Distinguishing Features: Michael's wings are, quite unusually, a red-tipped white color.

Psychological Characteristics

Personality:

Like all Elysians, Michael is arrogant, though to a lesser extent than most. Whilst most Elysians are dignified and noble, Michaels seems to be more rough around the edges. Raised to believe that he is innately superior to all other species, Michael's superiority complex was almost shattered completely whilst fighting along Nekovalkyrja forces during the battle of elysia. Loyal to a fault, Michael willingly requested transfer to the SAOY to prove that Elysians and Nekovalkyrja could work together, this however was just an excuse to hide his inherent desire for battle. Always the optimist, Michael can find the light in any situation, or make it for himself. Despite this, Michael has something of a short temper, and is easily frustrated by things not going his way. Michael also has an incredibly violent streak with near sociopathic tendencies when fighting is involved, enjoying the rush of battle, the thrill of killing an enemy, and the feeling of victory. In short, he loves fighting as long as it paves the way for his future, and despite his (mostly) friendly and pleasant demeanor he considers his purpose in life to be to kill the enemy to make way for his goal in life? That goal: To marry a nice intelligent Elysian woman, settle down in the village he was raised, and live out his days as a farmer and a parent in a peaceful world where war won't touch his people.

Recently, Michael has come down with a bout of depression, over realizing that he'll never achieve his life's goal, and is destined to be a loner. This manifests as moodiness, anger, irrational anger, and pessimism.

Preferences and Goals

  • General Likes: Michael enjoys the simple yet refined food he grew up eating, and the feel of soft grass under his feet. The Caelisolan likes the company of his peers, and enjoys the opportunity to spread his wings(Something that he, unfortunately, does not get to do much). A dedicated patriot, Michael loves his home country of Elysia, and despises any and all outside invaders.
  • General Dislikes: Michael has an intense dislike of the NMX, and of the Neko Supremecist factions within Yamatai. He also has an intense dislike for the Lorath, for reasons pertaining to the societal practices and matriarchialism; and a massive hateboner for socialists. Secretly, Michael believed that he hated all Nekovalkyrja and non-elysians, though his experiences onboard the Eucharis (And the influence of Neko like Lime and Inoue Kiko) have given rise to the slowly growing belief that he doesnt hate them, he only hates them for what seems to be the coming extinction of his species. Seeing and interacting with neko, yamataian, and nepleslians in person, combined with his naturally chivalric values, has made Michael realize that he can't hate them all without basis. However, due to the reveal of the truth behind the Plague,
  • Religion:Michael is a devout worshiper of the Elysian Orthodox church, almost fanatical, and considers anything that directly contradict or insults his faith heresy.
  • Favorite Color: Vermillion
  • Favorite Musical Genre: Elysian Lamiera
  • Lucky Number: 1
  • Clothing: Gavril prefers loose fitting, easy to wear clothing when relaxing, but when on a job or in public the Elysian will wear the most appropriate clothing.
  • Sexuality: Bisexual, leaning towards heterosexual.
  • Tastes in Women: Secret.
  • Distastes in Women: Secret.
  • Goals: Michael is in it for all the bitches, bitches wants to, once the war is over, get married and settle down and have lots of adorable children.

  • YE 8 The PNUgen Plague is unleashed, on which the Elysians are blame, occurs. Retaliatory genocide of Elysians leads to Gavril and Michael being taken in as orphans by a lay preacher of the Elysian faith named Henri Papadopoulos.
  • YE 14 Elysian invasion of hell, and Yamataian counter invasions of both Hell and the Heavens. Papadopoulos family manages to be among the lucky few plebians who evacuate to safe ones before the peace treaty is signed.

  • YE 23 Fourth Elysian war. New Elysia is defeated and annexed by Yamatai. Most Elysian youths, especially plebians such as Gavril and Michael, feel the yoke of the oppression more heavily than the patrician elite. The brothers are constantly in and out of trouble with Yamataian occupation forces. As a result, reprisals by Nekovalkyrja lead to their adoptive mother, Magdalena Papadopoulos, being seriously injured. She survives, but is crippled and left wingless as a result. Angered further by this, both brothers join the covert resistance against Yamataian rule, Gavril using his tech savvy to fix things while Michael became a front-line guerrilla fighter for the resistance.
  • YE 28 Elysia regains independence. The two brothers both enlist in the Elysian Celestial Navy, both proving to be gifted in their given fields. Gavril trains as a mechanical technician and engineer, whilst Michael becomes a member of the naval infantry. gavril also spent some time cross-training as a sniper, something that was partially forced on him.
  • YE 30 As a reward for distinguished military service, Gavril and Michael both receive Caelisolan bodies as part of the standard upgrade for military Plebians, with Michael receiving his first due to the higher priority given to Naval Infantry.
  • YE 31 The Elysian Celestial Empire, under β€œadvice” from the Yamataian Star Empire, becomes a semi-autonomous part of the YSE. Michael continues to serve first in the ECN, and then in the Star Army's tenth fleet. Michael, fighting in the defense of his homeland, sees combat for most of the year, surviving every engagement that he encounters, using the skills he learned as a young guerrilla.

Onboard the Eucharis

  • December, YE 32 Michael requests reassignment to the SAOY's first Expeditionary Fleet, on the grounds that it would allow him to take the fight to the NMX.
