[PTabbedContent][PTab=GENERAL INFORMATION] CHARACTER INFO: NAME: Timothy Dugan ALIAS: Dum Dum AGE: 91 OCCUPATION: SHIELD Agent MEMBER GROUP: SHIELD POWERS AND ABILITIES: Abnormal youth/lifespan PLAYBY: Neal McDonough OOC INFO: PLAYER NAME: Sara AGE: 22 GENDER: female TIMEZONE: Central Standard Time OTHER CHARACTERS: Pepper Potts [/PTab][PTab=PERSONNEL ASSESSMENT] APPEARANCE Standing at 6 foot 2 Dugan is not an easy man to miss. He easily towers over those around him. Then, on top of that, add the red hair, large moustache, and his ever present bowler hat and it’s amazing he made a name for himself doing espionage work. Dugan is also a rather bulky man, all muscle honed from years of a ridged exercise regime. He carries himself with an air of confidence and power; secure in the knowledge of his limits and abilities. Most of the time, Dugan can be found in his uniform. However, when he wears civilian clothes they usually hark back to the era he was born in. So much has changed during his elongated lifespan, he’d like to keep some things the same; even if it’s just his sense of style. A black bowler hat tops off any outfit, and if he’s out in the field Dugan has been known to put his ranking insignia on the front of it. He’d like to say there was a reason for it, but honestly it just amuses him. PERSONALITY Loyal to a fault, when Dugan decides he’s friends with someone he will do anything for them within his power. And when it comes to those he hates, well, that same passion that drives him to help those he loves drives him to take down those who choose to stand against him. He’s a driven man and hates to see projects left unfinished. No matter how long it takes, he’d rather see a mission through to the end rather than give up and move on. Dugan is a happy sort and believes living life to the fullest. No matter how dire the situation is, he always manages to find a shred of humour. His laugher is loud, full bodied, and he likes to think it’s infectious. STORY THUS FAR Timothy Aloysius Cadwallader Dugan was born in Boston Massachusetts. Having a strong desire to get out and see the world Dugan joined the circus as a strong man. He enjoyed his time at the circus, but it wasn’t enough. He wanted something more. What's a man with a dubious background to do? Because really, who's going to hire a carnie? So Dugan did what any sensible man who loved both travling and a good brawl would do. He joined the Army. During his time in the army Dugan learned a variety of new skills. Skills he would never have learned if he had remained in the circus. Not to mention the fact he was able to improve upon his older skills. He became an expert marksmen with a rifle, developed phenomenal hand to hand combat skills (particularly with Judo), and picked up a variety other weapon’s training. He'd only been in the army for a few years before tensions in Europe began to rise, and by the time war broke out Dugan's batllion, chomping at the bit to see some action, was deployed overseas. Things went well for Dugan and his crew. They came, they saw, conqured... and then they were captured. Finding himself in HYDRA's clutches was one of the worst things Dugan could have imagined. He would have much rather have been killed then placed in the enemy's hands; but instead he found himself stuck in a cage being tormented by a little prick with a big stick who thought himself to be a big shot. Dugan couldn't wait until the tides turned. Which they would if he had anything to say about it. And he did. A man, whom he'd later learn was Stever Rogers, otherwise known as Captain America, had decided to risk himself in order to rescue his childhood friend and in the course of his rescue mission he set about freeing all the soldiers who had been captured by HYDRA thoughout the course of the war. After wreaking havoc on the enemy base, Rogers invited Dugan and a few others to join a "special elite commando" which Rogers himself was going to lead. Never having been one to turn down a fight, Dugan readily agreed to fight the good fight; as long as someone paid for his drinks. Thus was the begining of the Howling Commandos. It was the Commandos who gave him the moniker “Dum Dum Dugan” though most have shortened it to simply Dum Dum. They proceeded to do as much damage to HYDRA as they possibly could. They were good at what they did, acomplishing their missions in crazy ways that probably should have killed them. However, for the most part they came out rather unscathed. Then in a truly unfortunate turn of events the Commandos lost two of their numbers; Bucky Barnes and their fearless leader. Dugan ramained with the Howling Commandos for a very long time and their out of the box way of getting things done brought them to the attention of the super secret espionage organization SHIELD. How could he turn down a career where he was presented with interesting challenges that allowed him to bash as many heads as he could handle and presented him with great new toys to play with? He had many good years working with SHIELD. His health beginning to fail him Dugan decided to retire from S.H.I.E.L.D. and stay home with his wife, a lovely young woman he met on a mission, and his kids. But fate had other plans, a faction of Hydra in a fit of retaliation murdered his wife. Wishing to catch the guys who committed this atrocity, Dugan joined S.H.I.E.L.D. again. Through his relationship with Fury, Dugan began to receive injections of the Infinity Formula. If injected yearly, Dugan would keep his youthful appearance despite being born in the early twentieth century. It’s allowed him to continue working for S.H.I.E.L.D. without having to worry about retiring anytime soon. Now days he's just been sent on mission after mission. Most recently he was sent into the Democratic Republic of Congo in order to infiltrate a Mutant slave trading ring. Being the sort of man who firmly believes that no one should be enslaved for any reason, it rankles him to pose as one of the slave traders but the end justifies the means after all. And he's been learning quite a bit about the operation that will surely help SHIELD take down this despicable group.
