Origin-Character

The infrastructure of Hamburger City is coming along. A few characters have been introduced. My contribution is Thalmond Rowe. Full character origin is below.

Thalmond Rowe

 

Born the only son of Talhrian immigrants, pale and feeble as a newborn, he was given up for adoption at 13 days old. Left at the Time Center wrapped in a tattered blanket placed in a pink cowboy hat. His childhood was riddled with taunting and name calling because of his origin as an orphan and a Talhrain. Now, dear reader, please realize Talharians present as human for the most part, save for the piercing neon green eyes and skin the color of the Void. Thalmond outgrew his pale skin, shedding it like a snake does to reveal a complete void of darkness with little no light reflecting off his skin. Talharians also possess a keen sense of smell rivaled only by African Elephants and perhaps the best eyesight in the known universe. So it comes as no surprise that Thalmond is aces with a rifle. He has taken to thinking of himself as somewhat of a gunslinger for hire, if you will. Most would call him a wetworker or assassin. When not on the job he still wears that pink cowboy hat. 

 

He never had much of a taste for education so once he aged out of the system studying was a thing of the past. He hustled any way he could for many years. Billiards, cards, you name it he tried. His antics got him caught up in a slightly sticky situation, where he allegedly played the part of the fool in a card game gone wrong. His debt couldn’t be paid in any traditional manner, but it did make him the man he is today. He became the assistant/apprentice to Ol’ Larry Grouper. Grouper was considered to be the best there was when it came to killing. He often quoted the Great James Howllet, “ I’m the best there is at what I do, but what I do Isn’t very nice”. Now, Thalmond didn’t take to this type of gunman-for-hire type of mentality, well, he took to it in his own way and only killed for the greater good of society. On the “good guys side”, you might ask yourself how did he know he was on the “good guys side”? ANd the answer to that my friend is simple, if one day you find yourself asking that question, then you sir, are not on the “good guys side”.

 

He doesn’t and hasn’t ever taken payment for his “duties” and as he says “I always seem to be taken care of”. He really believes that is righting wrongs that have befell Hamburger City, and the people agree with him. He works alone, against governmental bodies such as the AI and Thought Police as well as private citizens that cause harm to the good people of Hamburger City.
