Luck never gives; it only lends
Personality: Happy-go-lucky and a free spirit. James has learned to cope well with bad luck as well as good luck and thus all the ups and down don't hold much surprise for him. For every good thing that happens, a bad thing will surely come along, followed by yet another good thing. It's a fact of life and the only thing he can do is take it on the chin and be cheerful, through the bad as well as the good. Saying that, James had a tendency to be... eccentric. If things doesn't seem to be going his way, a little luck seems to befall him. Only a little, for the fear of the backlash however.
Strengths:
-Gambling & Dice
-Luck
-Probability and numbers
-Damn good poker-face
Weaknesses:
-Technophobe
-The backlash is unpredictable.
-Backlash can stack if he uses powers repeatedly
-Tall buildings (Would you want to be on top of a tall building waiting for bad luck to strike?)
Equipment: Pair of dice, playing cards, his hat, and wallet which may or may not be bursting with money... Depends on the haul. He doesn't carry a cellphone, watch, or anything electrical. He runs through so many because luck decides to target those first and make them die... Or explode if his actions were egregious enough. Have you ever seen a cellphone explode? It's damn scary the first time.
History: James is a Gambler, which means his next meal depends on the next throw of the dice or the next hand of cards. As such, he's a known drinker and pretty much the epitome of a gambler. He lives in an apartment in the slums.
