Richard Morgan Sanders
I saw you sliding out the bar.
I saw you slipping out the back door, baby.
Don't even try and find a line this time, its fine.
Darling, you're still divine.
You don't love me at all, but don't think that it bothers me at all.

Body Type: Muscular
Best Feature: His smile
Worst Feature:None
Sexuality: Straight
Personal Style: Jeans, shirts, a leather jacket and boots is what he’d more likely be found in. He has a love for sunglasses just because…face it baby, they look cool.
Face Claim: Matthew Mcconaughey
Abilities: He is a healer. He cannot heal himself, but he can heal others. The down side is that it really takes a toll on him and leaves him feeling the pain from those he healed.
Personality: Richard is good at light-hearted banter, one-night stands, casual lies…not so good when it comes to any sort of honest exchange or genuine emotional connection. That might make him seen like a purely arrogant and egoistical person but if you take the time to dig into his brain there is another side of him, the one that is good hearted, caring, brave and fiercely loyal.
Driven by a dark secret in his past he possesses two major character flaws. The first is his compulsion to save. The second is the way he copes with that stress: a steady stream of adrenalin, booze and women.
The steady stream of sleep deprivation, adrenalin pumping activities, booze and sex helps to numb the pain, to dull his senses to that he can get through the day and he resorts to flirting and drinking to lessen the pain. His search for excitement makes so that he only sleeps three or four hours every few nights and that he has somewhere around 50 drinks per week.

Bio: Thor, the god of Thunder and son of Odin had two sons, Magni and Modi long before most of the Asgardian gods decided to leave Midgard behind to man. But Magni, disobeying his father, one night crossed the Bifrost bridge to Earth and in his wanderings, the god met a mortal woman by the name of Lucy Sanders.
Fast forward nine months and Richard Sanders were born.
The boy grew up without knowing who his father really were, his mother never talked of him at all and it was obvious she wasn’t too happy for his father abandoning them. But Richard never thought he missed a father that didn’t care to stick around to know him anyways.
For a demigod his life was pretty much an ordinary one and if you count that his mother worked hard to provide for him, so much that at a young age he was left by himself, it wasn’t hard to understand that he’d get into a fair share of trouble and that he’d grew up around cops, so his inseparable buddy was none than Tim Simmons. The two of them were always together raising hell and wooing the ladies.
The two friends joined the police as soon as they could, best friends and partners, they loved it.
It was only one and a half year later that Richard discovered his ability. After helping a cute woman named Julia that was a drug addict from being attacked from her dealer, he instinctively used his power to clean the drugs from her system and free her from her addiction. By doing so, he ended being high for two days in a row and suffering from withdraw later. Julia and he started a romance soon afterwards.
Not long after, Tim was stabbed by a criminal and Richard used his ability to heal his friend, only to collapse and awoke one day later at the hospital with internal bleeding.
He told everything to Tim, and his friend kept his secret. It seemed like everything was going back to normal when Tim was shot during a particular bust. Seeing his best friend take a lethal shot, Richard froze. If he was to help his friend, he would die for it? He didn’t want to die, and the fear and confusion froze him in place.
In the funeral, all he could think was Tim’s eyes while he died, knowing he could have saved him and yet was too afraid to take the chance. It was then that he took on drinking and started to avoid any kind of bonds to anyone what strained the ties between him and Julia and cause their relationship to fall apart.
So he did all that he could, live on and try to forget with a steady stream of booze and women.
