Character Name: Dundee Randall Benoit
Codename: Dundee, Frequent Blackout-Man, Dumbass, ect.
Age: 19
Alignment: Neutral, but usually good.
Powers: Clever, Lucky, but when all else fails, has a steel-body slide guitar that's pretty much indestructable and a small amp hot-rodded to be heard from three counties away.
Bio: People have seen the young character strolling down the street, humming the melody to some old tune he heard. Rumors fly about where he came from. People have guessed Baton Rouge, Louisiana, St. Petersburg, Florida, Ocean City, Maryland and even Austin, Texas. Regardless, the young Swamp Rocker, despite being a rogue and a regular SOB according to the police, he's a nice guy and will do anything for his friends.
His guitar was a gift from his mentor, an old Bluesman he met when he was deep in the southern Bayou (he refuses to tell where on his mentor's behalf). Built out of spare parts from a Gibson ES-125, a cigar box and a 1935 Terraplane car. He plays it through a crude amplifier which he put together from junk he found. Preferring to play a potent blend of Bayou Rock N' Roll, he's revered by his friends, scorned by his enemies, but he could give a rat's . . . he just wants to travel. Sometimes going for hundreds of miles on a flatcar to make music.
Lately, he's been "working" with the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey circus as their mechanic, repairing the equipment and making stuff that shouldn't work on the move, work on the move.
There is one slight catch for his constant Macguyvering and travel. He's not that street smart for all his book smarts, often having to rely on people like his older brother, Arell.
Extra: He is completely DIY when it comes to his work and limelights as a voodoo practitioner when he isn't stupid. He does have very few moments of amazing intelligence.
