[QUOTE="Paka, post: 1469719, member: 100"] [i]E-mailed to me from a player:[/i] I might do a nicer, story-version of this, but in brief: Chickasaw Jack Jack probably ain't Chickasaw. He isn't even all Injun. His daddy was squarehead and his momma was Injun. (No one knows what tribe, no one much cares, neither.) He growed up real handsome, and there ain't a boy been born since Thor hisself who's biggern' stronger. Only problem was, he got slowed up along the way. His daddy turned to that crucifixtion cult and never did take too kindly to him. Downright hated the poor bastard after his momma died. Boy kinda stood out. A little too red for Valhalla if ya kinnit, and that began to itch on his daddy more and more each day since his little bit of Injun pussy passed. Jack's daddy took it into his head--with the help of the local preacher, mind--that the red in Jack's flesh was a hint of the little red pitchfork man runnin' all over inside little Jackie's soul. Daddy took it into his head--still not by his own self--that maybe beatin the boy would save his soul. Came time when Jack was old enough to choose to be born again in Jesus' waters. Little Jackie wanted his daddy to like him so much. He thought for sure this would be the way. So he done it. Only he got held down too long under the under and he ain't been right since. Still, everyone's got use for a strong halfwit who aims to please hard like he do. :):):):), it makes the boy so damned happy when he gets somethin right.
