Myliu is a strange case, a rather intellectual boy stuck in a position that had made it hard for him to learn anything other than how to survive. He is intelligent beyond belief, able to come up with quick time strategies and decide almost instantaneously what the best course of action is even if it is a hard decision to make. He learns quickly, and can understand others emotionally fairly well. The only problem is that often times, others look down at him as someone dumb or feral as a result of his limited vocabulary and his tendency to communicate in nothing other than sounds and body movements, as well as his habit to chew on things when stressed out.

Despite this, he is a rather tenacious spirit, and doesn't let these thoughts or statements deter him from what he does. Myliu has no plans of changing, finding words often unnecessary when it comes to conversation. It takes him a while to understand social cues as a result of his upbringing and the fact that often times he is too far in his own head to pay attention to how to act around others, but he is extremely intellectually adept in understanding everything else that is spoken to him.

Which brings up the point that Myliu is rather... inept at anything that has to do with socialization. He has no concept of being polite, and is extremely hostile to most interactions and small actions. He is apathetic to a fault to those he does not particularly care for, and can get easily irritated when someone does not understand what he is trying convey and forces him to use more words than he deems necessary. He hates having his own personal space invaded (although he is a hypocrite, often unable to determine other people's personal space and limits in turn) and will get physically aggressive at the smallest of provocations. He is loyal to a fault to those he trusts as well, often blindly following them to the ends of the earth simply because he doesn't have anyone else to follow. He is not submissive, although he is far from a leader by nature, but goes his own way and simply tolerates it if anyone decides to follow.

His beliefs are firmly invested in the theory of survival. Despite being able to grow up with a group that cared for him unlike others that didn't have the luck, the idea is still engraved into his mind due to the fact that it influenced him when he was at a very young, malleable age. He is often on edge, and never gives his trust out freely, even though as a young child he seemed to trust anyone who was kind to him. The older he grew the more his psychosis started to affect him, resulting in this behavior and issues with trust and aggression. Now, it is hard for him to form new relationships beyond those he has already established, and losing any relations he already has would be a devastating blow.

He has a very bleak outlook on life and death, and accepts both as reality equally. His emotions are rather shallow when it comes to either, and he does not mourn deeply for those who had passed, instead offers them respect and then goes on his way, expecting life to continue it's course. Being emotionally attached, as far as he sees it, is a weakness that can be easily exploited in the world, and as a result he keeps most of his emotions under lock and key.

personality, in depth ( wip )

— ( adaptable ) If there is one thing that Myliu is most known for, it is his ability to adapt to any given situation that he comes across. It is in his nature to be able to do anything he can to survive, and as a result he is malleable when it comes to situations. He is not one to complain about any given change in scenario, simply accepts it as his new reality and embraces it as so. He is cunning when it comes to this, as well, able to use whatever is at his disposal seemingly minutes after being introduced to him. To put it short, if someone kidnaps him, they better hope the room is completely empty... and even then they should pray he doesn't get out.
— ( alert ) Nothing can get by Myliu if he has anything to say about it. This is a result of a mix of things, one being the ever-present survival instinct that doesn't let him miss any detail, the other his mental disorder that also makes it quite difficult. Every detail about a scene is meticulously observed and noted for later, something that attributes to his high intelligence. He can spot something fishy going on from miles away without even trying, and always has ears and eyes open and on the lookout for anything that might endanger him or something he finds worthy of protection.
— ( clear-headed ) There is a clear difference between being clear-headed and calm, the latter of which Myliu is not. No, despite his almost constant state of paranoia, Myliu is highly capable of taking things as they are and remaining stable enough to think them through without a problem. No matter the situation, he can still find it in himself to think logically and coherently about problems and find solutions for them with almost no hitch.
— ( confident ) They say that being overconfident is the first step to being a fool, in which case Myliu is on a clear path heading towards that. Myliu never rethinks his decisions, going with his gut instinct with a confidence that is immeasurable and hard to replicate. Out in the wild, it was a sign of strength. There was never a time to second guess yourself, something that Myliu carried over with him and something that continues to stick with him throughout his life. He is tenacious in his decisions, executing them with a determined focus no matter what others tell him to do.
