Confident but not cocky, relaxed but alert, casual but committed, Arsene strikes a perfect balance.  With an almost single-minded focus on his outer appearance, he always looks exactly how he wants to. He's incredibly conscious of how each action he takes looks, what it says about him, and manipulates every move to tell the story he wants to. Each step has been rehearsed and planned carefully to ensure perfection; he'll settle for no less. Arsene is an actor through and through; it wouldn't be too far fetched to say he isn't even a person himself, simply a role the actor Arsene Mayura decided he liked best. In the same vein, he is incredibly conscious of others body language, always looking for minor signs and ideas for what its going on around him.

There is an absolute level of confidence in everything he does. He has a thorough understanding of his abilities and limits, and won't even attempt something if he doesn't believe the odds are completely in his favor. That isn't to say he doesn't take risks; if anything in the heat of the moment, he can be completely reckless, but believes and understands his capabilities so well that to himself, it's no risk at all. Once his mind has been set on something, there is no rest till it's completed. Inside him is the firm belief that your life and destiny are of your own making; if you want something, accept nothing else until you have it.

Despite this self confidence, or perhaps because of it, Arsene craves the attention and affection of others. Making his living as a street performer, he is always putting on a show. Anything he can is treated like a performance, most of the time simply for the applause that follows. Even in simple conversation with people his gestures and speech range far above the norm. His desires are not finished with the approval of others; he has an insatiable appetite for luxury and pleasure. This craving isn't limited to material goods; Arsene is in constant pursuit of knowledge. He knows that information is the most value resource there is, and is always looking for something new to abuse for his own gain.

To satisfy his urges, Arsene sees nothing as off limits. Morals are a waste of time. He desires greatness, at any cost. Nothing is too far, and nothing holds him back. Even human life is simply a resource he can abuse for his own gain. That isn't to say he doesn't have friends and relationships he values; when he makes friends with someone, he does care for them and their well being. But to anyone else, he sees no difference if they live or die; whichever brings him more advantage.

Likes:

• Luxury; Arsene has a deep seated avarice, and a craving for the better things in life. He loves to embrace the higher forms of living.
  
• Performance; No matter what he's doing, Arsene will make a show of it. There's no reason to do things normally when he can make it exciting, after all.
  
• Knowledge; Arsene is always looking to learn and better himself, and understands that no knowledge is ever useless; you just need to find the proper way to leverage it.
  

Dislikes:

• Morals; Aresne believes each person owes no responsibility to anyone but themselves, and can't stand when people preach to him about morals and doing things for the greater good.
  
• Self-Depreciation; In the same vein as his beliefs on morals, Arsene believes you are responsible alone for your lot in life. When he hears of people talking themselves down or simply blaming fate, he tends to get angry.
  
• Dogs; He's never really been fond of the animals; they are almost the anti-thesis to his own beliefs. He is much more a cat person.
  

Motivations:

• Perfection; Nothing motivates Arsene more than achieving perfection in each aspect of his life. He is driven on by being the best he can be, no matter the cost.
  
• Avarice; Simply put, Arsene is greedy. He desires luxury and pleasure, which he feels naturally belong to him. How fair the means he uses to get them are is irrelevant to him.
  
• Approval; An actor and a crowd pleaser, Arsene lives for the glory and fame of the stage. He lives for the roar of the crowd and the thundering applause.
  

Fears:

• Inadequacy; Perhaps his biggest fear is that his own self confidence is incorrect, and that he can't actual meet his own standards.
  
• Hatred; The opposite of approval, Arsene couldn't live without the love of the masses. If he were to become scorned and lose their applause, he would know what to do with himself.
  
• Death; Arsene may seem reckless, but any risk he takes is calculated within. He fears his own mortal demise greatly, scared that he would die before becoming the best he could be.
