Overview

Alias(es): Nick Finch

Real Name: Nicholas St. Christopher Finch

Age: 78, appears mid-30s

Concept: Disheveled Degenerate Detective

Entitlement:

Physical description: Disheveled, slightly damp, and smelling faintly of old cigarette smoke and cheap whisky, Nick seems to suffer from a complete aversion to washing machines, dry cleaning services, and hot irons. His clothes are always rumpled, with that faint sense that he has worn the same suit every day for the past several years. And possibly slept in it. And that's his Mask. Nick's mien is even worse, accentuating the yellow stains on his fingers and teeth, his bloodshot eyes, and changing the sickly pallor of his skin to the jaundiced yellow of renal failure. His breath literally smokes, as even without a cigarette in hand he still exhales a constant stream (and then promptly inhales a good portion of the same cloud). He lacks the frenetic energy of most other smoke elementals, but instead seems extremely solid to the touch, with a slightly hunched lope to his movements.
