joshua 'cross' crowley's personality

ESTABLISHED TRAITS+BACKGROUND
-grew up poor and abused
-the onky blood relative he cares for is his younger brother, whom he handcrafts figurines and stuffed dolls for
-when he left his parents,he was taken in by a player killer by the name of red, who taught him how to duel, and passed down his x-saber cards.
-after red disappeared under mysterious circumstances joshua became a player killer himself for fun and a living, working for many individuals, including mary's parents.
-as a player killer,  he was expected to win no matter the dircumstance, so rather than blindly rush in he would carry around near useless cards that would help win against his targets, these days its a habbit he still carries but he hides it behind lies and excuses. every victory ment a bigger paycheck afterall
-Due to a combination of bad memories of his parents, and Red's teaching , Joshua has a very staunch 'boys don't cry' attitude, while maintaining a neutral at worst disposition toward women and girls, the exception being dizzy due to the fact she legitimately scares and confuses him.
-while he won't hold back against girls, he will, unless goaded into his days as a player killer forfeit before giving the final blow.
-after making a hopeful up and coming duelist quite duel monsters for good, he hung up his mantle as a player killer.

EVENTUAL TRAITS
-he will grow out of his multi directional sexism
-if gottoms 'dies' he will definitely fall back into his player killer persona
-he will come to terms with his days as a player killer. and continue to use his tactics unapologetically and without excuses.
-should he ever defeat zatch he will grow to respect him as a duelist,even if not as a person.
