This page describes the disguise Zander wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Ferociously proud and somewhat vain, Johnny Zander likes to be impressive and to be considered special and unique. He is not timid, meek, or self-effacing, and is rarely content with staying in the background or in a subordinate position. He is a natural leader, and does not take orders from others very well. Zander must have something of his own, something creative - be it a business, a project, a home or whatever - that he can develop and manage according to his own will and vision. Whatever Johnny does, he does it in a unique, dramatic, individual way. He likes to put his own personal stamp on it.

Johnny Zander also has a very strong sense of dignity, self-respect, and personal honor and is deeply offended if someone treats him in a humiliating or dishonorable way.

Zander admires others who are strong individuals like himself. When Johnny Zander befriends someone, Zander is tremendously loyal, sincere, and willing to go to extraordinary lengths to make that person happy. He is very giving and generous, but his gifts are never anonymous - Johnny expects recognition and appreciation for them. He also expects the intense loyalty that he offers to his dear ones to be reciprocated.
