"The nation that will insist upon drawing a broad line of demarcation between the fighting man and the thinking man is liable to find its fighting done by fools and its thinking by cowards."
- Sir William Butler, 1889
Overview
Tony has been around the block once or twice. He escaped in 2003 near Darwin, Aus, and joined the local Freehold right away. After finding out certain Truthes he never looked back. He became a history junkie right away and checked himself into using his skillset from before he was taken. Once he'd matured heavily into the life of the Lost, he struck out on his own and went back to his home nation, the United States. He bounced around the world working for various companies doing 'consulting work' in different regions. After several years of this he'd amassed quite a savings and moved to Miami and joined the Freehold there while doing more 'consulting work' with the Broward County Sheriffs Office while joining the Freehold there. As interesting as it was, he got tired of the weather and the big city and moved to the Northeast, returning to a small area like his hometown. He joined the freehold in Bar Harbor, Maine, and stayed active. He used his reputation from Broward County and took to doing a lot of the same work all over New England with various State Police departments and some of the larger Sheriffs Offices. But things happen. Again sick of the ocean, he decided to move inland and see what a friend from Aleswich was up to.
RP Hooks
- Cops - Some of the cops around town seem to know him and will wave or flash lights in passing. Have Contacts or Allies in Law Enforcement? Might find out quite a bit.
- Unassuming - Polk doesn't go out of his way to be unassuming, but he doesn't advertise particular skillsets. But he will answer direct questions most of the time.
- New in Town - He just got into town at the end of August. Show him around, ask about where he's been.
Contacts
- Dielle - He's known her for several years now. Done some adventuring together.

- You're dancin' with your demons baby
- You forgot your former lie
- and it was hard swimmin' once
- and now you're daily divin' in
