Mr. Gerl

[Cassiel]

Name: Mr. Gerl

Physical Description: Mr. Gerl features are sharp and angular, a true hatchet face with a mouth-filled with the supernaturally sharp teeth. His body is composed entirely of muscles and pieces of black carapace, his long limbs wiry and covered in spines and fins. A set of three silver rings on each ear is his only ornamentation, his usual dress consisting of black slacks and a duster. A whip-thin serrated tail ends in a half-meter long blade, the whole vicious length prehensile and deadly. Mr. Gerl’s hair is stiff like the spines of a porcupine, covered in an itchy toxin that is more than just an irritant. Mr. Gerl’s eyes are small and beetle black, hidden behind his grimacing mask of perpetual fierceness.

Personality Description: Mr. Gerl is only concerned with one thing: protecting Sanctuary and its inhabitants. Some would say that Mr. Gerl is too intense and violent to be anything more than a soldier, but his keen instincts and quick mind make him an excellent head of security. He is a no nonsense Nightbreed that doesn’t take excuses and demands the best from those under his command. Still, he is an asshole, but that comes with the job.

Daily Activities: Mr. Gerl spends his every waking moment ensuring the safety and security of the Nightbreed of Sanctuary. Hanging out patrol assignments, checking defenses, and discussing security actions with Cassiel, Mr. Gerl never rests when it comes to his assigned duties and obligations. In the rare moments when Mr. Gerl does wind down, he may be found reading down in the library. Those crafty enough to get close will notice the title on the dog-eared book Mr. Gerl frequents as Jane Eyre. This is approximately ten seconds before they are soundly beaten and threatened with their unlife by Mr. Gerl if they revealed to any what he was reading.

Roleplaying Guide: Mr. Gerl is unforgiving, stern, and to the point. He does not waste time on tact or politeness, his role is too important for that. He is not arrogant or power hungry, Mr. Gerl just realizes how vital his job is to the continued functioning and existence of Sanctuary. If any Nightbreed were to get rowdy or dangerous, Mr. Gerl would be the first to show up with one of his squad. His duties keep him too busy to police out Naturals directly, so one of his goons are likely to stop any humans from breaking into Sanctuary. Mr. Gerl is a formidable fighter; his original posting at Midian was wrestling the vicious and psychotic Beserkers into their pens. In fact, Mr. Gerl singlehandedly dragged all four of the Beserkers to Coquille and secured them. He is more than just strong, Mr. Gerl is a tactical fighter and an expert at hand-to-hand combat. He earned the mister in his name, and expects everyone to use it!
