[b]Name:[/b] Gregory (Greg) Syman [b]Age:[/b] 26 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Race:[/b] Human [b]Appearance:[/b] [url=https://p.gr-assets.com/540x540/fit/hostedimages/1380391689/754206.jpg]Something like this[/url] [b]Personality:[/b] He tends to brood and keep to himself a lot, clearly having some sort of a troublesome past that he doesn't like to talk about. He likes profit and fame, having highs and lows depending on how he's viewed by others, being too sensitive for his own good in matters such as that. He doesn't relate well with others but is improving on himself now, having picked himself up out of the gutter when he was an alcoholic and failing in his career. When he gets right down to it he does the right thing and is willing to put in the effort to pick himself back it. [b][u]Abilities[/u][/b] [b]Physical Abilities-[/b] That of an average man without any serious training in any individual category. [b]Gunslinger-[/b] He's fast and accurate with a revolver. [b]Detective Skills-[/b] Anything needed for a detective such as observation, memorization, high iq, and quick thinking/analyzing. [b][u]Powers[/u][/b] At his bidding his eyes glow blue and he's transported into the higher dimension of space that's able to both see and interact with spirits while still being able to see and interact with the dimension he's normally in. Those back in his normal dimension cannot see his eyes glow, but often say he has a very serious gleam in his eye. Because only he can see and interact with the spirits, if he does so in public he'll look like a crazy person unless he finds a way to be subtle about it. Also, most spirits tend to be able to overpower him physically so he has to be very careful where and how long he uses his power. [b][u]Equipment[/u][/b] [b]Weapons:[/b] A silver colored six shooting revolver. Enough ammo for one full reload. It can only wound weak spirits or mildly distract more powerful ones. [b]Items:[/b] A lighter is actually his most powerful weapon. It's inscribed with a symbol that infuses it with holy fire that can wound even powerful spirits, shooting sparks up to two feet. In the normal dimension it acts as a normal lighter for his pack of cigarettes. [b][u]Bio[/u][/b] He was always said to be a prodigy in the field of detective work. At first he said it was his spirit friends helping him out, but nobody believed him, mocking him even, and he didn't have many friends as a result. He was the un-cool and geeky kid to hang out with who was too smart for his own good. He learned his lesson by middle school to stop claiming he could talk to spirits. He started over, this time claiming to be the world's best detective. He helped out in many cases, looking only for the profit and fame as he solved otherwise near unsolvable cases. Nobody knew that he really could talk with spirits and was using them to solve almost every case he ever solved. He didn't have a care in the world for a while, using his powers without taking any precaution besides not appearing to be crazy to others. This all changed when a spirit viciously ravaged him one day, the spirit of a man who committed suicide after Gregory's testimony lead him to being arrested. He barely survived, taken pity on by the spirit of a girl who refused to give him her name, but often followed him around out of curiosity. He was shoved back to the normal dimension just before the spirit could end his life. Nobody knew how he got such injuries while investigating the crime scene, and he didn't have any good excuse so claimed the concussion game him amnesia. People assumed it was the suspect from the current case who had somehow snuck past security. This case was never solved. In all honesty Gregory was scared out of his mind to go back to the spirit dimension. His fame dwindled more and more as he could no longer solve his cases with such ease. It got so bad that he was called a washed up detective. He suffered a mental breakdown and quit being a detective for a long time, drinking away his sorrows in unemployment. Luckily he had made a lot of money up until this point so he was able to keep a roof over his head, albeit with a downgrade to a shoddy apartment. However, one day a case caught his attention on the news. The murder case of the girl who had saved his life. For the first time his mind was racing on his own, not relying in spirits for input. He could actually solve that case. He could feel it. Something in his mind light up and he resumed his job as a detective, working tirelessly on the case until at last he solved it! This was a major ego boost and turning point in his career. With his restored bravado he went back to being a detective in full, a better detective then he ever was. He worked up the courage one day and went back to the spirit dimension, much to the delight of he girl he had solved the case for. She showed him to an elderly spirit which could imbue objects with her power, allowing his ordinary lighter to fend off the bad spirits while in this dimension. Using a combination of his own wit and the aid spirits, he solved many more cases not just for wealth, but because he now knew it was the right course of action.
