Rubin Hart

HISTORY
Studied psychology and political science in college. Varsity rowing and long distance running.

Recruited by the FBI out of college. Largely out of public view, but surfaced in criminal courts as an undercover witness against various members of organized crime.

Recruited by the CIA. For the first three years he excelled at field work and finding those who did not want to be found. Personnel file, while heavily redacted, indicates increasing obsessive hunting behavior and talk of aliens. Released from service in his fourth year.

Recruited for unknown duties at Cardiff based Torchwood agency. Torchwood’s unusual ability for media spin masked 100% of his official activities. However, accounts by police, ministers and morticians indicate he was arrested several times for defacing statuary in public monuments, cathedrals and mausoleums.

PROFILE
Rubin is a study of the ordinary. He is assiduous about not dressing too nicely or too poorly. He walks neither fast nor slow. His opinions mirror whomever he is speaking with. He can step into any ordinary crowd and vanish. He has stated that a high point of any day for him is someone bumping into him and saying, “Oh, I didn’t see you.”

As a field operative, Rubin can adequately defend himself, without weapons if need be. He augments whatever service weapon he is issued with an older .38 snub-nosed six-shot revolver, rumored to be his father’s who was a detective killed in the line of duty. He can improvise when necessary and can be elusive when pursued.

As for whether anyone would let him be a field operative or hire him for long on any job, this is unlikely. Rubin Hart is convinced there is an ancient race of aliens hunting humans to feed on their futures.
