Description: He is an average looking eastern male in his early mid-life. He wears professional attire. His auburn hair is thinning but still full. Judging by the bloodshot nature of his eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine he has not slept for days.

Personality: In the realm of puns, he cannot help himself. He feels obliged to make them. His respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to him, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, he tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in his reactions to snap at those who irritate him, Lance is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: His father raised him in a mountain cabin. Over the years he perfected his riding and shooting skills. He bought a glaive and has really upped his game hunting, due to his understanding of decoy and ambush.

Motivation: To get a good night's sleep.
