Name: David Shanklin
Age: 37
Job: Un-occupied, homeless

Bio: A drunkard, kicked out of his own home by his wife because of his excessive drinking and gambling, David Shanklin was forced to live a life on the street. His friends wouldn't accept him, his family had exiled him. He had no place in the world. His prolonged disconnection with alcohol has kept him sober for awhile, choosing to spend whatever he could scrounge up to get what he needed to survive. David realized that if he was going to live, he'd have to learn to survive out on the streets. Living out there gave him a need outlook on life and he hoped soon he'd be able to fix his past mistake, and make something of himself. Balance (Ability to walk or crawl across unstable surfaces):

Brawling (Unarmed combat): 2
Climb (Ability to climb things, duh): 3
Drive (Cars, trucks, etc): 2
Melee (Skill with hand to hand weapons): 6
Athletics (Running, jumping): 6
Agility (Squeezing in small spaces):5
Urban survival (Street knowledge): 6
Wilderness survival (Hunting and trapping food, not getting lost): 5
Observation (Ability to spot or hear things): 5

I put points into things I figured a form drunkard/gambling man who's been living on a the streets for awhile would know. I mean, is a homeless guy really gonna know how to use electronics and whatnot? Maybe from a past job, but I figure he'd forgotten by now or something.
