[<\/strong> \"Sleepy\" Mood:<\/strong> Sleepy ]<\/strong>
My first pass at the template our GM put out for our Wild Talents character. I’m playing kind of a ghostly ‘killer of killers’ type.<\/p>\n

———————–<\/p>\n

\nReal Name: David Jansen
\nDescription: A thin, tall man in his late 20s early 30s. He has short
\ncut brown hair and somewhat washed out looking blue eyes. He seems to
\nbe in very good, if lean condition. He has several scars on his hands
\nand back.
\nAlias: Shroud
\nCostume: Usually just jump (military) boots, and black fatigue pants
\nwith a dark tshirt and leather jacket. If on the job he also adds thin
\nleather gloves, a microweave kevlar vest and sunglasses.<\/p>\n

\nPassions &amp; Loyalties: He is very dedicated to the job. While he has no
\nillusions about who his employers are he also knows that if he shows
\nup at someone’s door there is a good reason. He is very loyal to
\nthose that employ him until one of two conditions is met; he finishes
\nthe job and is paid, the current employer tries to double cross him in
\nsome fashion. This has earned him a reputation in the underworld. The
\nfact that he occasionally removes those he thinks needs removing on
\nhis own is usually ignored due to his usefulness.<\/p>\n

\nBackground: David grew up in a series of foster homes. After abuse
\nand neglect after abuse and neglect he wound up in one last chance
\ntype placement. It was there that the foster father and his eldest son
\nalmost beat David to death. It was also there that his powers first
\nmanifested. His ‘family’ was killed in furnace explosion, David
\nvanished into the streets. While he is not technically ‘wanted’ for
\nthis event it is on his rap sheet. Since then he has taken the time to
\nexplore his powers, establish a trade and try and make himself
\ncomfortable. He tries to desguise the fact, but he is very protective
\nof children, espescially those from broken homes.<\/p>\n

Stats &amp; Skills: He is unusually, almost preternaturally, quick
\nreflex-wise and highly trained in the use of firearms. Additionally he
\nis a very competent knife fighter and hand to hand combatant, relying
\non speed and accuracy rather than brute strength.<\/p>\n

Powers: David has the ability to turn both intangible and
\ninvisible. These powers are linked, he can’t do one without the other.
\nWhile invisible he can be picked up on infrared but will not trip
\nlaser traps, etc. While intangible he is immune to physical effects of
\nall sorts and makes no sound. While intangible he can follow the
\nphysical contours of things, climb stairs etc. but can also ignore
\nthem (sink through floors for example). He can only move at base
\nmovement while intangible, he cannot run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
