1. The Padre is male
2. At a hair under six feet tall, Padre would have been imposing, about a hundred and
fifty years ago. Now he's really just average. He looks a little chubby, but he's
really just build solidly.
3. He wears his ash blonde hair short, with a center part. His eyes are green and his
skin tone is on the pale side of caucasian.
4. Most of the time, you'll see Padre wearing his gear, which means a jumpsuit. When
he's off duty, he wears black slacks and a black short sleeved shirt, though as he
isn't really an ordained priest, he doesn't wear a clerical collar. He is alarmingly
clean cut compared to the rest of his comrades.
5. He was born in Boston, in the UCAS, and has spent most of his life in UCAS cities
before taking this job in special deliveries.
6. April 8th, 2040 is his birthday. He's 32 years old.
7. The youngest of six sons, his parents were glad when he joined the seminary. They were
less glad when he decided to leave the seminary after he'd discovered, and been trained
in the use, of his magical gifts.
8. He has not started a family, nor will he until he's ready to settle down. Running in
the shadows and raising children do not mix.
9. His education consisted of corporate high school, followed by a few years at St. Francis
Theothaumaturgical College - incomplete.
10.Ever since he dropped out of the seminary, he's worked odd jobs where his magical skills
could be put to profitable use. So in a sense, he's always been in the shadows.
11.The Padre is a firm believer in our lord Jesus Christ, and that he gave his life that
we may all live forever in heaven. He also believes that his magic is a gift from god,
and that any spirits he encounters are either angels or demons, and he deals with them
appropriately.
12.His moral code is based on the bible, but a very loose and liberal interpretation of it.
He's a big fan of the idea of good works being what God wants you to do while on this
earth, he's just a bit open to what that means in the long run.
13.Right now, the Padre is adrift. He knows that the lord wants him to work against demons
and the unholy on earth, but he's not sure how best to go about that.
14.He fell into running the shadows, and finds that he likes working with out and out
sinners, and helping to guide them.
15.Boisterous, loud and argumentative can best be used to describe his personality. He is
not the contemplative type at all.
16.He's a people person, and he loves all types. He's easy to talk to, and a good listener.
17.He's realistic enough to know that sometimes running in the shadows means killing, but
he's never harmed a child, he's never done overt wet work, nor would he want to.
18.He hates demons - essentially any spirit he didn't summon himself. He has a particular
issue with beast spirits, whom he sees as manifestations of Lucifer himself.
19.He loves Irish whiskey, kids, and telling stories.
20.Though his papers say his name is "Father Tim Calloway" - his real name is David
Callahan, but everyone just calls him Padre.
21.He was a seminary student at St. Francis.
22.He left the seminary over disagreements over doctrines of faith with the establishment.
23.Shadowrunning is just an umbrella category for the various things he'd done to keep body
and soul together in the past.
24.Padre met Father Michael while he was on R&R after a run once. He spent the entire
evening debating issues of faith with the good father, and since then they get together
regularly to wrangle with similar issues. They enjoy one another's company, and have
a common ground in Theurgy.
25.Padre does have a SIN, but it just seems to disappear from the map after seminary. He
acquired a good fake right thereafter and rarely uses his own unless he's in deep trouble.
26.He is a full-time shadowrunner.
27.He most loves people to whom he can minister in his own odd way.
28.He least loves people who use their faith to be cruel or exclusive of others.
29.He respects the clergy, believe it or not.
30.He fears dragons, for they are powerful and not of this world. He lives in terror of
the day he is forced to destroy one himself.
31.His favorite color is red. Like the red stone -a ruby maybe, he's never checked - in his
grandfather's ring that he wears and has made a focus.
32.His favorite food and drink are Irish Whiskey and Clam Chowder. Memories of home.
33.He would like to one day visit Italy, specifically Vatican City.
34.He is loyal to his friends and co-workers. He's not the duplicitous type.
35.The Padre plays old fashioned games in AR on his commlink on the Matrix. He's a huge
fan of AR Table Tennis.
36.He's not a fan of performing regular vehicle maintenance. He doesn't understand it, and
all he can be is a mindless grunt doing what he's told to do.
37.He is most annoyed by his own failings, and his failure to live up to a higher standard.
38.He's never gone out for art, but likes most music.
39.His goals include winning an argument with Father Michael, defeating a dragon, and maybe
finishing his divinity degree.
40.His best quality is his sense of humor.
41.His worst is his surety in his take on angels and demons. It can make him act rashly.
42.The most important thing he's ever done is when he left school, standing by his own
principles.
43.He's a professed Catholic, but his beliefs tend to differ wildly from the standard.
44.His most treasured possession is his grandfather's ring, but he holds his rosary
and cross highly as well.
45.He dreams he's back in school, being argumentative and losing. He dreams that he's in
line to get into heaven, and still cracking wise. And he dreams that he's forgotten
something important right after leaving on a job.
46.He rarely sees his family, and they never see him. He pops by from time to time to check
on them from a distance.
47.They still live in Boston, though his parents are retired, his brothers are in various
business jobs.
48.Most of his skills he learned in seminary, and in catholic school before that. If
you think you can get through catholic school without some unarmed combat, you're nuts.
49.He believes in making his own luck, so has no charms.
50.He loves all music, though he can't make any of his own. No talent.
