OOC STUFF Player Name: Andie Pronouns: they/them Contact(s):stickyholograms or dystopiandie on Discord Time Zone: CST (UTC−06:00) Tagging Habits: I've got a regular 8:00 - 5:00 in state government that inhibits weekday tagging, apart from the occasional stolen paragraph here and there. Most of my tagging takes place on the weekday evenings (think 7:00 - 11:00 PM) or weekend afternoons (around 2:00 - 7:00 PM on average). I love boomeranging whenever possible, but I know that's a rare treat for most people in this hobby. I try to tag back at least every day or two unless there are extenuating circumstances. I'm always happy to take a thread to Plurk or Discord and hash out a mutual understanding of what happens if we can't play it out, but other than that I'm not often one to engage in a whole lot of heavy planning. I love to have a catalyzing event in mind and just see where things develop.
IC STUFF Character Name: Wrench (Smith 🫢) Character Age: ~38 Canon: Fargo TV Canonpoint: S03E10: Somebody to Love
The Elevator Pitch: Wrench is a former hitman and only surviving member of the Fargo crime syndicate, which operated across the upper Midwest from the 1980s through the early 2000s. As children, Wrench and his former partner Numbers were introduced to its boss, a man who would come to be known as Moses Tripoli. It is presumed that both boys grew up with some involvement in the syndicate, where they were trained to kill at the behest of its associates. While stalking Lorne Malvo — a man responsible for the death of one of the syndicate's members — Wrench was wounded by an officer, and his partner Numbers was murdered. Wrench managed to escape and has been on the run for the past decade, evading capture by the US Marshals.
It's worth the mention that Wrench is also Deaf and does not voice. I've got a fun little Communication FAQ should anyone want it, and I'm happy to answer any questions and brainstorm alternative methods of communication if so desired.
Non-Event Hooks: Whew, well. In canon, Wrench has spent the last decade-plus evading capture by the US Marshals and acting as a sort of avenging angel. It's presumed that no living person knows his real name, nor has any connections to him. He's very unused to being in the public eye, and the fact that he suddenly has a wife and neighbors and people who are going to look him in the eye and call him by his name (however alias-y it might be) is Fucking Weird to him already. Learning how to behave in polite society is going to be his first hurdle because he is deeply unacculturated to living in a house.
What are they up to in Sweetwater? Currently fucking panicking on the inside but acting cool as ice on the outside, thanks so much for asking.
Most Desired CR: I am literally taking all comers. I'm so excited to see how anything and everything turns out. There is nothing I don't want, except that I'd like to maybe do a little skipping past the requisite "why-are-we-here-and-how-do-we-leave" with as many characters as possible and get down to some Other Stuff.
Undesired CR: What? Is? This?
Any threads you really want to play out? I am here for it all and more than happy to throw Wrench into anyone's path to be a set of hands in whatever they've got going on. The man has a tendency to serve other people's aims more than his own, and it's entirely likely that he might find himself in the midst of something he did not even intend simply because he doesn't know any better.

He's also never had anything approaching a "real job," and his whole résumé is basically built around survival skills. If you need someone to teach you how to field dress a deer or build a lean-to or use an ice auger he's probably your guy, but if you're looking for someone to talk pop culture or current global events or just the best brand of breakfast cereal... the man is lost.
