Name: Lee Markus
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Height: 5"10'
Occupation:
Scientist: Experiment injection and veterinarian.
Personality: Lee usually seems indifferent in his occupation as a scientist, injecting the experiments and so on seems like an everyday, non exciting thing for him. But despite this facade he does worry deeply about what he's doing and often late at night will lie on his cheap, uncomfortable bed of his room in the USASI lab and wonder if what he is doing is wrong, if he's really helping these people at all. He's quite a worrier when it comes to the safety of others especially if he feels he's the one threatening it. But aside from this Lee is a very enthusiastic person when it comes to science and animals, he's got a keen hand and mind and is quite a knowledgeable chap. But because of a caring streak that is noticably dashed into his personality, it's usually noted and taken well by experiments. Because of his love of animals, and also his wanting to care for those humans suffering within USASI's grips, he likes to act decently towards them. Pampering their animal affections yet talking to them and interacting. After several months finding a good way to communicate and get on well, this often recieved well and often it bemuses other scientists to how Lee gets the experiments to co operate so well, usually doing so by offering them no sedation or ropes with their co operation in return.
He'd a very subtle, gentle person, often the quiet one, the non threatening and serious one who often treads lightly with his work, not liking to take risks without proper thought or if these risks are too high. He is partly a perfectionist, liking everything he does to be to a certain standard, if it doesn't reach his liking, he'll redo it, making people pondering if it's a compulsion of sorts.
He is very rarely seeking thrills or excitement, he's the quite content man who would be happy with a black coffee and a book and curl up on the sofa. Coffee usually ending up as his comfort or energizer.
He may not seem it, from his supposedly geeky way of life Lee is mostly anything but, he does have his nerdy moments where he can pull needed information from his noggin at the drop of a hat but otherwise he's a good laugh, he has his sarcastic wit, and enjoys a good joke and company as his job usually keeps him solitary, but usually, he doesn't mind this. He doesn't naturally crave company, but enjoys it every so often and his out going ways are quite understated.
He has a temper and a sharp tongue but this side is very ever rarely seen, he's dynamite with a very very long fuse and usually all you'll see is irritation and impatience and when annoyed develops that scary 'teacher tone' of voice, where you scurry to do their bidding, knowing you've pushed your luck far enough. This side is usually shown when he's been put under a lot of stress or is tired, or simply hasn't had his coffee where it's duly needed. He's not particularly insulting when he has a go at someone, his sharp tongue is more profound at having a go at someone, instead of insulting them and starting fights. In all, he's a rather authoritative figure when he's pushed to the end of his tether.
On to his social life, despite not having many relationships it doesn't mean he's inexperienced, because of his admirable looks he has had several girlfriends in the past and therefore knows to keep you're head clear and yourself calm and act natural, as corny as it sounded it worked. He's a natural nice guy with the odd personality perks, but he's never really had a serious relationship that has lasted very long. He's not the smooth talking, girl charming wiz and he always seems to target the bad ones which either do him no good, seem the complete opposite of him, or may seem to one day kill him. (Guess who xD). But none the less he does his best to try and banish any insecurities and tries to be professional with a relationship like he's professional with his work, in short. He's never really sure how to charm the girl he's after.
Build: Lee has quite a sturdy build, a fit body he's a light weight and in good health. He isn't a fighter however and without a weapon he'd be pretty much helpless although landing a few punches wouldn't be too hard for him. He's more a strategist than an out way fighter.
Appearance: Lee's body type is an impressive one, seeing as he works more behind the scenes for USASI. But like most USASI staff he has a periods of time booked into the gym, in case he should be called to aid in a experiment retrieval or something similar. So because of this, Lee has a fairly well built body. It’s not so noticeably curved with muscle, having quite a slender body. His shoulders are squared yet rounded off, his torso is neatly carved, with a certain harder parts of muscle, mostly in his stomach and abdominal area but there is no real definition to these’s areas so his stomach is smooth and flat, which in itself is impressive.
His skin is quite pale, having had quite a nice tan from his sunny home in Ireland during his time with USASI as it has kept him in doors mostly his tan has slowly but surely faded, leaving a soft, even tone on his skin, the slightest hint of colour but over all still appearing quite pale.
Lee has a rather oval face with softly curving jaws which round off into a slightly pointy chin, his nose however slopes rather nicely to a small rounded tip and upturns slightly although almost barely and seems to add more originality to his face. His eyes are slanted every so slightly and are quite long, giving him a curious appearance, subtle and content, they‘re a deep brown which easily catch the light and have quite dark edges making them stand out, although not unusually so. One of the more noticeable features are his natural, pale, pouty lips, which when set with his eyes, and delicately sculptured nose, it does make the male rather attractive. However, from what neat, sensible hairstyle you’d expect from someone who works professionally, Lee’s hair sets him out. Pretty much picture a neat mop of black hair. It doesn’t stick up at all on it’s own so very rarely looks messy rather than ruffled as the semi long bangs fall across his forehead and slightly over his eyes, falling wherever they please in neat, spiked locks. His fringe falls slightly over his right eye although occasionally moves so he can see, however his hair parts so no hair lies over his left eye, letting it see clearly. His hair falls around his ears and the back of his neck, but otherwise isn’t very long and is rather neatly cut.
When at work, Lee is in the proper uniform, he wears formal work shirts, button ups and either dark grey or black trousers usually pressed and then their’s the freshly cleaned white lab coat with his larger than usual pockets and shined black shoes in tow and is usually always seen in a well presented state.
He may seem average, but he usually does deserve a second glance.
History/past: Pretty simple and nothing very horrendous. His mother was a vet and his father a scientist, Lee as a young boy with his mother and father grew up in Ireland in a small town of Laois with their German shepherd puppy Diesel.
Living in a small house his mum was the head surgeon at the local veterinary hospital and his father taught and lectured at the local university of science. In all, Lee had a pretty educational and pressured upbringing to succeed in the ways his parents had.
Luckily however Lee had a natural ability for both science, including chemistry and biology and a little knowledge of physics which he needed to succeed in science and from helping his mum at the practice on quiet days was able to learn the vital things and not so vital like caring for wounded animals, learning their temperament and such.
Lee never knew which one he'd wanted to be but however when in university with his impressive test scores he was approached by USASI officials and offered a job which included vet and scientist skills to which he agreed without a second thought. This led to study these certain areas for five years before he could finally get the job he desired even if it included the possibility he was moving around a lot wherever the job took him. Despite these issues as soon as Lee finished his course at university for veterinary practise and sciences like his parents he was ready to join the USASI staff. Although he hadn't been really informed on what this job required. When he saw was this job entailed he was horrified and wanted out! But that was impossible he had to serve at least five to ten years with USASI before he could get out and was sworn to secrecy of it, it was classified information after all. So Lee spends his time making life for the caged experiments as easy and comfortable as possible as well as aiding the escaped experiments although not too far to get himself fired and in deep trouble.
