~*~ ~*~ ~*~
Mannerisms/Quirks/Habits:
*Drinks when he's stumped on a case (usually to the point of doing something stupid)
*Clicking his tongue when he's bored/being impatient
Personality Description:
Abraham is a dark man at heart, because he has seen true darkness. This murderer that he is chasing has drained a lot of his empathy for people going down the wrong road so he teaches with a huge amount of tough love. He doesn't take whining, or going the wrong way very lightly. Whether it's drugs, violence, or whoring yourself out for money. He is quick to arrest anyone, no questions asked. Not because of the job, but because the more time that goes by that he misses this murderer, the more desperate he becomes.
That being said, whenever he makes a big break or just has something good happen in his life he does enjoy going out and partying with whoever he knows in the neighborhood. Whenever he goes home alone, he tends to dwell on his wife and needs to use booze, or something else to put himself to sleep. Therefore, if he can help it, he tries not to go home alone often.
Self image:He sees himself as a very successful man, although there is a lot of self-pity inside of him as well about not being there for his wife.
Likes:Blondes, scotch, his guns, catching the bad guy, working off excess stress by working out or ... other means, the internet (it's addicting!)
Dislikes:Murderers (duh), not finding the clues he needs, being alone, meetings (they waste time), drugs (Illegal ones)
Hopes:
*To find who killed his wife and give him justice... or kill him
*To find another person he can love
*To have a family to go home to
Fears:
*Being killed by the same killer
*Never finding that killer
*Dying alone
Strengths:
*Great work ethic
*Will never quite
*Never misses when he takes a shot with his gun (well he does, but he's well trained)
*Good at interrogation
*Can cook....
Weaknesses:
*His past/wife
*Too much scotch
*A woman who can flirt well
*All your human born weaknesses apply as well
*Knows very little about the supernatural world
Secrets:Feels more guilty about cheating on his wife than he does about her death... since he never made up for that.
Special Abilities/Talents:
He's very good at reading people, and using a firearm. What you would expect from a high ranking detective.

Physical Description: The man makes sure to keep himself in as good of physical condition as he possibly can. The job sort of demands that he doesn't let himself go, so his mornings tend to consist of at least 30 minutes of a workout to keep everything loose, and ready to go for the long day. To do this, he usually doesn't worry about shaving often, just keeping it long enough around his face to be respectable, but never going full-on babyface. He doesn't really like how he looks cleanly shaven, so doesn't do it often.
His manner of dress tends to be both extremes of professional, and comfortable. When he's on duty he will be straight up suit and tie, and look the part of a detective. Away from the job, he tends to shed that layer and only want something cool, and comfortable adorned over his body. He doesn't mix and match the two styles, so when you see him you either get one or the other.
Height:6'1"
Weight:198 lbs
Hair Colour:Dark brown
Hair Style:A little messy, but kept short so it is only noticeable from close.

Scars:
He has been shot once, a scar that lines the right side of his ribcage. No tattoos though.Tattoos/Markings:N/A.
Piercings:N/A.
Style of Dress:While he's on the job, it's strictly professional, although he doesn't wear the tie often but he will wear a suit. During his free time, it's much more casual with only a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. The job is a big part of him, but he doesn't take his work him often. He knows that it only leads to more stress, and more bad times if he does.
Personal Belongings:His wallet with a picture of his wife and himself together, and a flask for those 'harder' times.
Weaponry:Standard issue pistol, and a tazer
