Andrew Hoffman

From Dark City


Introduction
THE BOUND

Stats: 5'10, Brown Eyes, Brown Hair

Description: Andrew typically dresses for comfort rather than fashion, with a clear respect for 90s grunge. Beaten tennis shoes and jeans, band t-shirts, and an arrangement of rings and necklaces are the name of the game. Usually this is all covered by a bulky dark hoodie or leather jacket. A cloud of cigarette smoke tends to follow Andrew wherever he goes. Notably, unless covered, a dull white scar crosses the front of his neck.

Liminal Aura: People around Andrew sometimes feel their pulse flutter and falter as if death is coming for them and they have found themselves too weak to resist. Rarely, normal people receive visions of those around them as dead: old wounds reopen, their skin takes a deathly pallor, their faces locked in a soundless scream as fire flares from their eyes and mouths. One common vision is for the scar around Andrew's own neck to be reopened, head tilting off kilter, blood running down the front of the Bound... before the vision is gone and everything is normal once more.


THE GEIST

Description: The Burning Hag is a shriveled, withered, burnt form of a woman, hunched over as she wrings her hands from the shadows. In the dark, her eyes burn, flashes of a flames emitting outward from eyes and mouth. Spindly limbs and fingers move unnaturally but with a swift gait.

RP Hooks
RP HOOKS
  • Hoffman Agency: Operating out of Hell's Kitchen for ten years and running, Andrew has made a name for himself in the city as the type of PI willing to listen to any story and taking on cases that many would turn down. Rumor has it the PI specializes in victims involved in the occult and helping previous occultists that fell in too deep to adjust back to the 'real world.'
  • Dive Bar Fixture: Andrew likes to tout that there isn't a shitty bar in New York City that hasn't hosted him at least once, and most of them he can even remember!
  • Among the Dead: Andrew has been active as a Sin-Eater in New York City for over a decade. If you've been around it's likely that you've either heard of each other or had a run-in. Andrew's harsh personality doesn't always earn him friends, but competency can make strange allies.

NPC TIES

  • David Ester: David Ester serves as something of a mentor for Andrew, or has in the past. Andrew spends a fair amount of time around The Last Chapter, helping David in the day to day operations when possible while refusing payment. Andrew's normal shit-talking and icy demeanor falters around David to where he could almost be describe as pleasant.
  • Ishaan Bawa: Best frenemies, and it's not a secret. Ishaan seems to be very much Andrew's opposite in terms of, well, most everything. Andrew also shit talks Ishaan as much as possible and derides the man to his face. However, it's happened more than once that Ishaan has arrived to pull Andrew out of some dive bar when he can't walk or patched him up after someone had had enough of Andrew's smart mouth. And as much as Andrew might talk down his fellow Kindly, anyone else doing so is quick to earn Andrew's ire and immediate attention.
