'Hairy' Harry Maxwell Melee: RV 10 Coordination: RV 6 Brawn: RV 10 Fortitude: RV 10 Intellect: RV 6 Awareness: RV 6 Willpower: RV 10 Health: 36 Fortune: 22 Lifestyle: RV 10 Repute: RV -2 Origin: While he looks downright strange, Harry Maxwell lacks special powers of any type. Though he possesses a rare disorder, Harry nonetheless forces his way through the illicit life he has chosen for himself with only his skills, his brass knuckles, and of course a singular rage. Known Powers: (none) Limitations / Enhancements: (none) Equipment: Brass Knuckles: while they aren't made of brass, Harry carries these brutal implements wherever he goes. He can inflict +1 RS Bashing damage when punching foes during otherwise unarmed melee combat, which can be surprising considering how weak he looks. Smartphones: Harry carries multiple smartphones on his person, several of which are mere burners for conducting illicit business. They can send and receive radio signals with rank value 4 ability, which allows an ideal transception range of five miles, terrain notwithstanding. Quirks: Hypermobility: not only does Harry look weird, but he moves weird, too. Double-jointed across his body, Harry is distressingly flexible, and he takes full advantage of this at all times. This offers him a +1 RS Coordination bonus on ACTIONs related to his range of motion. Unattractive: combined with his wiry build and his haunted facial features, Harry's alopecia universalis gives him an off-putting appearance. Those who can't get past his unusual looks react to 'Hairy' Harry as if his already-negative Repute trait was -2 RS in value. Skills: Crime: having no respect for law and order, Harry is a perfect addition to any criminal organization. With a distressing amount of experience engaging in criminal behavior, Harry should receive a +1 RS bonus on crime-based ACTIONs, whether fencing goods or stealing them. Martial Arts styles B and C: a goon by trade, and one who enjoys his craft, Harry is a master of several fighting styles. He may add a +1 RS bonus to any ACTION called for when attempting unarmed attacks, escape and grapple maneuvers, or dodging or weaving incoming assault. Contacts: As a sworn member of the Hedgehog House, Harry can generally rely upon his fellows for assistance in the perpetration of criminal actions, since they're mostly made in support of this crime syndicate. Should he but let her, Harry's cousin Maxine would help him out as well. Costume: Harry wears clothes that accent his ostensibly distressing appearance. He usually wear a black tank top, baggy, faded black jeans with various holes scattered across their legs, black leather combat boots, and a studded black leather belt with a hedgehog themed buckle. Personality: Harry has little use for society as a concept or people in particular. His harrowing childhood readily cured him of things such as empathy for his fellow man, or a conscience about the terrible things he tends to do to them. He's just dishing out what he was served, after all. Divorced from the wants and needs of anyone but himself, Harry makes for a great foot soldier. He's happy to do the bidding of others, as long as they make it worth his while, no matter how odious an act he is called upon to make. In his mind, after all, others would happily do the same to him. Real Name: Harold Maxwell Occupation: professional criminal Legal Status: citizen of the United States with a considerable criminal record Marital Status: single Alias(es), if any: Hairy Harry Group Affiliation: the Hedgehog House Height: 6' 5" Hair: inapplicable Eyes: brown Weight: 230 lbs Other Distinguishing Characteristics: Harry has no body hair. At all. He's also very tall and wiry, with unusually long limbs. His arms are covered with a plethora of tattoos, including the Hedgehog House logo. Story: Harry grew up relatively poor in a dense urban center, and while that was relatively normal in and of itself, he manifested a rare disorder as a child. On his tenth birthday, Harry's alopecia universalis revealed itself to the world, and over the next year he lost every single body hair. As they are wont to be, Harry's peers were especially cruel to him about this, and took to calling him Hairy Harry, among other horrible epithets. Being lanky didn't help him either, and as a result Harry was regularly bullied both in and out of school, often in a violent fashion. His feelings about others growing twisted after years of such torment, Harry grew increasingly violent himself, and not only fought back against his bullies but went about ruining their lives. And each time they begged for mercy, Harry simply reminded them of how they treated him. Growing into a strangely intimidating adult, Harry didn't really have any marketable skills. School wasn't a place of learning for him, after all, so he didn't absorb much there except for harsh lessons about cruelty. And this is how Harry ultimately wound up within the Hedgehog House. Happening upon several Hedgehogs in the immediate aftermath of one of their operations, Harry was obstinate in refusing to help the police that asked for his help in tracking them down. Not because he has any respect for the law, so much as he just felt no need to help it out, either. Impressed by this, since he had no particular reason to help them out, these Hedgehogs sort of adopted him. Enjoying dispensing violence for them for decent money, Harry quickly went from hired muscle to trusted associate, and he's taken one for the team on several occasions. Having received more fellowship from the Hedgehogs than he has from anyone else in his entire life, Harry has stuck with them through thick and thin. Even when shaken down by the police, Harry has protected his fellow criminals, though he's gleefully pointed the police towards competition. Even when his cousin Maxine tried to turn him away from his life of crime, Harry refused as he's all in with his ultra-violent gang. Luckily for him, Maxine doesn't have the heart to bust him for his crimes, but at the same time she doesn't have any qualms about arresting his pals.
