Eric Nim
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Birthday: March 19th
Sexuality: Straight
Special Characteristics: None
Personality: Motor City is the home of machines, of magicmobiles, and their makers. What it is not, is the place for a young child. Eric Nim, son of the engineers Gathilda and Daryth Nim, was one such child. Growing up around the thousands of engineers of Motor City, it is no wonder he gained a fascination with machines, and their inner workings. By the age of eight, he had taken apart his first engine. By the age of fourteen, he could tell you every part of your engine, precisely what it did, and after a few minutes of driving, the condition of each part. In truth though, by the age of 16, he had began to get bored. There wasn't a part he didn't know. It was just the same things over and over, and so, he simply left. He hasn't returned to Motor City since.
Eric is a complete magicmobile geek. He knows the name of every part of every model which has been made since their original invention. True, he doesn't know the secrets and secret techniques of most of Motor City's engineers, but in his opinion, he doesn't need them. He wishes to follow his own path, not follow in the footsteps of others. Outside of combat, he is fairly laid back, and frankly rather lazy, but get him started on a machine, and he'll focus in on it in a way that's almost uncanny. Strangely enough, this focus is something he carries with him into battle, or at least a focus born of adrenaline. He approaches combat like he does his machines, maximizing efficiency, making sure a maximum of force is not wasted.
One thing he is used to is following orders. During his time in Motor City, often one of his parents would guide him as he worked on one of the magicmobiles. From these many years of experience, and the later experiences of following customer's orders, he became used to being given a task, and following it to completion. Something he hasn't done, however, is lead. He personally doesn't think he'd be any good at it, but then again, he's never tried before, so who knows. He might just surprise himself.
Likes:
• Machines-Creations of efficiency, there's little he likes more than a well oiled machine.
• Puzzles-He would likely define bliss as finding the underlying logic in a problem, and then apply that logic to solve it.
• The Unknown-He loves learning. It's as simple as that.
Dislikes:
• Guessing Games-If you want to tell him something, just say it, don't assume he has any clue what you're talking about.
• Unsolvable Puzzles-These things will keep him up at night for weeks...
• Monotony-This is precisely why he left Motor City.
Motivations:
• Curiosity-He must always know what lies around the corner, what hides in the locked room.
• Boredom-Just as surly as he runs to find the new, he runs from that he finds monotonous and boring.
• Achievement-If given a problem, he can't help but try to solve it.
Fears:
• Pointlessness-He can't stand the idea that he, and everything he's ever accomplished, is ultimately pointless.
• Heights-A fairly common fear, it shouldn't be that surprising that he shares it.
• Regret-He is terrified of the idea, that one day he'll realize that he regrets the path his life has taken.
