to take on. The only downside of this is that he's been acting out this persona for so long that eventually it ended up being closer to his real personality than any other.

Mikhail's outward personality doesn't change up entering battle, yet, on the inside there's an immense shift. In battle, Mikhail has a tendency to be merciless when it comes to dispatching any threat to himself or his comrades. Because of this, he usually doesn't entertain the concept of battle unless the situation is serious. For example, Mikhail would never fight someone over simple words, or even if the person has upped the situation from mere words into physical conflict - unless Mikhail now perceives this person as a threat. If he doesn't feel as though any of these actions can seriously harm or injure himself or any friends or companions he might have. If the attack is a simple punch, Mikhail might very well let it land in the hopes that it'll allow the person to get over whatever problems they were having with him and the both of them can then move on. If someone is threatening one of his friends or companions with these types of actions, then he'd trust them to handle their own affairs. If they weren't capable of at least handling their own business concerning such trivial matters, then Mikhail wouldn't be associated with them to begin with.

Mikhail has never exactly been one to lead. This is because he oftentimes values the ability to go off and do whatever he wants without a need to answer to anyone else something more important than anything else. This quality often makes it hard for him to be anyone's follower for too long as well. Even though it would be something new for him, he'd be able to eventually get used to the idea of being a leader, as long as the crew holds the same mind-sight about life as he does. If they don't, they'd obviously be boring...and that would be a no-no.

Likes:

• Adventure - An extremely important part of why Mikhail began his life as a pirate in the first place. A life of boredom was something that Mikhail simply couldn't fathom.
  
  
• Risk - There's nothing more thrilling than staking everything you have on a whim, and hoping that the skills you've honed are enough to see you through the rest of the way.
  
  
• Booty - Because he's a pirate, duh.
  

Dislikes:

• Complacent people - Mikhail feels that people like this are extremely boring. He feels as though people should always strive for more in any category of their life.
  
  
• Long-winded conversation - Though Mikhail employs this tactic when he's attempting to fish information out of a target, he doesn't exactly like it when this same tactic is used against him. Once again, this equates to something that will eventually become boring to him, and as such he will attempt to separate himself from whomever is causing this conversation as quickly as possible.
  
  
• Picky eaters - After all the time he's spent on ships, he's grown used to having to eat any and everything in sight as needed to survive. Because of this, people wasting food of any kind is enough to annoy him.
  

Motivations:

• Mikhail hopes that he can continue living his life in every way that he sees fit to live.
  
  
• He hopes that by continuing his life as a pirate he'll be able to go on adventures that makes the life he's decided to live worth it.
  
  
• Mikhail hopes to hone his skills even further and be able to call himself one of the best pirates the world has ever seen. Even though he hasn't been gifted with the use of magic, he continues to train his skills in each and every way that he can to make up for this weakness.
  

Fears:

• Being imprisoned - Though Mikhail has no problem with taking chances in his line of work, that doesn't mean he doesn't fear some of the consequences that may come along. The idea of spending even one day in prison and not being able to do what he likes is something that gives him shivers. Because of this, he'll do whatever he can to avoid this fate - outside of being a snitch, of course.
  
  
• Dying a bit too early - Mikhail doesn't fear death, nor does he fear the act of dying - especially if it occurs while he's living his life in the way that he chooses. But one thing that he does fear is dying before he can prove himself as one of the best in his line of work.
  
  
• People participating in "funny business" in the middle of wooded areas - When Mikhail was younger, he took a walk through a forest as a shortcut into town. On the way, he heard a few grunts and a couple of moans, and to him it was obvious that someone had been attacked and injured by an animal. Thinking of the well-being of this stranger, Mikhail began to race through the forest in order to find the source of these sounds. He could only hope that he'd make it in time to save their lives. What Mikhail saw once he reached the source of these noises has scarred him ever since. To this day, Mikhail has a fear of seeing an act such as this one again every time he travels through wooded areas.
