User:Jack Firebaugh Von Wolfe

Jack Firebaugh Von Wolfe is a magnificent Bastard. Jack is utterly devious. Call it an almost virtual omniscience, but he seems to know nearly what everyone else is planning at any given moment. He knows how to arrange the game so he wins even if he is defeated.

He is a smooth operator. He always has a backup strategy and never loses his cool. Even if there is a remote chance something happened that was not in his plans, it would be hard to tell from his actions. “Didn't see that coming” doesn't derail him; if his plans are foiled, he can always improvise.

He has goals. He will not stop until he’s completed it, whatever it is. To that end, he will do anything. He will move heaven and hell. despite his choice of tactics, he is rarely if ever pointlessly cruel and has some reason for everything he does.

He is Charismatic, Often charming. People tend to like him even if they are not on his side. And those who hate his guts have to admit respect. Even at his darkest, he has traits which one can't help but admire.

Jack Is Genre Savvy. He does not fall for obvious traps, he isn’t one to “release the sealed evil in a can” or “negotiate a deal with the devil” before having devised the plan to deal with it.

While usually an antagonist, especially if he's the “Big Bad”, Jack can be aligned on either side of a conflict. Hell, he's so amazing he tends to forgo the idea of good and evil altogether, instead following his own agenda, choosing to help whichever side will further his goals. However, it's true that his penchant for manipulation at the expense of others means it's common for him to be a Villain, Villain Protagonist, or at least an Anti-Hero,. Either way, he's usually in charge of whatever organization he's involved with, or might as well be.
