STRENGTHS
[/BLOCKQUOTE]
- Logical Reasoning: Seth has a unique talent of being able to deduce the outcome of most situations, and even come to a conclusion of how things happen, but being able to take notice of the smallest details in an environment that most fail to recognize. This comes from extensive training in observational awareness, and being able to conclude the most logical solution to nearly any situation.
- Combat Training: His years in the military have allowed him knowledge of extensive hand to hand combat techniques. In most cases, he prefers this method over using firearms.
- Enhanced Abilities From Being a Werewolf: Since becoming a werewolf, Seth's natural strength and abilities have been increased to the peak of the natural, human potential. However, on the three nights of the full moon, his strength is peaked to superhuman levels.
- Skilled Con Artist: Prior to his police life, and his own military life, Seth made a living conning people out of money, jewelry and simple pick pocketing when they weren't looking. Although he has placed his past behind him, it often helps in his investigations.
- People Person: Seth is an overall people person, and has a tendency to connect with others on a personal level, despite his gruff personality since becoming a werewolf.
WEAKNESSES
[/BLOCKQUOTE]
- Silver: Seth exhibits the same weakness as other werewolves. Silver cannot harm him if he touches it, but if it enters his bloodstream, and it will poison him. If left untreated, it will kill him.
- Latent Anger Issues: Because of past experiences during childhood, Seth has anger problems that have been brought to the surface due to his lycanthropy. Constantly he thrashes out at others.
- Trust issues: Seth has a serious case of trust issues, stemming from his past. However, now that he realizes that the supernatural exists, he has a harder time trusting people because they might be more than what they seem.
- Keeping his cool in front of family murderers: Seth's entire family was murdered, and his little siblings were tortured instead of outright killed. When interrogating suspects that have no problem confessing, he often has a tendency to get rough with them. Now that he is a werewolf, he has to control the urge to kill them.
- Children: Seth's main specialty is with kids, and will often risk everything to save the life of a child in danger, even jumping into the line of fire.
LIKES
[/BLOCKQUOTE]
- Coffee: Every cop loves coffee in the mornings. Just to start the day.
- Saving lives: Saving lives helps Seth to come to terms with his own history and who he is.
- Rescuing Animals from Abusive Owners: Since he has become a cop, Seth has adopted a rescue dog from a shelter, and has since been one of the top policemen in the city to take lead in cases involving animal abuse as well.
- A challenge: Seth gets bored easily, so when someone can present him with a challenge, then he can work harder to be a better detective.
- Doing the right thing: Seth has a strong, moral sense of right and wrong and when he feels that he did the right thing, he feels a little better about himself.
DISLIKES
[/BLOCKQUOTE]
- Criminals Set Free: Seth has a respect for law and order, but when the justice system fails, he is one of the first to be outraged by it.
- Abusive Parents: The worst kind of people are those that abuse kids. To Seth, that's where it always starts for some criminals and makes them evil bastards when they grow up.
- Corrupt Cops: Seth has seen them all in the course of his life, and corrupt cops are more often than a person thinks.
- Being Late on a scene: Seth makes it a point to get to a crime scene as soon as possible, so as to keep from missing vital and important things.
- Failing to save a life: Every innocent life is important to Seth and failing to save one kill him on the inside.
HISTORY
Seth Young was born and raised in New York. When he was just ten years old, he watched in horror as his parents and two younger siblings were butchered by a murderer. Seth only survived because he hid. Growing up, Seth took a bad path and began to get in to a lot of fights in school. After being arrested for arson, he was given a special choice to either go to prison, or go into the military. Choosing the latter, he served in the US Army as an MP, and was discharged after being wounded in combat in Afghanistan. After being discharged, he joined the NYPD and was a member of a SWAT team not long after. He was instantly recognized for his uncanny ability to take notice to his surroundings and distinctively predict that logical vantage points a criminal would take.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
However, after a brief scuffle with a corrupt policeman, who was pushing drugs in a neighborhood that Seth patrolled, he was considered to relocate to Los Angeles, where he was soon given the position of Detective instead. Seth would do well there as a cop, until one night changed his life forever.
It was supposed to have been an animal attack, but the victim did not make it to the hospital alive. Not long after, another attack was reported, and Seth followed suit of the apparent animal that was sighted in the area, with reports claiming that it was a large wolf. It was sighted in an alleyway, but as Seth approached it, the beast lunged for him and bit into his shoulder before reinforcements arrived and the creature managed to get away. Seth does not know what it was, or where it came from, but it has suddenly made a change on his life.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Seth is going to be a conflicted character, dealing with past events that haunt him, and coming to terms with new things in his life. The supernatural is a new thing to him, but that does not mean that he wants any part of it.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
