Obviously connected to other members of the police department.<br/><strong>Skills ||</strong>Proficient in the use of spears, shields, and swords in combat. Can also apply an unarmed beatdown if needed. Something of an accomplished cook.<br/><br/><strong>Personality ||</strong>Dean is at once the nicest guy you’ve met and the scariest, meanest son of a bitch to walk this earth. He swears like a sailor, even in casual situations, more so when actual action is going on. That being said, he at least attempts to keep his language clean around kids. He is possessed with a powerful sense of duty, and has elected to make that duty the protection of the innocent of New Republic City. In a crisis situation, he is the first to leap to the defense of others, preferring to be the one taking blows instead of anyone else.<br/><strong>Background ||</strong>Sometime after the rise of Fire Lord Zuko, the Liang family was exiled from the Fire Nation, stripped of their noble title. Harold does not know why, nor does he care to find out-it’s a memory best left forgotten. They used what little money they could gather to sail to the United Republic of Nations, eventually settling in the burgeoning Republic City. Dean’s ancestors worked hard, establishing themselves and their name in the growing city-from them, and the lessons they passed down through the family, Dean learned the importance of hard work and determination.<br/><br/>Dean’s grandfather was a respected member of the United Forces, but was killed when Dean’s father was young-his grandfather was stationed at that fated outpost that Kuvira blew away like a bothersome fly. Even with this tragedy, Dean’s father followed in his footsteps, becoming a soldier in the United Forces just like him, becoming a well respected officer within the army. From this, Dean learned to never surrender to the tragedies of life that all must face.<br/><br/>Dean himself, however, has chosen a different path-the path of the protector, not of the warrior. He claims the life of a police officer is more exciting than that of a soldier (which he says is a lot of hurry up and wait), but his real reasoning is because he can see the faces of the ones he protects every day, and he lives for those moments-for the smiles of the people. He has also chosen to use a completely different name, wishing to forge his own path and not be compared to his grandfather and father. It works for the most part, save for the fact that some members of the police force actually DO know Dean’s ancestors-but out of respect, they don’t mention them.<br/><br/>Dean himself is well known among the police force, sometimes being referred to as “Mr. Shield” for his behavior and demeanor.<br/><strong>Appearance ||</strong>For starters, he doesn’t have nearly the kind of armor the picture has. He does, however, have the facial hair. He has several scars-you don’t play protector without getting hit a few dozen times. He is well built thanks to all the physical exercise he gets.<br/><br/><strong>Pet ||</strong>None<br/><strong>Hobbies ||</strong>Enjoys cooking.<br/>Enjoying taking walks around the city-Avatar Park is his favorite spot<br/>Likes to gamble on pro-bending matches (usually ‘friendly’ bets, like a beer or a burger)<br/><br/><br/><strong>O/O ||</strong>Enjoys the company of beautiful women, certainly, and is fairly open. A lady that likes to drink is a definite plus in his book. Has not yet encountered anything he’d say no to (so PM me if you’re going to do anything ‘out there’)<br/><strong>Theme Song ||</strong>Die to Declare-ASGORE remix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vj2mUksJRHg)[/size]
