RE: Let's Burn Up a Character

Okay, been thinking on this a while.
Beliefs (Best of 3):
*More is better. I will gather as many possessions as I can. I will use my possessions to gain more possessions.(I know that doing these things will raise his greed, and may be potentially fatal, but it just seems like such an intrinsic thing to have.)
*Living is better than dying. I will survive, at any cost. Even if it means giving up possessions.
*Less is more. I will try and consolidate my possessions into singular items, artifacts, and so on, as opposed to having a lot of stuff all over the place. I can never forget the feel of holding a fortune in my hands.
*Oleg is precious. I will do anything to protect Oleg. Even if it means giving up possessions. Even if it means I have to give up my own life. (In that case, can we play as Oleg? :3) (Also, this might qualify as an Oath, since it's his wizardbaby and all.)
Instincts(Best of 3):
*Reconnaissance Renaissance - Always scope out a new place before going in.
*Dear Friend, I Am The Prince of Nigeria - When somewhat 'questionable' deals are going down, always make the necessary preparations to cover your own dwarfish butt.
*Expensive Taste - When faced with a menu, always pick something on the expensive side of things. Even if you can't pay.
*Insurance Agent - Never walk into a deal without a bribe.
*'Pon My Oath - Never make careless or unintentional Oaths or promises.
*Profiteer - If faced with two or more choices, automatically assess which one is more profitable.
*Drunken Headlock - Never let slip secrets, not even when inebriated. (Coercion or bribery, on the other hand...that doesn't count as letting slip >:D)
*Achievement Unlocked - Always aim for concrete and easily quantifiable goals.
Oath:
*His Brother - "I solemnly swear this Oath that I will never attempt to defame you, or bring more shame to you. In return, you will not prosecute me for the loss of the Krundlhorn. Fair deal?" (This one seems important. I know it's not an Oath he'd take lightly, but it's definitely one I can see Krundlhornmakr forcing on his brother. At the same time though, it means he and his brother don't have to be at odds right away - for one thing there wouldn't be any new ground to cover in that direction. (Otherwise see Oleg, above.)
