Derek J Byrne's page

Description: Derek has a rugged look about him that is only furthered by the numerous scars he has collected, especially the three parallel scars running right in front of his ear, down his left cheek and stopping just on the other side of his chin. Derek has dark rusty red hair and a lean physique that he hides under thick baggy clothes when he can. Derek is usually wearing a dark green sleeveless shirt, cargo pants, a thick hunting jacket, and heavy brown boots.

Background: Derek Byrne was raised in upstate New York by his parents Michael and Lisa Byrne. Growing up Derek wanted for very little as his family was relatively well off

Virtue: Patience; Over the years hunting and being in the outdoors has taught Derek to be extremely patient, sometimes the weather, terrain, or a hundred other factors simply don't favor you and you need to wait. However sometimes you can wait to long and an opportunity can pass you by. Derek carries this outlook over to his dealings outside of the natural world as well.

Vice: Wrathful; Despite his patience Derek has never taken insults or threats particularly well. if someone insults or even threatens Derek himself he may be able to shrug it off once, maybe twice but if they continue or make a threat or insult against his family or someone he considers a friend and they're likely to get a fist in the face, gods save anyone stupid enough to get Derek truly angry while he has his bow.
