.xxxxxxxQ: YOU HAVE BEEN TAKEN HOSTAGE! HOW DO YOU ESCAPE?xxxxxxx.
I seriously doubt anyone would want to take me hostage. Seriously? What would they get? "Ah good job guy, you kidnapped a cripple. Here is a sucker." Hah. In all seriousness I would probably take their misconstrued judgement of what I can do and use it against them. I can still throw a mean left hook, and choke someone out. So I went into pugilism when I was younger- figured that there wouldn't always be water around me- and I was surprisingly correct.
.xxxQ: YOU ARE LOSING TERRIBLY AT A VIDEO GAME. WHAT DO YOU DO?xxx.
What kind of videogame? I really am quite talented at FPSs, but I just can't do those games with the aliens that come out of the side of the walls. Thank you very much but I want to let my dreams stay in happy rainbow land. But- ah- I would probably just get up and go get something to drink; and I'm not saying water or anything. I would wink, but it'll just look really odd- so I'm going to infer it.
.xxxxxxQ: YOU JUST WOKE UP FROM A BAD DREAM. WHAT DO YOU DO?xxxxxx.
Well lets just say I probably wouldn't wake up long enough to really think about it- I take pretty hard sleep aids.
xxxxQ: YOU WERE JUST CONFESSED TO BY SOMEONE. WHAT DO YOU DO?xxxx
I would quite politely turn them down. Really- they have no idea what they are getting into with me.
xxxQ: YOU HAVE JUST WON $1,000,000. WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU DO?xxx
I-uh- to be honest, and not to sound conceited but I would try to get my leg fixed so at least I would become more of an asset to Sidereus. Beyond that I would tuck it away to gain some interest- I am not poor, and I've never been rich. I think if I didn't get out of my sight I would make a mess of myself with it.

xxx CAN HOLD HIS LIQUOR
PLEASE DESCRIBE YOUR CHARACTER'S CAPABILITIES CONCERNING HIS DEGREE:
Being a B-1 means that Alarick has a particularly good grasp on his powers, and can be quite challenging when paired with other complementary synergists. His summoning is average at best, and to be honest he tries not to use it too much as a crutch. Where the man shines the best is manipulation. He is able to bend water to his will to take on numerous shapes and move where he wishes it to be. In a pinch he can even pull the water from clouds- making rain. While he can't summon ice, he still can get quite inventive in the ways to use water.
PLEASE DESCRIBE YOUR CHARACTER'S PHYSICAL COMBAT CAPABILITIES:xxxxx..
While Alarick has suffered substantial damage to the right side of his body he hasn't lost muscle definition- and so his punches still hurt quite a bit, but his accuracy and speed is severely reduced. Fortunately his style of fighting- pugilism- has no set moves and can be tailored to one's physical condition and the fighting style of others. He was also acrobatic back the day as well, and this has suffered tremendously. What he has picked up recently is sword fighting as that is one of the few weapons that work both with his Pulvis degree and his limitations.
"AN INTERVIEW WITH AN AGENT"
Q: WHAT MAKES YOU A GOOD TEAMMATE?
ALARICK: I don't know if I am truly as useful as I had been two years back. Still I'm a particularly talented Pulvis synergist- I mean I'm no Xue-Lian Song, but I have a good handle on my ability. I'm particularly complimentary to Imber degrees as we can pretty much decimate most things hurricane style. I can also hold my own in hand-to-hand combat, less so now but I'm not a pushover. One of my more valuable skills is figuring out how to take on each situation with as little causality as possible both human and monetary. I've actually never failed a mission- not to sound egotistical I'm not Wen by any means- but I work hard for the results.
Q: WHAT MAKES YOU A BAD TEAMMATE?
ALARRICK: Are you actually looking at me? Yes. My physical capabilities are severely reduced. Along with that I'm not a lone wolf, because I definitely need a team to get anything accomplished. I also have a tendency to correct people when they are wrong- but only when their plans have obvious flaws.
Q: WHAT KIND OF PERSON IS THE "BEST" KIND OF TEAMMATE?
ALARICK: Someone that fills a need within a team and not a frivolous member. Also someone that will offer something to the planning and the implement of that plan. If you can work with others then you are very much welcome to work with me. As they say there is no 'I' in 'TEAM'.
Q: WHAT KIND OF PERSON IS THE "WORST" KIND OF TEAMMATE?
ALARICK: Divas and dead weight are probably the worst; but more so the former than the latter.
