JAMES BENJAMIN HAWKINS

GODSPEED THIS LETTER AWAY FROM HERE
i've sealed it with my tears
and stamped it with my fears

•• nicknames: Hawk
•• age: 29
•• birth era: Old West
•• date of birth: 5/25
•• as portrayed by: Paul Walker

•• your character’s body: Hawkins’s hair is a dirty blond and often heats up from the suns rays. Well that is unless he's wearing his black cowboy hat that he usually wears. Hawkins has a medium build and muscles on his arms as well as his legs. It's what happens when you have a job like his. His hands are perfectly steady, making him an excellent quick draw. Hawkins stands at an even 5'11" and looks down at most people. His weight is around 200, not to light, not to skinny ether. Hawkins isn't always clean shaven, leaving the stubble to grow out a bit before he shaves it off completely. Usually he's not lazy and makes a bit of an effort to be clean cut as often as he can but sometimes he just doesn't give a care. His eyes are a ble grey color that seem to transfix any person who stare into them.

MY WORK HERE IS THROUGH
i’m on my way to better days
and so are you

•• likes: Good people, poker, the Madam(Emily), star filled nights, the law, dogs
•• dislikes: criminals, cats, liars, arrogant people
•• general personality: From the minute Hawkins could talk he always had this flow about him that put people at ease. He has a good sense of humor and can be quite the nice person. His sense of the law is unfaltering and once you break it you might as well put yourself in jail to get away from the hurtin' that will come to ya. He can be quite the romantic when he wants to be but this side of him is almost always hidden and only shown to a very few lucky people. He is not a stranger to a few rounds of whiskey and the like and will be found in the saloon when not on duty. Most likely he'd be seen flirting with Emily.

On days when he has nothing to do and it's not late enough to go to the saloon he'll go out and practice shoot with his rifles or handguns, the practice is needed but it strangely relaxes him. Hawkins is fearless to say the least, it was one of the reasons he got the job. He is not afraid to risk his life to protect others and will do so without any hesitation. His quick thinking is also a part of what got him the job. His quick reactions always managed to save his butt and others in the past and continue to do so.

•• hometown: Hooker, OK
•• job(s): Sheriff
•• general history: Growing up on a farm outside of town, Hawkins learned how to take care of all the chores and animals and all that kind of stuff. He was bored out of his mind until the day a roving group of bandits came through and held up in their barn. Hawkins watched as a sheriff and his deputy took them on alone. Hawkins pa joined in with his Winchester and all three got into a shoot out. Hawkins watched wide-eyed as his father took a bullet and the Sheriff pull him to safety. Then the deputy took one in the head and killed him. It was the first time Hawkins saw someone die before. It was finally up to the sheriff to save the day, and save it he did. With his own Winchester he took them all out.

After patching up his father, Hawkins knew what he was going to do when he grew up. After becoming of age and old enough, Hawkins became the Sheriff's Deputy and for years he was taught the ropes and became a crack shot. When the Sheriff finally retired he gave Hawkins his Winchester and to this day it's his favorite weapon to use. After years of practice with it, Hawkins carries it on patrol out in the open, it lets those what they'll get if they think about breaking the law or messing with him. One tends to think twice once they stare down the barrel of a Winchester
