IN CHARACTER;

NAME: Jack Morrison | Soldier: 76
CANON: Overwatch
CANON POINT: Post-Valkyrie
AGE: Mid-fifties.
HEIGHT: 6'1"
BUILD: ~210-220lbs, vaguely dorito-shaped, probably not as buff as he used to be but still pretty okay.

AFFECTION: you can try. he won't reciprocate and might even respond poorly, depending on what it is, who is doing it, and how they go about it
RELATIONSHIPS: emotionally unavailable, vaguely traumatized, and generally of the belief that he doesn't deserve regular people things like significant others. he's gay but is unlikely to say anything about it unless directly asked. unrequited stuff and all of the awkward that comes with it is totally cool
VIOLENCE: YES but please keep in mind that 76 is a captain america-style super soldier and is very good at punching. yes to minor/major/permanently debilitating injury, as long as we discuss it beforehand
TELEPATHY: unable to detect mental intrusions but won't take kindly to it if he does find out. If you play a telepath or empath/psychic/mind reader and need more information about what you might find in there, just let me know.

PHYSICAL INFORMATION:
76 was genetically augmented in his late teens/early twenties as part of an experimental US government “soldier enhancement program”. As a result, he has greatly increased strength, speed, agility, stamina, and durability. He’s able to perform superhuman physical feats and maintains a kind of homeostasis that helps him adapt quickly to harsh environments. He can take physical punishment beyond what can be withstood by a normal human, and bounces back from injury faster with an accelerated healing factor. However, his enhancements have been shown to falter under the influence of a debilitating biological agent, and generally speaking it’s implied that he’s become less able with age.

Still, he has advanced military, arms, and special/covert ops training, with a wide range of experience in various martial arts styles and weaponry, making him an extremely skilled hand-to-hand combatant. In combination with his genetically enhanced physiology, this makes him a force to be reckoned with in a one-on-one (or five-on-one) fight. He’s described in-universe by people who got on the wrong end of his fists and gun as “[…] a professional. Confident. Surgical”. His weapon of choice is an assault rifle tailored to graduates of the SEP, and he’s a practiced marksman even without his auto-targeting tactical visor.

MENTAL INFORMATION:
War is hell. 76 has PTSD, bad coping mechanisms, and betrayal-related trauma. He's an expert compartmentalizer, but his goal-driven mindset has become self-destructive paranoia and obsession. Tries very, very hard to dissociate from the man he used to be and the ideals he once championed. Fighting is the only thing he feels he can do.

OPT OUT;

UNWANTED SCENARIOS:
No dub/noncon, but otherwise I'm pretty okay with most things. Just ask if you're unsure!

ADDITIONAL PERMISSIONS:
He punches real hard, so just let me know if you plan on picking a fight with him. If for any reason you'd rather opt out from interacting with him entirely, please let me know on my HMD.
