Character information…

Full name: David Jefferson Cryer
Nickname(s): Old Soak, Frowner, Mr. Happy, The Guy That Brings Everyone's Mood Down.
Species: Human, and damn proud of it.
Sex: Male
Age: 25
Occupation: Hunter and professional drinker.

Place of origin: Somewhere to the north of Inverse City.
Place of residence: Inverse City.
Main Hangouts: Bars, Pubs, and anywhere else he can sit down and have a drink.

Physical description: David is of average height for a human, has black hair which he combs back, and has slightly pale skin, what with spending most of his waking time hunting un-named creatures at night and avoiding the sun whenever he can. He wears a trenchcoat at all times, and has on an old, rumpled suit underneath it.

Personality: David is a cynical, sarcastic, aloof person, but underneath all of it is a passion that even he does not understand. He avoids conflict whenever he can, and will only fight in self-defense, but he will go searching for someone to attack him, and does so almost religiously. When David does become angry, he tends to adopt another personality altogether. He will go looking for a fight, and, believe it or not, completely abandon alcohol.

Past history: David remembers little of his past, and doesn't care very much about the parts he does recall. Despite this, he was born in a large village to the north of Inverse, and was orphaned when his parents were killed by something he still can't identify. After wandering for many years, David decided to visit Inverse. He hasn't left yet. Many years ago, David was trained by a hunter he could not remember until recently. The hunter was Kodaku Dankil, and he was not happy to learn that not only has she trained him, but she fell in love with him. This does not please David in the least.

Often-used Phrase(s): "Shut up and get me a beer." "So we have to kill the supernatural thing bent on destroying humanity? Fine." "I think I just ran out of ammo. Anyone got a giant, monster killing stick?"

General skills: David is a decent shot with the pistol he carries at all times, but can use throwing or fighting knives if it comes down to it. He can use a sword and hit the opponent most of the time, and often fights barehanded. He can also pick simple locks, duck when someone tries to take his head off (some of the time), and understand, if not use, magic.
Special abilities: David can drink quite a bit without becoming intoxicated. This is after many years of excess drinking.

Likes: Alcohol, sunlight, sleep, food, guns, bar stools, gossip, rumours, meeting someone willing to buy him a drink, and killing supernatural creatures who need to die anyway.
Hates: The undead, including but not limited to; vampires, werewolves, zombies, mummies, ghouls, ghosts, and demons. Hangovers, waking with strange women in his bed, waking with women he knows in his bed, not waking up at all, dying, being hurt, excess physical activity of any sort, bad food or alcohol, being broke, and just about anything else that keeps him from killing supernatural creatures that need to due anyway or a good drink.
Fears: Spiders, black birds, people with weird eyes, the word 'cantaloupe', and full moons. Oh, also anything that can cause him any kind of pain.
Defects: David drinks a bit too much, as well as having various aches and pains from hunting and fighting creatures of the night. His left pinky is missing the last joint, as it was lost to a werewolf many years ago.

Natural weapons: Only his mind, and that's not too reliable in itself.
Other weapons: A pistol he inherited from his mysterious trainer; six throwing knives; four fighting knives; two short swords; one vial of holy water, half empty; one cross around his neck; and several holy and magical symbols of protection that only work half the time, if he's lucky.
Items usually held: A glass of alcohol, his gun, a blade of any kind listed above.
Special possessions: An old, worn picture of the woman that trained him (Kodaku Dankil); an ever changing amount of money; a book in a language he cannot understand; his suit; his coat; a hat he never wears for fear of loosing it in a fight.

Pet(s): None, as David doesn't like animals very much.
Friends: David used to have friends, but somewhere along the line, they all got killed trying to kill something or other that was bigger, stronger, and down-right meaner than they were. He doesn't spend much time mourning them. He is, however, training Marina Richmond. He isn't too sure how he got the job, and doesn't like it very much.
Enemies: Anything willing to use human life as a food source or a game.

One-line summary: hunter / drinker

Misc: Buy him a drink and show him something that needs to die, and he'll love you forever.
