Cold Objectivity—remains unmoved even when other children drop out (become catatonic) during harsh training. Absolute Self-Defense—obedient to his father and instructors' unreasonable demands while constantly watching for an opening. Reason for Personality: Extreme competition for survival—optimized solely to survive while his peers (4th Gen) dropped out one after another. An environment where defeat is not allowed—drilled with the idea that "Defeat = Negation of existence," he stopped thinking about anything other than winning. Skills: Bad at cooking and sewing.
