Personality:canon Demo
Niall loves his job, that’s one thing for sure. It’s a refreshing thing to be able to turn up to work with a sword and targe on a whim when most of his previous work involved solely… well, explosives. Not that he doesn’t like those! Quite the contrary, in fact; he loves the danger of using them on the battlefield. Niall is fairly reckless in combat, perfectly willing to risk his life if it secures his team’s victory. He’s super-loyal to RED and couldn’t dream of betraying them… although honestly, it’s quite a surprise he can even remember the mission objective under the influence of alcohol. When marginally less drunk he is capable of being genuinely cunning, formulating and executing sticky traps in a few seconds - which is often the only time he has.
When sober, Niall is pretty amiable, friendly to whomever returns the sentiment. He’s interested in sightings of the paranormal, if somewhat resistant to the notion that such occurrences aren’t real - after all, the tale of Bombinomicon is not something to take lightly. (This is totally inspired by Respawn of the Dead I’m sorry :I His backstory is pretty different to Tavish’s despite both of them losing one eye at some point, but I like the idea that it became something of a famous ghost story back in Scotland.) He’s actually quite worried about losing his one eye because he can’t imagine life without vision, but this apparently doesn’t stop him from making some pretty insane decisions in a fight.
Of course, that’s mainly due to his drinking habits. Oddly, being drunk seems to make him a better Demoman… at the cost of his being incredibly emotionally volatile and, of course, being far less aware of his surroundings.
So yeah just standard Demoman stuff, I guess.
Likes: The paranormal (better categorized under ‘interests’, I suppose? he considers it quite a threat), explosives, archaic weaponry, alcohol, traditional bagpipe music (what do you expect), being sociable. Usually.
Dislikes: The BLU team (but only the team as a unit; he thinks he wouldn’t care much about them if they met during ceasefire), his alcoholism (he loves drink and the act of drinking and hell, even getting drunk. he just hates the consequences and his dependency on alcohol)… IDEK what else we’ll see what happens along the road.
Fears/phobias: Going blind. It’s the one loss he doubts he can actually take.
Favourite colour: Crimson.
Pets: Nope.
