Warnings for Drifter are at the bottom, but if you have a problem with anything to do with Drifter either opt out by PMing me or just don't respond to tag ins. I will absolutely leave you alone if there's no interest.


THE MAN WITH NO NAME
At face value what you get is a greasy weasel man. A car salesman. A Charleton. He's the type of guy that so many find annoying, or he's the type of guy that's fun as hell to be around. He's the uncle that encourages you to get into trouble by leaving rocks in the mailboxes of people you hate. He's a salesman that convinces you that those Ginsu knives are good for both cooking and home protection. He dresses flashy and with a theme, but not with extravagance. His style is a perfect combination of Shanghai and Tombstone.

For all intents and purposes he comes off as a coward when confronted. It makes him underestimated. His hands are as quick for wielding weapons as they are at flinging coins. He backs out of fights with his hands raised and with a cringing smile. Why would you worry about poor little old Drifter?

Poor little Drifter has a brutal hatred for being threatened though. When he's angry, menacing, his tone growls with rage. He bites in hard words. When he's planning an attack, his smile is all teeth and creases his steel-gray eyes. It's cold and hard, and a bitter difference from his warm salesman persona.

Someone with enhanced senses might notice he smells like gun grease and charcoal soap. After he's been working, he might even be greasy to shake hands with, grimy with soot. He's not especially worried about how this comes off.

The worst place one can find themselves is in Drifter's mind. There's constant, hateful murmuring in an evil tongue. The voices of The Nine, of Ur (the Ever-Hunger), possibly even of the Witness. All old and distant figures of darkness. You know. The best thing to know someone's thinking about in the back of their head

Be Notorious
-Weapons smith: Drifter makes weapons, both Light infused and kinetic. If he was allowed to make Light infused weapons here, their ammunition comes in the form of glowing bricks that they absorb and create bullets from. So they don't create an endless stream of ammunition or anything. He makers armor to protect people from weapons as well.

-Tech wizard and master of the kludge: A man who can take scraps from enough things and, given enough time and resources, make portals to whole other dimensions. He's a magnificent scraplord. Given enough toothbrushes and old VCRs and time, he could build a portal to another dimension. He can also make use of magical items for construction.

-Rez and heal: He'll heal from any injuries inflicted on him within a few seconds. Unless he dies. Then his body will evaporate after a bit and he'll be resurrected in a nearby location (but away from the thing causing him harm, as that's where his Ghost would safely place him).

-Slight of hand: Good at cards and doing coin tricks and will use these as distractions in fights. It really helps in a gunfight.

-Flying: He can float a little. It's not particularly fast, but it can save him if he falls from a very tall building or if he needs to jump up to a second-story window. Good for very wafty parkour.

-Scanning: His Ghost can scan things. His ghost can scan more than most ghosts because he augmented it to compensate for the Traveller's silence during the red war, which means it sees 'other spectrums of light'. However his ghost can't speak and has a red eye.

-Abilities and Super: He can create energy with his hands that cana inflict mortal injuries or form grenades. Arc, Solar, Void, and Stasis are all abilities he's been noted as using. He can 'super' but has thus far made every effort to not use his extraordinary abilities in canon, preferring to use weapons.
