Should Silent get depressed, he prefers to not rely on others and will attempt to wait it out or think his way out of his depression.
In the rare event it becomes too much for him to bear, Silent will withdraw and seek isolation deep in a cup. This has only happened a handful of times.

How does your wol / oc handle depression or depressive thoughts? Do they have someone (or something) to rely on? Isolation?

Silent doesn't get jealous. He is too focused on constantly improving himself to feel this way. If someone manages to impress him, he views it as a positive thing rather than feeling bitter or envious towards that person.

Silent views killing as regrettable, but sometimes unavoidable. If his hand is forced, it's something that won't cause him to lose sleep at night.

Silent Bramble has killed many.
His first kill was his own mother, who was tempered by Ifrit during an Amalj'aa raid when he was 13. The guilt messed him up for a long time, and learning later that tempering could be undone...gave him conflicted feelings, but what is done is done.

Has your wol / oc ever killed someone? If so, how did their first kill go? Do they still think about it; would they change the outcome of what happened there at all?

It's in the name *Silent* Bramble, yes.
Ever the dutiful fellow, he will never allow himself to utter even a word of it to anyone unless later granted permission.
Possessing the Echo himself, any attempts to pry his mind for information will be met with mental resistance of his own.

Silent is normally predictable and only ever acts unpredictably when it becomes apparent that acting "predictably" does not suit the task at hand.
Those who know Silent well know that if he has acted "unpredictably," then that means he was either frustrated or nearing his last resort.

Silent only expresses himself rarely. He much prefers the appearance of a cool, detached, and inscrutable hero.
In reality, Silent has found it harder to express himself to strangers; a side effect of suppressing for so long. If he thinks about it and applies effort, he can emote.

Silent requires at a minimum for his allies to be honest and loyal, much like himself. Silent cannot bring himself to trust those who cannot trust him.
For his travel companions, he would prefer them to be competent, and that they can handle themselves in a fight.

Silent has many flaws. He dislikes receiving help, he overworks himself and has a savior complex, still retains his prejudice towards the beastmen of Eorzea, and rarely communicates what he is thinking even to his allies.
He wants to be better, but often finds himself relapsing.

Silent would not do well in therapy. First of all, he would likely not schedule a meeting, as he feels that he does not need one. Secondly, even if he were to attend a session, Silent would simply insist that he is fine, and disclose hardly anything to the therapist.

Silent is in great health, as he often is. He eats a balanced diet, exercises regularly, and generally keeps himself in fighting shape.
Despite his older age, Silent remains in incredible shape due to his efforts and discipline, honed and refined ever since his earlier years.

Silent has only intentionally harmed a loved one in one case, that case being the slaying of his tempered mother. It was a chaotic life-or-death scenario, and the young Silent had no way to escape the encounter, leaving him with no other option but to fight past her, and he won.

Silent feels guilt for all of his failings. He wants to be an ideal hero, so failing is inexcusable.
He feels guilt regarding his mother's death, though he has mostly come to terms with it.
He also feels guilty regarding Minfilia and Papalymo, and the things he left unsaid.

Silent becomes annoyed when he gets confused. He dislikes not knowing things.
While he is old and wisened, and also intelligent, he is prideful and dislikes not being able to comprehend something. He considers it a personal failing if something eludes his understanding.

Silent doesn't usually drink to the point of inebriation, typically reserving alcohol for recreation and celebration. He has been observed to drink out of frustration rarely.
Able to hold a normal amount of alcohol, once Silent is fully drunk he becomes sleepy, irritable, and wrathful.

Silent is not a very accomplished culinarian. He can follow recipes well enough to the point where they are average, but the only dish he makes that could be considered "pretty good, actually" is smoked raptor, which is also his favorite dish. He can also dry raptor jerky rather well.

Silent is not a picky eater whatsoever. He genuinely sees nothing wrong with archon loaf and finds himself questioning why people commonly object to it.
However, he absolutely hates sweet foods. He finds that excessive sweetness makes him physically ill and will avoid sweet things.
