If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one? - Abraham Lincoln

Right, so it is finally time to have an introduction with the protagonist. Now, needlessly to say, the protagonist is a vital part of any show. However, he does not have to be the 'hero.' The age of the heroes have come to an end because people simply has seen too much of them. Now, I am all for having someone virtuous in the show, but I don't think the protagonist always is the right character to fill out that way. The protagonist needs to be slightly dark and not too virtuous, but not too vile either. This is not necessarily compromising on his ability to communicate and it does not nullify his conscience. However, he has to be able to manipulate, to lie and to show commitment and leadership qualities.

So, this is not your average goody goody, but someone capable to do what is needed to accomplish his goals. Remember, it is on the spot, so don't kill me for whatever flawed logic may occur.

Name - Dale

Race - Human

Traits - Manipulation, combat, stealth, weaponry and computing.

Story - A fairly complex character that is easily recognizable by his determination and non cocky attitude. Calm, collected, can pull up some one liners as well as someone who got a library of home made quotes. He is quite direct and can pull a cheap one, he is by no means any more endurable than a tough human, but he is not immortal nor does he have super reflexes or any kind of super hero powers. He is just tough, fast and knows how the world works. He wants to do more bad than good, but it is not always that easy.

Simply put, he masterminds most of the operations even though he can also be fooled from time to time which he inevitably will. He can get infuriated, beyond reason at times even. He will also not let a past grudge simply rest like that. He will do what he sees is fit to achieve his own sense of justice. He has personal connections to few, but he is very serious about protecting them, any others in some ways could be identified as either useful tools or useless obstacles.
