WASHINGTON
"Hmm. Aggressive, paranoid, and a little melodramatic. You must be Agent Washington." RED VS BLUE

Agent Washington started out the “rookie.” Despite being experienced as a soldier he had a youthful naivety and was both gullible and comically reactive, often leading others to tease and trick him. He was best known not for his considerable fighting skill but for being the guy who got grappling hooked in the crotch -- when everyone is a super soldier, someone still has to be the joke. Generally good natured back then, if a little awkward, Wash snarked back but didn't seem to mind, and genuinely cared for his comrades. He’s always been extremely loyal to and protective of his fellow soldiers despite his hidden temper, including a history of violent disobedience. Wash admitted that he did hold grudges, but claimed everyone he's ever hurt was deserving of his ire. Little did anyone know just what he was actually capable of... These days, after a great deal of trauma and a brief (failed) stint as a villain, Wash is simply trying to do better. To be there for the people who were there for him, as those loyal and protective traits never really left. He's trying to be a good friend and a good person, albeit one who has a knack for saying the wrong thing and setting others off. He's actively trying to let go of the past and his grudges, though his motivations have been replaced in part by guilt. Wash is now all about control, or maybe he always was -- he slips into leader mode in stressful situations to cope, and as a result has become both more patient and has a tighter leash on his anger. The things that Wash has survived due to his own resilience and the help he got along the way have shaped him into a complex but caring person, one who will do anything for his friends. More detail can be found in his In The Night Application and on the RvB Wiki!
Wash's backstory deals with torture, suicide, genocide, murder... quite frankly he is a train wreck. Despite being at his most stable he’s got severe PTSD, will still resort to violence in most situations (even if he’s no longer as shoot-first-ask-questions-later), and is only just getting a handle on a lifetime of anger and still harbors guilt and resentment concerning his past. Although he doesn't discuss these things casually if you would prefer to opt out of any of this or prefer that Wash not tag you, a comment to this post will serve as an opt-out. All comments are screened and confidential.
Wash is only human, but he is an extremely competent fighter. Most notably with firearms, hand to hand, and knife throwing. He’s cunning in battle and has some experience with infiltration and hacking. He’s also agent cockroach — he can take quite a beating and keep on kicking. In Hadriel he learned d&d style magic and knows the following spells: light (nerfed), prestidigitation (the fire element is nerfed), shocking grasp, mending, mage hand, and a simple healing spell (he can't do much more than close small wounds or stop bleeding).
