Personality:
If there is one thing about Ventrinio's persona it's his pure determination and undying will to overcome. The kid simply doesn't give in no matter what the situation is; and has a ridiculous resolve matched by no one. His resolve and guts not only 'get others irritated." but can even leave people to ponder about his magnificence. Ven like his teacher has the skill to surpass the instincts of mankind meaning he is a person ready to die whenever he fights. He doesn't feel fear when fighting no matter what the enemy is, and he does not abandon himself in fear, instead he strikes fear into his opponents.
One thing is certain Ventrinio is exactly what the rumors say he is rude, lewd, vulgar, greedy, arrogant and aggressive. He can be extremely blunt, exuberant and hot headed. He says whatever is on his mind and doesn't really care who he is talking to or who he is in front of. Doesn't really care for formality or social standings in today's society, Ven doesn't carry any respect for anyone really, unless they have somehow earned said respect. Regardless of who they are or where they come from he refuses to bow to anyone, no matter what kind of danger he might find himself in. Despite these traits, he somehow manages to retain a certain rough charm about himself which tends to make him a little likable some of the time. Despite his aggressive demeanor Ventrinio doesn't wish harm on people who can't handle it. Because of his background in criminal activity, fending for oneself to survive, stealing, and gang trouble he can easily find himself in trouble time and time again. He believes in doing for yourself and the ones close to you. During his childhood he had no one to rely on other then himself so that reflects on his persona today. Which is why he comes off as selfish and greedy.
While on the other hand he has his moments of enlightenment, compassion, Charisma and serene elements. He does have high beliefs but not in religiousness; but more in strength of character and endearment. He believes in dreams, and that one can achieve everything they desire in life, he calls it "Personal Legends.". Though at times he does tend to use his philosophy to do what he pleases like partying, drinking, hitting on women, and pushing people to fight him. Though he tends to use his idealism for minuscule things, in moments of seriousness he can truly inspire others to follow their true dreams. And has never wavered from his own path. It was this mindset that he overcame extreme odds, and even slavery.
He also believes that all things are one in the world, and that everything is connected. And one can truly understand what this means when you can hear the language of the world and see it's soul. "The soul of the world, connects all things." and he truly believes this making him somewhat complex for his character, who is often only seen being rude and causing trouble.
He is rather laid back and calm when not worked up about something. He spends a decent amount of time meditating, and examining the world around him. He is able to learn many things just from listening to the soul of the world and becoming attune to it. He is a fun loving person, in fact everything he does is for his own enjoyment his humor is truly unique. He can come off having a rather cocky attitude in battle and out, and not above throwing his opponents off with his slick mouthy banter. He is shown to be very energetic and optimistic to delude his opponents into thinking something else. Despite being just a human Ventrinio gives off a god like presence and feeling. As if he stands above the gods themselves.
Likes:
- Animals: In contrast to his very 'rough' and 'cool' demeanor. Who usually doesn't think twice about causing a stir. Ven has very soft spot for animals. He can never really find it in himself to hurt one, and often goes out of his way to protect a furry little creature in harm's way.
- Gambling/Games: V is a fierce competitor but not only when it comes to fighting. He has quite an addiction to gambling his favorite game being poker. He also loves playing games and of course winning at them. Any type of game, gamble, or sport Jin is most ready to take in.
- Lotus flowers: His favorite flower, and one of his favorite things in the world. Lotus flowers represent fortune and enlightenment. Rising and blooming above the murk to achieve great fortune. His grandmother showed him these flowers one time explaining their meaning and how much he can relate to them. They remind him that he must rise and bloom from all the murk and ugly things in life to achieve great fortune and enlightenment.
“It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.” Ventrinio
Dislikes:
- Hobbes: Little ugly dwarf goblin creatures. He hates them with a passion. Why? Because everything that he usually has, they take from him.Hobbes mostly live in caves or underground tunnels. They don't speak English instead a warped scratched 'hobbe' language that Rai seems to understand and speak as well. He actually grew up dealing with hobbes ever since he was young, always meddling in affairs of his from small petty jobs, to big ones. What makes it funny is no one ever believes him on his story about hobbes and their meddling.
- Snobby rich: Now he loves the gambling he loves money, but he hates people that abuse their power. He usually makes it a vendetta to take everything they got. Just because he can.
- Closed Minded: He doesn't dislike allot of things, because he keeps an open mind just about all day everyday. But one of the few things he does dislike his closed minded people, people who don't want to broaden their thoughts.
- Books: Being born as a slave Ven has never been taught to read or write. He has tried on many occasions to only meet failure. Because of this he has a misplaced 'hatred' for books and things of the sort.
Motivations:
- The Soul of the World: Despite his initial characteristics Ven is mostly interested in the "Soul of the World" Basically figuring out how the world works and how everything connects.
- To never 'kneel' again: Being a slave when he was younger had quite a toll on his mindset and determination. For his own growth of character Ventrinio has promised himself to never kneel or be a slave to anyone.
- Simply to be the Best!: Ventrinio's inspiration is truly quite simple, it is to be the best. Simple and plain he wants to be the best and to be the best you have to win and that's what drives him. Every fight he fights to win, to better himself, to rise. His inspiration is to prove himself as one of the best in Fiore and leave a trailblazer legacy.
Fears:
- His Nightmares: It is a rare occurrence that Ven will have nightmares of his past. He fears them but also hates himself for falling to them as he should be able to overcome any and all of his fears.
- Failing his personal legends: Ventrinius is afraid that he won't live up to all his personal goals and dreams. He won't admit it but he is afraid that he will die before achieving anything.
- Fish: Quite an odd fear but it is very true and even more real. Ventrinio can't stand the site of fish they literally scare him. He would either freeze up and pass out, or just spazz out for hours. He fears the look of them, their big gooey eyes, their feel of their slimy wet skin, and even the smell of them being so rancid.
“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” Ventrinio
