Private Arek Tiberius Lindemann (Born Year -13, Day 191), is the oldest son of Werner and Alexia Lindemann. He currently serves within the Empire as a member of the Imperial Army. After an education at various schools around the Corellian Sector, Lindemann, unlike his younger brother, Colyn, eschewed a university education in favour of following in the footsteps of various males of his family line by enrolling in the service of law enforcement before enlisting in the Imperial military and as such, he is a highly trained and experienced soldier.

Subject Notes

Appearance

Lindemann is a tall man of about perhaps just over 6 feet. He does not appear to be outwardly strong but there is a less noticeable strength in the wiriness of his frame. His face is perhaps more intriguing than the clothes he wears. His dark brown, almost black hair seems overly long, as if overdue for a haircut. The grey flecks pick up the colour in his blue-grey eyes, never unmoving, hold a sense of sharp awareness, curiousness and yet, betray the deepest of memories held within. Beneath a layer of thick stubble, his weathered features are as if they were chiselled from fleshy stone, fit flawlessly together, though marred only by a singular deep scar running up the left side of his face. The scar gives his face a mocking, sardonic cast which all but disappears when he smiles. His body is toned and well built, though still shows much wiriness in his frame for a humanoid of his size. A pair of powerful arms fall away from his broad shoulders to his sides. His legs, not unlike the rest of his body, could almost be two Wroshyr-trunks balancing his body above, moving with ease and sure felt confidence, though his stance and walk give the impression he carries a great weight with his every movement.

Personality & Traits

Lindemann enjoys pushing himself to the limit, both mentally and physically. Lindemann's stress levels actually drop when the stakes are higher. He is prone to boredom and mild depression when not challenged. Lindemann enjoys drinking and gambling, although the former seems to be a way for him to test his personal limits at times rather than a vice. Lindemann has been known to gamble more than he can afford to lose, although he always gambles with a plan and a clear understanding of the odds.

Lindemann is goal-oriented, but he often seeks these goals in an indirect and secretive way. He has kept many areas of his life meticulously compartmentalized, never allowing the emotional issues from the loss of his family or from relationships to intrude on his professional life. Lindemann seems to have an emotional and mental need for multiple layers of reality. He thrives when not revealing all of himself, carefully organizing the aspects of his personality he reveals to others. Thus Lindemann is excellent as burying information he does not wish to reveal, making him a very low security risk if questioned under almost any circumstance.

Lindemann seeks structure in his life. He is a man of pattern and habit. He has acquired strong tastes. This is a potential security risk. Lindemann both thrives under structure yet finds subtle ways of rebelling against it. He is not self-destructive, but he can be a challenge to his superiors. Lindemann uses humor as a shield and a weapon. He is skilled at making cutting remarks that reveal insecurities of others or mock death, danger and risk.

Most importantly, Lindemann is deeply loyal to institutions. After his mother's death, Lindemann embraced his Corellian roots. His concept of his nationality is a large part of his identity. This is reflected in some of his social attitudes, which seem to embrace an identity of the not too distant past. When pressed, Lindemann seems to identify with the notion of helping to 'protect the realm', of 'serving the monarch' and the ideals embodied in the mythic notion of chivalry.
