The Grand OC! [CONTEST XXX: HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEN]

Command and Nightmares

Username: Dragon Fogel
Name: Lt. Karl Weiman
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Color: #BF304D
Biography: He had failed them.

Three whole divisions had died, following his orders. It was his fault. And worst of all, he was still alive to regret it.

More than once, Karl had thought about ending it all, that it would be fairer if he paid the price for his own mistake, even if it wouldn't fix anything.

But he couldn't. The General had made it quite clear - there was too much for him to do.

So much, in fact, that he could never remember what he'd done when he returned the next night for another briefing. But no doubt it was important. Perhaps it would even help him make amends.

Description: Karl wears a very dirty and ragged military uniform, and hasn't bathed in years. Despite this, the medals on his chest are always meticulously polished.

He isn't much of a conversationalist - he tends to babble to himself, and barely acknowledges anyone else, even if they're attacking him or he's strangling them to death. But to anyone who gets close enough to listen, it sounds like he's muttering something about obeying orders, and that he doesn't want to disappoint the General.

His behavior is highly erratic, and usually violent. Despite this, it always seems like he has some sort of goal in mind, whatever he's doing, and he never lets anything get in the way of it.

Weapons and Abilities: Karl carries no weapons - whatever firearms or other standard-issue weapons he might have once had were lost long ago. He doesn't seem to need them, however, as he has surprising strength and durability for someone who looks to be an ordinary human.

He does have one major weakness - his tendency to fall asleep at seemingly random intervals. When this happens, he tends to flail wildly and scream at nothing for several minutes, before calming down briefly and then getting up again to resume his erratic waking routine.

It makes you wonder just what he's dreaming about.
