Distinguishing Features: Close inspection reveals that all of Lain's teeth, and his jawbone, are actually artificial.
Psychological Characteristics
Personality:
Lain is entirely insouciant regarding nearly everything. His apathy runs deep regarding politics, religion, pleasure, vices, and morality. A single dominating factor controls all of his actions: self perfection. Far from a narcissistic ego-maniac, Lain is instead a cold and reserved living calculator.
If given the choice between a whorehouse, bar, or gym, one can be sure that the entire evening would be spent working out. Regarding his body and intellect, he is a complete perfectionist. To him, the only tasks worth completing in life are those that can challenge him.
His single-mindedness results in a passive-agressive nature where in he is typically silent and observant. One of the few things that upsets him is bull shit, which he views as other people throwing their weaknesses and imperfections onto him.
Likes: Martial Arts, working out, studying, mind games, a fellow intellectual.
Dislikes: people who are extremely lacking in some category, other carefree people
Goals: to find the ultimate challenge, and beat it
History
Lain is a slightly modified clone of his 'father', who is simply the donor for his genetic material. He is faster, stronger, and smarter than the rest of his family, who were all born naturally.
As a young boy he was involved in gangs and an over the top level of street violence. At age 15 he was in a fistfight with a much older man, which left Lain with no teeth and a jaw fractured in 14 places. Rather than have the bone mended, it was simply replaced.
Following his defeat he resolved to never lose again. He left the underground and had his father enrol him in a private school. In his spare time he took up the martial arts, studying as many varieties as he could. He began both western and eastern fencing, though he far prefered the katana over the sabre.
At age 18 he joined a shooting range and seriously studied the techniques of a marksman. Although he can be slow to aim at targets beyond 50 meters, his speed and accuracy with a pistol at close range is astounding. He also studied at a university and earned double majors in psychology and mathematics, with an emphasis on cryptography, in just 5 semesters. At age 21 he joined a private military corporation, but he found the money hungry nature of his employer dragging down what could have been such a more efficient para-miltary operation.
At age 22 he left the PMC and appealed to the Nepleslian government for employment, his only requirement was that he would be able to see combat. After a few intense weeks of negotiation, the miltary agreed to hire him on as a contractor. With his university credentials, he was able to convince the government that he had a high level of cryptographic knowledge, analysis skills, and understanding of the human mind, which would make him best suited not only as an intelligence analyst, but as a forward observer and scout.
Skills
Communications: With his degree in mathematics, Lain finds cryptography to be particularly interesting. As an intelligence analyst, his thorough understanding of the underlying principles of encryption allows him to work with great celerity.
Fighting: Lain prides himself in being an expert in armed, unarmed, and ranged combat. Aside from his extensive training as a teenager/young adult, he learned more techniques during his time as PMC. Though his hand to hand fighting is his best, his pistol marksmanship and skill with a blade are not to be taken lightly.
Mathematics: Lain's degree in mathematics displays his ability to quickly pick up and run with complex number theories and computations. He mostly uses his talents in regards to intelligence analysis, statistics, and cryptography.
Humanities: Lain's psychology degree is mainly put to use in military intelligence, where he uses to to predict enemy actions and reactions.
Physical: Any time Lain doesn't spend studying, he spends excersizing. He heavily favors calisthenics over weight based training.
Military: Lain is thouroughly versed in all of the techniques regarding urban combat, both from his times on the streets and during his brief employment with a PMC.
Entertainment: Lain's absolute one-sidedness really shows in his abilities to entertain, or lack thereof. He is completely inept regarding all matters of entertaining others, he couldn't name a joke to save his life.
