CHARACTER
Name: Milo Minderbinder
Canon/OC: Catch-22
Canon Point: Episode 4
Journal: itemize
Age: 27
Canon World
Earth, World War II era. Mid-war, specifically, and a little exaggerated because it's satire.
History
Please provide a summary of key points in your character's history in no more than 500 words. Bullet points are fine. If there is a wiki history for your character available, please also provide a link in addition to your summary. We're less interested in a list of every event in a character's canon/life, and more interested in a description of key moments that shaped the character.

Personality
Please describe your character's personality in 300-500 words. No need to touch on every aspect of their being, but do hit the key traits and motivations (as you see them) and demonstrate balance.
Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths:
- You need a fast talker? Milo Minderbinder can talk anyone into or out of a paper bag if you need him to. In fact, he'll talk the same man into the paper bag he just talked him out of, at twice the price.
- D'ya like coffee? Tea? How about sugar or cream to put in your hot beverage of choice? Milo Minderbinder can get those for ya. He makes friends fast and deals faster. Somehow, someway, he always manages to get that hot commodity and he ain't stingy about sharing with his friends.
- Capisci l'italiano? You might never hear Milo speak more than a few words of a foreign language but he clearly understands at least four other than English. He'll have a leg up learning to communicate with native Thedosians.
- Cool as a cucumber, that's Milo Minderbinder. He's calm under pressure and always ready to make the best out of a bad situation.
Weaknesses:
- Greed. If it's between a selfless act and a profit, he's gonna choose the profit, even if he might say he's gonna be selfless.
- Even though he's a trained soldier, he's not much of a fighter.
- Also, he's a ginger so he burns easy.
Suggested Nerfs
None needed, he's just a regular ol hooman.
Arrival Inventory
In Milo's dream, he'll be in a cargo plane with roughly fifty goats, his best friend Yossarian, some nameless crew and his trusty Italian valets. Crates of black market foodstuffs will be aboard the plane, and a suitcase of chocolate bars, instant coffee, and a few tins of loose-leaf darjeeling tea as well. He's wearing his lieutenant's uniform and a leather bomber jacket, sunglasses, and a pilot's cap (even though he's not a pilot).
Fit
Well Milo is a very enterprising young man and he's probably going to establish a new black market in order to break the tea, sugar, and coffee blockades affecting Riftwatch. He's a capitalist with a specific set of morals and I think it'd be hilarious.
SAMPLES
Please provide 2 samples. It doesn't matter if they're written or linked and we don't care if you prefer brackets or normal punctuation, but at least one must take place in the game world, and at least one must be a log rather than network tags (or their setting-appropriate equivalent). They can be of any length, as long as they provide a sense of your character's voice and internal narrative. If we feel they aren't sufficient, we'll ask you for more.
