Name: Desmond Greer
Age: 42
Any important physical characteristics: Nearly as pure Human as one can be these days-few implants or cybernetics, except for a wrist interface/communication device, which is seriously outdated by even the failing standards of today. Has a hollowed out left tooth he can open with a motion of the tongue-it can store about a thimble of liquid. He can't remember when he got it. A medical technician once told him he's got some sort of solid implant attached to his spinal cord, which couldn't be removed without killing him. Whatever it is, it occasionally makes the skin above it itch uncontrollably. He's been saving money to hire a *real* doctor to remove it...
Describe something special about your character: Desmond is a man looking for a woman. Not for love. When he finds her, he's going to kill her. See, he meant this special woman 5 years ago-a Lady in Red. What happened before or after that, he can't remember. All he knows is that he met a woman in a bar, and when he awoke the next morning, she shot him in the head....he survived, somehow, but after that, he lost everything he ever owned or cared about. Even apparently, his memories. His personal records were wiped from...everywhere. He was never born. The only thing he had left was a face. Her face. And he's been looking for that face ever since.
What your character does for a living: Desmond usually works for people who need someone without a past-leg breaking, stealing, arson, intimidation, debt collection...he needs the money to grease wheels, and moreover, earn the connections he needs to ferret out his past. He's not past the occasional honest labor, if he gets paid well enough.
Where your character is from and a touch of background: Desmond woke up on a scummy hotel in the outer rim. He can't remember where he lived before.
Any notable skills you wouldn't expect from the above information: Desmond is an able diplomat, able to keep his simmering rage to a smolder when he needs to sweet talk a s emmark or pry information from an reluctant source. When he can find time to rest, he likes to tinker with firearms and explosives, and even dabbles in amateur chemsitry. He also, ironically, seems to have a nearly photographic memory of his time *after* the incident with the lady in red. He has rarely forgotten anything that has happened to him since that day.
Any notable relationships you wouldue to inherit hidn't expect from the above information: Though he can't recall anyone from his past life, he had made some new "friends"..
- F. Lauer: Known as "Flayer"-a minor criminal boss working from the outer rim. Often hires Desmond to work for him, and has promised to help him in any way he can, as long as he keeps the good results. He hasn't really come through yet, though.
- Spider Kel: Lauer's right hand man, and due to in herit his trashy little empire. Views Desmond as a threat, but is too much of a coward to do anything about, for now.
- Lefty McDouglas: A guy that works for flayers crew. Sort of friends with Desmond.
- Tangiers: Only a name, but whoever she is, he's also looking for desmond. Seems to be leaving a trail of bodies in her wake, or maybe she's only easy to blame? Desmond has entertained the idea that Tangiers is the lady in Red herself...
- "Alpha": A mysterious man has promised to "tell Desmond everything he needs to know...for about a billion credits. He seems willing to wait, too...Probably a scammer.
OOC: I hope all's good with this?
