Bᴀsɪᴄs
Full Name: Russell Keisuke Kobayashi
Nicknames: "Russ"
Codename: Hit-Parade
Aliases: Daniel Jones, Michael Takashima
Gender: Male
Age: 34
Marital Status: Engaged to Min-suh Park since Boxing Day 2014 (public knowledge); married to Min-suh Park since New Year's Day 2015 (known only to close friends and family)
Orientation: Straight

Pᴇʀsᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ
Russell tends towards quiet, dry-witted affability. He is often reserved in large crowds -- a limited number of close friends is more his speed. Reserved does not equate to shy, however, and he is more than willing to turn loose his wit (or shoot his mouth off, depending on who you ask) if the opportunity presents itself.

Among those who've gotten to know him, Russell is generous, gregarious, loyal, and surprisingly charming. Those close to him, sadly, also get to know his less laudable traits: overthinking things, an inconsistently-resisted tendency towards self-pity, and easily lapsing into old vices (i.e., heavy drinking, smoking, and sex) when under stress. He still believes strongly in the Toronto Police Service motto -- "To Serve and Protect" -- and while he has managed to temper this ideal somewhat with a pragmatic understanding of the secret world, he has proven unable (or unwilling) to abandon it. This "knight in shining armor" tendency has both been part of his likability and gotten him in hot water, sometimes simultaneously.
