And Grit himself
Grit | Advance Wars | Not Reserved | 2/3
Grit is extremely intelligent; being able to excel in intel over someone whose speciality is in intel. His intel is always correct, when he does it, showing off his high intelligence. He often covers this up, with his country bumpkin nature, aforementioned need for slacking off, hick slang, such as possum spit, which seems to be his favourite phrase, and shortening words. It often appears to be an act, since he's capable of learning things easily, he's overly competent and is able to do things with ease; often able to overcome his direct range weakness with intel and knowledge.
He can be sarcastic at times, giving his superior the nickname 'O Bearded One' as a joke. He generally only does this towards Olaf; however he always tries to pretend like he didn't say anything. Grit does like to joke around, but he knows when he has to be serious too. If a friend or someone he cares about is in trouble, he'll stop messing around, and immediately tell people where to go or what to do. He's secretive about things too, not always speaking much of himself or telling people things about himself. A big sign of this is while talking to Nell about why he left Orange Star, he interrupts her, telling her he has his own reasons, and still isn't willing to talk about it. But he can make close friends, especially the one seen in another commanding officer, Max. He is fairly modest, saying that he doesn't often hear about his praises being sang and tells Colin to stop it.
He acts on what he sees as right and wrong; the main time we see it come into play is when someone is harming someone else.. While being offered to join Black Hole, Grit comments that he does not believe land belongs to anyone, but he won't join Black Hole due to the mass destruction that had been caused. He generally prefers to be on the good side of things, rather than the bad. In the first game, he often comments on Olaf attacking Orange Star and digging into their territory.
Game Specific:
Arcana: Lovers
Justification: Grit's entireity of leaving Orange Star was inner conflict and despite letting it go, he's still quite conflicted on his feelings. However, his unity with his best friend, Max, can not be debated, and they are as close as ever. In order to keep harmony, he goes along with Olaf as best he can, working with him despite not completely agreeing, just to keep Blue Moon happy. He'll follow his intuition, and do what he feels is right.
Grit | Advance Wars | Not Reserved | 3/3
First Person Sample:
Huh. Interestin' place you guys got goin' on here.
[He stands in front of the camera, lighting up a cigarette with a match, throwing the match away.] I was just headin' back to get my lighter too. [He squishes the match under his foot before something sets ablaze.]
So, where do I get more smoke supplies? Didn't see anythin' yet. Maybe I need to take another walk around...
Third Person Sample: Grit looked around where he was, and immediately went on the move. If he did this, he might draw attention to himself, but he had to find whatever he could find on this place. He didn't enjoy being left in the dark about anything. He would hope no one from home was here, but that's why he was going to take a look around. Maybe someone had been here longer.
He quickly moved through out the streets, taking note of all the sights, the sounds, and the people around. This place wasn't torn apart by war, and he knew he was somewhere else. This wasn't his world. And he needed to get home soon enough at least. Because who knew what was going to be planned there. But he wasn't in any rush. They didn't desperately need his expertice. Sonja could handle that just fine on her own.
Either way, he'd spend a bit more time here. As much information about this place that he could gather. Something definitely seemed off.
