    Personal History: Alicia has always wanted to be a police officer, at a young age she became interested in all the romantic parts of it. Chasing down bad guys, big shoot outs at banks, having the chief threaten to take your badge. All of this held her heart well into her adult life.

    Sex: Male
    Height: 5'11"
    Weight: 153
    Personal history: [EXPUNGED] (for another half-hour)
    Defining characteristics: Easy going, slightly dulled emotional responses, and very analytical way of doing things and chief characteristics of Snow's personality. That being said, he seems to have a good sense of homour, and physically has nothing worth noting, aside from a G Cleft tattoo on his upper left pectoral, and a small scar under his right eye.

    Name: Bernard 'Bert' Kelly
    Age: 39
    Sex: Male
    Height: 5'6''
    Weight: 217.0lbs

    Personal History: An overweight, middle-aged rent-a-cop with a knack for simple electronics. He's done his share of unlicensed electrician work, though hasn't been convicted yet. Currently going through a sour divorce that's left him pretty broken, so he's looking for a more permanent position to keep his dwindling finances afloat. His bad leg prohibits him from moving too fast, so he refrains from applying to positions that disallow the use of tasers. He's pretty handy with those things, too. Electronic gadgets, like I said.

    Defining Characteristics: Stout, balding, slight Napoleon complex, acrid, bad right leg, handy with a taser, electrophiliac.
    Prior Convictions: None.

    Not sure if I'm keeping with the theme here, but I'll give it a shot.

    Name: Jack Ferman

    Age: 23

    Sex: Male

    Height: 5'7"

    Weight: 160 lbs

    Personal history: Told he had to "do something" with his life by lifelong mentor (and also father) John Ferman Sr., Jack begrudgingly applied to the first position he saw: this one. Studied creative writing in college before dropping out to "see the world", a time during which he stayed with his longterm girlfriend before a nasty breakup.

    Defining characteristics: Despite a long string of personal failures, Jack is surprisingly dependable and loyal to those he likes. Somewhat short-tempered with most others. An occasional smoker. His one identifiable talent is his ability to handle diplomatic situations.

    Prior convictions, if any: 1 count of public intoxication

    Name: Barney "Glitch" L'Huillier

    Age: 22

    Sex: Male

    Height: 5'11"

    Weight: 160lbs

    Personal History: Born and raised in Seattle, Washington, Barney's father was a computer engineer who revelled in teaching his son technology tricks. During middle school he was given the name "Glitch" by fellow students after infecting the school mainframe with a virus, corrupting the permanent records. When his father died, Glitch joined the army, scraped his way through basic training and began active duty as a technical specialist.
    Halfway through his first tour, he was court marshalled for illegally requisitioning army property to create numerous and varied gadgets and inventions, including several enhancements and redesigns of standard issue equipment, which the army reverse engineered and manufactured for issue to future soldiers. Disgusted by the bureaucracy, Glitch chose to take a dishonourable discharge and apply his technological saavy to the private sector.

    Defining Characteristics: Glitch has a wise ass, a smart mouth and a dumb grin. He is arrogant and self-assured, and regularly informs others of his proficiency with technology and the efficiency and genius of his inventions. He is a walking pop-culture reference, preferring old school television science fiction and comic books. He regularly listens to, and sings Stadium Rock music, especially Journey, Boston and Def Leppard.

    Prior Convictions: several counts of shoplifting, vandalism and public nuisance. Implicated in several cyber crimes but never convicted.

    * Name: Felix Trio
    * Age: 31
    * Sex: Male
    * Height: 5'9
    * Weight: 148
    * Personal history;

    Felix trio was a brilliant man, an idiosyncratic man, and at the very core of his soul a coward. Although not lacking in brilliance, his lack of ambition and fear of recognition prevented him from achieving any great academic fellowships.

    Apathetic and cynical to a fault, Mr. Trio directly poses no threat to the general populous. Indirectly however, Mr. Trio has been key witness to, or indirectly involved in the deaths of over 14 individuals.

    Beginning in 1997 in [Redacted]. Mr trio was involved with a Ms [Redacted]. They began a courtship that lasted almost 4 months. On January [Redacted], Ms [Redacted]'s body washed ashore the Shenandoah river, alongside Harper's Ferry. Autopsy reports confirmed that she had committed suicide by jumping from a bridge 15 miles up river. The reason this case is of note is that Ms [Redacted] had been seen 3 hours before the coroner's report placed her death in [Redacted] several hundred miles away.

    When questioned by local authorities Mr trio's reaction was reportedly initially grief stricken, his initial comments when told about the event was "I didn't...it wasn't supposed, he's not real..." before finally breaking down into an almost catatonic shock.

    3 years later, in September of 2000, four of Mr. Trio's work associates committed suicide by drowning themselves in their bathtubs. The first two victims both resided in [Redacted] while the other two lived in [Redacted] and [Redacted], three states away from each other. The only thing tangibly connecting the victims with each other, apart from their methods of suicide was that they all knew Felix Trio.

    Upon investigations from both the FBI and U.S. Marshall's office, Mr Trio promptly told officials to [Redacted] off, and that maybe they should try looking for "the boogeyman".

    A disturbing trend of drowning continues to follow anyone directly involved either romantically or in a platonic sense with Mr Trio, to date no distinct evidence has risen tying Mr. Trio to any of these deaths.

    To date, Mr. Trio works as a Medical Supplies Sales rep. A profession which requires him to travel almost constantly year round, across the entire continental United States.


    * Defining characteristics: Aloof, snarky, and quite cynical when you really get to know him. Quick-witted under pressure but quite awful in conventional social situations. Otherwise completely average in appearance.

    * Prior convictions, if any (required for Class D applicants): N/A (Though under investigation by both the [Redacted] Police departments, as well as the Federal Bureau of investigation and the United States Marshall's office.

    * Weight: 140

And then it got sort of blurry after that...
    * Defining characteristics: Short, almost-white blonde hair. Extensive scars across her face, include two creating a Joker-like grin. Can sing, but only sad songs. Orange tattoo wrapped around her left arm.
    * Prior convictions, if any: 4 murders and 3 assaults, got off on temporary insanity plea. 6 murders and 4 attempted murders that occurred in the week after the drugs wore off, including 3 police officers attempting to subdue her.

    Name: Peregrine Earnest
    Age: 23
    Sex: Male
    Height: 5'10"
    Weight: 152 lb.
    Personal history: A habitual liar with no clear consistent identity and no persistent records, Perry Earnest (presumably an assumed name) has been IDed up and down both coasts of the United States, generally running some form of con game. He claims to be trained in the use of a number of forms of weaponry, although these claims have never been confirmed, and has convinced several state and local officers of the law that he in fact outranks them, despite a lack of any clear credentials with regards to his claims.

    Perry has provided the following "backstories" for his life at varying points in time. While all have been connected to him, no conclusive evidence can be made regarding the veracity of any one of them:

    1: Born to a poor white family in rural Pennsylvania, Perry grew up primarily on a farm and only managed to get away from the rural life when he got a scholarship to Roger Williams. As a young man he was well built and considerably stockier, and renowned on the farm as a pugilist, but when money got tight during college, he ended up becoming anorexic for a number of years, a habit which he has recently broken. He was attending college for a degree in the sciences, although undecided as to what degree he would actually be obtaining, and dropped out partway through his sophomore year, at which point he moved to Washington D.C., where he engaged in some form of organized crime, although the actual details of what he was doing are hazy.

    2: Born to a wealthy California lawyer and his secretary, Perry was raised in secret to avoid drawing the attention of the lawyer's wife. However, he still had the best care available to him, and was preferred by his father to all of the children he'd had within the confines of his marriage. It was due to this that Perry ended up attending law school, masquerading under an intern sponsorship program through his father's law office to prevent anyone from becoming suspicious. Perry studied fencing and judo at school, got heavily involved in student government, joined a community service fraternity, and graduated with a bachelor's in legal studies summa cum laude. He was supposed to be attending law school following his graduation, but mysteriously disappeared.

    3: Raised by a middle class family in northeastern Massachusetts, Perry was actually adopted from a family that could not afford to keep him. His adoptive father slowly descended into alcoholism throughout the course of his childhood, leading him to become closer and closer to his adoptive mother. When his adoptive father attempted to batter his adoptive mother, he defended her, breaking his adoptive father's nose and shattering both the bones of his forearm with a decorative lamp. At this point he was kicked out of the house, and attended a police training academy on funds unknown, where he slipped through all sorts of training without any legal identity required. Partway through the course, he disappeared, removing with him a great deal of police equipment, including contraband that was evidence for ongoing cases. His adoptive father was later found dead with a heroin needle sticking out of his arm, overdosed.

    While all of these stories do have actual connections to police records and governmental files, none of them can specifically be traced back to Peregrine Earnest, nor can they necessarily be connected between one another.


    Defining characteristics: Handsome, but otherwise average looking thin male of Anglo-Saxon descent. Addictive personality, currently appears to addicted to nicotine and caffeine.
    Prior convictions, if any:
    2 counts breaking and entering
    1 count impersonating a governmental official
    1 count assault with a deadly weapon

    Has been accused of and cleared of a great deal more crimes, mostly incidents of the same caliber. Additionally, these are also only the convictions associated with a man identifying himself as Peregrine Earnest. Given the overall nature of his character, it is to be assumed that he has been accused of and possibly convicted of other crimes under another assumed identity.

    I added a few things, in italics.

    man, seriously?

    I've never watched x-files, did I really rip it off

    Nah not really

    Pretty great episode though
    Essentially it's this part parasitic leech part human enemy, created due to Chernobyl and transported into the New Jersey sewer systems. It attacks people and infects them so that they have a smaller leech like creature grow inside of them. They capture it and it escapes and they end up cornering it and chopping it in half with a sewer grate. End of the episode they talk about regenerative properties and you see the half of its body open its eyes back up.
