Raknar Vicarius

PERSONAL

PERSONALITY: Raised not only on a military base, but in a military unit, Raknar effectively became an active battlefield combatant long before he had even turned 15. As a child soldier raised by his father he had a strict life that forged him into a proper military type, doing everything as was instructed of military procedure. Raknar is openly hostile and racist to a wide variety of species, his father's pro-turian attitude impending itself deep with his mentality. More so, his father's twisted methods of commanding that eventually saw him labelled a war criminal have scarred Raknar. He is trapped within his father's old teachings that everyone is weak until trained effectively, and anyone who can't meet the standard should be eliminated before they become a cost.

Having literally spent his entire life in the military Raknar refuses to undertake any non-combat role. He strongly believes that a soldier has no place anywhere other then on the battlefield. He has been trained in a specific set of skills and he must take the path that best allows him to utilise them, these skills, being war.
OCCUPATION: Mercenary, former turian soldier.
FAMILY:
• Talik Vicarius; Grandfather: Active
• Saul Vicarius; Father: Active.

ME2 Companions: Hurt & Heal

I love this game so stfu. >.>

The premise of it is simple. You take a number of characters (usually 10) and list them all. Each character has 10 health. Then every post you hurt a character by 1 point, and then heal another by 1. Always copy the last post so it's being kept up to date and things are going right. :3

The last character left alive is the winner. I decided to pick the roster for this one, and i think i'll start it off.

[I picked ME2 companions because excluding Jacob and Miranda, who would likely get all the hurts, there's 10 characters.]

Jacques-Cartier Dinnoir

PERSONAL

PERSONALITY: Incredibly vain and narcissistic, Jacques has an incredibly inflated sense of self worth and a degree of an elitist attitude. Though he can sometimes be rather aggressive and threatening, it is incredibly rare for him to shed his friendly, kind, demeanour under many circumstances. As a result of this, Jacques has been joked about as one of the few people existence of being capable of killing someone, politely. A very biased and elitist person at heart, in many pursuits he favours humans over aliens, then the French over humanity as a whole, then people of Lyon over other French people. This is not to say he is racist against aliens, sometimes favouring various aliens species over humans depending the situation, though there are a few moments where he can forget his manners. Romantically, Jacques is constantly detached and never intends to settle down, instead remained a free man. As both a womaniser and a xenophile he often spends nights with women, or men, of varying species.

In a day to day world he is a heavy drinker and smoker, though he has an abnormally high tolerance to alcohol, something that spawned myth that it is impossible for him to get drunk. Though he prefers to talk through situations and come to beneficial agreement for both parties (his thick French accent helps a lot in some situations), he has no issues with threatening, killing, disfiguring or crippling people to get his way. Commonly, he comes across as a very mellow person, often wandering around in very old looking clothes that could pass for lounge or bed wear, even to the point he sometimes travels barefoot. His taste in designs is very French traditional, often preferring very decorative and ornate furniture and clothing often pattern with a vast saturated colour pallet and a multitude of varying designs. He sometimes prefers to be called Jacquot rather the Jacques, though his preference is incredibly inconsistent.

SEXUALITY: Bisexual.

APPEARANCE

Jacques' skin is of an average white coupled with obsidian hair with sparse patches of white and silver, his eyes are soft brown. His age is gradually starting to show, a few wrinkles starting to form in select areas, so far he's been ageing well. He is a rather unassuming, regular looking person. Being over average height and build, standing roughly around 5'9" he isn't exactly someone you'd pick out from a crowd based on his looks. That said, his mannerisms and fashion sense make it considerably easier, a notable reason being his fondness for wearing suits, but not wearing them correctly. He often leaves himself looking scruffy in some form such as having his hair scruffy, his clothes ruffled and unbuttoned in the right places. He goes out of his way to make himself look scruffy despite his sophisticated history and demeanour.

CLASS

COMBAT SKILLS: Jacques isn't exactly soldier material, but through out his life he's learnt quite a lot. These things started out as which end the bullets come out of, and are currently at a level of where to shoot to kill someone, and where to shoot to really hurt them.
GENERAL SKILLS: Business ownership wasn't something he particularly had to fight for, or struggled for in many respects. Running a business is something that comes rather naturally to him. Similarly, his abilities of persuasion have helped him through a great many situations, though they've not always been in the nicest of ways.

HISTORY

2143 - 2153 [Ages 0 - 10]

Born on Earth, in the city of Lyon, France to Marianne and Arnaud Dinnoir, Jacques had a rather pampered childhood as opposed to one filled with numerous trials and hardships. His own hardship in his early life was getting along with his siblings. He was 3 years younger then his brother Jules, then his younger brother Jean came 2 years after that, his sister Océane 3 years later. His early years were filled with scraps and fights with his siblings, he fought them try and possess everything, his few years of life already making him believe he was more deserving of it then the rest of them.

When he was seven years old his family experienced a tragedy on the form of a shuttle crash. His mother was not aboard, rather nearby and died in the ensuing chaos of multiple detonations and eezo leaks across multiple involved vehicles. The children found it very difficult adjusting to life without their mother, Arnaud wasn't the most attentive of people. They were all shocked, disgusted and confused whenever he mentioned that she wished for her to survive, solely because he wanted that biotic child she was carrying.


2154 - 2165 [Ages 11 - 21]

Getting used to being in education was something that took a while, but Jacques adjusted to it quickly. He excelled in maths and business and was quickly sent to business school in Beauvais in the hopes he could become a useful asset to his father. The time away from his family made him slightly bitter and resentful towards them for effectively abandoning him. More so, his classes were filled with nothing but imbeciles he was certain were the products of incest. He elevated himself above their position, he had it so much better then they did, and he wasn't afraid to flaunt it. As far as he was concerned, he was better then they were.

He became quickly reviled by his fellow students, but his self confidence and determination helped him in countless ways. He used his advancing education and knowledge base to get himself a job in a small corporation near his Beauvais home. The vast changes he made, and helped with, made him very rich even without his father's aid and made the company very popular and in high demand. He used his small fortune to enjoy his remaining years of independence with men, women, narcotics and alcohol.


2166 - 2176 [Ages 22 - 32]


Upon returning to his home in Lyon with his family he took extensive pride in his progress, especially when the company he had worked for collapsed when it couldn't meet it's mounting demands. In a stark contrast to his life as it was before the only person who was happy to have him home was his father. His siblings despised having him around, believing that he had abandoned them when he was sent away.

He was soon dragged into his father's business, a company he'd obtained a long time ago named Greyjoy Industries. The company had been given to Arnaud as a way to pay off his debts and free himself from trouble. It was at this point in his life when Jacques discovered his father's underworld connections, including the fact that Arnaud was apart of Unione Éternelle. The group was a powerful, yet isolated syndicate of numerous criminal families and now Arnaud finally saw Jacques as part of the family.

The family, as it turned out, was small and weak. Their only power was in the corporations that they had owned, which Jacques was slowly building up thanks to his business education. The foundations of the family were soon rattled as his father took ill, apparently starting to lose his battle with cancer. The discovery hit everyone hard, except for Jacques who remained unmoved. His narcissistic nature didn't allow him to sit around worrying, he had suddenly made a horrifying realisation; if the Dinnoir family looks bad, he looks bad.

Assuming control of the family under the situation, he began producing large quantities of weapons, armour and armoured vehicles, promising to supply them to the other families. A 'debate' erupted between his brother and himself involving hid decision to effectively re-purpose the factories and act like he was in charge, when Jules was actually to the run family in his father's absence. The next day they received the news that Jules had been killed him a horrible accident when a transport skycar's engine blew out, ploughing threw him while he was away at a business meeting. A week later Jacques went to visit his father in hospital, to inform him of Jules' death, however Arnaud died halfway through meeting.

The first meeting Jacques would have as the head of the Dinnoir family was with a man representing group called Cerberus. They discussed the unusual activity of Jacques and his factories, and even claimed to be aware of what he was planning. The two eventually came to an agreement, in return for Cerberus assistance during this difficult time, Jacques would supply Cerberus with as much as he possibly could without attracting much attention. As a sign of good faith Jacques even donated 1/3 of his stock of armaments to the organisation.

From there, it only took 2 years for Jacques to seize control, utilising mercenary bands and Cerberus to hit the varying other families and run them around in circles, often causing other to turn on themselves. When the 'Union War' had come to a close, it had been because Jacques finally played his hand, unleashing a massively armed private army on numerous families, many of them couldn't hold out against armed mercenaries and Mako's smashing down their walls.

Jacques victory came in the form of a surrender, the threat of annihilation seemed all to serious to the others present. By the time Jacques was officially the leader of the Unione Érternelle he had crushed 27 of 43 families that made up the organisation, leaving only 16 left standing with the Dinnoir family at it's helm. The first order of business for him was take stock of everyone's property, incoming, trades, etc. When Jacques knew what there was to help, and what there was to leave, he had the remaining 16 families eliminated, the surrender he'd offered them being a stall so that he could make them complacent and make it so looting the husks of the families, was so much easier then if they had the time to scatter it all to the winds.

From the hundreds of companies, corporations and franchises he obtained during the 'hostile takeover' of the union he had enough resources to make him one of the wealthiest men alive. A vast majority of the companies were rolled together and relentlessly piled upon Greyjoy Industries until it had become a mega corporation. Many of the assets where then shipped off world to numerous different planets so that Jacques could more easily stretch out his influence, and increase the amount of income such places made.


2177 - 2183 [Ages 33 - 43]

Following the Unioné Eternelle's reconstruction Jacques had set himself up as a kingpin of the syndicate. He divided up many of criminal fields up between new, different groups within the Unione, leaving the legitimate business ventures to himself to avoid suspicion now that he was in the limelight every now and again. He still remains a massive investor of Cerberus, primarily because whilst he is a well known xenophile, he dreads the day when an alien species could surpass mankind and doom them. Despite his many misdeeds on the Citadel, including drug and alcohol abuse he's keenly managed to remain a free man, mostly due to also donating to C-Sec and other choices places. Who would want to risk funding by arresting the guy giving the money to them?

Jacques was very quick to adapt to life in space, having moved from the family home to the Citadel, leaving the old house in Lyon to his greatest friend. In addition to a penthouse apartment on the Citadel he also had homes on numerous different planets across the galaxy, an apartment on Illium and Noveria and a château on the island of Corisca near France.

He continued to run the numerous business, as well as the Unione from his new home on an alien space station. He soon earned himself a reputation as an eccentric businessman, entrepreneur and bachelor as his old womanising, alcoholic and drug abusing habits returned. Despite the constant controversy that would sometimes surround him because of these little escapades he was still able to win some love with the general population of the Citadel. Chief amongst them was opening a night club of his own where he could enjoy himself, though it never quite got as seedy as he liked. The club, Purgatory, became an instant hit but some people never quite felt it hit as much as a place like Chora's Den, so Jacques bought a bigger lot and reopened Chora's Den there.

EXTRA

ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
• In addition to running the mega corporation, Greyjoy Industries, he also head the criminal syndicate Unione Éternelle.
• Despite the negative/illegal acts he sometimes get involved in on the Citadel he rarely faces legal repercussions due to funding and supply given to C-Sec and other Council-governed groups.
