'''Nature:'''
*''Demeanor:'' Melancholic. Cornelius embraced the light of the Emperor with all his heart, he has been blessed by being chosen to be an Astropath, and he now lives next door to the Journey's library, where his parents raised him to be the ship's librarian. However, almost everyone he knew as a child has been purged. While it was necessary, of course, their ghosts sometimes weigh on him.
Why are you aboard a Rogue Trader?: Cornelius is desirous of freedom above perhaps all things, even more than power and wealth. Signing on with a Rogue Trader gave him freedom at the price of security - having been kept essentially captive before, it was a risk he was willing to take.
*''What Will You Sacrifice?'' Cornelius has lost much already, and knows what it is to sacrifice. He won't sacrifice his sanity, as a mad psyker is a threat to the purity of the Empire's faithful. He's not afraid to sacrifice his life, though, or his good name, or his wealth in service to the Emperor. 
*''What is your ambition?'' To gain great wealth, serve the Emperor, win glory and acclaim, and...retire somewhere peaceful. Perhaps a very clean, very well-lit space station. Somewhere comfortable. With a team of concubines, life-extension drugs, and an investment portfolio that would make a planetary governor blush.
*''What are your hatreds?'' Witches. Heretics. He doesn't hate the Xeno especially (not any more than is needed to show proper enthusiasm), but he does despise Genestealer cults, which resemble heresy as much as xenophilia. Heresy is what brought vileness (and later destruction) to his home, and he'll stamp out the seeds of chaos with fire whenever he may.
