IC:
Name: Heracles Karpusi
Age: 28
Personality: Loud – Not in the sense that Heracles screams everything he says, or is intentionally being obnoxious. Heracles is actually usually a very quiet person. He’s very social, but he moderates. In this regard he’s more of a listener than a speaker. But boy, when he gets going HE GETS LOUD. Heracles needs to be loud to be heard across his classrooms, but that’s okay because the passion and enthusiasm he puts into his lectures more than provide for that. Heracles can’t help but be excited when he talks about his homeland or anything that involves it, especially when it comes to sculpture. Expect him to wonder incredulously why his students aren’t as into the subject as he is.
Passionate – He’s very passionate about a lot of things. His greatest loves have been, for a long time, his work and his classes. He absolutely loves what he does and it goes hand-in-hand with his loudness in the classroom. He never gets tired of explaining things to people that may not get the material he teaches, and this makes him very approachable for some people.
Animated – The downfall of many students. His excitable nature wouldn’t work if he were not very animated, but he pulls it off well. Heracles is prone to running back and forth across the front of the room, explaining the subject through an exaggerated wave of hands, with comments of, “This is absolutely incredible!” with a massive smile on his face. In fact, he’s probably received more suggestions from his students to sit still more so they can concentrate, but he doesn’t expect that to happen anytime soon.
Focused – This man can talk about the same subject, nonstop, for hours. He always has something to say and he can stay on course without deviating (unless promptly and roughly). This also makes him able to concentrate on certain actions until the job is done, under the pretense of “If I get it done now, I can laze about later.” Unfortunately this is a double-edged sword. Heracles becomes so enthralled by a subject that he loses sight of the bigger picture. Flagging him down is one of the most difficult things a student will ever have to deal with, which is funny because he makes a joke out of distracting his students AWAY from him to “test their ability to pay attention.”
Distracted –In stark contrast to his situational focus, is the incredible ease with which he may be distracted. When cornered by a particularly uninteresting thing, Heracles loses his ability to focus on the task at hand and may find himself staring off into space while contemplating various philosophical questions. Or porn.
Snarky – Although Heracles will make it clear if he doesn’t like someone, he gets a lot of joy out of being subtle about his dislike of people. He makes a hobby out of dropping sarcastic, back-handed comments in the middle of conversing with people.
Meticulous – As an archaeologist, Heracles is very detail-oriented. He’s delicate and gentle, and very patient. He has a keen eye for small objects and will thoroughly investigate every bit of dirt to make sure he doesn’t miss even the tiniest of artifacts. This is also beneficial for his studying of art, because it takes a good eye to note down symbolism.
Organized – Chaotically organized. Heracles orders his house, classroom, and office in such a way only he knows where everything is. Many people would say he’s still messy, but he knows his surroundings so well he scarcely loses any of his possession.
Sexual – Most people don’t like to imagine their college professor being the kind of sex bomb Heracles is, but he really is. He’s attractive and intelligent and can be quite the romantic, but as an employed teacher, he has to keep his reputation, so he doesn’t go out solely for sex as often as people might expect.
Humorous – He thinks so, anyway. He makes awful jokes a lot, but if you’re into anthropology/archaeology you’ll probably laugh too.
Eccentric – It can be said of most people involved with anthropology that the lot of them tend to be quirky, and Heracles is no exception. He bends the rules every now and then (mostly by bringing a kitten to class or smarting off at his student if they make some dumb comment) but a large part of his eccentricity comes from the sheer amount of effort he puts into his job.
Social – He’ll go out and drink with buddies and the like, but don’t expect to see him at anything huge. He’s sociable, but he doesn’t make friends with everyone he meets and tends to pick one or two people that he’ll trust and hang out with above everyone else.
Two Choices For Divisions:
Military Police - A division for the severely lazy! Other than keeping than peace, there's no titan fighting here, which serves Herc just fine. He's incredibly lazy and doesn't like to make more effort than he needs to, so thank God he was put into this one over anything else.
Garrison - Okay, this is less lazy, but at least it isn't the Scouting Legion. He'll need to do actually work here, but he's hardworking enough to make sure everything is working fine. He kind of likes being alive.
History:
Not out of any desire of his own, but military service was kind of a thing in his family - and surprisingly, all of them survived long enough to procreate but promptly died afterward. This is a mistake Heracles intends to never repeat. But nonetheless, his service was more encouraged (and nearly forced) and it was willing, so it can be expected that he'll make every attempt to be in a division that requires little effort on his part.
Fate and tradition was something that both interested and terrified Heracles, and never were two things so apparent than in his family, where men and women of the military had ungodly luck living until they settled down and had families - and around that time they were snuffed out by a Titan or by some accident. Heracles likes living and will thus push his luck to the brink, though he knows all good things must come to an end.
