[Logan]

1.What do you think of your name?
Well, whatever halfwit chose McCloud as my last name should be shot. I like Logan, though. It definitely reflects who I am as a person. You know, I'm like that Wolverine guy. Kinda. I'll mess you up if you get in my face, and I'm kinda a loner tho I play well with others at times, too.

2.How often do you like to knock boots?
What kind of strange slang you throwing my way? But really, not often enough. I'm a pretty laid back guy, and I'm not tied down to anyone. With that said, it happens when it happens, just not all that often.

3.How often do you have nightmares?
I used to have them all the time back when I dealt with the voices in my head. Visions and crap were just insane. Hell, I think at times I was insane. But then I dealt with the cause and so far, so good. Though, there have been a couple of recent minor lapses.

8.When you look at a stranger, what is the first thing you notice?
Ooh, that's tough. Guys I tend to notice the way they hold themselves and conduct themselves. Chicks I tend to notice their smiles and eyes. The rest is cosmetic or simply less important...or something.

Uh...Salvar? I've been to some weird places in the Citadel's magical arenas, but it has been a long time.

Reading, meditation, chatting it up with the ship's crew, or just messing with people's minds. Mental manipulation is kinda fun.

11.What are your political beliefs?
To put it simply, I fall under the ideology that the benefit of the one is as important as the benefit of the many. One should not overrule the other without just cause to do so. So in short: everyone matters as much as everyone else. Oh, and rules can go f--- off.

12.Where do you see yourself in 20 years?
Either hanging out with old man Vince Cain or with Madison Freebird wrecking everyone's faces. There really is no gray area here.

Alcohol. Locals tend to be the best, but I'll take any ale, any beer, any whiskey, any rum, any bourbon...you getting the picture yet?

15.What habit of yours annoys others the most?
Telepathy seems to annoy some people, mostly because they just assume I can either twist their thoughts OR read their thoughts. Neither is true. I can only communicate using it...for now.

16.What do you want to be remembered for?
I want to be remembered for simply being a friend to as many people as I could. It is important for me to be the guy who is always there for people when they need it because so many have been there for me as I needed them.
