Information, Personality and Description As the
oldest
Immortal, Methos is rather tight lipped about
himself.
He will go to great lengths to preserve his life,
however, he does have a soft spot where Duncan
MacLeod
is concerned. He has a tendency to be quite
clinical
and cold at times, and is very calculating and
conniving (when he wants to be), also has a
genius
level intelligence and a dry sense of humor. Has
the
build of an athlete (runner) with a lean,
muscular
body and a big nose (he said so himself) Speaks
with a
noticeable British accent, although he is not
English.
He has a quiet, soft spoken nature in general and
an
almost shy streak at times. He is charismatic and
makes friends easily. He likes mortals in general
(although perhaps not as much as MacLeod) but
tries
his best not to become too close to any as he
knows
what will happen in the long run. Immortals on
the
other hand have a much less favorable light in
his
eyes. They get the more cynical and cool parts of
his
personality unless they strike his good side as
MacLeod and a few others have. He prefers to stay
out
of the Game and has not taken a student in over a
thousand years.
Any special skills?: Carries papers for almost
all
professions.
Brief history, or description of/story behind
first
death:
Unsure of circumstances of first death,
Methos
can only remember as far back as the first head
he
took. The man he is today is greatly different
than
the man he was so long ago. During the early part
of
his 5000+ years Methos was a part of the Four
Horsemen
of the Apocalypse. This lasted for a thousand
years.
During that time he was one of the evilest and
most
feared figures in the World. He was responsible
for
countless numbers of death and massive
destruction. He
regrets those actions now and says this of his
actions: “Times were different then, I was
different
then. It is one of a thousands regrets.”
Has met many a historical figure over the years
(including Caesar, Cleopatra, Lord Byron, and
Mary
Shelley). He has spent much of life after the
Horsemen
in quieter settings all around the world. He
withdrew
from the Game and took on a life of quiet
contemplation. He enjoys studying and learning as
well
as preserving things so this life suited him
perfectly.
Methos joined the Watchers in the late 80’s,
under the
guise of a graduate student named Adam Pierson,
and
became his own chronicler. He figured what better
way
to ensure that he would remain a myth than
control the
info on himself.
His life was going smoothly and
rather dully until Duncan MacLeod entered it.
MacLeod
found out who he was and befriended him. He also
brought out Methos’s conscious and made him take
an
active role in things once again. At the time of
the
plague he was spending some time vacationing in
Canada.
