Character Preview
Story
A senior manager in the IPC Strategic Investment Department and one of the Ten Stonehearts. His Cornerstone is “aventurine of stratagems.”
An ostentatious risk-taker, he often wears a smile that masks his true motives. He won his current position by wagering against fate itself. He views life as a high-stakes, high-return investment, and he plays this particular gamble with masterful ease.
Personal Matters
How to win a whole planet with just one chip? Strategizing, scheming, calculating… but ultimately, it hinges on luck. Good luck makes one powerful, but destiny? Inherently unjust.
Go ahead, use me as you wish, even stab me in the back if you see fit. Exploitation and treachery are simply tools of the trade. But remember, I don’t make deals that don’t pay off… So, I hope you don’t disappoint me.
There’s no denying it, my fascination is with the game of chance… be it the exhilarating rush of triumph or the extensive emptiness that follows, both are worth avoring, time and time again.
