Description
Don't know why I like my ass kickers to be old dudes, but I do. Maybe it's the air of learned bad assery or the character that older guys have in the face. Ah well, it shall be a question left to the ages I supposeAnyway, meet Jingo! Another character who popped into my head last week while I was at work.
Obviously he's a fire bender who's body's seen some rather rough patches (course unlike Shou, he still has all his eyes and hands
Off hand, he's kind of developing into some sort of mercenary who has something inhibiting fear in his brain which is why he's willing to charge headfirst into situations that could cause massive bodily damage. I saw a documentary some people who had that chemical imbalance and literally couldn't understand fear. He also seems to be developing some sociopath-like traits, although I don't know if he's going to go all the way to full blown sociopath.
Not sure where that kind of character is gonna fit into the grand scheme of things game wise, but he is what he is I suppose.
Ah well. He's a work in progress I suppose
Off hand, the koi tattoo is from some clip art that I found and played with a bit

So what's this guy do that's so evil? Also, I know why you like old bad-asses. Same reason I do. Dome young punk steps up to these guys, They'll get laid out. One normally doesn't expect to get their ass beat by Granddaddy.

Basically I have him down as a merc who just has a vicious streak a mile wide. That and he has no trouble taking jobs that might turn other people off.
And yes...old kick assers indeed just rock.

HO-LY CRAP! THis guy is AWESOME!! * can't stop staring at him. *gets blown up* AHH!!
I've heard about that disorder, if you could call it that. For a while, there was a country trying to make pills that caused this to happen in soilders and what. I have NO clue however if they actually were able tp pull it off or if we have such pills nowadays or not.
His name makes me want to sing a song about him.....*starts to sing* J I N G O! And Jingo was his name *gets blown up* AAAAAHHH!

I like that tattoo too...

Thanks! Yeah I did a random fire bender a few months back (close up used in my avatar here) and decided I should work him a bit more, just to see what came of it. I'm pretty happy so far. He's actually toned down from what I originally thought up which was something like a trained attack man who'd be like a fighting dog for a master. Jingo's not quite that regressed
