CHARACTER NAME: Tommy Monaghan
CHARACTER SERIES: Hitman (DC comics)
SUMMARY: An unusually ethical local Gotham-born hitman gets bitten by a demon parasite thing during some 90s comics event bullshit, activates his metagene and gives him ink black eyes that he hides behind sunglasses at all times (thanks, body image issues. BUT - also gave him x-ray vision and ability to read minds. Gives him a migraine, though.)

Is extremely good at his job. Once outgunned the 𝔏𝔬𝔯𝔑𝔰 𝔬𝔣 𝔱π”₯𝔒 π”Šπ”²π”« πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘. Specializes in dealing with The Weird Bullshit that Nobody Else Wants to Deal With. Vampires, members of the mob and fellow criminals who knew what they were getting into, supervillains, escaped science experiments, metahumans, demons, aliens, zombies, etc. Will not take contracts on innocents. Will only kill β€œbad guys” and scumbags, is aware he is technically a scumbag himself. Will fight superheroes if they're in the way though, cause that’s, like, self-defense. Really trying his best, though.

FUN FACTS: Has previously thrown up on Batman’s boots. Has kneecapped the Joker (hate that guy). Genuinely admires Superman. Genuinely believes in the American Dream. Does not use his x-ray vision to cheat at poker. Loves his friends.

[ OUT OF CHARACTER ]

Backtagging: Yes
Threadhopping: Yes, but contacting first would be very much appreciated.
Fourthwalling:
π–₯” To him: I don't mind, get as cracky as you want. He's from a fairly obscure strip from the 90s so it might not be likely that anybody would have read anything about him, but he does exist in the DC universe. So if he's like yeah, I broke into Arkham and shot the Joker in the knee and threw up on Batman once, feel free to react however.
π–₯” From him: He does make references to 90s pop culture things and e.g. star wars, etc, of which he is a big fan. I'm fine with avoiding that, if you'd prefer that he not!
Offensive subjects (elaborate): No triggers for me at all, I'm fine with engaging with anything, dark material, or any type of character.

[ IN CHARACTER ]

Hugging/Kissing/Flirting with this character: Yes! Debatably effective, but go for it.
Fighting with this character: Hell yeah!
Injuring this character (include limits and severity): Minor injuries alright, but lets talk it out before broken bones or severe injuries.
Killing this character: I'm up for it, but talk to me first!
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Yeah, sure! Feel free to contact me so we can hash out the details of what your character finds, if anything. Tommy has telepathic abilities of his own, but I won't use those without prior agreement.

Powers: 1) Telepathy, 2) X-ray vision.
Using telepathy gives him a very bad headache and he tries to avoid it as much as possible.

Warnings: Hitman is generally a light-hearted canon, but there are a lot of sensitive topics from the material.
π–₯” Tommy is a hitman, if unusually ethical, so any warnings that might reasonably be inferred from that. Violence, guns, etc
π–₯” Briefly being a literal mercenary (in the 'hired by a foreign country to train a militia' sense) as well as a metaphorical mercenary, witnessed war crimes that may be mentioned in passing
π–₯” Nicotine addiction, chain smoking references
π–₯” Sibling separation
π–₯” Child abuse (mentioned)
π–₯” Gambling addiction
π–₯” Patricide
π–₯” Torture, nipple removal (his left one πŸ˜”)
π–₯” Cheating in a monogamous relationship (it’s him, he cheated)
π–₯” He has x-ray vision that he usually uses for shooting and staying alive purposes, but has also frivolously used it to check out Wonder Woman for comic effect exactly like a twenty-something dude written in the 2000s. Otherwise drinks his respect women juice.
I'll be staying away from using x-ray vision in threads for inappropriate purposes.
