    Lysimachos Ptolemaios

    Background:

    Lysimachos is clever and outspoken, but his good qualities are somewhat offset by his aversion to physical exertion. He is more healthy and fit than his older brother, but this advantage is offset by his general lack of motivation. He often uses his abilities to convince others to do his will but his will is often egalitarian and populist in nature. That is not to say that he is spineless, and would always avoid personal action: he just prefers not to be an active player in most affairs. He generally cares about others, and worries for the war-stricken common folk. He opposes high taxation, and wants to improve the overall quality of life for the populace of the kingdom.

    He especially fears battle, and wants to deploy at the rear of his forces whenever he gets his first command, believing that it is more important to have a good understanding of the battlefield than to act 'heroically'. However, his pessimism and gloominess often anger and worry his subordinates during battle. His overall pessimistic nature is slightly offset by his strong religious beliefs.

    In particular, he has a love for the sea and for trading, and wishes for his father to place him in a fleet command position, that is, if he must serve in the military.
