Patrick O'Connor
Nationality: American
Ethnicity: Irish
Junior, Age 17
Height & Weight
: 5'11, 155 lbs
Hair color: Red(natural)
Eye color: Green
Appearance: A fan of the zip-up hoodie/jean look You will never see Patrick wearing anything else he favors the black/gray hoodies unzipped with a gray/black t-shirt underneath with a light blue pair of jeans. His hair is down over his ears with the same length all around he wears a white bandanna folded into a rectangle to keep his hair out of his eyes. Patrick has a scar running down from the top of his right eyebrow straight down to his nose.

Personality: Patrick is a loner, though he enjoys company he will not actively seek it out due to inability to easily trust. In this regard his relations he is like the quote "slow to make friends, even slower to forget them". Through all of that though is a kind caring heart, that is not completely defended from the horrors of life.
Patrick had a deep sense of right and wrong, though now he does see in tones of gray. Now however He knows what's morally wrong and feels no qualms dishing out "justice" to those who deserve it. However in his late sophmore year early junior year he picked up the name "The angel of Death" and went on a rampage killing those who were deemed "evil" such as mobsters and the ilk.
Patrick has a great hate for gangs and bullys and will always defend the victim unless he sees it as an ironic form of justice. He is very stubborn and will not back down from a fight. He has made a personal vow never to give up unless he becomes incapacitated.
Recently, Patrick has lost the "obligation" to help those around him for moral gain. It is unlikely he will help some one to do the right thing. Grief, rage and hate for society has pushed him past caring. He has lost faith in society and humanity. Though he still has a personal code of conduct, it is not much of one. Pretty much no rape. His new rule is look out for number one and don't get close to anyone. After seeing everyone close to hime die, or so he thinks, he will not get close to anyone if he can help it. Cynical and sarcastic he gets through the days anyway he can.
Fighting styles: Krav Maga, Survival is the goal of this style not necessarily honor. Grappling skill to escape a variety of holds, Striking includes fists, feet, knees, elbows and an occasional head butt. This is a style of improvisation and any weapons available will be used (or at least considered). This style is fought in an aggressive defensive stance and is based on counters.
Brazillian Jiu Jitsu:Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting with the goal of gaining a dominant position and using joint-locks and chokeholds to force an opponent to submit. The art was based on early 20th century Kodokan Judo,[1][2] which was itself then a recently-developed system (founded in 1882), based on multiple schools (or Ryu) of Japanese Jujutsu.
It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person using leverage and proper technique can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger assailant. BJJ can be trained for self defense, sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition.[3] Sparring (commonly referred to as 'rolling') and live drilling play a major role in training, and a premium is placed on performance, especially in competition.
Strengths: Patrick's greatest Strength is in that he has a strong determination. He will never give up and never back down, fighting long past the point of reason. He specializes in grappling and counter fighting and thus is a defensive fighter.
Weaknesses:Never gives up, has trouble initiating an attack and is in turn easily countered. When caught of balance Patrick finds it hard to regain footing and thus open to additional attacks until he can regain it.
History: Patrick was raised on the streets of Boston when at the age of four witnessed the death of his parents at the hands of a gang also leaving him with his signature scar. He would have died but a gang of orphans took him in and taught him how to survive off of pickpocketing. He lived a hard but overall happy life until he was 8 when a gang of teenagers(coincidentally the same gang that Killed his parents) decided that Patrick's "gang" was encroaching on their turf. The group of ragtag orphans averaging at the age of 7 tried to tell the gang they were just trying to live, the older gang however decided to make an example of them and killed them. Luckily Patrick was able to hide in this closet while this horrid scen was taking place escaping harm. When he exited the closet he saw the full extent of the carnage. Bodies of the orphans were torn apart by knives while the misfit leader of the orphans was put on his knees and shot in the head. Patrick from then on acquired a hatred of bullys of all types. When the cops found the scene they saw Patrick on his knees crying over one of his friends bodies. A cop named Caleb quickly ushered Patrick away. When Caleb found out Patrick was an orphan he quickly took Patrick in as his own son. Over the next few years Caleb taught Patrick the style of krav Maga and brazillian jiusitsu along with self respect. Though Patrick never completely forgave the gangs for taking away his parents he found comfort in Caleb's steadfast belief of right and wrong. At the age of 12 tragedy struck again when Caleb was shot to death trying to defend a family from a gang. Once again alone Patrick finds it hard to relate to almost anyone and once again relies on pickpocketing to survive. Seeing no further futere in Boston Patrick begins wandering and eventually ends up in New York. Patrick enters PHS 552 trying to discover himself and his purpose.
Freshman year:
Patrick got into a lot of fights, usually against stronger seniors and graduates. Found himself fighting for the Defenders in the War of reformation. Ended up going undercover to work for Clarke to end the system of corpral punishment.
Sophmore year:
More fight, much monotony really however there was one key chain of events at the end of the year. It was the attack on 552 and and Jack's stabbing of a student that forced Patrick to fight him that changed his outlook on the black and white strictures of wrong and right. He decided that the world needed to be made a better place. That night he was jumped and shot in the leg by a Girl named Lexi and given the Scar on his back that he carries. He then takes up the moniker of the "Angel of death" in pursuit of ridding the world of evil.
Junior year so far: On the night that Patrick was disfigured he met his current Girlfriend, Zea Heart. The two made plans of making a bookstore together. During this time the mob began to fear the "angel of death" as the Italian mob was crumbling on Patrick's consistent attacks. Conrad, another student of 552 was sent to assasinate him. He found Patrick in the bookstore and their was a brief monolouge between the two before Zea stepped in. Patrick was scared for the first time in a long time not for himself but for Zea, he realized that his personal life and his "vendetta" could not be seperated...
Leaving New York for good.
With the Identity of The "angel of death" now discovered Patrick was very cautious, after the incident in the bookstore Patrick thought Conrad was going to let the two of them, Zea and Patrick live but he remained paranoid. His fears proved correct as one night he came home to find a note and a picture of Zea Heart tied to a chair down by the pier. The note told him he had until midnight to appear or she was dead. Patrick put on a vest, bulletproof of course and packed on as many guns as he could. He stromed to the pier in his Suv. He then proceeded to kill every mobster in his path until only three people were left alive; The leader of the gangsters, Zea and him. In the end Patrick saw Zea shot in the gut. That made him come to a complete stop as her head slouch down, he thought she was dead. He found himself shot in the chest. He stumbled back before careening into the water.
He washed up on shore several hours later. He immediatly returned to the site of the massacre only to find blood stains. There were no bodies. The only sign of struggle was the blood stains. Assuming it was a cleaner team Patrick returned home distraught. Not only had he failed to save the one whom he loved he didn't even have anything left. He returned to their apartment and gathered everything. It was time to get the hell out of dodge. He bought a beat up pickup truck and loaded it with all of his money and weapons that he could, a substantial amount of both. He left New York, forever. He drove around the country for awhile growing more cynical as he saw more and more cities just as corrupt as New York coming to think that number one was the only thing to care about. He eventually ended up in california and ended up enrolling in PHS 259 to finish his diploma and to move on...
