Name: ((Real Name unknown)) Dr. Strange
Other Names: Jhonen Lee, Peter Brock and Dr. Strange The Homicidal Junk-collecter.
Age: 24
Race: Other members of the Rebellion say "Strange was disqualified from the Human Race for shoving" but he is (on the outside anyway) a human.
Description: About 5'8, "Dr. Strange" has an almost unnoticable hunch from bending over tables a lot of the time. His hair is fair and shoulder-length. His eyes are red, suprisingly, and his left one constantly twitches. His mouth is almost always twisted into an insane smile, and his eyes widen when he sees something new, adding to the whole effect. His frame is frail, but make no mistake, he is suprising quick and light on his feet. He often wears a gas mask that he once found buried under a man's house. He has never had a need for it, but enjoys wearing it to freak people out. He also has a bright yellow top hat that he wears for special occasions and the origin of which is unknown. His usual clothing consists of a body-warmer with a flourescent-green shirt underneath. How he got it that colour is yet another mystery. Below these is a pair of brown-ish slacks. Fingerless gloves made of some strange material yet to be identified and wellington boots which squelch even when it's not wet. Though he has been known to wear many odd articles of clothing.
Personality: Insane is too blunt of a word to describe this madman's personality. You would need a word that combined "obsessive" "homicidal" "unnerving" and "disturbing" to begin to describe him. He laughs in a loud and high manner when there's nothng funny, and is prone to bursting into fits of either visciously graphic homicidal suggestions or how to make various baking products. When he first joined (not that many can remember a time when he wasn't there- he sort of...blends in) people would often take his threats seriously and murmer to their peers about it. Said peers would then laugh at them and so life went on. Dr. Strange is obssessed with old junk from before the fallout, specifically comics and clocks ("A man can never have too many clocks!") and as such many of his names are originated from various comics, even naming himself (his real name long forgotten to dementia) after one of his favourite characters. He also has a strange fixation with making cups of tea (from herbs and dirt) and then not drinking them. It goes without saying that he doesn't have many friends. Not that he minds, but it is even more eerie and disturbing to see him shuffiling around in his boots and poking at things with his tree branch (called Arnold) and poking things around his plethora of junk. He somtimes likes to fiddle with things, and has invented various little gadgets he says "help with the Rebellion, dontchaknow!" So far these include a fan that runs on rat droppings, a gun made of wood that shoots marbles and a pair of glasses that have set of binocular lenses that can be put in front of them. Apart from the "glassnoculars" these are useless, but he gets awfully upset when people say he's not a good inventor. Despite all of the above, Dr. Strange is prehaps one of the most useful assets to the Rebellion there is. He knows the location of every safehouse in the city, every manhole, every tunnel of the sewers, every street, and all of the Night Police patrol routes. This is because he spends a lot of time sitting on rooftops with his glassnoculars, "watching for Batman" as he says. The sewers come from "looking for The Lizard" and the safehouses are "checking for The Legion Of Doom meetings." And people say comics aren't good for anything but wasting space. Strange gets quiet violent if you say a bad word about Spider-man or somesuch. Speaking of Dr Strange and Violence, despite being able to use various weapons (swords, daggers, flails, clubs and anything that fires other things at high speeds towards objects) he prefers to fight with Arnold, his stick. He is suprisingly quick with Arnold, and the stick too is almost supernaturally strong. It can block a blow from a sword and stop an arrow without even splintering. Some say Dr Strange put a metal pole through the middle, but Arnold's true nature is unknown. Also, if he knows he will be going to fight a proper battle, Strange will bring out an enormous fork. It is slightly bend and rusty, but he is immensly proud of it, having made it himself from sheets of metal. The two prongs at the top are dangerously sharp and can skewer a man easily ("Never underestimate a man with a large eating utensil.") However, if taking a stealthy approach, Dr. Strange will take a piano wire. Another item he is usually seen with is his shovel "Winston" with whom he digs up all his "relics." When asked if he would use Winston in a fight, he looked affronted and turned away, shaking his head. He often talks to his little friends, "Inanimate Objects Anonymous" as he calls the little group. This man is beyond mentally disturbed. He is literally thinking on a different plane of existance.
History: Not much is known about this man's past, but the main facts usually told are about a drainpipe, three bricks and three pounds of dogmeat. Anyone hearing the dreadful stories behind these peculiar items will feel a shiver go down their spine. One day, Dr. Strange simply appeared out of nowhere, set up his little corrugated iron hut just outside the city limits and gradually built his little junk paradise around it. After being in the Rebellion for about three months, he took it upon himself to infiltrate The Cavyrn as a spot of fun. He got inside well enough, walked around for about three hours at his lesiure, admiring the architecture, then left just as the Forsaken came bounding down the halls, discovering his scent. Now his ambition is to go back there and take a lock of hair from a Guardian's head. Of course this would cause many people to laugh out loud, but Dr. Strange takes it dangerously serious, and has been planning ever since.
Political Standing: Rebellion, 'cause he feels like it.
Abilities: Knows every crook and nanny (or nook and cranny) in Manticore. His strange choice of weapons may catch the enemy off guard, giving him a chance to make a man-ala-kebab. Suprisingly quick. His biggest chance is his enemy underestimating him.
Weaknesses: He can hold his own against a Human("Normie"), and some of the Forsaken("Weirdies"), and could probably last a while against some of the more inexperienced Loup Garou ("Puppies.") His main weakness is his tendancy to get distracted easily.
