	:Amal Kitchings		:Amal Kitchings, an African-American policeman who tried to blackmail Jack into doing right. Jack subsequently anchored him.
			:Amal has a very good head for numbers, which is why Jack has put him in charge of his illegal operations.
			:Amal is also an alcoholic, a fairly recent change, possibly brought on by his inability to cope with his newfound criminal position. This explains Jack's tight hold on Amal.

	<b>Personality</b>: Jack's real focus is on the ambiguity of shadows. More business gets done in the shadows than in the open, where the legal system can shine its spotlight. However, even the legal system has its nooks and crannies. For instance, criminals are not guilty as long as there is the shadow of a doubt. A person can disappear into the shadows, and their whereabouts will be unknown until they return to the light, whether as a living human or a corpse. This makes for a very good business tool, and Jack understands good business. Jack is not at all a moral personality, merely constrained by social systems which he can not bend to his own will. However, whenever he can break the rules without backlash, he does so. He is also very cynical (duh! He'd have to be to be such a creep.)		<b>Personality</b>: Jack's real focus is on the ambiguity of shadows.

	<b>History</b>:Jack Hopkins was a gas station owner who owned 7 small mom 'n' Pop locations in Tennessee. Via many shady dealings, he became a millionaire, but unfortunately, criminals rarely stay moneyed for long. A vice cop caught up with him, but instead of furthering his own career at Jack's expense, he blackmailed him. Jack was required to donate a large percentage of his earnings to a series of dummy corporations or Amal Kitchings would reel him in. As a result, despite the fact that Jack is raking in the dough, he can spend very little of it. For this, he would kill Amal, given half a reason.		<b>History</b>: Jack Hopkins was a gas station owner who owned 7 small mom 'n' Pop locations in Tennessee.

	To Jack, the hurricane was nothing more than an opportunity to make more money, particularly when the oil flow shut down. Jack jumped on the price increase before anybody else could take advantage of the economic disaster, and earned quite a bit of money before anybody even thought to check for price gouging, then dropped his prices shortly thereafter. Jack has a very good head for timing, after all.		To Jack, the hurricane was nothing more than an opportunity to make more money, particularly when the oil flow shut down.
