Strengths:
Red is rather muscular from years of work in the local lumber mill, a job that has taught him to make a fist as well as he can swing an ax. Aside from that he is rather mechanically minded, being able to fix most things from a car to most machines that hes familiar with. He also was raised around guns and has become a fairly decent shot over the years.
Flaws:
Red is only a few steps away from being considered the town drunk and on top of that he has a pack a day habit. Known to be relatively quick to anger (especially when drunk) Red has found himself in several fist fights over things ranging from serious to trivial. He also has become fairly in debt to a few shady people due to his less than stellar gambling career.
Personality:
When sober Red is a somewhat quite individual and is normally rather kind hearted. On the rare nights he hasn't had a drink he regularly keeps to himself, but for the most part he can be found at a local bar or on the job for “Woodchuck Inc”, a local woodcutting business. However Red is also known to become rather outspoken after consuming a few drinks, openly commenting on anything he sees that he dislikes as loudly as he sees fit. Due to this hes been banned from a good number of bars.
History:
Dare was born and raised in Blue Hill Maine, living on the outskirts of town in the local trailer park known by the locals as “Red Rust Trailers”. Growing up with his father mother and younger brother Bill he never learned what a real family was. Between his fathers nightly alcoholic beatings and his mothers blatant neglect Dare was more then ready to move out by the time he turned 18(when he grew up he found out his mother had had bipolar disorder.). Ironically when he did finally grow up he never actually moved out of “Red Rust Trailers”, one of the poorer parts of town, but he made damn sure his trailer was as far away from his dysfunctional family as could be. Growing up his father had given him plenty of issues, ranging from a fear of the government to his nightly beatings as a child, but one good thing he did do for him was get him a job at the same company he had worked at all the years he “raised” Dare. The company was known as “woodchuck inc.”, a company that specialized in cutting down the large pine forests just south of town. The pay was more then decent and it was a steady job (as long as they didn't run out of trees to cut.) Sure, the work was demanding but Dare honestly didn't mind one bit, honestly there was something cathartic in swinging a large ax into trees day after day. To this day he still lives in Blue Hills, content to cut wood and drink the rest of his days away.
