Suggested Characteristics

d8	Personality Trait
1	I tend to forget that there are other ways to solve conflict other than fighting to the death.
2	I have lost friends, some by my own hands and don't easily make new ones due to that.
3	I usually don't listen to people in higher power when they tell me to do something.
4	I'm still haunted by the memories of fighting in the pit and can see it everytime I close my eyes. I mostly see blood everywhere.
5	I'm pretty hard to scare even when somebody is holding a blade to me.
6	I tend to immediately go into a fighting stance when I hear sudden, unexpected noises.
7	I hold on to anything I have as before I escaped I had nothing.
8	I don't like being in small places because it reminds me of the cells I was in when not fighting.

d6	Ideal
1	Freedom. Nobody should be trapped and forced to do anything for someone they don't want to. If I can I will help those who are still trapped like I once was.(Chaotic)
2	Strength. In the pits only the strongest survived and if it comes to it I will kill the weak to get what I want.(Evil)
3	Revenge. I must take down my old owner and his operations to save all of the other pit fighters.(Good)
4	Community. I tend to surround myself either accidentally or Purposefully with people who care about me. Those people are worth protecting and if it comes to it fighting for.(Neutral)
5	Legacy. I won't let the pits define who I am and though the both mental and physical scars I can leave a different impact on this world. (Any)
6	Focus. Emotions tend to cloud judgement of what is right and wrong.In the pits most everyone has a sob story for why they're here and use it to manipulate me, so I focus on peoples actions not emotions on people being good or bad.(Lawful)

2	The life I lived leaves me with inescapable nightmares.
3	I will never back down from any challenge or call to fight, ever.
