Full Name: Alan Gemcity. (Referencing NCIS and Alan Wake in the same post deserves me a medal.)
Age: Middle-aged, around 42 usually.
Appearance:
He is about 165 pounds with an average build at approx. 5'11" height.
Nationality: 'Murrican.
Personality: While people say age brings wisdom and maturity, that doesn't make it mutually exclusive with Alan's rather brash attitude. He's smart and logical, but a lot of his actions are more arrogant and brash, and he tends to be rather blunt in conversation. Not that he acts entirely like this, though. He still is mature. That just doesn't stop him from being an arrogant prick a lot of the time. He's also surprisingly suave and a bit of a womanizer when he wants to be. So, he does tend to act a bit younger than his age, but some say that's just his charm.
Skills: He's good at lecturing people and yelling at people, but so is anyone as old and arrogant as Alan. More seriously, he's a good writer, and actually very persuasive. Also, he has a lot of experience in the world, so he knows a bit of everything when it comes to carpentry or first aid. Obviously, he isn't about to build a log cabin or perform open heart surgery, but he can build a bookshelf or staunch a wound, among other things. He can also sew, which he defends as being a very masculine skill. He's not good at much involving combat, however, as he has a bad back.
General Bio: Born rich and arrogant, he stayed that way through much of school. He's had a rather successful social life, and he became a prolific writer when he was about 21 and wrote his first book. He wrote a sequel years later, and it became a bestseller. Since then, he's been racking his brains for inspiration, but hasn't found any. Also, he did have a wife, but they were together for a tumultuous 7 years before divorcing at 28 for him. He's had a bit of luck with the ladies since then, but has been unable to settle down.
Notes: Has a bad back, so don't expect him to do much heavy liftin'.
