Butch

Cost: 2 points; Each point is payable in ¥3000 or 1 Karma per point.

Description

If you took unrelenting focus, phenomenal genetics, world-class chemical enhancement, a million-nuyen smile, and blended them all together, the hulking chiseled amalgam that emerged would be Butch. A meteoric ascent on the Mr. Universe Bodybuilding (Non-Aug Division) circuit was derailed by a seething ex-lover on the board, leaving Butch to find a new career path. Back in Seattle, he became the Strength and Conditioning Coach for Seattle U and has helped transform their student-athletes into hulking beasts, lithe predators, or whatever else is needed for their success.

Butch spends nearly every waking moment dialed in on athletic performance – his own, his teams, and his independent personal training clients who come from all walks of life. Every aspect is subject to precise optimization – work out programs, nutrition, sleep, supplementation, mental state, and much more. While working for Seattle U pays the bills, his independent clients are the most interesting. Their unique needs and generally higher dedication to performance lets him craft exquisitely custom and hellish programs that bring out the best in them.

When he allows himself non-gym time, Butch loves to party. On any Friday night that isn’t game night, he can usually be found at one of the up-scale student night-clubs, lapping up attention and infatuation from any direction with gusto. Butch won’t drink alcohol – too much catabolic activity – but he always has a bag of goodies ready to help everyone have a good time.
