HUGO ADRIAAN VAN DEN BERG
Daddy-O,
You got the swagger of a champion.
Too bad for you,
You just can't find the right companion.
I guess when you have one too many,
Makes it hard it could be easy.
Who you are, that's just who you are baby.
Womanizer woman-womanizer you're a womanizer, oh, womanizer oh, you're a womanizer baby.
You got the swagger of a champion.
Too bad for you,
You just can't find the right companion.
I guess when you have one too many,
Makes it hard it could be easy.
Who you are, that's just who you are baby.
Womanizer woman-womanizer you're a womanizer, oh, womanizer oh, you're a womanizer baby.
Nickname(s): Hugo, Hugh
Nationality: Dutch
Age: Twenty-four
Gender: Male
Alliance: Black Order
Job: Head of Intelligence [If that's okay. If not, then he can be a Finder.]
Appearance: Hugo is a person that is very clearly European, especially Dutch. His hair is a bright -- although not bleached -- blond color. It's wavy and therefore takes on an almost shaggy eloquence; the strands are long, but in reality it starts layering off at the ear. His eyes are a brilliant blue that in some lights appear nearly violet. In terms of body build, he's fairly average; five foot ten inches and one hundred fifty-seven pounds. The man's muscles are small but present, for the labor that his job entails, but he doesn't go particularly out of his way for that kind of thing.
Personality: Oftentimes, Hugo's personality is simply undecipherable. Why? Because he tends to speak offhand comments in Dutch, without even realizing it. The language of the Black order was never one that came automatic for him; it took forever to learn, and it's hard for him to remember which language he's speaking in when he's not consciously thinking about it. That, and the fact that he's often laid-back looking in appearance, as it seems to be a natural expression for him. But he does have a wide range of almost-comical emotions depending on the situation, giving him an appreciated sense of humor at times. And underneath his outer shell he's extremely intelligent. It shows in situations where he'll often know what's going to happen before it does, and can be quite manipulative at times because he can easily predict outcomes; he's often one step ahead of peers and opponents alike. Hugo likes to feel in control if he can be, and will easily adapt if he can. Also, he's a man who would never let his fellow workers fall into harm's way if he can help it. He'll selflessly put himself int he danger instead -- often failing to think his actions through at those points. On a side note, a hobby of his is women; although still rather young in age, Hugh has a tendency to be constantly dating whenever he can find the time.
Likes: Women, dating, being in control, lounging, his job.
Dislikes: Feeling helpless/out of control, being at a disadvantage, having to speak non-Dutch so much, being dumped, being lectured/scolded, boring things/being bored, being too busy.
Interests/Hobbies: Dating, women, his job, lounging around, writing.
Strengths: Intelligence, perceptiveness, [non-cultural] adaptability, being funny, patience, staying calm in the right situations, selflessness towards comrades.
Weaknesses: Being overrun by emotions [it does happen occasionally], underestimating others' capabilities, drinking habits, differentiating Dutch from the language sued by the Black Order, cultural adaptability.
NOAH APPLICATIONSAbilities: N/A
History: Hugo was born and raised along the mountainous portions of the Netherlands [hence his name: "Van den Berg" means "Of the mountain"]. His family is made up of farmers. In the densly-populated Netherlands, though, agriculture is hard-pressed and often stressful work; as a result, you had to be clever in order to keep your business running smoothly and profitably. So, it was challenges that Hugo grew up with, solving them and taking them on eagerly -- that trait is very prominent today with his given line of work. But although he was excellent at problem-solving, he was never much of a farmer, and at the age of eighteen he gained his family's blessing and left home in search of something he could really devote himself to. A nineteen-year old Hugo was staying briefly in Amsterdam one day when he got caught up in a battle; Exorcists vs. Akuma that grew quite out of control until the streets were caught up in the affair. He saw it as a challenge, and without even thinking managed to quell the fight until the Exorcists prevailed over the Akuma. They were grateful for the help, but surprised that such a young and clearly poor gentleman was capable of such assistance. They invited him to accompany them back to the Black Order headquarters. And he, having seen no prospects worthy of his attention in Amsterdam, accepted the offer. And the order instantly fell to his liking, pulling him in like a magnet. He hasn't moved since, finding that his current job is the perfect one for a guy like him.
