About: History/personality

Liam grew up in the country and never particularly liked crowds. He grew up in a fairly average, upper middle class family. From a young age he enjoyed sports as well as computer games. Growing up, his mother worked a number of different jobs throughout the years and his father was in the military. He and his older brother spent a lot of time playing outside and camping both alone and with family. Liam went to a private school through 4th grade and around the time of middle school, he and his brother began to drift and become more combative in their relationship. This is around the time that he drifted more towards gaming and began to immerse himself in the games. For a long time he played entirely shooters until a couple of his friends from a clan he was in introduced him to MMOs. While he was above average intelligence, he lacked the motivation to do his schoolwork and his grades suffered despite doing well on almost every test he took. Because of this, he did not get into college and instead began working in labor jobs.

Liam had spent most of his time gaming in two guilds. While never trying to gain power, in both he ended up in fairly high positions in both. The first was a revised realism gaming clan that he spent nearly four years as part of and through his dedication and hard work, he became the only member to bypass the rule against under 18s not being allowed to become officers (being 15 at the time of that promotion). He eventually would leave the clan due to a change in the attitude of the guild, a change in the upper echelons that focused more on realism aspect than having fun, and a variety of problems that went unsolved despite multiple reports. While he did not want to leave, he could not stay while the issue went unsolved and he parted ways. The other guild was a friend of his from MMOs and crossed multiple games. While it took him a while to reach the upper ranks, his dedication and loyalty again were what eventually got him that far, and at one point was left in charge of attempting to rebuild the guild in one game during the leader's absence. Despite his failure to do so, and so exemplifying his lack of sociability required to lead a guild, he spent a long time as the second in command of that guild due to his ability to read the attitude of the guild and it's members. It was only due to a falling out between himself and the guild leader that he eventually faded from that guild as well and eventually ended up playing with a select few of his friends. That is until 2022, when the announcement of a new MMO using full dive virtual reality technology which had previously only been used for educational uses. He made sure that he was going to get his hands on that game, and when the day of the launch came, he was excited to see this new technology in action. A game where you're actually IN the game. This is what he had been waiting for all his life, and he hadn't even known it.

Virtues:

Komrk is Loyal to a fault. He will fight and die for those he is close to, even if that death is real. Some would consider this a good thing, and others bad, but it is simply how Komrk is. When he grows close to someone, he will not leave their side unless told to, and even then he will watch over them from a distance. If someone messes with his friends, they mess with him, no matter how outnumbered or outclassed he is. He will never leave one of his friends behind, even if it costs him his life.

Komrk is a heavily Impartial person to the core. He does not believe in any set "right" and "wrong" so to speak. He is a moral nihilist, believing that some things have more negative impacts than others, but nothing is intrinsically good or bad. He prefers to listen to both sides of the story and determine for himself. He does not get caught up in mob justice and believes that every situation is different. This can often lead to him playing devil's advocate or on the wrong side of those who believe that they are the all knowing masters of morality as often happens in mob justice. This can cause problems with some of the more "holy pain"-esque people who believe that they have the moral high ground and so, he will often avoid those people.

Komrk is an Orderly individual. He likes to know that there's a place for everything and everything is in it's place. He is good at organizing large groups and keeping cool in the middle of battle. Due to this, he is often left to deal with the logistics whether it's in game or in real life. The reliability of his organization skills is what helps him advance within large groups quickly and while unsocial, this virtue is just as good when it comes to leadership positions.

Flaws:
 

Komrk is a Callous person. Unless he views you as a friend or someone he can trust, he will not go out of his way to help you, and may even just ignore you. He is not necessarily heartless, if he feels that your story legitimately warrants his help, he will help you, but he has very limited and fluid reasons that might warrant his attention to your cause. He also does not visibly show emotion, because he believes that is exposes him so to speak, and he is a very private person, except around those that he is extraordinarily comfortable with.

Komrk is very Sarcastic, and uses it often with people he deems to be beneath him. Sarcasm is his go to form of mockery, and he as much enjoys those who don't see that it is sarcasm, as much as those who recognize it and get angry at him. He is a master instigator and will often use blatant sarcasm in order to frustrate and anger someone purely because they messed with him or insulted him. While this can often lead to him making enemies, he could care less because these are already people that he had no interest in befriending in the first place, or who have lost that opportunity with him.

Komrk is also very Withdrawn. He does not go out of his way to make friends and is not social in most situations. He talks to those he is friends with, and those he has to either out of necessity, boredom, or etiquette. He is not particularly friendly to strangers, but he is not outright rude either. He is to the point when making conversation with those he has no interest in. He will not speak unless he is spoken to, or has something worth saying and he often looks down on small talk with strangers as drivel.
