Personality: David is quiet, friendly, and tends to come off more as a big brother then as a commander. It's not that he doesn't have a commanding presence; quite the opposite in fact. He just tends to be more informal than most in a leadership position. He feels that the more you make a group feel like family, the more they will treat each other as such, and the better they will work. Considering his brilliant career, his philosophy seems to work.
The other side to David's personality comes when he is forced to drop the mask of civility he wears. Beneath is is a cool, calculating genius. He focuses his determination towards a goal, and will not back down until he's achieved it. He may change tactics, sometimes leaving his goal alone for months, before coming back to it, but he will never give up until he's achieved his objective. This is what makes him such a brilliant commander... and such a frightening individual.
Quirks: David often has difficulty feeling compassion. As such, he doesn't empathize well with those under his command. He tends to be the type of person that you would come to in order to solve a problem, but not someone you'd like to just hear you out. Sometimes, he misses everything you were saying and just cryptically gives you and answer that, later, was exactly what you needed to hear. Most people don't bother coming to him just to chat, which puts a wall between him and everyone around him.
A minor quirk that most people don't notice is that David tends not to touch anyone, when avoidable. He doesn't go out of his way, but this lack of human contact is extremely telling about who and what he is. He is consciously separating himself from those around him, and taking a step back from his humanity. He views himself as separate, and it shows.
Focus: David's focus ability is one of the rarest, and most powerful. It shares ties with
Lizbeth's but is even more firmly rooted in his Sooni Heritage. He can feel and manipulate the threads of time. If he so chose, he can reopen old wounds, he can delay a killing blow hours or even days. He can even influence future events, helping to force one particular outcome over another. His focus is more about knowing the past present and future then it is about controlling it, however. Still, some of his abilities dwarf those of even the Overseers. Especially since he is one of the few focus users who were never trained by the Overseers. They have refused to recruit him as an agent, or to kill him. No one is quite sure why.
History: David was born to a human father, Admiral Case and a Sooni mother. He was very close to his sister, Glyse, and to his mother. However, when he was 13 and had been accepted into the League Military Academy, his mother was killed. While officially, it was a pirate attack, David, Glyse and his father know the truth: she was killed because she was one of the only surviving members of the Sooni Government.
David's mother's death deeply affected Him. Instead of hardening him, or filling him with anger, it actually softened him. Her funeral showed him that one had to be respectful of death, and that how a person lives their life is just as important as what they did with it, sometimes more so. As he progressed in his skills and abilities, he began to understand how important this event had been to him. As such, he has always been exceedingly grateful to his mother for her sacrifice. She knew she was going to die, and why it was so important she did so.
David has had an unparalleled career. He was the youngest wing commander in League history, has an inhuman kill ratio in his fighter, and is the only person to ever be promoted across service branches. (He was promoted from Wing Commander to Captain.)
