Description


If you though the basements of Cosa Nostra were safe, then you were dead wrong my friend.



Name: Jase “Mama” Lee

Age: 49

Gender: Male

Height: 9'1” (not counting tail)

Species: Saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus)

Gang: Cosa Nostra

Rank: E (14/160)

Fighting Style: Although Mama for all means and purposes is a medic, it does not mean that he can’t pack quite a punch. The man’s years gave him priceless experience and his body build allows him access to remarkable power. The crocodile is a walking powerhouse, the strength of his arms and tail unmatched by a mere human. Saltwater crocodile’s bite is the strongest in the world, and Mama is no exception. Stay away from those jaws, filled with razor-sharp teeth - he is not afraid to use them. Somewhat safe on the land, he turns into an apex predator in the water – the tail is as good for swimming as for dealing hits.

Weapon: None.

Personality: The affectionate nickname “Mama” given to him by Vidal, which stuck to him like glue is no exaggeration – the man certainly acts it. He busies around the younger members, keeping their health in check and aids them with his experience. The man does not fight much anymore, as he grew tired of the violent ways of this world and instead sacrificed himself for science – he became a doctor, in hopes of saving lives instead of taking them. He absolutely loathes to see the youngsters sacrificing themselves so thoughtlessly. He might appear gruff and rough on the edges, but he is simply a misunderstood crocodile – it is hard to make friends when you are a 9’1” apex predator with razor-sharp teeth. But first of all he is a warrior – and that doesn’t make him too delicate at things that require delicacy. You don’t want to treat a broken leg? He will break your other one if you don’t sit still when he says so. In a chatty mood when he knits your wound together? Don’t test his patience when he’s holding a needle, child. But when not needed in the medical field, the man has patience of a Buddhist monk. Especially when it comes to his leader. He adores children, and wishes they would adore him as well. Alas, he looks the way he looks, so he exits his basement only when necessary.

Talents: As he is 9 feet of muscles, he posses bone-shattering strength – be it in punches, or in the powerful swings of his tail. The years of fighting made his natural hard scales even harder, and so his crocodile skin is impenetrable (so far, he is the only one to survive King Friend’s infamous hugs, brushing them off as what they are meant to be – friendly hugs). Lightning fast jaws filled with razor-sharp teeth, once he catches them with you, he will never let go – as they were designed to do so. Ungraceful on land, he turns into a ballerina in the water – he can stay under it even for an hour. Can fall into lethargy, slowing the beating of his heart to one per minute, making him capable of surviving months without food. Although he might not appear it, the man possesses quite a dexterity, making him a capable surgeon when in need of one. Having spent most of the last years on medicine, he has the required knowledge in this field.

Weaknesses: Great defense and strength do not make up for great speed, especially on land. The only lightning fast parts of his body are his jaws, and to use them the target must be in his reach. Nearly blind in his right eye, a result of an injury sustained in the past, his opponent might sneak up to him from his right side. His size makes it hard for him to fit in tight spaces, and most of the doors in The Casino have been manually resized to make it easier for him to move. The lack of water for long periods of time is not good for his health, and so he lives in the damp basements of the Cosa Nostra’s base.

Background: Mama, like most of the crocodiles, was a violent and territorial thing. The man’s past was certainly adventurous, filled with the days of rampage, murder and gangs – one of which he became a leader at one point. Such a lifestyle does not help gaining friends however, the opposite in fact – it wasn’t long before he got a price on his head. It just happened that the one to take up the challenge of severing it from his body was a young Italian assassin named Vidal. The attempt failed, Mama saved by his tough crocodile skin, leaving only a scar. The near-death experience opened his eyes and for the first time in his life, he started to notice things previously ignored. The young threw away their lives, but for what cause? A new goal in front of him, he abandoned his previous life in favor of becoming a medic. Set on saving as many lives as he took, he is currently looking for redemption in his work. Given an invite to the gang by Vidal for old times’ sake he accepted, liking the group’s family-like atmosphere – family is something he sought after his whole life, but never had a chance at. Although he does not approve of Vidal’s occupation he puts up with it, and now resides in the Cosa Nostra’s basement, serving with advice, not only medical.

Other:
- He has a rough rumbling baritone. It sounds as if he was growling instead of talking.
- He is actually Australian, and as such possesses the infamous accent – covered up by the hisses and roars, as it’s hard to speak when one is a crocodile – his native slur can be easily assigned to Mama being a giant lizard.
- As a surgeon needs nimble hands, he practices his dexterity by… knitting. Don’t be surprised if you get a hand-made sweater for you birthday.
- Most of the gang’s funds go to the bleach needed to keep his coat the white color it is right now. The man is surprisingly clean for a crocodile.
- Crocodiles grow their whole lives, and Mama is no exception. He does not change his physician coats often and so they became rather…form fitting as the years passed.
- He has mixed feelings about the Council. At one hand they do organize the young’s time, but on the other the do not put stop to the violence.
- He is considered a very handsome crocodile, but by most standards his looks are to put it simply… horrifying.
- Which does not stop Vidal from trying to get into his pants. Vidal will be Vidal – the ends to his tastes are the world’s greatest mystery. Mama shrugs it off and became incredibly potent at ignoring the wolf’s advances.
- All he wants are little crocodiles of his own.
- He likes to hang around Spawn’s headquarters, as they give him a lot of opportunities for long needed swims. The man is a beast in water.
