John is the second son of leader of the LB crime family. He grew up only hearing half of the story of how his father came to power. Like most he saw the famous video of the blue eyed butcher taking a knife to the leaders of rival gangs who's names are now forgotten. But he didn't hear how his ears were cut off for opposing the trafficking of orks or how the hard faced street samurai who keeps the neighborhood safer than Lone Star ever could, used to be a fresh faced attorney. All he saw was the Blue Eyed Butcher, the painting on the wall of an uncle that people toast a drink to but never say how he died, an older brother twice his size being put in charge of operations overseas, and younger brothers already bigger than him being groomed to do the same. He grew up surrounded by orks and trolls who looked to his father as a father figure and a leader. Despite being the spitting image of his father, he always just felt like the elf that had to be protected and kept away from the family business. | |||

Instead he fled west and is now trying to prove his capability by becoming a shadowrunner.

He grew up surrounded by orks and trolls who looked to his father as a father figure and a leader. Despite being the spitting image of his father, he always just felt like the elf that had to be protected and kept away from the family business.
The only person who didn't treat him differently was his mother and when she died he decided that he'd earn his place at the family table the same way his father had earned his place at the head of the table.

Appearance
John is a tall conventionally handsome Elf. He is somewhat bulkier than one might expect though it is up for debate as to if this is from his mother's side or just a side effect from growing up roughhousing with orc brothers. Though the reality of it is probably the muscle replacements he got so he could survive that roughhousing. The most striking feature about him is his synthetic eyes which often let off a low blue glow.
Clothing
He grew up with money and is fond of the finer things with a nice armored lining. Recent circumstances have left him having to downgrade his wardrobe a bit but while Mortimer of London might be the most fashion-forward line it's certainly better than slumming it in a scuffed-up armored synth leather duster.
Matrix Persona
Matrix Persona is similarly built in a fine suit and appears to be made of snow. No mouth and light blue glowing eyes. While he never showed any exceptional aptitude for hacking he does spend some time doing things he shouldn't on the grid, though it's more of a hobby and he never goes far enough that he could actually get caught.
