 His misanthropic outlook is, despite all appearances, not the result of an inherent destructive inclination. In a phrase, he's a bit of a slave to his own opinions and it's unlikely his true sentiments are ever going to surface - he's in his own way. He holds pokémon in high regard and humans much, much less so - and the more he observes mankind interacting with pokémon, the more he resents his own species, all the while feeling quite powerless to change the situation. His fondest wish would be for the gym circuit to be dissolved and its efforts to culminate in something of a (violent) revolution, instead, a radical rewriting of Sehto culture from the ground up to eliminate the abuse inherent to it. His misanthropic outlook is, despite all appearances, not the result of an inherent destructive inclination.

-He rationalises his own position in the circuit as a necessary evil - a way to, hopefully, if all works out, wake up the respective idiot putting their pokémon through the circuit. The fact he //does// serve as an effective deterrent for about 75% of circuiters certainly doesn't do anything to dampen the cruelty of his methods.+He rationalises his own position in the circuit as a necessary evil - a way to, hopefully, if all works out, wake up the respective idiots putting their pokémon through the circuit.

-He deeply dislikes the current gym circuit setup for its perceived passivity... and for some of the people who are a part of it, [[character:Keith Sirius]] first and foremost, [[character:Jagdish Tsukinaka]] second. That he's a part of him intimidates him - he's not sure how he got there, even if he can retrace all the steps in his head and they all check out as sane. He does know being a gym leader gives him about as much power to change the status quo as he could hope for as an individual human being, but given Nahla City's population flux, he finds himself more frustrated at the chore than not (rather than seeing it as the opportunity to reach a wide audience as he could be doing), as he rarely sees the 'fruits of his labour'.+He deeply dislikes the current gym circuit setup for its perceived passivity... and for some of the people who are a part of it, [[character:Keith Sirius]] first and foremost, [[character:Jagdish Tsukinaka]] second.

 <hidden Sexuality>Terry is pretty 'normal' all around - he's heterosexual and not in the least into anything in the BDSM corner of sexuality, be that sadism, masochism, bondage or even just playful dominance and submission. He's classically romantic. Candlelight dinner, a lot of caution, infinite mutual respect - and generally a big deal, in an utterly monogamous way. He'd never cheat his significant other - if he had one.</hidden> <hidden Sexuality>Terry is pretty 'normal' all around - he's heterosexual and not in the least into anything in the BDSM corner of sexuality, be that sadism, masochism, bondage or even just playful dominance and submission.

 After Taqnateh and his survival, he spent a few years trying to figure out what to do about his newfound empathy for pokémon, ultimately deciding that everything he tried fell short, since it wasn't changing anything fundamental. After Taqnateh and his survival, he spent a few years trying to figure out what to do about his newfound empathy for pokémon, ultimately deciding that everything he tried fell short, since it wasn't changing anything fundamental.
  
-Not violently inclined by his lonesome, Terry at first resigned to this notion and began to travel the circuit again, this time to offer his service to the gym leaders, beginning with [[character:Yarver Bakema]] and travelling clockwise around Sehto, avoiding Taqnateh in the process. He didn't get far, since he told Yarver he was going to travel to Ehqaj to speak to Rose, resulting in her being 'forewarned' - and deciding to report the strange behaviour to Jagdish, wondering if it was perhaps something he'd asked of Terry. Jagdish, not having been informed about Terry's plan, spoke to him on his way to [[place:Pyu Ivvi]]. Terry... tried to ignore Jagdish, hopoing desperately that either he was just a hallucination or he was going to go away if he was granted no reaction. It didn't work. Instead, he snapped at him, ranting about how the whole circuit setup wasn't getting its supposed job done, how people were going to continue hurting pokémon, and to please leave him alone while he was trying to get some atonement in (also, to please stop being quite as creepy). Jagdish, fed up with Terry's uncooperative attitude, whisked him up to Taqnateh, locked him into a cell, and went to speak with Yarver and Rose about what, exactly, they had to report, in as much detail as they could muster.+Not violently inclined by his lonesome, Terry at first resigned to this notion and began to travel the circuit again, this time to offer his service to the gym leaders, beginning with [[character:Yarver Bakema]] and travelling clockwise around Sehto, avoiding Taqnateh in the process.

 Needless to say, Terry did not deal well with even just the notion of being trapped up in Taqnateh again and very nearly literally clawed at the walls. Meanwhile, Yarver and Rose had only good things to say about Terry (Terry had expressly asked for tasks that would help improve pokémon life in the area - he'd patched up the shore fencing around Rose's gym that provided a safe haven for tame water pokémon, for example), and despite their personal dealings, Jagdish felt inclined to consider Terry as a gym leader, since he seemed to have his heart in the right place. As such, he returned to Taqnateh to talk to Terry about it, assessing him a misanthropist and thus only suitable for Nahla City, trying to convince Terry that if he wanted to do some good for pokémon, that was bound to put him in the best possible position to do so. He did, however, line out the conditions of gym leadership, including, most notably, not mentioning the circuit's inevitable end. With some convincing, Terry accepted, perhaps in very slight part coloured by the urge to get away from Taqnateh and Jagdish on short notice, but largely considering it the best of his possible options. Needless to say, Terry did not deal well with even just the notion of being trapped up in Taqnateh again and very nearly literally clawed at the walls.
