Character Information

Summary

"Don't drink kids, it's bad for you," he said, tossing back a shot of Orkstaff's. There is something in John that clearly hates himself, based purely on how he drinks, let alone the fact that "too fast" is his general approach to life, the universe, and everything; and doubly so when it involves something with an engine and wheels. While not a pacifist by any means, Galt believes in the power of his mind and skills over the powers of a bullet in his case. He certainly understands that the right bullet from the right person and into the right person can make a difference - that's just not him.

Hw is, however, not stupid. While he owns a gun, his general preference would be for it to never leave the concealed holster under his custom tailored Ace of Wands coat.

Goals

Short term: Earn enough scratch for a better place - maybe not somewhere fancy like Bellevue, but at least out of the cramped one room flat over his friend Greta's garage. Save up for a GMC Phoenix, the King of All Cars.

Long term: Long term planning is for people who are kinder to his liver than he is.

Background

John was born in the Barrens and raised in the Barrens; his first crimes were in the Barrens between stealing bikes from Go-Gangers and racing them to eventually aiming for larger and larger automotive prey. During one such crime, most notably that went poorly, his magic manifested into his first mind control spell.

Thankfully, perhaps, the person whose car he was trying to steal was a Hermetic Mage named Edward Faraday who took the newly magically aware kid under his wing and began to teach him how to control his magic.

He is only recently "out" in the Shadows, having no street cred of note, but determined to put a good face on it - dressing in clothes that are too expensive for him with a car that cost most of the Nuyen he'd saved for years; and hiding the small, cramped apartment over his friend Greta's autoshop where he endlessly tinkers with his car.

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

Driving:

Speed Demon, Steely Eyed Wheelman, Stunt Driver: Since as long as he could drive, John has driven too fast, too often, and too hard, earning himself a number of burnt out engines, a few injuries, and a number of speeding citations on a SIN which he's long since discarded.

Magican:

Tough as Nails (Stun) 3: John's mentor in the Hermetic orders was incredibly tough and strict in the matter of practical applications of magic. As a result, John's ability to withstand Drain is significantly above average.
