Person

A youthful character who fixates on the intellect over the emotional. Often academically oriented or self-directed, they live by their rationality and aren't shy about sharing their ideas with others.

Personality

Hyper-rational and concerned with arguments, reason, and values, Knight of Swords people are hard-edged, articulate, and convincing. They can get carried away with their ideas, however, and lose touch with the real world, especially the feelings and intentions of those around them. Great debaters and advocates, these people are the first on the scene when injustice occurs and believes in the importance or order, laws, and authority. Unless it goes against their interests, of course!
