GILBERT BEILSCHMIDT
-PRUSSIA-


"To each his own."

Name: Gilbert Beilschmidt
Origin: Königsberg, Prussia
Gender: Male, of course~
Orientation: That depends on who I'm talking to and who's in earshot.
Religion: Roman Catholic
Birthday: January 18, 1701
Age: 24
Languages Spoken: German, Old Prussian, some Russian

Personality: Prussia can definitely be described as 'full of himself', proudly proclaiming how awesome he is whenever the opportunity strikes him, meaning almost every sentence that leaves his mouth has the word 'awesome' somewhere in it.

Despite these proclamations of being awesome, Prussia does have moments where he feels insecure and needs someone to reassure him, though his pride will not let him admit that he needs this reassurance, and he will try to mask the insecurity with more declarations of being awesome, trying to drive away the feelings on his own.

Even with his seemingly self-centered personality, Prussia is firmly loyal to those he loves, namely his brother, and he still holds a strong devotion to his favorite ruler, Freidrich II, whom he fondly calls 'Old Fritz'. Prussia often is seen with a small yellow chick, though he was unaware of it's presence until Italy mentioned it to him, and was given the name Gilbird.

Prussia also harbors a fear and hate of Russia, who he was forced to live with after WWII, and he's become highly sensitive to changes in temperature because of his time spent there. His mental scarring is bad enough that he'll freeze up in fear or hide if there is a blizzard nearby.

Relationships:

Germany: 'West' as he likes to call him, is his younger brother. He raised him to be a soldier like himself, and now that he's older, reminisces about how cute he used to be, calling Germany his 'baby bruder' during these times, mostly to embarrass him. After the Berlin Wall came down, he went to live with Ludwig for a while to recuperate and somewhat recover from the mental scarring Russia caused.

Italy: Prussia has a soft spot for Feliciano, since he managed to crack Germany's dense shell and get him to lighten up a bit (And I mean a very little bit) so he likes to hang around with Italy, just so he can be around someone who is still innocent and cute, and calls him 'Feli-chan'.

Austria: Prussia LOVES to torment Roderich, since he enjoys making the man flustered, and will do almost anything to get a reaction out of him. He uses various nicknames for Austria, among them would be 'Prissypants', 'Mr. Aristocrat', and 'Piano Fag'.

Hungary: Even though Prussia refuses to admit it, he is terrified of Hungary, and will use any excuse to avoid and/or get away from her and her frying pan. As children, he didn't know Hungary was a girl until puberty, since she was very tomboyish. (And still is) Even then, Hungary was prone to beating him up.

France: One of Prussia's friends, who is part of the 'Bad Touch Trio', these two get along pretty well, mostly fueling each other's more perverted tendencies. During the War of Austrian Succession, France was on Prussia's side.

Spain: The other member of the Bad Touch Trio, though he's not was bad as Prussia and France, he's more airheaded, but he's also the stabilizer for the other two, and keeps them out of big trouble.

Russia: Prussia hates Ivan, but he also fears him because of the psychological and physical torture he went through at his house, and the various scars from that. Prussia does his best to hide his fear, but sometimes it gets the better of him.

America: As part of the “Awesome Trio” these two will often get into childish arguments about who is more awesome, which will usually digress into other petty arguments, such as the fact that Gilbert lives in his brother's basement.

Denmark: Once Prussian territory, Gilbert seems to have been the main cause of how obnoxious the Dane is, adding him to the “Awesome Trio”. He also might be the reason why the Dane overcompensates so much.

History:

Hobbies: Invading vital regions! And blogging. And harassing Roderich. And of course, being awesome. And playing the flute!
Random Quirks: Prussia will invade anyone and everyone's vital regions if he can get away with it. He's about the only person that ever remembers who Canada is. He absolutely LOVES pancakes and maple syrup and will randomly go to Matthew's house to ask him for some. Despite how much he calls Roderich a sissy for playing piano, Gilbert has his own treasured instrument, a flute given to him by Old Fritz. Besides being a great war leader and king, Fritz was also a musician and composer, and as Gilbert describes it, “He took the hands of a warrior and taught them to not only destroy, but to create.” When Gilbert isn't blogging or invading or pestering, he's usually playing his flute, having memorized every song Fritz wrote, playing in his honor.
