Personality and Abilities
First Paragraph: Both cunning and quick like a fox, but reserved whenever at work or social manners. You could see Andrew being an audacious host looking as he was bred to be royalty. But when stepped upon or out of business you can tell he changes into a witty and deviating person who is glad to get messy in any situation. If a guest or person where to see him they would perceive Andrew as a person of self-control or discipline. If a good friend of Andrew's were to talk about him, they would say one of the three words. Reckless, Quick, Excessive. You could compare it to salt water, It may look like fresh water but as you go to drink it you realize it's the complete opposite.Second Paragraph: Andrew has high-spirits and is glad to be around. He has confidence in people and his friends and in himself is greater than usual. Andrew pushes his anxieties back to make effort for that extra confidence, if someone doesn't like it then we'll try harder the next time. Andrew won't take shit from anyone if they force it against him, ordering him as work is different, but letting someone walk on him is completely different. He has a great amount of self-respect and cares for himself. He sees himself as aged wine, every year we gain taste and flavor, every year we gain something we didn't the last year, either a rise in age or a rise in wealth it's more or less for him.
Third Paragraph: Andrew's family is his crew on the ship, they're like brothers and sisters to him. He's loose and calm around the group making him feel warm whenever he hears the hearty laugh of another shipmate. He's empathetic of their losses and virtues, becoming a helpful figure. Around strangers or unknown people, Andrew tries to get a dot on who they are before making his move. Andrew, mostly he bases a lot of reasoning on how the unknown person perceives other people, and how they look at their ethics or ethos and logos. He more comfortable with someone who is calm and relaxed and not outright in his face.
Fourth Paragraph: Morality for Andrew is in a neutral mix, a mix of sweet and bitter if you may, On one side, Andrew is grateful to help another person out, but is wary about who the person he is helping out, saying he'll take a certified cut of his own (Stealing) from the person Andrew doesn't like his work from. He likes seeing people succeed but would rather see himself succeed more.
Fifth Paragraph: Andrew has no care if Nobles have more than him, it's none of his business and he would rather focus on other problems than rallying to say that some people shouldn't be privileged. Focused on religion, Andrew has a mild opinion on it, he does believe in the afterlife and that there is a god but is lose about the rules following it and focuses and doesn't zone in on it. Andrew looks at his privilege in the world as blood and sweat, that he worked for it, that he broke bone and skin for it.
