as this life starts to take its toll[/font]
Name: David Regnard
Alias: Greystone
Sex: Male
Sexuality: Asexual (For the moment)
Race: Human
Powers/Abilities: He is fast on his feet, and has good aim with a gun. Typical human, though. Throws quite a punch.
Now, due to ZaneCorp's experimentation, David has four nearly indestructuble metal limbs fused into his spine. They are impervious to heat and magnetism, among other things. Electricuting them, however, seems to shut them down for a time.
Age: 42
Height: 6 ft
Weight: He really doesn't want to answer that BUT (he's a bit over 200lbs, mostly a mix of chub and muscle) [is presently about 155 lbs due to major weight loss]
Occupation: Hunter of any kind. Detests anything not human. (has a few exceptions)
Weapon(s): Gatling guns, assortments of pistols or handguns, with the occasional rifle or specialties of his own design.
The four metal actuators on his back.
Accessories: He wears a silver chain that once held a cross on it. He tore it off due to his recent lack of faith. He also has different types of sunglasses he may be seen wearing, secretly being prescription glasses as he is severally near-sighted. his eyes are well rounded, and a dark, rich, chocolate brown.
I hide behind a smile[/font]
Appearance: David has curly, wavy locks of auburn hair, mostly appearing brown until the sun or any type of light hits him. His hair reaches to his neck and stops, as he doesn't much care too much for long hair. He is usually clean shaven, the occasional stubbles grow whenever he has found himself too busy to mind with it. His skin is a slightly tanned tone, but may often be pale, as he rarely goes out during the day - he finds hunting the monsters he does works better at night, after all.
David wears a long trench coat, usually a dark green or a khaki brown, with an upturn collar. He wears comfortable, khaki jeans or anything casual, but usually ends up getting a new pair almost everyday as his clothes tend to get torn up a bit in fights.
He may also wear thick, black, knee high boots, hidden in them knives or any other useful weapon worth an enemy's surprise. David also wears fingerless gloves at times, sometimes having metal knuckle braces hidden under for a harsh punch.
David may not always wear a shirt under his trench coat, as it only gets torn up as much as everything else, and he's more free moving when he removes the coat to fight.
Now with the actuators, he never seems to wear a shirt anymore and sticks with his trench coat where he can hide them a bit more easily.
as this perfect plan unfolds[/font]
Personality: Although at first glance, he appears to be happy in his smile, but he is very much not so. He pretends to not care, to hide his emotions behind a well practiced facade, but he is truly a tortured soul - and one to stand up to what he believes is right. Throughout his misadventures, if one could call them that, he has lost most his faith in God, or even in people; however, he still tries to bring justice, in a sense.
He greatly detests vampires and the like, and wishes to exterminate them. And with good reason. He does not trust any "person" who is not human, but even times may still be cold and cruel to a human being if they get in his way.
David has grown to speak with dark humor, and can often times be sarcastic and cynical. Sometimes he may not say a word to anyone for days at a time. He is a hard book to read, as he can still hide his emotions well; but when he lets his feelings get the best of him, one will know when he does.
Beware of sad brown puppy-dog eyes.
Now that the actuators have come a part of him and talk to him through his mind, David is prone to lose himself and can appear very out of character until he gains control again. He can often times come off as malicious, or talk in a darker, guttural tone when this happens.
But oh, God, I feel I've been lied to[/font]

History:
David Regnard had grown up in a large family of six children, he being the eldest. They lived in a small village up in the Norwegian Countryside. They moved to America when he had turned fourteen, where he began learning English. Over the years, he had lost his Norwegian accent, but he is still familiar with the language, as with some Russian.
During his life in America, he became interested with the sciences, and found a good college where he was accepted. however, along the way, he was spoken to by his priest at the church his family went to. He spoke to him about possibly becoming one himself, to allow him to grow in his faith. Truthfully, David liked the idea; always believing he had wanted to learn the sciences to better believe life - but what better way to learn about life than through God and the Bible?
Of course, it wasn't long until the "creatures of the underworld", came into being; announcing their presence. It was not a good time. They had risen up against the humans to some extent, stealing them away for slavery. Most of David's family had been victims of this- or carelessly slaughtered by the vampires or werewolves. He had never known for sure what creature murdered his family - but we was sure to exact revenge.
It was that this time that he began doubting his faith. If God allowed these abominations to take over, what kind of God was He? To allow such evil to roam- David would not accept it.
The 30 year old Regnard, at this point, then renounced his faith and priesthood, joining a brotherhood of Hunters to learn the "Art" of killing these beasts. After several years of training, he has become quite an expert.
One of the few human hunters out their that have survived so long in the battle. He is not one to easily deal with.
He has gotten the nickname Greystone, a play on words for a "gravestone", as he enjoys hunting his prey in graveyards, or somehow leading them in it. He finds it fitting, as they would soon be dead, or have been labeled"undead".
David had been ambushed by ZaneCorp, then captured and taken in for experimentation. Lucius Erif thought he as the perfect candidate to perform the fusion of machine and human; placing the actuators onto his back and securing it to his nerve system to control the four metal arms. Something went wrong, and what was used to block the AI from David's mind backfired. He now suffers under their influence, and fears losing himself.
On his escape from ZaneCorp, after killing four vampire scientists, he went into hiding for several days, then to reappear with a purple haired vampiress. He had planned to let her kill him, but the actuators took control and killed her. Crashing out of the hotel, he soon was "befriended" by two shapeshifters Anari and Balam. After much "persuading" Anari convinced him to stay at her house until he felt better. On the way there, David blacked out - and the actuators living off him as if he were a battery, shut off as well. Only time will tell to see if things will be all right.
