DESCRIPTION:
Collin is a very tall man. He stands in the vicinity of six foot five inches, towering over those around him. He has aged well, as there are minimal signs on his skin and his hair remains largely dirty blonde. He is in shape, but not well built, and intimidates more with his eyes and general aura than anything else. Collin is always dressed in a black tux, ready for business. In addition, Collin has a tattoo covering much of his back. It is a capital A, centred in a crudely drawn sun.
(Collin is played by Stellan Skarsgard)
BACKGROUND:
Balance Personnel File Number 8671 ~
Collin Braddock III was born in the parlour of his father’s mansion. Collin Junior had, since his retirement from the military at the age of forty-five amassed a great fortune through a communications concern, and now, at fifty, was having his second child. The happy day was quickly soured however, as his wife died in labour, and in a fit of rigor mortis took hold of a pair of scissors and stabbed the midwife in the jugular.
It was an odd occurrence.
The next six years of Collin’s life were normal, at least for a child of affluence. He did all the things that children of that age usually do, except that he was home schooled. That changed, however, when Collin was eight and his father hung himself without explanation. The family fortune, and the children, were left to Collin’s uncle, Reginald, then a bitter sixty-five year old. The Uncle quickly shipped Collin’s brother, Eric (aged twelve), to military school. Since Collin was too young, he was stuck with the Uncle.
The next four years for Collin held a day to day ritual of neglect, in addition to a revolving door of nannies and other caretakers. Among other strange activities, Collin referred to his Uncle as Grandfather. On Collin’s twelfth birthday he was shipped to military school, but got kicked out three weeks later having nearly killed a high school senior in a fight.
Reginald Braddock stuck Collin in public school, found a permanent au pair and left him alone. Collin graduated at eighteen and enlisted, seeing some combat as the clean up from the Vietnam War subsided. When he’d returned home, at the age of twenty-two, Collin had achieved the rank of lieutenant.
Reginald disappeared in December of that year. Collin assumes control of Braddock industries.

POWERS/ABILITIES:
Collin also holds a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and a working knowledge of magic. However, he lacks the necessary mojo to do anything devastating. It’s just enough that he can protect himself adequately against a low-level magical attack. Besides this he has his military training, he underwent basic training in Dallas, Texas, followed by survival techniques at West Point and he also went to sniper school in London.
ITEMS:
Collin carries a forty-five Caliber Sig Sauer P228 two tone in a cross draw hip holster. When he’s in the field, he also always has some manner of edged weapon, but it varies depending on the threat. He’s more effective with his chequebook, however.
