in time gone by
-
He's spindly and bitter
and reminds one all too much
of a demonic apparition
because he comes and goes
far too quickly to be fully corporeal
it isn't within any human capacity
to make such hauntingly lasting impressions
while always threading no more
than the peripherals of the eye.

PERSONALITY ⇢ At first glance he presents himself as a charming man with immaculate manners and no messed up intentions in sight. Possesses the qualities of a gentleman and is a very sweet flirt and friend. The underneath is tenfold darker than the surface, he's unstable and it shows. Vengeance has morphed him into a monster, though those traits are relatively softened by his schizophrenia. Visibly struggles to deal with himself when presented with difficult or argumentative social situations. Often lets his emotions reign over him in such cases - confusion, defensiveness and (more often than not) anger - ranges from explosive to supernova-esque. On the opposite side of the spectrum - Elric's affections are as strong as his hatred. He puts people on pedestals and as a result is very heartbroken when they don't live up to his expectations. Insecurities and delusions (often persecutory in nature) make him a difficult person to please or convince once he's firmly set up an opinion.
MANNERISMS ⇢ Eyes always unnervingly wide, as if alert or wary, sometimes darting about for a moment towards an unknown point in space. This makes his smiles appear a bit deranged, regardless of how charming he tries to make them. He has adequate speech down to a science in social situations, but allows himself to loosen up when alone.
LIKES ⇢ The cold, winter, snakes, kindness, people who see past his disorder and his background, trustworthiness, big quiet open spaces, quiet environments (libraries, suburb houses, mountain huts), books, plantlife, crackling offensive magic, unraveling people.
DISLIKES ⇢ Not being in control of himself, not being in control of others, unnecessarily loud noises, schizophrenic episodes, others knowing about his past, long dark hair and blue eyes, calming aural energy, most magic users, aristocracy.
