Nolan as a reputation of getting incredibly angry after he loses a chess match but that hasn’t happened in years because he’s undefeated. He’s blunt and straightforward. His face is almost always neutral and he hardly ever smiles around anyone. Chess is his lifeline but it comes with lots of trauma from his Grandfather (he went to his grandfather’s apartment when he was 14 and his grandfather tried to kill him. he ended up getting stabbed by his own grandfather). since then he doesn’t open up.
