Extras:
* He is an objectivist. He believes things are either good or evil and that evil should be violently punished.
*he is resourceful, ruthless and in excellent physical condition, as well as a talented investigator, infiltrator, and fighter. He is exceptionally skilled at using otherwise harmless objects as improvised weapons.
*QnA has been described as "tactically unpredictable" and has a creative flair for the dramatic to enhance his interrogations such as popping out of places you would never expect a person to be.
*he keeps a journal with him at all times to write down his thoughts, clues, and leads in.
*I got the mask from a scientist friend I grew up with. he originally designed it as an adhesive bandage but it didn't have help the healing process. he gave up that thought but told me I could use it to keep my identity a secret. The mask bonds to my face when it reacts with a special gas I carry in my belt buckle. It is taken off the same way. It is impossible to take it off me without the gas.


Mojito: Ok so youre not from here? Youre just passing thorugh?
Detective Mortalis: I live there now.
Mojito: Okies
Detective Mortalis: this has become his home base since he started looking for his wifes killer.
Mojito: Okies. So you're originally from St. Louis
Detective Mortalis: yes.
Detective Mortalis: St. Louis Missouri.
Detective Mortalis: not illinoise.
Mojito: Lived there I assume, joined the force, wife got murdered, went a little nuts and hell bent on finding her killer, 3 years later youve tracked down the killer to Constance *state unknown I would assume Missouri* After living there for a year your trail has gone cold and Constance grows worse by the day giving you plenty to do.

Constance, WA On the coast.
Filled with gray days, haze, rain.
Sunny days are rare.
A rapidly growing population paired with the lack of people willing to join the force (they mostly move there for the easy fishing industry and cheap mortgages) and corrupt police officers has sent Constance's crime rate sky high.
Constance has now become the perfect home for corruption, hide outs, and its ports make it perfect for all kinds of smuggling.

Where do you live? An apartment in the slums? Or are you like Bruce Wayne with pent houses and such? I have an apartment in the slums. I keep it with the money I get from a few private investigating jobs on the side.


I assume you do all your own lab work. Do you have a friend in the field thats readily on hand (within city limits)? Do you have your own lab? OR do you break in to the city's police force lab?
I have a nice laptop with a webcam and scanner. I have a scientist friend in St. Louis who I contact if I need help. He has given me basic chemistry and medical equipment but I’m not very good with it. He can usually help me from where he is by telling me what to do. but I sometimes need to send him samples which can take a day or two with overnight shipping. He has come down to help me once or twice.

Do you have a day job? What is it? Go into slight detail about what you do when the mask is off. Mainly cause I'll be shifting point of views from you, to me, to onlookers. I am basicly the same person with or without the mask. The only difference is that I wear the mask when I am going to do something illegal like breaking an entering or beating up a villan. On the side I do basic private investigation work, I do of course have a police scanner in my apartment. I am very good with computers though and can hack anything I need too.

You see a lady get mugged while hiding in the shadows, do you help her? What do you do with the guy that mugged her? Kill him in the alley ways? Or turn him in to the corrupt police?
Beat him to a pulp and leave him in the alley. I only kill killers but he will be severely punished.

You already know how corrupt the police force is, is there still someone you trust on it?
I trust the Sheriff to a point, I know he is good but look down on him because I know he worries more about being reelected than getting to the truth. So I have to watch whatch I tell him.

Does QnA feel hopeless, like he can never do enough in this city? That the revolving door of justice spins too fast? He knows he can’t save the , he doesn’t even try. He just wants to save the part he comes in contact with. He believes if everyone did what he does the world wouldn’t need saving. He does feel hopeless a lot. This is why he drinking is the only way he can get to sleep.


What evidence does he have about his wife's killer? What leads him to believe that after a year the killer is still in Constance? I have tracked the organization the person worked for to this city. I am waiting for them to strike again so I can pick up the trail. I have nothing else to go on.


He's a strong guy, not super hero strong just freakishly strong, I compare him to a Mike Meyers in Halloween. But does he have a lot of gizmo's? Please list your arsenal in great detail. I know thats a pain but the more I know of what he uses and what he can get his hands on the better. And please let me know what you always carry with you. And where it is on your person.
I specialize in using otherwise harmless objects as improvised weapons. Just whatever is laying around.
my journal and pencil
I have a few small thieves tools such as lockpicks
I always carry around duckt tape.
My fists

The police don't like you. Just thought I would let you know that. You point out all the flaws in their system and they just don't care for it. With just about everything in town being run by a mob or shadey business person they just don't like you in the city. There are many a bounty on your head. Under the table of course. So the papers tend to lie about your actions. But a few underground newspapers think you are a new hope for the city. Would you befriend any of these writers? Help them? Go to them to find sources of certain things? Or ignore everything altogether?
I would definitely help this paper and pick a writer I thought was worthy.
I am very right wing so Its probably a right wing viewed paper.
I’d definitely go to him for the down low.

Does knowing that some people believe in you, and that you're doing good matter to you? How so?
It is always good to know you are making a difference. Not much more than that though.

Do you have a calling card? Like if you decided to turn a man into the police how would they know it was you that did it?
Yes. My calling card is an actual business card. One side is completely white, the other side completely black.

How does the population of Constance know your name? I was so named for the nightly interrogations of the criminals I encounter.
