2.PERSONALITY
Norbert is patient and diligent. He likes to lead an active life, but casual acquaintances from bars do not interest him much - in life he tries to gather around himself close people with whom he feels comfortable, and alienates all others. He has a calm temperament that doesn't encourage risky ventures that get him into trouble, but he also has his flaws. La Croix finds it difficult to work productively to achieve his goals, and to change things in life all the more so. Stability, even if less comfortable than what could potentially come as a reward for taking risks, is more familiar.
3.BIOGRAPHY
In many families, there are those who go against the will of their parents, ruining their future in the process. Norbert is one such offspring. The La Croix family is quite a strong middle-class family, living in Orleanais, where their main livelihood is making and selling wine.
Eventually the head of the family decided to retire and after his departure the family business passed into the hands of the eldest son, without affecting the youngest in any way. This arrangement allowed Norbert to spend his days and nights carefree, but did not give the fullness of life. This frustrated the young man, and eventually the younger son decided to create his own destiny and simply left, joining the Gallic Metal Service.
The family did not accept this and attempts were made to force the negligent child to return. Using the connections he quickly built, the lad still managed to stay in the corporation, even though the family tried to bribe his immediate superiors to throw him out. But despite La Croix's relative wealth, the gold reserve and the appetite of the corrupt top brass could not satisfy each other, and soon the head of the family waved goodbye to the negligent son and let him go.
From then on, Norbert's days of surviving on a geotechnical engineer's salary began - enough to cover most, but not all, of his whims. The situation worsened after the coup and the fall of the Royal regime - Gallia was slowly but surely slipping into a financial crisis.
Seeing that even with the return of some of the King's troops and the re-forming of the Confederation into the Union, the situation in Gallia was only getting worse, the now young man with experience behind him decided to try his luck at the only home with a minimum of prejudice regarding Gauls - Rheinland, and its mining corporation Kruger. However after a few years working for Kruger Norbert decided to switch to less pro-governmental corporation where independent thinking is appriciated more than allegiance to the current regime and applied to the ALG Waste Disposal's branch named SEO.
