Some feed back on the concepts ofthis story I'm setting up.

[Colonel Z.e.r.o.]

I'm considering this character, Anton Von Wulfram into the fray, though I'm unsure whether he may be a minor or major character (or possibly in between).

He's partially inspired by Sesshomaru's haughtiness and androgynous appearance from Inuyasha.

Anton Von Wulfram is the older brother of Katarine Von Wulfram. Born two years before Katarine. Like his sister he is both highly respected and well known for his linage. However, unlike is sister, he is somewhat feared by those directly below him. Often pejoratively called "Astor" rather than his real name by others in his absence due to his personality being very ambitious and slightly predator-like. He, like Katarine, shares great interest in family affairs, but unlike Katarine, his interest lean towards the professions on his mother's side, such as the mineral and natural resource economy, and, more precisely, the political maneuvering often involved.

Anton could be considered a cross between Empress Zuna and Katarine (read above to understand the comparisons). Like his sister, he is generally benign, calm and collective, often seeing petty attacks directed at his character not to be worth his time. However, like Zuna, when a threat does reveal itself, given the situation, Anton will react to it with swift and merciless action. He speaks and acts in a subtle manner, almost never raising his voice and showing only slight dissatisfaction to even some of the most infuriating insults.

Despite being male, Anton is very similar in appearance to his younger sister. He has long green hair in roughly the same style as hers, green eyes, pale white skin, and a very slim build, almost slimmer than Katarine's due to her activity in the military, unlike himself. When they were younger, he would often be confused with Katarine, even to the extent he was believed to be a younger sister of Katarine. He is very annoyed by this common error. Despite his seemingly relaxed reaction to most annoyances, he shows little remorse for those who insult him for his androgyny.

Despite Katarine's somewhat superior shape, Anton however, is still quite able to defend himself from physical attacks, including her's. When he first encounters Lenox, he is mistaken for Katarine, showing mild discomfort, he then introduces himself as Katarine's elder brother. However, as he begins to introduces himself to Lenox's family, friends, and associates, their reaction to his feminine qualities become apparent. Some mistake him for the "little sister" of Katarine, while Lenox's step father jokingly comments on him now having two beautiful "girlfriends". Later on Anton meets up with Lenox and confronts him on the issue. However Lenox misreads his passive-aggressive stance and tries to calm him by first apologizing for their behavior and then jokingly agreeing with everyone's initial thought, infuriating Anton. With this, he says in a quiet but demanding voice: "you will respect my manhood....even if I have to separate you from yours." He then reaches inside his coat to reveal a short staff with a black spade at the end, which extents to reveal it's nature as a spear. He quickly demonstrates his skill with this weapons before charging Lenox. After mostly evading Anton's attacks, Lenox is finally cornered and pinned to the ground. Katarine then intervenes, resulting in a brief skirmish, ending with Anton saying "you may be the second to follow father, but you hardly deserve the Wulfram". He then leaves an exhausted and somewhat shaken Katarine with little sign of fatigue.

Anton's attitude towards Lenox rest in between his younger sister and his father's. He isn't outwardly kind to Lenox, however, he bears no hostility towards him as his father Rudolf despite his origin. He does however insist on calling him "Moritz" rather than Lenox because of his dark skin. Despite nearly killing him earlier, Anton provides him with helpful information about Katarine, their father, Zuna, and the Empire as a whole, allowing him work and act more appropriately in their presence. He does so with Zuna to a greater extent. While initially intimidated by Anton, he realizes her insecurities and helps her past them. She and he can often be found discussing high intellect topics regarding politics or societal issues.
