Name: John Alistair
Nickname(optional): 
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Powers/skills: Military/merc training and experience, proficiency with guns ranging from handguns to military rifles to even mounted weapons, excellent in hand-to-hand combat, psionics and buff magic. Buff magic is when you channel magical energy directly into your body, allowing you to move at impossibly fast speeds, become incredibly strong, and even increase the durability of your bones, skin, and organs.
Species: Human. Mage, but still human.
Crush: Already asking questions like those? Jeez! Slow down! He JUST got here.
Relationship: TBR, should I bring any of my other original characters in. Other than that, he is new to this world, knows nobody.
Appearance(s): Dark brown hair and light blue eyes on a chiseled face. Muscular, standing at 5'10. Scar on his chest from taking shrapnel. He normally wears a pretty stoic expression. 
Personality: In the end, John is a good guy, but his time working as a soldier and some time as a merc for a corrupt bastard has made him jaded, so he comes off as cold in most situations. Occasionally, he has a flashback. John is all about helping people out though, despite how he comes off to people.
Bio/history(optional): I would like to leave most things a mystery and allow this to unravel as people interact with him, but the basic idea is he went into the US Army upon finishing high school, signed up to be a merc with a corporation I will not mention until the time comes, and wound up working for an extremely immoral client. In this role, John was forced to do horrible things.
Some accident put him in a hospital in this city, where he knows nobody. He will be trying to dodge his old client and even the company he worked for.
Likes: Honesty, loyalty (to the right cause, of course), snowy weather (don't worry hes not an emo lol), blondes (women), southern cooking, fighting for a good cause.
Dislikes: Corruption, especially the corporate variety. Deceit, brain washing, exploitation,  loud mouths, complainers, lazy people. Oh, and raisins in his cookies, brownies, what have you.
