Some you will not be able to reason with or negotiate with and there is just evil in the world and that is kind of the approach he takes. He doesnt necessarily like it when he knows it needs to be done he went out and he does it. He runs through the bucs as a combination of multiple people that ive known in the world of government, diplomacy, part of government.

He is a collection of these people and then what i tell folks is that hes my alter ego. He gets to go and do the things my wife wont let me do. She let me go to afghanistan but she drew the line of chasing female operatives. So there is a line i cant cross. Host
