Yeah, I'm not done yet. Gotta type his history and whatnot. Any comments critiques other stuff until I finish, totally welcome, broskies.
----------------------------------
Name: Samuel Boon
Alignment/Affiliation: Solo, for now. Doesn't know much about the various factions.
Age: 32
Race: Human
Appearance:
Height: 6'4 feet/inches
Weight: 214 pounds
Actually, a good reference point is Bruce Campbell, except not an exact clone. Samuel is bigger, more chiseled than Campbell ever was, more in line with a wrestler of some kind. Monster hunting is tough work!
But Samuel looks every bit the hero, tanned skin, a chin to be proud of, and longish brown hair that always seems to fall in the right places, naturally. He shaves when he's able, but it's not unusual to see him with a 5 o'clock shadow. Actually growing a beard takes him a while, however. Save for his head and his eyebrows, hair seems to grow lightly.
Clothing/attire: Mainly black leather. A hard, rough'n'tumble life on the road sees him wearing a pieced and stitched together outfit that looks right at home being worn by the Road Warrior. It won't win him any beauty contests, but it makes sure his body is at least somewhat protected, and also lets him move quietly in the darkness, something that heavier armor could not afford him. Also worn are black steel-toe boots, and fingerless gloves, the lack of fingers allow him to squeeze his gun triggers without problem. The knuckles also have metal on them, to add some oomph when punching. Nothing like the big weighted weapons that some Monks wear, however. He also has metal knee and elbow pads for the same reason.
It should also be noted that Samuel has weapons stashed all over his persons. Knives in his boots and gloves, and a row of silver stakes across the front of his top. This outfit makes it easy for him to holster a sidearm at his...side, and was made to holster his pump shotgun across his back, as well as many, many pouches for ammo.
One last detail...he doesn't wear this when conversing with civilized folk, but when he's on the job, he wears what can only be described as a white hockey mask. When not being worn, the eyeholes are normal, but when he straps it on, his eyes become black, with red dots in the middle. However, there is a purpose for this.
Personality: Samuel is cocky, kind of a jerk, and sometimes smelly. But hey, you try trudging through marshland and Marlboro shit, tell me if you come through smelling like roses. Samuel prefers keeping people at an arms distance, and has a clever quip(Or what he thinks is clever) ready for almost any situation. But underneath the keen danger, cheap booze, and cheaper women, Samuel is an optimist and a good person, yet surrounded by pessimism. He tries to deny it, but he can't fight what he is.
A hero.
Abilities: Mainly a gunner, but Sam is capable of brawling with the best of them against regular humans...he's actually queasy about killing non-monsters. He's killed so many warped parodies of humanity that doesn't want to off what's a regular person, even if that person happens to be some asshole thug. He is not as squishy as your average ranged combatant.
Furthermore, due to the...unpredictability of his line of work, he's familiar with a wide range of weapons both ranged and melee, though he certainly isn't an expert with them like certain well-dressed assassins. No, he just knows his way around a sword or axe or spear. By the same token, he gets the general concept of most firearms, though he isn't a crack shot with them. Essentially, he's a jack of all trades, but with a penchant for firearms. He can improve in anything, but not nearly at the level of any dedicated specialist.
Wearing the mask, Sam essentially gets darkvision, and gains resistances to dark, shadowy, unholy sorts of attacks. This doesn't apply to "Black Magics" such as fireballs and wind attacks, but toward attacks with the unholy 'theme'. However, he gains vulnerabilities to light or holy abilities, and is damaged by healing spells, though potions and Phoenix Downs work fine. I want the mask to grant him other abilities as we all get stronger and whatnot, but that's debatable.
Weapons: A lot, and he keeps a lot of stuff in his car, I'll list it all:
'Wilma' except all black.
His Colt 45
Has about 7 knives hidden on his persons, these are thrown or otherwise used as a last ditch effort.
Also, has 7 silver stakes diagonally across his front, in case of vamps. Unlike the knives, he will try to retrieve these unless that's out of the question.
Fire axe(In his car)
Many, many boxes of ammo and shotgun shells(in his car)
3 grenades(In car, has never used these)
1 flamethrower(In car, has never used this, in poor condition, very limited fuel.)
1 shovel(Mainly uses it like a regular shovel, but he has beheaded a beastie with it, so it counts.)
History/Background:
RP Sample
Everything else...
'The Wagon'
It may look more like a garbage truck than a car and be a worse ride than Hugh Hefner, but the frame of it is sturdy and reliable, meaning it won't shatter the first time it crashes into something, and it's roomy. Perfect for storing a bunch of weapons if you're a monster hunter!
