The "My Character" meme is making the rounds again, and since I already wrote one for Darla the last time, the obvious choice is...

- is fluent in several languages, including Narn

- but never was as good at gambling as he thinks he is

- really doesn't get Reebo & Zooty, or any of the cartoons Garibaldi showed him

- is aware that he started selling out when he gave into the family demands to divorce his first wife, the dancer

- still thinks that ultimately, this was for the best of everyone concerned

- knew exactly which of his wives he'd divorce and which he'd keep before they ever arrived on the station, but wanted to enjoy the competition as well as his conjugal rights

- is incapable of sitting still for longer than five minutes (pre-Keeper)

- thinks monogamy is one of the silliest human customs, and thinks he'd never get jealous (he's wrong there)

- loves Centauri Prime more than he loved any person, including Adira, Vir and G'Kar

- but would have done what he did for the Centauri for any of the above as well

- didn't regret Refa's murder even after finding out Refa had not killed Adira

- did have Morden tortured before killing him and can't regret that, either

- though it didn't bring him any pleasure, satisfaction or comfort

- does envy Vir the capability of caring about things like the death of Cartagia

- thinks assassination is far more efficient than Sheridan's open civil war against President Clark

- would never have supported an open revolution against the Emperor for that reason, and because he's a traditionalist

- had Vir buy a copy of the Book of G'Kar in secret and read it immediately, but pretends he never read it at all to G'Kar

- expects to get a signed copy from G'Kar anyway

- wrote poetry as a young man and sometimes still does, in secret

- is not a good poet, but great with prose

- knew about Mariel's affair with G'Kar almost directly after it started, but didn't care

- would have cared if it had been Timov, but has never admitted that to himself

- is sometimes curious about the details, but wouldn't ask unless very drunk

- is an intensely physical person and can't think of a more horrible fate than getting trapped by a Soul Hunter and spending eternity in an incorporeal state

- before finding out about his own fate, of course

- thinks he wanted to be Emperor more than he wanted to be a hero from his youth onwards

- actually wants love more than either

- did know what he was doing when starting the Narn/Centauri war

- has wondered ever since whether he would have done it if G'Kar's invitation to a drink had come first, not after

- would like to believe he wouldn't have, but is never sure

- was able to get over the mind rape in Dust to Dust because some part of him had been waiting for G'Kar to take his revenge

- wonders whether Adira would have loved him without his title in his more cynical and self-loathing moods

- hasn't spent a moment in his life without a servant at hand and would be horribly impractical if forced to live without money

- loves giving presents and receiving them

- enjoys sparring of any kind almost as much as sex

- is basically heterosexual, though not incapable of getting involved with a man

- was never more frightened than on the day he saw the Shadows over Centauri Prime and Cartagia told him they were alike

- didn't completely play his anger towards Sheridan in the War Without End flash forward, due to leftover resentment for the Alliance bombings and Sheridan's blindness regarding the Keeper in The Fall of Centauri Prime

- thinks Delenn is the brains in that marriage anyway

- never stopped regretting losing Garibaldi's and Lennier's friendship

- but thought at the time that restoring power to the Centauri Republic and gaining it himself was worth it

- wanted to have children, but is sterile

- never gave up hope in all the years with the Keeper.
