About: History/personality

Soren is a man of privilege.  He was born to the Lord and Lady Grann of Geilund, a (fictonal) state outside of Hamburg, Germany, where he was raised by no less than 100 family servants at any given time.  He was raised to know and feel that he was superior to anyone outside of their estate, although he could never truly wire himself to embrace that manner of thinking.  Compared to his three younger siblings, he was the one that was favored by the people in the surrounding towns simply due to the fact that he didn't treat them like they were nothing more than peasants; Soren saw them as people.  That wasn't to say that he was against his family in any sense of the word--he loved them and they loved him back, even if he didn't adopt their same lavish and indulgent lifestyle.

That being said, he had his vices.  The eldest child of the Grann family was known for his seclusion.  Often times, he would up and leave the estate during the middle of the night to make the journey up to his family's cabin located deep in the woods of Northern Germany.  There was nothing but trees whitened by hoarfrost, lakes frozen by a forever cold, and heaps of snow for as far as the eye could see.  Soren also thoroughly enjoyed books and video games, particularly RPGs for their world-building, detailed storylines and faraway lands that seemed so much more compelling than the one he lived in.  It was almost like he didn't have a choice but to try Sword Art Online when the VRMMO first popped into the scene, it was the escape he was looking for.

Soren has always been known to go by the beat of his own drum.  Yes, more often than not, he's helpful and overly generous when it comes to assisting others but that's only because its what he wants to do.  He lives his life on a whim in comparison to the remainder of his family, who abide by strict schedules and habit, a trait he inherited from his mother who was very similar in her youth.

Virtues:

Kind-hearted - Soren is kind-hearted in game and out.  For as big and powerful of a man as he is, he would do everything in his power to not harm another living creature.  His capacity to care for people knows no bounds and he will always do what he can to help others.

Strong-willed - His resolve is unbreakable.  He vowed to get him and everyone he cared for out of this game alive and there is nothing that anyone can do to stop him, not even Kayaba himself.  No matter what hardships Soren faces, he will always press on and do his best to make it through.

Loyal - The friendships he forges with others are not just relationships of convenience, they are eternal bonds.  Once that bond is established, there is no limit to the lengths Soren would go to for that friend.

Flaws:

Selfless (Too willing to help) - Too often will he put off his own tasks in order to help a friend or struggling newbie.  Much of his delay in developing as a player is due to sticking in the lower levels of Aincrad in order to help out others.

Stubborn - The flip side of being strong-willed, Soren is stubborn.  Once his mind is made up, it's nearly impossible to change it.  That doesn't mean he isn't reasonable but the argument to convince him otherwise would have to be terribly powerful.

Reserved - While Soren may strive to help others and be an overall good player, he does not let many people in.  Some people can go their whole life smiling and being nice on the outside but on the inside, never be truly happy.  Whether he's suffering or not on the inside is of no consequence, he'll put on his best and never let it show.

Reclusive - Sometimes, when the world and it's people become too much to handle, Soren disappears.  Outside of SAO, he would slip away to his family's cabin to capture the solitude he so desperately sought.  Generally, he does this without saying a word to anyone, letting everyone to worry and wonder where he had gone.  He has no problem with being by himself and can go days, if not weeks, at a time without seeing another face.
