Personality
Aden has a lot of passion. He loves his friends, hates his enemies, and tends to forget people that just kind of fall inbetween. When he feels strongly, he can be incredibly stubborn and bullheaded. Through good education, however, Aden has learned to defer to people more skilled in something than he is. Aden has a knack for bringing people together the same way a campire brings together strangers on a cold night. Aden usually strikes up a rivalry with most people he respects and becomes friends with.
Aden's sense of honor comes from a feeling of duty to the weak and a desire not to embarass his House and parents. Aden is not a terribly compassionate person, but through a good education that taught him his own weaknesses, he has learned to feel some sympathy of them.
Aden's feelings towards the Immaculate Faith are lukewarm. While he believes its teachings, he simply does not have a passion for it. While he generally fullfills all his oblications to the Order, he does so mainly for the honor of his House and to fullfill his mother's wishes.
Goals & Objectives
Aden was born into a house of heroes. Aden's father is a fast rising officer in the House legions, and his mother is an important figure in the Wyld Hunt in the East. Aden's grandfather is the head of House Cathak. The expectations on him, as the first born from his exemplary parents, are high, and he plans on taking his place in his family of champions. Aden plans to make a name for himself right out of school and then take a position in the house legions. Aden has a lot of dreams of glory and conquest and does not want to sit idle with legions assigned to the Isle when he joins.
