Adair Simpkin
Contents
Appearance
Adair is big. He is 6foot - 6inches tall and weighs over 325 pounds. The product of hardy colonial breeding and his youth spent in the coal mines of Western Kentucky.
Behavior
Adair grew up watching the boys and men around him die of black-lung, explosions and cave-ins. So he grew up with a live fast and devil take the hindmost attitude. His reasoning was that if you don't take risks, you cannot stay ahead of the looming disaster, whatever that might be. His choice to fight in the Great War was a direct application of that theory. While Adair did want to see something new and go someplace more interesting, he also figured that if he was going to die violently, he wanted to chose the place if not the time. His devil-may-care attitude is loosely kept in check by his strict upbringing and the brutal discipline of the U.S. Army wherein he trained.
