~ Richard to Jacket

Background

Jacket' is the main protagonist and player character of Hotline Miami, and a side character in Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number. Over the course of the first game, he dons various animal masks and performs a number of brutal assassinations in response to cryptic messages left on his answering machine. The second game explores the causes and consequences of his massacres two years after the first game's events, with Jacket himself making brief appearances in several cutscenes.

General Information

Name: Unknown, referred to as Jacket, potentially Richard (The masks gifted to 50 Blessings Hitmen are usually named after them directly)

Origin: Hotline Miami

Sex: Male

Age: Unknown, at least mid-twenties (Given Jacket was enlisted into the military sometime before 1985, and the events of the first game takes place in 1989, this would indicate that he is at least 22-years-old in Hotline Miami, with two additional years passing by the time Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number begins)

Classification: Jacket, The Miami Maniac

Species: Human

State of Being: Regular

Occupation: US Special Forces Operative (formally), 50 Blessings Hitman (formally, unwilling), Prisoner (currently)

Status: Both Alive and Deceased (After the events of Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, nuclear war breaks out across all of America and kills off the entire cast, including Jacket. Although upon replaying the game, a sequence will began where Richard acknowledges the cast returning to relive their ultimately futile fates which strongly suggests that the events will persist so long as the characters continue their doomed paths)

Alignment: Lawful Good initially (Jacket enlisted into the military and was apart of an elite four-man special forces that fought in Hawaii against Soviet Troops. Although his initial intentions are left ambiguous, he followed orders from his colonel with good intentions), Chaotic Neutral after the death of Beard in a nuclear blast in Los Angeles (After Beard's untimely death in Los Angeles, Jacket spiraled into a crazed hatred towards Russia and joined an organization called "50 Blessings" that forced him into the role of a hitman against the Russian mafia. Although he takes pleasure in killing these individuals due to justifying his actions as a conquest for revenge, he is sickened by the idea and actions of directly killing innocent lives)

Threat Level: Metropolitan Threat (Jacket singlehandedly became a threat to the entire Russian Mafia, allowing for rival mafias to take over territory previously claimed across Miami)

Striking Strength: The attack power of the character's physical attacks/blows (in bold; add any explanations using brackets, not in bold)..

Lifting Strength: The weight the character can lift/move, usually expressed in tons. However it is optional since lifting strength generally doesn't matter in most fights (in bold).

Range: The distance the character's attacks/abilities can cover (in bold; add any explanations using brackets, not in bold).

Intelligence: The level of intelligence a character has, while normally their intelligence applies to all forms of subjects, there's many cases in fiction where this isn't the case, in these cases they can have their intelligence split into the following (in bold; add any explanations using brackets, not in bold):

Intelligence based off one's years of experience, accomplishments they've made and overall statements in regards to their intelligence.

Sometimes referred too as "street smarts", this type of intelligence is how one uses their social interactions in day to day society to their advantage. Usually characters with extremely good charisma are good examples of a socially intelligent character.

Intelligence based off scientific achievements they've made.

Mainly relevant for characters in strategy based, the intelligence of one's strategies. This can apply to combat, board games, gaming, or how they apply their strategies to general life activities.

Similar to strategic intelligence, though this mainly focuses on their combat prowess.

Different types of intelligence levels that don't apply to the previous tabbers can be made their own unique ones. Some other forms of intelligence are explained on the Intelligence page.

Explanations

This section can be used to explain the reasons for the assigned power level of a certain character more in-depth, as well as how the powers and nature of the character fundamentally work. This is particularly useful for more high-tiered characters.

Miscellaneous Feats

As there are many different kinds of feats within fiction, only the relevant feats should be noted in Attack Potency, Durability, Speed, Lifting Strength, Striking Strength, etcetera. In this section a collection of overall feats the character manages should be listed, this gives further indexing for the impressive array of things a character has done. It should also be noted that any category is fine. Showing off a characters natural skills, such as cooking, acrobatics, intelligence, etcetera that's not a direct relevant feat on the statistics area above can also be listed here. It should look like the following (Note that this is just an example and you only need the relevant categories for the character in question, along with this you can add your own tabber for a category not listed here):

Trivia

An optional addition where you can add numerous facts about a character.
