He began an obsessive personal quest to understand what happened to him; a quest that lead him to correspondence with Sen. Conklin and then eventually to this team.

Sounds good to me. Texas Ranger would be nice. Experience at warring with Comanches is also good.

What can he do?

Is he good with people? What, if any, is his style of investigation like?

He's obsessed, you say? John Wayne in The Searchers obsessed? That suggests intensity, lack of humour and little frivolity. Probably not a man for carousing or hobbies. Unless drinking to forget, I guess. Tell us more about proposed personality. What kind of characters would complement him? Who'd be a natural foil for him? Do you see him as the friend of any of the other PCs?

What style of combat does he prefer? Weapons? He a horseman?
