ANTHONY EDWARDS

NAME: Anthony Edwards
NICKNAMES: Tony, Tony Stark (his love of Iron Man comics)
AGE/BIRTHDAY: 81, looks about 40 or so/April 4th, 1930
OCCUPATION:Invitus bracelet making, he also helps the Wardens out whenever he can, taking patrols if nobody wants them
GENDER: Male
SPECIES: Werecat
JOB: Owner of The Wild
SEXUALITY: Heterosexual
EXPERIENCE?: Been building mechanics and weapons since the Cold War of the 1950's, fought in World War II (16, later near the end of WWII) and Vietnam, using his shifting skills to hide among the trees and survive, used to run a bar for a few years.

INNATE ABILITIES: Tony's a gifted mechanic as well as singer, though he loves to build things more than sing. He also has a knack for telling jokes or stories stone faced.
SPECIES ABILITIES

Being a werecat, Tony is stronger and faster than most humans, stronger more than fast. His form is a sumatran tiger and he can shift rather quickly, but not as fast as the Blake sister Kitty. He actually likes his shift and shifts two or three times a month, his shift being a rather calm but dominate force. Both him and his shift are rather narcissistic but his shift is more inclined to help others.

RECOMMENDED BY?: Tony was recruited to make the Invitus Bracelets
EXPERIENCE

Tony was involved in building the atomic and hydrogen bombs of the 1950's, so he knows a lot about explosives to build the Invitus bracelets, for Warden jobs he was in many wars for the United States, being a quick healer he did well and earned many medals and climbed to the rank of Lieutenant.

DESIRED? He builds the bracelets for all invitus, but he wouldn't mind working with teenagers, they seem to have more fun

HISTORY:

Born at the beginning of the Great Depression, Anthony Edwards quickly learned that you need to work for what you want, not everything is handed to you. He also learned that his family were werecats, that shifted during the full moon and any time their emotions went crazy. His parents lived and worked during the Civil War, so they kept a positive outlook on life, hoping that the Great Depression would be over. Tony's hometown was New York City, where many Hoovervilles were in the parks and dumps, but also where many people were rich and famous. Now, if you're wondering why Anthony's family didn't have enough money from living that long, they didn't exactly keep all their money, they invested a lot.

When Tony turned 10 World War 2 started and the US was trying not to get involved, but then Pearl Harbor happened and the US was launched into War. His father signed up to join and was killed when trying to island hop with the army to Japan. Got a gunshot to the head. His mother was nearly beside herself with grief, him being her mate, so Anthony had to support him and his sister by getting odd jobs around town. He eventually started helping local mechanics with building cars and tanks for overseas. When he was old enough to enlist he did and went into training, but the war ended before he could go and fight. Because he was, technically, in the war, he became a World War II Veteran.

He still lived with his mom and sister, trying to support them. He got a job at the gas station and became one of their best mechanics, of course he went to high school, but because of the Cold War many, including Tony, were afraid of Nuclear Annihilation. He went to school with the government's help and earned a college degree in physics and chemistry. He also continued to work on his mechanics skills and eventually got a job with the government in testing nuclear weapons and building the hydrogen bomb. Needless to say everything went smoothly (if you count the tons of nuclear radiation smooth).

In the 1960's Kennedy was President, and boy did things nearly explode. The Cuban Missile crisis, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and all the racial tension in the south, and, in the late 1960's the VIETNAM WAR!! Tony enlisted, despite his mother and sister begging him not to, as that was how they lost their father, but Tony said he had to do this, that and he wanted to see combat and try his shift overseas. So he was one of the first units sent out there, and boy was that crazy. Because he healed fast bullets didn't affect him much and because of his hearing and sense of smell he could hear bombs before they hit his team and he could sense traps and the enemy in the thick jungle. When his teammates did get under fire Tony shifted and took out the enemy as a tiger, mauling them with his claws and teeth. The tiger that helped the US out was nicknamed "Red Ghost", because he'd always appear when the team was nearly ready to surrender.

When Tony came back from Vietnam he was a changed man. It took him a long time to get back to a normal state of mind. Being in a war that...gruesome nearly made Tony go insane, but after a while, and some therapy, he got over it, and reading The Things They Carried helped a lot too. In the end he was satisfied. He owned a few custom car shops to keep his family afloat, and even saved money for a rainy day, so his family was becoming more and more financially stable as the years went by. Now in the 2000's, Tony should be an old man, but thanks to being a werecat, he still looks relatively young. He now works at Black Springs, making the Invitus bracelets as well as running The Wild and helping the Wardens with patrols.

(CRAP HISTORY mostly because I got lazy and it's got tons of history in it and it's late just....tell me to change things if you don't get it)

PERSONALITY:

Tony is not humble in any way, but he can be if persuaded. He loves to build things for himself but will help others if needed. He'll give to those who need it, but only those. He'll do things mostly for himself and only for himself. He loves himself, but he loves girls more.

He also can tell jokes stone faced. He can have a straight face and tell the funniest story and never crack a laugh. He's quite serious when he wants to be and can do anything hilarious and it will never show on his face.

Tony loves to fix cars, and sometimes he'll speak to them like they are his kids. He'll also do things on a whim, like getting drunk and dancing with one of the teenagers at the club. Yea he's hot enough for that, he likes flings, so sue him.
