Heh.

Half- what else, though?

Scots-Irish, Anglo-Saxon, Hispanic, etc.?

I mean the real one, that is.

It's important, do you see, because the ghost stories and legends you grew up with matter a lot in a setting like this...

Also, if you don't mind, I'd maybe make him something more than just a shooter. Mundane crew and even mundane shooters, Kessler recruits through a network of people already in his employ, or related to them.

For someone that far from his Caribbean, Gulf Coast and Texas stomping grounds, as well as the French Foreign Legion and African adventures of his youth to be with him, it pretty much has to be a Story. And that means Danny wasn't recruited just as a loyal crew member or ordinary private security shooter, he was probably recruited as a Monster Hunter.
