→ Intimidating ;; to overawe or cow, as through the force of personality
Being a rather large boy it's not all that difficult to be intimidating, however it seems Ra has an almost scary appearance, enough to make some wary. With an almost permanent grimace, Ra does tend to appear as a fearsome boy. While he might seem a bit hostile to strangers, Ra is in no way a truly cruel boy, lewd, and mean, yes, but fearsome, perhaps not. This being said, it should also be stated that Ra is a good bit oblivious about his size and ability to force others to cower. However, this is not to say that Ra is meek, no, no rather the opposite, Ra is still a powerful boy, one that takes pride in his profound stamina and extraordinary athleticism. He's one to gloat, and one not too fond of being told to come down. With a power, and size, he's a very daunting boy, both when intentional and when not.
→ Intelligent ;; quick to comprehend
Though Ra has an uncanny ability to be horribly oblivious, Ra is in no way, shape or form a fool. Rather, he is one of wit. Games such as chess are something he truly enjoys. However, this could be conceived as "un-cool" so he tends to veer away from such "lame" things. But, often times, curiosity's grip on the boy takes a toll stronger than that of his ego. He can be found in the library, hidden in the corner, reading for hours at a time. As well as this, Ra is an amateur novelist, writing in his times of solitude. He loves to observe things, and often jots down information whenever he's interested. He has about four notebooks with drabbles of poetry, and inquiries of himself. He writes about anything from the stars to the American revolution to the religions of the world. Ra has an innocent thirst for knowledge, perhaps one of the most genuine things about him. He is one to find peace in the quiet hush of self indulgence when it comes to expanding one's intellect. Though, it is to be noted, intelligence and wisdom are two very separate qualities, not to be confused, because Ra posses little wisdom.
→ Belligerent ;; bullheaded
Much like his pokemon counterpart, Ra will do nearly anything to get his way. He's no stranger to force, as well as haggling. Often, His intimidating appearance is enough to make most back down, however, some it's not enough. Ra is one to stand for what he wants, and not allow others to sway him. With his power and intelligence, Ra has an arsenal powerful enough to make kings bow. However, he does pick his battles well, he's not one to fight about foolish material things, rather he is more aggressive over more important things such as large decisions. As a natural born leader, Ra has a habit of being bossy and rude. He's one accustomed to his ways, as he has not only been a leader, but a loner for a majority of his life. It's not that he dislikes the accompaniment of others, he just prefers being independent. Solitude equals peace and few confrontations, therefore, solitude is much simpler. But don't let his preference of independence fool you, he will stop at nothing to achieve what he feels is the right choice, even if it's obviously wrong.
→ Empathetic ;; to share someone else's feelings
An odd trait for a boy so seemingly ruthless to acquire. But, yes, Ra has a very acute sense for others' feelings and yet the majority of the time, anger or frustration is spat his way. However, opening up to Ra results in a monstrous hug, and much comfort. He's spent most of his life alone, his own choice of course, but that doesn't help the fact that he's been vulnerable and lonely. He does not regret living alone, but he's very familiar with being hurt easily, so he does take into consideration the fact that others might be hurting in a similar way. Ra isn't one to go around hugging everyone and trying to be sweet, no, he rarely show empathy which might lead you to believe he's a cruel boy, however he's fearful of other opinion on him. He considers his extreme empathy a weak spot for whatever reason. However, just because he doesn't disclose the fact that he tends to comfort ailing friends, it doesn't necessarily mean he doesn't participate in healing others' metaphorical wounds. Though he's had no rough past, others have. He's aware of that, and often warns others if they step over boundaries or do something too insensitive. Though he's often perceived as a bully, Ra is in reality no bully, but rather a remedy in some sense. He's caring, but wouldn't dare comfort you if he were in the wrong crowd, and he would hesitate to lie about lending a hand. He's a man of solitude, not one to help others, right?
→ Snarky ;; sharply critical; cutting; snide.
This quality is probably where Ra gets his bad name. He's quick to reply with sharp, witty and usually rude comments. He's quick to insult and quick to laugh at his companions. While funny to others, his words are often recklessly thrown. He's not one to automatically think of the emotions of others, though after seeing hurt expressions he often feels remorse. Ra is one to speak before thinking, provided this, the act of returning a statement with a quick insult is something satisfying for the moment, but it is something he may regret. His ability to come back so quickly is due to his intellect. Thinking quickly and not thinking at all, Ra has acquired this quality, one he is proud of but at the same time something he is shameful of. He knows how words hurt and he knows very well what his words are capable of doing. But, alas, appearing masculine has overcome his will to be kind and to supply sympathy. What a pity, really.
→ Flirtatious ;; full of playful allure
another display of his desperation to appear "masculine" Ra has a tendency to be a bit "playful", if you will. However, he does have rule of thumb to respect that a woman's body is her's and he respects when the word no is stated. What he does is all in good fun to him, but if it causes distress to the other party, what's the fun in that? He enjoys playful banter, and in a sense he means so innocently, since Ra is most likely a demisexual boy. He's one to enjoy browsing, I suppose. As long as the opposite party complies, he holds little restraint. He likes to entertain himself, what can one say.
→ Sensitive ;; easily pained, or insulted
As opposed to most of his personality, or how he likes to display as himself, Ra is a truly sensitive little boy. Though the group he surrounds himself is rough and cruel, Ra is often hurt by their harsh words and sharp tongues. It's not the fact that he can't handle what they say, no, it's not that, it's just that the words remain. Insults often settle under his skin, and when he looks in the mirror the only things visible are those ugly words. He thinks about his actions, feeling repercussions only too late. Ra may be intelligent, but he doesn't learn from his mistakes, so he's stuck in a circle that brings about a pain, a stabbing deep in his windpipe, the kind of pain that makes breathing seem like a burden. Another hidden quality, he doesn't like to admit to others - he's all too familiar with that hollow feeling that leaves a burning sensation where your heart rests. Ra's not stupid - he knows what he's done and who he's built himself up to be, what he is, but how does one go about changing this far down the line? Perhaps that's the challenge.
