"You are defined not just by the somethings you do, but also the nothings. So what are you going to do: A good something that will put an end to the bad people doing the bad somethings and make some things better, or do nothing which is a something that allows bad people to do bad somethings?"
-Johnny on moral values
Appearance[]
For his physical appearance, he is a Caucasian male who looks to be in his thirties. He has short ruffled brown hair and hazel eyes. He stands at almost six feet in height with a broad shoulders and an average build. Johnny always seems to be wearing some sort of smile on his face.
For apparel, he wears a plaid navy blue and red button down polo covered by a brown leather jacket. He also wears clean blue jeans with brand new black snake skin boots. He completes his cowboy out fit with a brown ten gallon and a pistol holster carrying a shining hand cannon revolver with beautiful gold patterns that seem to flow with the revolver's shape.
Personality[]
Johnny is the obvious stereotypical southerner when it comes to his accent and behavior. He is extremely laid back, mostly seen playing his guitar or walking with the six string acoustic on his back while whistling a country tune. Whenever he plays that guitar, life seems clear for a while to those around him as he becomes one with the songs he plays.
He always seems to have a smile on his face, and this is topped off with a positive attitude and outlook on life. He only sees the best in people. He hopes to help others see the good in themselves so they may find a meaning to life that lacks evil intentions. He'll keep persuading people until he is downright rejected. The simple "no thanks," " go away," or "I don't need your advice" will not send him packing, though. You have to truly show you are not and will not be taking his advice any time soon. This causes him to frown as he walks away with his hat covering his eyes.
History[]
Absolutely nothing is known of Johnny's origins except that he was born in the southern part of Saari. His first appearance to everyone was as a rancher who owned several acres of cows and bulls. Whenever he was not feeding or otherwise tending to the animals, he sat in a chair on his cabin's porch, playing his lovely acoustic guitar. People who would do business with him and travelers would stop and listen to his tunes. He never paid them any attention though. He was too infatuated with his music.
This all changed when a young southern boy came to Johnny with his hat in his hands out of humility. The boy asked for help with his life after seeing how happy Johnny seemed to be with his life. They talked until the sun set, where the boy, now content, tipped his hat and waved goodbye.
After this, the man known as Johnny vanished. He was never seen until decades later as a traveler in the city of Jericho. He looked exactly the same: a guitar was with him at all times, he looked to have not aged a day, his clothes were well kept, and he still had that smile on his face. He now stops to speak with those he sees that need his advice, whether it be man or mobian who needs it.
When someone went back to the ranch after Johnny's reappearance, there was no trace of its existence, leaving his presence giving the older citizens a feeling of déjà vu.
Skills and Special Abilities[]
Johnny is the perfect speaker. He never stutters and seems to have the perfect combination of letters and words to convey a greater meaning. He can also play guitar really well, from fast paced foot tappers to slow and somber songs.
On a side note, when he reappeared, he looked to have not aged a year, so his actual age is unknown. It is also unknown how he has accomplished this.
Given that he carries a hand cannon with him, it is implied he knows how to use it, although he has never been seen wielding it and it could be purely cosmetic.
Trivia[]
- He is named after a song featured in the videogame Fallout: New Vegas.
- His concept was inspired by several characters in gaming, such as Team Fortress 2's Engineer, the Lutece twins in BioShock Infinite, and the Sheriff Simms in Fallout 3.
