Background

Nothing says local boy done good like Tommy The Bloody Leprechaun Kerrigan. The youngest of 9 children, the little man of the house had to be good to keep from getting stuffed in dumpsters and rolled down the street. He took up boxing at an early age as an outlet for his limitless aggression and incredibly short fuse. Thinking he was going to have to work the docks while seeking his big break, an ad on TV have him great ideas: Why kill myself loading cargo when I can get paid for doing stuff like those famous New York guys?

Not the smartest boy, bless his heart, Tommy didn't think this all the way through, like the time he and his brothers tried to... well, anything his brother tried. Still, he's a good kid that knows the right things to say so long as you don't go past 8th grade stuff. It's a wonder he got the job, but he just seemed so nice...

Appearance

Tommy's 5'9", 154 pounds with a crushing left hook. A born and raised Southie, he's looks and sounds working-class Irish all the way with brown hair, green eyes and a voice like he just came off the boat despite being 7th generation. Only 19, he has moved out of his mom and dad's place into the Ghostbusters Headquarters, much to the complaints of his mom.
