Judging by the bloodshot nature of his eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine he has not slept for days.

He passes on several rewards to people in need. He makes a point to leave places better than he found them.

History: He was born into a rich family. His spouse left him for another, whom he beat to an almost bloody pulp. He did not win them back, but he came to a realization. To get what you want from life, you must take it. He has built up a small fortune and can afford his own way.

Motivation: He is greedy.
