==Jack Leland (Jacob Farnham)== [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1x2ohHbDximakr0gqhCWUsSOa8a0JuWe9/view Picture] ===Background=== Jacob Farnham was born to Veronica Stadtler, herself the daughter of a woman who was the illegitimate daughter of one of the bad old mob leader members of the Laskowski family. In fact she worked her way back into the family as a servant after her father’s death as a method of getting close to exact revenge about how she had been neglected, and was instrumental in passing on information that helped to lead to the downfall of that part of the family. Ironically, her daughter kept her relationship with the remnant of the family for her personal interest, using old contacts to make a good side gig as a supplier of illegal magical supplies (even though neither her nor her mother had any magical ability of their own). Her son was raised with children of that Laskowski branch, and got particularly close to their oldest daughter, Tatiana; this closeness exposed him to magical activities and ended up revealing that unlike his mother and grandmother he was a latent mage. And then it came apart. Because of course the OCD had kept an occasional eye on the Laskowskis just in case, and they finally figured out the connection between Veronica Stadtler-Farnham and certain illegal materials working their way into town. Jacob’s parents were killed in an accident during the attempt to arrest her that involved certain highly volatile alchemical materials cooking off during gunfire. In his mid teens at this time, Jacob fled and went to ground, and then when he came to his senses, realized that he’d likely find himself under all the wrong scrutiny based on his mother and his magical abilities. For a couple of years he moved from town to town elsewhere, using his magic and knowledge from his mother of the occult underworld to keep himself alive. But over time, he came to detest a lot of what he saw around him. He wanted to do something about it, but knew with his background he’d be fighting an uphill fight to become involved in law enforcement. So using his contacts, he constructed a new identity: Jack Leland, abandoned on doorstep at a young age and kited from foster home to foster home. He joined the Boston Police Academy, and graduated without anyone detecting his false identity, soon moving into undercover work (because his background made it easy for him to fit in), and then quietly brought himself to the attention of the OCD, who snapped up the young undercover mage. ===Stats=== ---- {| | width="10%" valign="top" | {| class="wikitable" |+ |- |'''Bloodline''' |'''''Half-Blooded''''' |- |'''Archetype''' |'''''Grunt''''' |- |'''Arcana''' |'''''Death''''' |- |'''Scene Points''' |'''''4''''' |- |'''Parents''' |'''''Both deceased''''' |- |'''Siblings''' |'''''None''''' |- |'''Childhood''' |'''''Life Long Friend''''' |- |'''Adolescence''' |'''''Caught Up in Criminal Activity''''' |- |'''Occupation''' |'''''Undercover Policeman''''' |- |'''Status/Wealth''' |'''''Criminal Family (2500/12500)''''' |- |'''Complication''' |'''''Secret (True Identity)''''' |- |} | width="10%" valign="top" | {| class="wikitable" |+Talents |- |'''Combat Sense''' |''''' ''''' |- |'''Alternate ID''' |''''' ''''' |- |'''Silent Caster''' |''''' ''''' |- |} | width="10%" valign="top" | {| class="wikitable" |+Languages |- |'''English''' |'''''4''''' |- |'''Russian''' |'''''3''''' |- |'''Spanish''' |'''''3''''' |- |'''Cantonese''' |'''''2''''' |- |} | width="10%" valign="top" | {| class="wikitable" |+Attributes |- |'''STR''' |'''''3''''' |- |'''HLT''' |'''''4''''' |- |'''REF''' |'''''4''''' |- |'''WLP''' |'''''4''''' |- |'''CHR''' |'''''3''''' |- |'''INT''' |'''''3''''' |- |'''HP''' |'''''48''''' |- |'''MP''' |'''''25''''' |- |'''Heal Rate''' |'''''8 HP/day''''' |- |'''Magic Rec.''' |'''''4 MP/hour''''' |- |'''Initiative''' |'''''1d8+9''''' |- |'''Movement''' |'''''11'''' |- |'''Dmg.
