Character Profile: Paul Passe.

‘Origin’/Species: Passe (Angel). (As with a few of my creations, many thanks goes out to the Deus Ex game series for much inspiration)

Apparent race: Scottish… I promise. (Resides in Scotland; if I had INTERNET I could say where. )
Edit: Great Glen according to his LJ.

Age: Immortal. 4,227.

Distinguishing characteristics: Lots, from his metal and ‘glass’ wings (I fail) to his circuited and chrome eyes with the occasional electrical spark (I fail miserably ) to the soldering, wires, circuits, metal, and scars that litter his body, to his ‘mechanical hearts’ and the ‘interface’ on his right arm (that's supposed to display a dissected torso, btw. >.< ). Oh, and the fact that those meddling little nanites changed his once red hair color to gunmetal black (at which I also fail D: ).
Also there is his Angel Form, where he magically goes from pale skinned former redhead weirdness to looking like some race I can't identify (??? Yes, I had that reaction too ) with dark skin and long straight black hair… I can’t help it, it’s hot and it suits him. >.<
He is most commonly seen covered up as much as he is able (drab clothing including a hood, gloves, and shades) when he is among the human race, until book five, in which he was more commonly seen in a black suit (and shades. He’s not a Man in Black… No, really! D: ), black mission fatigues (and shades. ), or leather because ‘stealth (example: his left arm in the picture) works best with leather’ (and…… you guessed it, SHADES! O: ). However, his kilt, boots, spiky arm things and no shirt (and no shades! ) is still his staple.
Also rides a classic black Harley; kept in an underground ‘bunker’ a few yards from his house. Even in the winter, he prefers his chopper to a nice, cozy car.

Relevance: Angel of Faith, the ‘big brother’ figure of the family, despite Passes technically lacking genes (hence why Hanasaki’s children (all Passes except Ayame) don’t look identical to her).
He’s quite possibly the most loved by his ‘brothers and sisters’ next to Ayame, and has been Ayame’s closest friend ever since Lucifer Fell and became evil nasty Satan type person…
One book bears Paul’s greatest impact above all others, though I won’t go into any more detail than that.

Likes: Lindsay, Ayame, solitude, bachelorhood, bathing naked in the Loch, building, tinkering with electronics (in moderation), hunting, lounging naked in bed with a good book, deer stew, and the occasional beer and a joint.

Dislikes: The Demon Ebola, scary homo sex D:, ‘system overloads’, charging his nanites, a shitload of brothers barging in on him while he’s trying to lounge naked in bed with a good book, getting ‘the eyelash bat’ from Ayame’s wife, getting chased/glomped/leg-humpings/attempted fondlages by/from Ivy, big scary homicidal Aio, and ‘that damned fox’ that follows him around everywhere he goes.

Other: Once upon a time a while ago (or something ), Paul and his ‘brother’ Euminae stood guarding Heaven’s Gates when the Demons Ebola and LaGucci ‘stormed The Kingdom’ (their reasons will be clarified in future character insights. ). Ebola sliced Euminae into several pieces, then proceeded to rip Paul to shreds before passing through the gates… At that point, Paul underwent some serious cybernetic ‘implants’ in order to save his life (while ‘Nae got stitched up to look like a fucking baseball >.< ), thus making Paul into the ‘cyborg’ he is today.
Paul was the second cybernetic resident of Heaven to receive the ‘nanite program’, he insisted on them after YET ANOTHER painful fate suffered during book four’s Delpha incident, but on the first try, his body rejected the micro machines, which nearly killed him again. (Way to go, Ayame! ) Thus Ayame resorted to rendering Paul’s body capable of manufacturing the nanites itself (he doesn’t have metal bones, so he couldn’t produce them the same way Trinity can) with the heart-looking thing on his chest, and the other thang on his ribs that distributes them. That, in turn, manufactured them with a sort of ‘DNA code’ that allowed them to intermingle with his organic systems. A drawback of that, however, is the fact that the nanites can only heal internal damage, while a gaping wound will cause them to drain from his body faster than he can produce them, rather than healing the open wound. Ooh, listen to me tryina sound aww smawt!
Paul also had a brief crush on Magdalena Passe (he can’t resist a great pair of legs), as seems to be common among Passes since they rarely grow up around anything but other Angels. Thank god nothing ever comes of Passe crushes save for two instances, one of which is quite different (but I won't go into that, because this is about Paul ).

Pets: Tsuki (robotic dog he crafted himself), ‘that damned fox’ his brothers lovingly refer to as PJ (Paul Jr.) just to get on Paul’s nerves.

Additional comments: I haven’t decided on his mech color theme yet. Initially, it was mid-tone bluish metal and pale blue lights. Now I’m debating between that, and either silver metal with pale teal or green lights, or blackish metal with red lights. I still like the blue best though……… Green is a close second, and the red seems to suit Trinity better, but I’m not sure about HER either, cuz I always liked the blue for her too. ): (I like blue too much! >.< )
His wings (among other things) came out looking rather sloppy too… It sux. I was gonna draw his home in the BG, but boy once I finished those transparent wings that idea bit the dust real fast. D: Maybe if I ever color it. ^_^
