Name: Azrael Smirnov
Age: 34
Gender: (Cis) Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Role: Immune
Appearance:
Azrael stands at the slightly tall but generally unremarkable height of 5’10”. His general physique could be described as slightly above average but otherwise unremarkable, really. He’s somewhat broad-shouldered and built with some lean muscle that stretches to reveal ribs poking from his sides if he were to lift his arms; not noticeable most of the time, no, none of his interesting traits are noticeable on a surface level. Perhaps that's because to his core, he is simply a man in his mid-thirties going through the worst imaginable scenario.
To his initially noticed traits, Azrael has blonde hair with a slight wave to it that sweeps over his face and at the nape of his neck, falling a bit past his shoulders. It has almost a spiky sort of look, partially because of its natural wave and partially because it’s an utter mess. The color has been somewhat muddied with dirt and lack of care, though his eyes are arguably muddier; a dull sort of color, one where you could hardly tell whether they’re green, or blue, or gray, or a mix of the three. His eyelashes are long and pale, his eyebrows are arched and expressive, and his jaw is a strong one, covered in slight stubble that he cannot be bothered to shave. His hands are calloused and his nails are caked with dirt, he has thick bags underneath his eyes that accentuate the tired sort of unimpressed stare he often gives out, he has a chip in the tooth next to his right canine -- the more you look at him, the more you wind up finding.
For example, Azrael really doesn't have many major visible scars, but he does have quite a few small or hidden ones. He has a nasty burn scar that spans his left side, and his wrists have mild scarring as though something had been on them. He has a scar directly across his throat, so thin you could hardly see it unless you were extremely close to him -- really, he has a countless amount of nicks and small scars on his body that are similar in that you could only see it if right up against him. He has a devilish glint in his eye that can only be recognized by those looking for it or those who know him, and the manner in which he moves tends to be lazy and infuriatingly calm without fail.
Underneath the surface, Azrael is a fairly interesting man. That is not meant to imply a recommendation for getting to know him, however. He is incredibly annoying.
Personality: Azrael is a conman, first and foremost. Perhaps that's how people are tricked into the tiring ordeal of knowing him; he presents himself as calm and intelligent, first, and they get drawn in by it. Oh, and perhaps he is that, and perhaps the charm that he lays on in order to promote whatever he wants to promote -- a deal, an item, himself, whatever -- could be considered a real and genuine part of his personality. Still, it does not change the fact that he promotes himself using the charm of the average man, and he is not that.
There are a few layers to knowing Azrael. There's the initial meeting, where he's all calm and professional. Every layer of him, he has the same feeling of always being on top of things, as though nothing could catch him off guard -- it's not true, of course, but the first rule of being a conman is the ability to play pretend. He's remarkably amicable at this point, actually; usually quite trustworthy, with quiet, tired smiles and few words. He'll make some friendly talk, indulge them in whatever they might say (no matter what it is), offer them what he has on hand. This is when he'll present his product or what he wants, and it quickly becomes evident that he is not easily tricked. He's awfully perceptive, with quick retorts and unimpressed looks to any attempt at conning him.
Azrael is good at getting what he wants. He's great at dealing terms and bamboozling, and perhaps even worse, he's even better at knowing when he's already got it. With his smugness and the joy of a successful hunt comes his eccentricity. Yes, Azrael is deeply irritating and incredibly strange -- taunting, rude, and incredibly petty. He does exactly what he feels like doing, no more and no less. It's a mixture of stubbornness, laziness, and simply enjoying others being frustrated. He'll be compliant if it aids him or if he thinks it'd be funny but no other time. It's difficult to tell his lies and sarcasm from his honesty, and he is entirely unabashed about everything he does.
It's only when someone gets to know him even better, looks even closer, when they see something breaking through the cracks of his pettiness. Perhaps more surprising than the fact that there's more to him than the annoying conman is the fact that his true nature is one that returns him to calmness. You don't necessarily need to know him incredibly well to see it -- he can be amicable even past the initial cover. He may be more loose and rude about it, but there are still moments where you can see him staring down tiredly, or seeing his smug demeanor drop into something more quiet and introspective. He's more than willing to hold a personal conversation, and he has a relatively positive outlook on life despite all that's happened to him. Despite everything, he can still act like just the average man in his mid-thirties who's going through the worst situation imaginable, and perhaps someday, someone will see him staring blankly and tiredly at the sky and realize that maybe it was his innermost layer that he showed first.
Strengths:
+ Silver Tongue :: As has been covered already, Azrael is a great conman. He's a good manipulator, he's excellent with his words and he's an even better liar. +
+ Wit :: Despite the idiotic feel he gives off at times, Azrael is undoubtedly a smart man. He's quick-witted in the moment, but especially great with planning things in advance. It's a shame he refuses to do so the majority of the time. +
+ Evasion :: Not only is Azrael great at evading questions and people, he's also simply agile in general. His best work on the battlefield is usually in dodging attacks, or at least figuring out ways to take as little damage as possible. +
Weaknesses:
- Fighting :: Probably his worst trait is the fact that Azrael is not actually good at fighting. Not good at hand-to-hand, not skillful with weapons, nothing -- he's gone his whole life winning fights by avoiding them, running from them or tiring the opponent out. If he were to ever be trapped in a room with someone with plans to kill him, well... he'd be fucked. -
- Lazy :: Azrael will not do shit unless he feels like it. This is both infuriating for others and detrimental for himself, as his unwillingness to do things has gotten him into many a tight spot. -
- Frustrating :: In general, Azrael is incredibly frustrating. He's awful to work with unless a deal has been struck with him or he likes the other party enough to grant them extra favor. Not the best predicament when he's supposed to be traveling in a large group for a great period of time. -

Other: Ah, if he's accepted, I have an idea for his backstory that I'm not sure would be accepted? I'd put it in the discussion thread for approval, as I figure that they'd probably all at least vaguely know each other's backgrounds after being assigned to work with each other.
