--BASICS--
Name: "Toothpick" Charlie

Age: 39

Sex: Male


--APPEARANCE--
Height: 5' 0"

Weight: light

Build: Scrawny Little Man

Skin: Caucasian

Hair: Dark Brown

Eyes: Blue

Clothing: Wears a pinstripe suit complete with hat and spats


--PERSONALITY--
Overview: Charlie is a businessman through and through. He sells

anything to anyone and is always on the lookout for more

business. He's very hard working and insists on doing all his

business himself, from pick up to delivery. He tends to fidget a

lot and perpetually chews the toothpicks that give him his name.

He hates show offs and people who ask too many questions, but is

usually polite to return customers who see him as a dependable

resource of all things.

--HISTORY--
Background:
Charlie spent most of his life in the city, developing

contacts and relations with people high and low. Because of this

he is known by both politicians and underworld gangsters, though

all tend to keep his dealing on the down low. He is prized as

someone who can get you almost anything for the right price and

won't sell you out.
Recently Charlie began doing a lot of business for the

Lindlater group who discovered his powers. After that they kept

him on an exclusive payroll, though he still does business with

the rest of the city.

--COMBAT--
Fighting Style: Charlie does not fight unless cornered, in which

case he might pull a gun. Other than that he prefers to run

away, or not instigate fighting at all, and he is good at it. He

is a super and has power over chance and probability, making

him luckier than most people. This power usually only extends to

ensuring he never takes a wrong turn and never loses his keys,

but it has also been seen to make him luckier in deals and even

games of chance. He can extend this power to a few other

individuals, though it is hardly noticeable. In a fight though,

that small amount of luck can mean life over death. For example

instead of piercing your heart the bullet might nick off a coat

button and miss any vital organs. The Lindlater group knows this

power is small, but likes to balance the odds in their favor as

much as possible.

--TOURNAMENT--

For the tournament Charlie is enacting his power to give Blayne

the tiniest boost in luck, though this is unknown to Blayne. On

the surface he is there to handle expenses and make sure Blayne

gets places on time. During all this Charlie intends to stay

alive and perhaps even do a bit of business on the side.


--BASICS--
Name: Maximilian Eisler

Age: unknown. Appears early thirties

Sex: Male


--APPEARANCE--
Height: 6' 3"

Weight: average

Build: average

Skin: Caucasian

Hair: Dark Blonde

Eyes: Grey

Clothing: Wears a military uniform from around twenty years ago,

complete with insignia. It appears European. He usually wears a

matching long coat with it that is slightly too big.


--PERSONALITY--
Overview: Max is detached from what most people would consider

humanity. He does not feel strong emotions and cares little for

human life. The only things he really cares about are puzzles

and recognizing patterns in things. He especially likes finding

patterns in human behavior, both on a large scale and in the

individual. he works for the Lindlater Group because it gives

him a good chance to do this. he tends to take things literally

in conversation, not because he cannot recognize sarcasm or

joking but because he doesn't care to.

--HISTORY--
Background:
No one knows where Max came from, only that he showed up

once the Lindlater Group began gaining power. He acts as one of

their main killers and man for dirty jobs, especially when it

comes to supers. He quickly gained infamy in the underworld for

his skills and rumors abounded of his powers and ability to kill

supers. Some began calling him the Grim Reaper, but it never

really caught on. He didn't like the attention.

--COMBAT--
Fighting Style: Max does not see a point in fighting honorably

and does whatever is necessary to get a job done. He is trained

in most firearms and explosives, with skills in close quarters

combat and knives. He tends to use a single action army carbine

for long range and a Luger up close.

Despite the rumors Max does not have any powers. However,

because of his mental detachment it sometimes appears that way.

For one he doesn't flinch when facing a lady who can shoot

fireballs from her fingers. Not many supers realize it, but part

of their strength comes from the awe factor of what they are

capable of. On Max, that is lost.

Along with this is because of his mental difference he is more

resistant to powers that affect the mind and is able to ignore

pain to a large degree. All of this combines into a person who

is willing and capable to take down a guy who turns into a giant

beetle.

Even so he is still human. Rip off enough limbs and eventually

he'll bleed to death. Puncture a lung and he'll have trouble.

Just make sure to finish him off or he might find you later.

--TOURNAMENT--

On the surface Max is there to make sure Charlie and to a lesser

extent Blayne stay alive. He will not get involved in any of the

matches unless absolutely necessary as his orders were not to

help them win.
Secretly he is also there to scout out supers that could be

useful to the Lindlater Group and to eliminate any threats to

them that might arise.
Hi Max, what are you doing there with Toothpick Charlie?

The paragraph seperation is a little hard to read. It cuts off mid-sentence in a lot of places to jump to the next line. Is there any chance of editing that?
