Prologue - Jamie Fisher
James Marsters + Male + he/him — have you seen {Jameson 'Jamie' Fisher}, the {32} year old {human} in the pocono mountains? they work as {a supernatural investigator/waiter}. they’re known to be {impulsive & gullible}, but also {determined & candid}.
- Despite the ‘bad boy’ look he’s got going on, Jamie’s a huge softie. He’s fascinated by the supernatural and he’s basically an encyclopedia of lore from around the world. Get him talking about ghosts or demons and he won’t stop until he’s run out of things to say.
- He moved to East Stroudsburg because of the lore surrounding the place, he felt it was his best chance at legitimate proof that the things that go bump in the night truly exist. Unfortunately, investigating the supernatural doesn’t pay all that well so he supplements his income by working as a waiter at a chain restaurant and catsitting for his neighbor whenever the old man goes out of town (which is often)
- He hates his waiting job - not because he doesn’t like people or because he’s bad at it, but because he doesn’t like the uniform. He thinks it makes him look stupid and as someone who’s super self-conscious in the first place, that is no good.
- When it comes to searching for proof, Jamie makes impulsive decisions. He’ll go to great lengths to get where he thinks he needs to be even if those lengths are illegal or dangerous for a breakable human like himself. He’s clumsy, too, which means he’s no stranger to getting banged up on his investigations - especially when he decides to wander into the woods or old rickety houses one wrong move away from crumbling. At this point, he’s kind of an expert at self-treatment and he’s got a very well stocked first aid kit at home.
- Jameson’s gullible, but that’s only because he wants to believe. If you were to tell him that you witnessed a supernatural force at play, he’d take you at your word and it’s gotten him into a bit of trouble in the past. Especially when he was a kid. Teenagers are nasty, they find a weakness and exploit it. it just so happened that Jamie’s belief/faith was really easy to exploit and still is. (Though he’s gotten a bit more skeptical with age.)
- Jamie’s got a pet Quaker Parakeet named Gotcha because it’s one of the words the little birdy says most frequently. Gotcha can get kind of annoying, but Jamie’s used to it so he doesn’t really notice anymore.
- He’s from Canada but moved to the US with his parents when he was fifteen. He’s lived in many a city, but he never stays for long. (Longest he’s been in one place was Sante Fe, New Mexico - 15-19 years old)
- His interests aside from the supernatural include: classic horror movies, sci-fi, poetry, classic rock, alternative rock, and birds.
- While he’s generally a decent and passive person, he won’t hesitate to throw a punch or two if need be.
