@Storm/Lance: Hold up gents, it isn’t that easy. Cerberus is tough, insanely tough. But the body and soul are two different things. A body may be weak, but a person’s soul can be incredibly strong. Cerberus’ ability to rend soul from flesh is based upon a person’s character.

Let’s use BTR’s character Jorge as an example. Jorge is a tough son of a bitch, or even Rix (From Flamebiplane’s work). Those are characters strong in their wills. Cerberus wouldn’t be able to snatch their souls easily. Normal people, common people would be easy, but badass people like Jorge, Ross, Forjob, Jester, Aro, Lance, Jeiel.... Cerberus would have to bring his A-game to steal such souls.

How he appreciates strength? It’s simple. Do you die easy? That’s the defining factor. Cerberus is like a tough dad. He wants you to try, push and survive despite your ability to handle a situation above your power level. Cerberus will respect a person who fights till the end, more than he would a powerful person who runs the moment the fight turns against them.

He sees strength subjectively. Those who show courage, willpower and strength, are stronger than those who run. People who stand against Cerberus, even when Hope is lost, just might receive his respect and live to tell how he backed off.

Is it plausible to get along with him? Absolutely! As long as you see him as a scolding father, one who wants the best you can bring.
