Overall Personality - Tobias is a happy guy. He loves to laugh and have a good time. He has a love of music, and will sometimes randomly break out into song. He is quite fond of old Irish folk music. He's not much of a brawler, but if a fight does break out, he uses his wits and what have been called "dirty tricks" to ensure he and his comrades have the upper hand. He loves his drink and he loves his women. He prefers to try and woo said strumpets instead of just looking for girls with a price tag. He likes the challenge. Maybe one day he'll settle down, but it'll take a mighty special woman to accomplish that. His loyalty knows no bounds, as long as it is earned. Betray him, and he will do everything in his power to make the perpetrator's life miserable. Or end it. It all depends on how serious the betrayal.

Your History -
Tobias was born into a lower class family on Persephone. His father worked as a mechanic, while his mother worked as a seamstress. Tobias spent much of his childhood in his father's shop, trying to learn everything he could so he could be "just like dad". Unfortunately, he just didn't seem to have any natural ability in the field. Realizing this, Tobias's father, a former Alliance soldier, set about teaching his son to use a firearm. The first lesson, and the most important according to his father, was to never take a life when sparing it could be more beneficial. “Fight first with your head, Toby.”

He was thirteen when the Unification War began, and young Tobias's father joined the Independents in their fight for freedom. Tobias missed his father fiercely, and eagerly awaited his return from the front. Sadly, this wish would never be realized. Just two years after the outbreak of the war, Sean Kelly was shot down outside of New Kasmir. Anger and hatred filled the now fifteen year old boy. He kept his hate fire burning until his seventeenth birthday.

Not long after that, he enlisted with the Independent Army. Since he showed some promise, they threw him into scout sniper training. Soon, he was thrust into battle with the 217th Forward Assault Battalion under Major Sidney Bainbridge. He was with the 217th until the end of the war. He wouldn't have made it out of Serenity if Major Bainbridge hadn't risked his own life to save him.

After the war, he moved back to Persephone and took up residence near the Eavesdown Docks. He took jobs guarding shipments and taking in local bounties. Recently, he heard some over confident sod mention a contract on a certain Independent Major. Determined to pay back the debt he still owed the man, Tobias started tailing the bounty hunter.

Roleplay Example -
Tobias sat in a bar near the Eavesdown Docks, nursing his drink. The pub was a popular place to go for information on potential jobs. Bounty hunting wouldn't have been his first choice, but he did alright at it and it paid the bills. Today seemed a slow day, however, and it was likely the only thing Tobias would accomplish was a heavy buzz.

"Yeah, I'm gonna take in that ol' Inna'pennant. He's not worth too much, but it's bigger than what I've been gettin' lately."

Tobias's ears perked up. Anytime another hunter started to run his mouth kind of reckless was a perfect opportunity to poach his target. The drunken slob took a long drag of a cigarette before ordering another drink.

"Yep, that Bainbridge won't know what hit 'im."

'Bainbridge?'

A smile crept across Tobias's face.

'You'll never get to him.'
