−
'''Can't Swim''' - ''Mandatory'' - Kai is fairly lean and dense and floats in much the same way a rock doesn't.  
+
'''Mild Mannered''' - ''Minor'' - A trained soldier wouldn't mistake Fletcher for anything other than the same, but the average John or Jane just can't get past his wrinkled smiling face and low-key approach to everything. He typically clocks people's radar - even other soldier's - as harmless.
 +
 
 +
'''Bad Connections''' - ''Minor'' - Fletcher is a sniper. He is also a murderer. Few enough know about the first. No one knows about the second, all evidence of the act having been erased from existence. Fletcher has no idea who the ''Sons of Londinium'' are or why they chose to intervene on his behalf, but they did, and he's waited years for that chit to be called.
 +
 
 +
'''Elderly''' - ''Major'' - Fletcher is getting on in years. His active lifestyle has kept him fit, and there's nothing wrong with his mind, but there are aches in places there shouldn't be places, and he doesn't recover as quickly as he once did.

Gunnery Sergeant Benjamin James Fletcher put in his full 20 with the corps, spending the bulk of that time attached to a unit even congress didn't really know about - wouldn't ''want'' to know about if they knew what they did.

Kai didn't remember a time when he wasn't as he was. Born to human parents, he most decidedly was ''not'' human himself, but insomuch as was possible, he was raised as though he were.  
 
  
−
Children his own age, when he encountered them, were quick to point out the differences.
+
Didn't look like he was back in the corps, but he was definitely back in, surrounded by children half his age laughing in the way only invulnerable people do.
  
−
The skin of his hands and face was ink-black and rough, and everywhere else he was covered in orange and tawny fur. Including his tail - a feature neither of his parents possessed - and which fascinated other children to no end.
 
  
−
Sometimes painfully so, when they wanted to pull it.
 
  
−
Nevertheless, Kai thrived in the desert world, his lean frame adept and adaptable, his fur offering protection from both cold nights and and the abrasive lash of the sands in a storm, his big hands, with their long fingers, ideally suited to digging and sifting.
+
----
  
−
Because his parents were sand scavengers, most of Kai's formative years were spent outside the protection of city walls and the structure of society at large. Consequently, he never really learned to deal with other people in an easy and natural fashion.
+
'''''Sons of Londinium:''''' During his first enlistment, Fletcher killed a man while he was stateside. He didn't talk about it, but if he ever did, he'd call it justifiable homicide. Unfortunately, the evidence didn't read that way.
  
−
He doesn't make friends easily, but he values those he makes, and has learned to demonstrate his own usefulness in the pursuit of forming connections in the world.
+
The ''Sons'' made all that evidence go gone. Even the body.  
  
−
It was when his mind awoke to the world around him that Kai really grew into his own. The desert came to life with a thousand thoughts, and his body and aura began to interact with the world around him. A man named Fletcher Jon saw his potential, saw what he could become, and took Kai in as his apprentice.
+
Fletcher still didn't know who they were or why they intervened, but Damocles' sword had been his constant companion since.
  
−
Under Jon's guidance, Kai became an adept - a rank similar to journeyman in other trades - earning the right to dye the sides of his beard and the center of his mane crimson to show his rank and affiliation, though there were few enough who would recognize his trade on the weight of those markings alone.

Dossier[edit]

Gunnery Sergeant Benjamin James Fletcher put in his full 20 with the corps, spending the bulk of that time attached to a unit even congress didn't really know about - wouldn't want to know about if they knew what they did. Near the end of his hitch, he began entertaining dark thoughts that when the time came, they weren't really going to let him go.

But they did.

After six dangerously introspective months of puttering around, he joined the LAPD as a bomb-tech.

It was a good life. A good balance of endorphins, adrenaline, and tacos.

Then Lenox had happened.

LA being the Mecca of crazy, there was enough happening that he could have stayed put with plenty to do, but in the wee hours, he couldn't shut off his brain, so he made some calls. Two weeks later, a Huey airlifted him right off the job where he was waiting in the wings in the middle of negotiations with some hostage-holding nutter of a highschool science teacher.

Didn't look like he was back in the corps, but he was definitely back in, surrounded by children half his age laughing in the way only invulnerable people do.


Sons of Londinium: During his first enlistment, Fletcher killed a man while he was stateside. He didn't talk about it, but if he ever did, he'd call it justifiable homicide. Unfortunately, the evidence didn't read that way.

The Sons made all that evidence go gone. Even the body.

Fletcher still didn't know who they were or why they intervened, but Damocles' sword had been his constant companion since.
