Basics
Name: Jayne Cobb
Age: 64
Build(slim, muscular, heavy set, etc…): muscular
Hair: Brown
Eye color: Blue
Height: 6’4
Skin Tone: Light/medium
Personal
Personality
He’s a not-so-typical mercenary. He does certainly have a head on his shoulders; otherwise he’d be long dead by now, but he doesn’t always act like it, and he has an…odd sense of humor. Like your typical mercenary, it’s probably a good idea to never turn your back on him, and hope that you still hold the best offer. Deep, deep, down (so deep that he isn’t even fully aware of it), he does care about more than just himself. Even though he cares, he is so detached from his own feelings that in all likelihood he still wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice a ‘friend.’ He seems to be particularly bonded to Haven Tam, and he doesn’t like the idea of not being around to protect her.
Background
Jayne did not fight for either side in the Unification war. He first ran into Mal, his gang was trying to steal from him, but like any good mercenary, he switched sides when Malcolm offered him a better deal. In general, he has been pretty loyal as mercenaries go. However, he had always seen Simon and River as a threat, and he did attempt to turn them in to the Alliance. It has been a sore spot between him and Mal ever since. After Miranda, life changed considerably following the marriage of Kaylee and Simon, and then the introduction of children into their lives.
Career/Occupation: Mercenary/ “Public Relations”
Alliance or Browncoat or Niether: Browncoat
Talents/Special Abilities: He has the muscle to get out of just about any scrape. He is an excellent marksman and has plenty of weapons for any occasion.
Likes: Guns, money, women, and shooting things.
Dislikes: Reavers, unemployment, and underemployment
Other(normal clothes, weapons, etc…) Usually seen wearing pretty basic clothes, earth tones mostly: a t-shirt, cargo pants, and boots, with a firearm of some kind as a permanent accessory.
Code: Ballad
RP Sample: (5 sentences at least)
His fingertips over the cold steel of the barrel. He breathed on the marks his fingers left behind, took a soft cloth out of his front pocket and gently buffed away the imperfection. The worn grip felt familiar as his hand wrapped around the weapon. He turned it over on in the light, inspecting his handiwork as he reach into his left front pocket and pulled out a handful of shells. With all the care in the world he loaded each shell into the LeMat revolver and spun the cylinder. Simon was sitting with his back towards him. There was a soft click as he pulled back on the hammer and pointed the gun toward the back of the doctor's head. He chuckled a little to himself and returned the hammer to the safe position.
