Super Identity and Secret Identity: Neal Caffrey, also known as James Bonds and 14 other aliases.
Alliance: Unaligned
Gender Preference: Male
Age: 34
Birthday: November 10
Personality: Neal Caffrey is a true, sophisticated gentleman with a wide range of knowledge; he is an gifted artist and speaks several foreign languages, all of them self-taught. He is the kind of man who is able to talk, lie or charm his way inside. His gift with words and his charms are crucial necessities in his line of work.
Despite this, Neal is just a man who is able to fall in love as hard as anyone, as seen with Kate Moreau. Neal is a romantic, as shown by the fact that he broke out of jail to track his girlfriend down. He doesn’t like to be seen as vulnerable, instead covering it up with a facade of cheerfulness or sometimes indifference.
Despite his history of being a criminal, Neal doesn’t like dead bodies or guns, even unloaded once. Murder is not intellectual pursuit, as he says. Despite this, he knows how the use one. Neal won’t hesitate to protect those close to him.
Appearance: Neal is a man of average height, with dark hair and bright blue eyes. He is incredibly fit, and has been before he went to jail. He has a six-pack for example. He is generally shaven clean.
Neal learned early in his career that style is everything. He usually wears vintage suits, most of them belonging to his friend’s June late husband. He
History: Neal told his handler Peter once, that his father was a cop that ‘went out in a hail of gunfire taking out a gang of bad guys’ when he was two. As with everything with Neal, it wasn’t that simple.
Neal was born to a man named James and his wife. James was a dirty cop, and arrested for the murder of a police officer when Neal was two. Neal and his mother were placed in a witness program and Neal was raised under the name of James Brooks. His mother told him his father was a hero, because that is what children want to hear about absent parents at that age.
Even as a young boy, Neal already had the habit of conning people. He once put the clock of the school back thirty minutes because he was often late, and when that didn’t work he rerouted the bus so it passed his house. That worked better, though later he forged a bus pass and was never late again.
When he was eighteen, his mother admitted that he was the son of a dirty cop. Neal ran away from home, to Townsville where he took his mother’s maiden name and his name at birth, resulting in Neal Caffrey. There he met his long-time partner Mozzie after he spots Neal conning a man of two hundred dollars.
Around this time, Neal ingested FML and started turning. Mozzie was very excited by this all, as it made conning people easier. After a while they started working on a big job; Neal landed himself in a position with a man named Vincent Adler, where he met the love of his life, Kate Moreau. Vincent Adler is the reason he wears suits.
He briefly gave up conning for Kate, but Adler was discovered a fraud and left them both without a job. Kate joined Mozzie and Neal in conning, but ran away after a while. Neal started doing big jobs, trying to get her attention but it wasn’t only her attention he was getting.
When he found Kate again, he got arrested as she helped the FBI. When Neal was near the end of his four year sentence, Kate broke up with him and he broke out. He couldn’t track Kate. Due to breaking out, another four years were added to his sentence but the man that caught him, Peter Burke, offered him a solution; he works with the FBI for four years as a consultant, with tracker, and he gets free.
In his spare time he still tried to track down Kate. When he finally found her, they tried to run away because Kate wasn’t safe in Townsville. When trying to catch the private plane, Peter found them and stopped Neal from boarding. The plane exploded with Kate in it. Neal was heartbroken and will probably never get over the whole accident.
Neal never really told anyone but Mozzie about his power, though Kate found out quickly enough. He never told Peter and tries to keep it hidden from him, aware that his partner will flip because of this secret.
Secret Identity: Neal doesn’t need a secret identity. He has always been, compared to the villains out there, just a criminal. Nowadays, he works together with the FBI as a consultant on white collar crimes. He lives in the townhouse of his friend, June, who is a rich widow. Neal also wears a tracker and can’t leave the area of said townhouse without permission from Peter.
Power: Neal can perform illusions, which helped him immensely with his heists. He can multitask, but if he gets too sidetracked the illusion may shatter.
RP Sample: “You better not bring any devilled ham sandwiches on stake-outs for the next twenty years!” Neal shouted after the car as Peter drove away. He grumbled and slipped into June’s townhouse, sneaking up the stairs so he wouldn’t wake the old lady or her granddaughter. He softly closed the door behind him, letting out a sigh of relief as he reached the safety of his room.
To his surprise, and to his relief, Mozzie wasn’t there. Then again, his partner had known about this job, this...abuse of him.
“Who knows” Mozzie had said, “maybe the Suit is right, maybe you’ll start liking the hobo life.” Neal had given a look. “Maybe not.”
Neal slipped off the dirty rags he’d been wearing for the better part of this evening, silently vowing to drop them at Peter’s. Maybe between his clean laundry, though Lizzy might murder him if he did. He slipped into the shower, letting the hot water pour down on him, washing off the dirt and grime.
Not only had he been forced to wear these rags, he had been forced to play a homeless man for this case. The man they had been after had apparently been using hobos for drugs. Not exactly a white crime, but enough to catch him. They didn’t have enough on him to send him to jail for a white crime.
The conman didn’t know how to behave as a hobo. Even when he first arrived in Townsville, he hadn’t been homeless. It had been his main argument as he tried to get out of this, to send Diana or Peter in, but they hadn’t budged.
And it had ended in guns. Of course it had ended in guns, because why not?! Luckily Peter and Diana had been planning this, when Peter hadn’t the voice in his ear during the evening, guiding him and telling him what to do.
Neal quickly dressed when he was done showering, in an old wife-beater and jogging pants. He ran a hand through his wet hair and checked.
Apparently June hadn’t been here during the day, which was good because the portrait of her and her granddaughter had been in open view. He planned for it to be a present for June’s upcoming birthday. It wouldn’t do if she’d seen it before it was finished.
Neal sighed as he collected his brushes and paints. Peter had so suddenly dragged him out of his apartment for this that he hadn’t been able to hide the portrait. He had been dragged away rather often lately, much to his dismay. How was he ever going to finish this portrait in time?
Other: I'm not sure if someone is joining as Peter Burke or Mozzie, but they are character that are kind of needed.
