Description
Edit: I didn't like how it turned out originally so I fixed his pose and proportions and also worked a bit on details.
General Endri Larmos- commander of Robanian armed forces from the later half of the invasion by Chergaria, and throughout the Westerlands wars- pictured chewing anxiously on the end of his pen whilst in attendance at the Barlimy Conference, 525. The conference was held just as the fighting in Robania had begun drawing to a close, and was the first meeting of all leaders representing the Commonwealth and her allies, including Robania. Also, it was General Larmos' notorious first-impression on the key players in the conflicts to come. He was said to "squirm and fidget an awful lot; only spoke when specifically addressed; and never seemed to maintain eye-contact".
Today, General Endri Larmos is remembered as "the man who saved Robania using naught but his wits, the heroic, yet ill-prepared men and women under his command, and their sub-par equipment": A decisive and cunning strategist, a resourceful master of deception, and a pioneer of armored warfare. He is less remembered, however, for his complete social ineptitude, reclusive personality, arsenal of motor ticks, and alarmingly high-strung, unhealthily obsessive work ethic. His early career was spent on the battlefield as an NCO, albeit briefly, during the Lords' Uprising, before his departure to the officers' academy. Though he nonetheless passed with flying colors, he struggled with anxiety, and was said to have been on suicide watch leading up to his graduation. His past on the battlefield went hand in hand with an illusion of a relaxed, unwound, yet nonetheless disciplined character created by the morale department, selling his image as a "Commoner's General", a "Soldier in Command of Soldiers". This was crucial in earning him the respect of those under his command, by undermining the stereotype of command positions being held by indifferent nobles whose sole qualification was wealth. In reality, he could be considered frighteningly lacking in empathy, and admitted on several occasions to seeing his troops as assets rather than human beings, "non-expendable only due to the fact that they're not easily or quickly replaced, and whose deaths can cause the loss of valuable equipment and battlefield muscle".
