(Have some face headcanon: https://alternativeteamwork.rpg-board.net/t79-look-at-my-face-my-face-is-amazing)

Name: Rémy Artois

Team: Ravishing, Remarkable and RED.

Personality (300 word minimum):
Of all the classes in the Team Fortress teams, the Spy is by far the one with the most personal grudges. Why? It is because he makes things personal, for other people, while keeping himself guarded and distant with the use of his mask. Thanks to this, we do no know much about the Spy. We can easily determine that he is French (though occasionally he will speak Italian or a variety of phrases from other languages. He is always sharply dressed and well presented, though this shows a very skewed set of priorities. His concern for his suits is almost as focused as his concern for himself. Though, this may be his way of reminding others that his clothes are more expensive than their own and therefore should be treated with respect.

On the surface, he can act like a dignified gentleman and he can dress and talk like one, but when it boils down to it he is as petty and rude as any other man on either side. His taunts range from better thought out jabs that hit in the most cruel places and others...well...he tends to make his taunts based on the surface of a person. He makes jabs at appearances, sexuality and living situations and sniggers to himself about this. He's a sneaky character who takes pride in knowing the more intimate details of ones life. After all, how can you mimic an enemy when you haven't slept with their mother?

As a support class, his work is sometimes difficult to see (not just because he becomes invisible either). This leaves him open to be berated by the offensive and defensive classes, and occasionally even the other support classes. However, he has a number of duties to fulfil on the field, all of which cause a great deal of suffering for the others involved. Generally, it is his job to dismantle the machines built by the enemy Engineer with his trusty electro sapper, he does this with great glee. Another large portion of his work revolves around his trusty set of knives, he ends the lives of enemies by sneaking up on them and bringing a knife down into their backs. Most commonly his victims will be Medics and Snipers, which has earned him the nickname of 'Backstabbing Snake'.

While a lot of his personality seems rather detestable, he has his good qualities...at least in some regard. He is referred to as a 'Lady Killer' in his wiki, this is because he is both charming and alluring in both looks and personality. Let's face it, Ladies love a bit of mystery. In his time on base, he was able to coax the BLU scout's Mother into having a brief but intimate affair with him. From pictures collected by BLU Spy, it would appear he treated her kindly, holding her hand and acting like the perfect gentleman with her, it's no wonder why she fell so easily. It should be noted that even while disguised as the BLU Scout, he seems genuinely surprised to see those pictures. Even Spies can be spied on, after all. My personal headcanon is that he did indeed fall for the lady in blue and he truly valued the time he shared with her, but he leads a dangerous life and seeing those pictures reminded him of this. He broke off the affair to protect her and her family (but not the scout).

Although it will be hidden under a mask of selfishness, he will protect those he cares for. He makes it seem as though he has deemed them incompetent, when in actuality it pains him to see people close to him suffering. He has seen enough of it. He takes on the big brother role quite often (though certain Snipers will call it 'mothering') he mocks and he teases and he pushes people to their limits of irritation, but he would kill for them and would hide the body and evidence so that they would never be burdened with the knowledge. He fusses because nothing pleases him more than seeing someone expand outside of what they have become used to, he likes to see people trying new things and pushing their limits to become something greater. So that they can rival him.

He likes to keep things interesting.

Character History (give us their life story - 250 word minimum):

Spy does not have a tragic back story. Just a regular story. He was raised by a single mother in France, he was not abused or really mistreated, but he did envy the lower class families who could experience a real family. He was always told his father had died in an accident, and being a child he took that as word of god. He was spoilt by his mother, but she had more important things to focus on. This was when he began to manipulate emotions, when he realised he could talk his way into getting what he wants and when he could sabotage the lives of her various boyfriends.
The threads of deceit wore thin as hints and clues lead to his eventual discovery that his Father had not died a tragic death, rather he had walked out on his proud mother. Most people would breakdown and become bitter, Spy took it as a new life goal. The very idea of such an intricate web of secrets being woven right behind his back intrigued him more than anything. He aspired to be the master of those webs, and of the strings. He wanted to be the puppet master. As he grew older, he grew bored with his studies and travelled around, learning languages. Eventually his manipulative nature got him tangled into all sorts of messes, and he loved it. He became a Spy for the thrill of it, to live vicariously through the people he spied on in a time where nobody trusted each other and Spies were highly paid. Eventually, he was offered an independent contract through RED and was quick to snap it up after seeing the amount he was being offered.
