Description: James Hale is a fairly nondescript but good-looking fellow; 27 years old, 5'8", 158lbs, brown hair, grey-blue eyes, and a taste for dull-coloured, conservative clothing. He possesses a single tattoo, a celtic pattern about an inch wide encircling the middle of his upper right arm.
His beliefs revolve around loyalty and trust, he doesn't betray people or information of theirs which he may know. He doesn't really expect the same of most people, but he would expect it from close friends. James values his friends highly, and is always happy to spend money on them (when he has money) but is loathe to take sides when there is a conflict between any of them, preferring to mediate if possible.
Background: James originates from Brisbane, a state capital on the eastern coast of Australia. While there he attended University and earned himself a degree with Honours in Psychology in the hopes it would help him get a job as a detective in the Federal Police, or ASIO.
Three successful years after gaining an investigative position in ASIO he quit over a scandel involving amounts of drug money missing from crime scenes. While he was never charged with anything, he was very much suspected of being involved.
He decided to move overseas until the situation was forgotten. So he got in contact with his uncle in LA, Graham Vanderwolf, who ran a private investigation service, and managed to hook himself a job and some accomodation there.
He's spent the past two years in Los Angeles, working for his uncle and generally keeping his head down. He thinks that in about another years time it'd be all clear for him to go home, unless of course he gets enough interesting cases to convince him to stay longer.
