[b]* First and Last Name:[/b] James Jackson (Referred to as Detective Jackson) [b]* Age/Gender:[/b] 29 / Male [b]* Appearance: (Pictures are fine for this section.)[/b] [img]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wH8xzTlIBU0/TjfOlBK2ChI/AAAAAAAAAKM/IRN-QzzSQBw/s1600/2011-08-02_071629.jpg[/img] Jackson wears sunglasses both inside and outside along with a black trench coat and a white dress shirt. No tie, so he can't be grabbed by it. He wears black gloves and tanned slacks along with black shiny dress shoes. Open carry revolver on his hip that is ingraved with japanese letterring that says, "殺そうとしている". He rarely smiles and looks serious about 99% of the time. He only relaxes himself around people he's familiar with. [b]* Backstory: (This is optional, you can make your character's backstory up as you go.)[/b] Jackson is an ex-traffic cop turned Detective recently, due to him testifying in a case where he witnessed his own wife get run over and killed. He has only one son that he rarely sees anymore due to his newfound job/passion and the fact that his son is training in some sort of secret FBI program. He believes that somehow, somewhere, his wife is with him at all times. This keeps him going through every case that he's assigned to. Jackson believes that his life outside of his job is insanely boring, so he ever so rarely leaves his office outside of the field. [b]* Personality: (Use as much detail as you like!)[/b] Detective Jackson is a very smart and quiet person. He takes his time to take apart every situtation in his head just so he can put all of the pieces down where they need to be. His stunning intellect is his number one weapon in the fight, next to his revolver that he has open carry on his hip at all times. Even though Jackson likes to be quiet, he can be a scary cop when he needs to be. He's not afraid to shout and threaten others if he believes that is the only way. [b]* Strengths: (Name 1-3 strengths and rank them as Good, Better and Best. Please explain them if you can!)[/b] 1 - Better - Very intelligent: Jackson has a knack for using logic and thinking the hardest even in the most impossible situations. Give him some time, and he can find a solution. 2 - Good - He's trained very well in firearm practice. He can shoot pretty good with his revolver, and thanks to his good luck through his japanese ingravings, he's given a small bonus in accuracy. [b]* Weaknesses: (Name 1-3 weaknesses and rank them as Bad, Awful and Worst. Just like with your strengths, please explain them in detail. Make sure that your Strengths = your Weaknesses! Eg. You can have 1 Good/Bad and 1 Best/Worst, since they balance each other out.)[/b] 1 - Awful - Slow: As well as he can use his brain, he isn't good on a time limit. He absolutely NEEDS time to think if he's gonna solve a mystery of some sort. He's not fit for a dangerous situation where he needs to think fast, but given enough time, he's better than the most. 2 - Bad - Bad at Unarmed/Melee combat: He can use a gun pretty good, but he's a little weak when it comes to the punches. Not that he can't dodge or block a few, he just can't throw a punch or swing a bat to save his life. This is why he always has his gun on him at all times. Without it, he just doesn't feel safe enough. [b]* Preferred Method of Interrogation: (Are you a harsh officer who demands the truth from every witness or are you willing to sympathize with the supposedly innocent?)[/b] The latter, kinda. Jackson is a smart and well behaved person, so if he wants something out of someone, he's gonna do it by proving that they have something to hide. He won't scream or shout if neccessary, but he will stop at nothing to prove that you're lying if he believes that you are. [b]* Preferred Mode of Transportation: (Do you prefer taking a police car, driving in the back or just taking the bus or train?)[/b] Train, walking, and biking are Jackson's only modes of transportation that he'll accept when he just wants to go somewhere. If he needs to chase down a criminal, and if there isn't any other option, he has a drivers license just in case. He doesn't normally like cars anymore due to what happened with his wife, but he will stop at nothing to prevent any further deaths from a crazy driver. [b]* How long have you worked as an Officer?[/b] Jackson was a traffic cop for 5 years, and has been a detective for a year now.
