Personality Characteristics
Virtues & Personality perks
+ || Resourceful | Commanding | Observant || +
Hercules is a resourceful person. When it comes to achieving his goals, 'can't' is not a word in his vocabulary. He does whatever it takes using whatever is available. Despite this intensity, he is not uptight. He knows how to relax, to engage with others, and be fluid. He is cool under pressure and not afraid to take control of a situation. Because he's fairly reserved himself, he knows how people hide their feelings and is good at interpreting non-verbal behavior. He tries to use his powers of observation for good - that is, to give people what they want or need - but he uses it for less laudable purposes as well.Vices & Personality flaws
- || Opportunistic | Reserved/Quiet | Proud || -
He can be opportunistic, taking advantage of people and situations to meet his own ends. Hercules is not afraid challenge leaders if he's not in charge. His automatic tendency to command situations and groups can be a problem if he has to report to someone else. He will challenge others' authority, until/unless they earn his respect.
Hercules isn't particularly talkative and doesn't always let other people know what he's thinking or feeling. Because his parents fussed over him a great deal whenever his birth defect caused him to struggle, he works hard to make it seem like he never struggles. He isn't boastful, arrogant, or self-centered, but he is definitely too stubborn to ask for help.Hygiene
Fastidously clean
Hercules is a mountain of a man: taciturn, physically imposing, and difficult to move. He was marked by gods and acknowledged by an oracle for a heroic destiny.
