Personality

Pacifist by belief, fighter by genes. Jophry's rather helpful person of calm demeanor and seriousness. His first obligation is to the people he serves and lives with. Close second is work of which he is proud and values it very highly. Romantic at heart. In times of great emotional stress he tends to seal off and, quite surprisingly, displays more aggressive stances, but his personal safeties had not yet failed him in critical spots. Although his values contain a ban on violence, he is capable of rash acts if they serve "greater good" - the concept is yet to be defined.

Behind the exterior of a reliable and decisive person Jophry has a fair share of weak points, most interlinked with past relations with his father. Some of those weaknesses are an inability to come to terms with failures, a premonition of dormant aggresiveness and a sense of competition between him and his father which is, in fact, a masked attempt to finally get his parent's attention and appreciation.

Though competent GP, Jophry is mostly an epidemiologist, but his personal interest reaches into psychology also, making an interesting mix. His personal hobbies include mountain climbing and singing. Additionally he knows a little about wines.

Major weaknesses include antitalents in engineering and helm (latter a psychological problem coming from academy accident).
