Nine Facts: Abram Ramsay

1. In the previous time when he was alive, Abraham Killford was quite the ladies man when he was young. But after some time, all that screwing around didn't amount to anything. He ended up growing old and single.

2. Abraham Killford had terminal lung cancer because of his smoking habit. Since he was already dying and had nothing to lose, he decided to take on one big, super-risky job; busting a mafia group in a drug case. He had hoped to solve it and be remembered for it when he dies. Shit happened instead; he got caught and was shot dead, execution-style.

3. Abram Ramsay is really good at math. This is not just on to mental calculation, but also to more complex sorts of equations. He does not realize this yet, but he has made use of this skill in his first big job. Maybe he was a mathematician in one of his past lives.

4. Because of his unsociable personality, one could say that Abram had no friends at all. This is not entirely true, as he was often seen in the company of Simone Travers. But everyone knows it's for work-related reasons.

5. There have been rumours of him being seen once in the Pale Rider, an Enforcer-owned nightclub, talking to Mortimer Graves. Obviously, Mortimer could not have been trying to recruit Abram, since he's considerably new. But no one dares to raise the question to Abram to satisfy their curiousity.

6. When not in his workaholic tendencies, Abram loves to walk far out of the city until he reaches the Expanse (the black sea that separates the Afterrealm cities). It gives him the feeling that there is nothing but him and the world. It's much comfortable to be alone in a wide area than to be alone in a crowd of people.

7. Abram's living quarters is modest and messy. He'd just toss his stuff around the place; the only things not simply tossed around are his work material. It's not like he has visitors, so why bother cleaning up?

8. Abram loves his coffee black. At one point, his coffee got mixed up with another person who can't stand it. Upon drinking the wrong coffee with had a lot of creamer, Abram exclaimed, "GAH! Whose milk-ridden caffeine is THIS?". Needless to say, the other person was not happy that such a fact was made LOUD and public. Abram never forgot him; he made it a point to avoid the person where he can. Luckily, such occasions are not very often either.

9. Yeah, it's been said before; Abram is a chain smoker. He does know when and when not to smoke though. If he's on a dangerous job, he would not smoke until it's confirmed the area is safe. And if he's in a meeting of sorts, he will not light a cigarette unless it's clear that the others are okay with it. But when he's feeling tense of uneasy, he'd feel more relaxed after breathing in the tobacco. It's all in his head, really.
Doing this because ~greenfrostfire sorta tagged me earlier. As I doing the drafts for his first story, this old man is starting to grow on me. So I did this thing. :P

Uuugh, so sleepy. Me go sleepey first.

Mortimer Graves and Simone Travers (mention of them) belong to :iconmangakawa:

I think I have an idea who Mister "Won't-Drink-Coffee-Black" is. I think I also have an idea how the incident went down. XD
