Bio: Ryan is one of America's 'Great minds'. He grew up in a stable, loving home as an o ky child to parents Doug and Mary.
Mary was a house wife and Doug was a professional racer. He used to bring his son along to the races- where he would be left with the pit team whilst Doug raced- and found a love for mechanics.
Ryan graduated high school and gained a scholarship to MIT where he majored in Advanced Mechanical science and Aeronautic Engineering.
It was at MIT that he stumbled upon the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, a French Canadian girl by the name of Francesca Deloure, a neuroscientist studying for her PhD. The two had a spark between that was overwhelming and soon became a couple.
The couple married four years later and bought a home together, Ryans got a career straight out of college, a career that paid well, very well, and his genius and undisputed knowledge in the field of advanced weaponary saw him climb straight to the top, Head of division, in only 2 1/2 years.
His ruthless leadership and high expectations led to many replacements within his team as they simply could not meet his needs, he would say they were lazy or simply not clever enough. However expected people to be on the same level of intelligence as himself, which was unfair given his IQ.
He is a very loving and caring man outside of work, but once he steos into his lab he is all about business. Caring only for results and success, he can get irritable with people less intelligent than himself, and hates laziness.
Strengths:
Brainiac - Ryan has an extraordinary brain capable of working out tough equations and solving problems, he can think on his feet and Improvise, can create useful items out of seemingly nothing and can repair pretty much anything.
Headstrong: can keep calm and composed in even the worst of situations, can bolster morale and ease the nerves of those around him. Steps up to the plate when necessary.
Soldier boy- has basic knowledge of hand to hand combat and small arms fire due to military background.
Weaknesses:
Family man - Ryan is a very caring man and is hurt deeply at the probably loss of his beloved family. This makes him somewhat reckless with a 'nothing to live for' mentality. Should he learn that his family is alive he would stop at nothing to get to them, taking risks his intelligence wouldn't usually allow and possibly putting anyone with him in danger.
No Nonsense- Ryan believes everyone should have a focus in life ans that they should work hard to achieve it. Anyone he sees just lying around doing nothing but moaning would really aet him off and could cause confrontation withing a group.
Misc: Ryan, along with his partner Nicholas Strauss, designed and built the new Bishop and Strauss 9mm pistol. He trusts it over any other pistol and carries one with him.
Ryan is a walker, drifting along the wastes with new found best friend Luke Porter.
