ROLE-PLAYING NOTES
Andreas is a ruthless but passionate and honorable man still trying to crawl out from under a number of past traumas. His sister’s death, his own torture, and the fact that he’s the son of one of the most evil men in existence weigh heavily on Andreas. He’s trying to be a better person, but it’s not always easy and he knows he could slip back into full-blown villainy. Still, Swordsman hopes the Thunderbolts will give him purpose, redemption, and his dear Andrea back.
Though far more concerned with his sister and his own freedom than the well-being of most of his teammates, he feels a bond to longtime Thunderbolt members Moonstone and Songbird.

Exusiai's Notes This is one of my favorites of the Thunderbolt marshal era. This guy was really trying to redeem himself, much like Songbird. I loved his backstory and how they took a lesser bad guy and turned him into a pretty cool bad ass.
