Character Personality: Ed is a man who believes in absolute justice at all cost. He is also a man who believes organized crime is a sometimes nessecary evil for the citizens of Lost Haven. A man of his convictions, he hardly ever backs down from what he believes to be right.
Origin Info/Details: A 20 year vet of the Lost Haven Police Department, Inspector Ed Smith is one of the Haven's top cops. He is famous in the police department for the solving of the famous Dr. Frankenstein murders 10 years ago. In those ten years, he has climbed the ladder like a rocket. He made captain at the age of 32 and, at 41, is in prime position to be named Chief of Detectives and Chief of Police all in the next ten years. Five years ago, Chief Finger approved Smith to form a "Mob Squad". Essentially, they kidnap would be gangsters setting up shop in Haven, take them to a run down motel, and beat them half to death before sending them home. He does this for two reasons. The first is to keep organized crime to a minimum. The second is to appease the current crime families in Lost Haven. He sees the current families as a needed force in the town, and works with them from time to time.

List a few reasons why you've created that character: I love playing Gordon, and this is my chance to play an anti-Gordon. I also enjoy James Ellroy's LA novels, and this character is an amalgam of my two favorite characters from his four novels. Brilliant Ed Exley and corupt Dudley Smith.

Sample Post (Minimum Four paragraphs containing dialogue):
The Haven Arms Motel
WHUMP!
Johnny "Legs" Legarrio sucks in air as Mike Eckling works on his ribs with a tire iron. I lean against the run down motel's cheap dresser while I read over his file.
"Johnny, Johnny, Johnny. You've been a bad boy."
WHUMP!
"Prostituion, racketeering, smut peddleing."
WHUMP!
"All while you do it on Boss Zano's turf? Very bad."
WHUMP!
I walk over the cracked and rotten floors and grab the beaten and brusied italian by his head and stare into his swollen eyes while Eckling hands me the bloody tire iron.
"Go back to Jersey, Johnny. This is Haven, the city of the angels. And you haven't got any wings."
I swing hard with the tire iron and come down on his nose, breaking it with a sickening crack and knocking the mobster unconscious.
Turning to Mike, I toss him the iron and wipe my hands on a towel.
"Clean him up and get him on the first train out to New Jersey. I'll call Zano and tell him he won't have to worry about him anymore."
