About: History/Personality

Frank is a man who would look through you, rather then at you. Growing up in a middle-class home in America, Frank had the standard upbringing- he played on little league teams, went all-state in baseball as a shortstop, played competitive soccer for his high school teams, and even played basketball for a number of years. Growing up in a solid community, he learned the importance of the American Dream and small-town values. Moving on from high school sports, he became a North Carolina Tar-Heel where his work-ethic led him to start all four years and hold the position of Team Captain for his last two. Graduating Magna Cum Laude with a BS in Finance, Frank was no shrub about his classwork either.

After graduation, Frank commissioned in the Marines where he spent four years as an infantry Captain. After a particularly difficult tour overseas, Frank began to look to putting his violent past behind him, coming home to small-town USA. It was here he took up a military research position working for the federal government. One day his manager came in, and asked Frank to submit a report on 'The Incoming VRMMORPG Popularity Explosion, and It's Possible Tactical Scenario Training Usages'. Frank took one look at his Colonial and laughed saying, 'What do I know about the games these nerds play?' "I understand that, Frank", his boss would tell him. "Just do some research to help, this ground-breaking and getting your name on this report will do wonders for your military career. You have more combat experience than this department combined, you're the one we want in there."

That's how Frank Castle found himself sitting at home one day, putting on a virtual reality headset. Before firing the game up, he fired off a quick email to his Commanding Officer, "Checking out this new game, details attached."

Once he discovered the implications of this death-game, Frank didn't know if it was all part of the game or not. In fact, he was just about to dismiss the entire thing, but it was the worry and concern of those around him which alerted him to the fact that this might just be the real thing. The game certainly felt real. Frank silently looked at the faces of those around him, seeing that they were just kids. With a heavy sigh he knew that even if this was just a game, he couldn't take the chance that it wasn't. Maybe it was the old team-spirit, or the espirit de corps, but Frank knew that he was one of the few trapped with real-life combat experience, and he was going to draw on that experience, that battle-hardiness, to help beat this game. He had thought he was done with war, but Frank always knew, could always feel one more war in him. This would be Franks final war, this game called Sword Art Online.

Virtues

Honor - You walk out of the world defined by the memories of those who knew you. Honor is something hard to describe, Frank is certainly no saint, but he is someone who conducts himself with honor, and because of that, tends to receive it in turn. This attribute makes Frank someone to be seen as a reliable person in his dealing with others, or at the very least, straight-forward and filled with integrity in his dealing with others.

Wisdom - Level-headed and calm, Frank is someone who will speak with both tact and authority on what's needed and what should be done. He's educated, experienced, and has served in leadership positions before; drawing on all of this, you can count on Frank to come out and say what must be said, even if the answer isn't what you want to hear.

Dedication - Acutely aware that death is eternal, Frank is a highly dedicated to his task of clearing this game, to the point of seeming obsessed. When he isn't actively clearing mobs, he's the type to be finding a way to work on his skills so that he can then go and clear even stronger mobs. His work ethic is par-none and while he doesn't love his work, he is his work.

Flaws
Violent - Frank is at times almost too extreme in his cause for clearing the game. Unable to hold back, his displays on the battlefield aren't going to make you want to sidle up to him and ask him for a drink post-raid. It stems from a kernel of violence he has always held in his soul, left-over from the war, something which is there and will always be there. Frank isn't reactive violent, he is predatory violent. He doesn't get angry, he doesn't become aggressive or stand-offish, he will just seek to hunt his prey in the most efficient manner possible. This creates a coldness to Frank, something which is alienating towards others.

Morally Ambiguous - Frank is an honorable man, but he is not an ethical man. He will operate outside the bounds of society if he feels it is the best way to move towards his objective. His personal beliefs are not to harm innocents and to protect the innocent, but don't confuse him for a super-hero. For a tough decision the keyword is morally permissible, meaning the lowest bar one can choose while still remaining within their own personal morals. Would killing someone who is plotting to kill others be OK? Would killing someone who is raising a guild to kill others, or raising a guild to take total control of the weapons / materials markets be OK? For most these answers would always be no, for Frank, they are just more decisions to be made.

Antisocial - Frank doesn't understand this generation, and he doesn't understand the people around him. It doesn't just make it hard to socialize, it makes it hard to escape his problems and to relate with others. He has never really played games in his life, and doesn't understand everything about the game or terminology that gamers tend to use. He is at times, on the outside looking in.
