History: Joaquin has always been an uncontrolled academic. When he was a kid, he hurt his leg climbing to the top bookshelf in the public library -- someone pushed it down on top of himself and the femur wasn't set quite right. The good news is, that gave a child of blue-collar immigrants enough money in the settlement to go to college, even though he'd been a dreamer and not gotten the best of grades. In university he settled down and sailed through programs, usually fighting for one of the top spots; he bounced from university to university for his education mostly to meet new people -- he's never been terribly good at that. He did a couple years work as a researcher for a small biotech firm, but he knew he always wanted to teach, so he jumped at every opportunity and eventually was offered a full-time gig. He's been teaching at his old alma mater for a couple years now, living in the city instead of outside it for once, and he loves the place. He's got a reputation already as a tough old guy -- the cane and prematurely greying hair make folk think he's been around longer than he has, and he cultivates a reputation as a 'total bastard' although he's not got a cruel streak. It means his classes are orderly without too much work. Past Background Occupation: Schoolteacher (ex), police consultant Education: Teaching certification from local college, bachelors in biology Activities: saving the world, consulting with police, antique coin collecting, reading, writing, occasionally hiding from the press Home: family house Finance: inheritance and support from his guardian; small income from freelance cases History: Small-town teacher Johnny Smith had the perfect life -- grow up, go to college, come home, marry the high-school sweetheart. The fact that he had a few precognitive abilities never bothered him -- he just moved on from it, and controlled them quite well. He is involved in a car accident that leaves him comatose for six years. After regaining consciousness, Johnny begins having visions of the past and future triggered by touching items or people, an uncontrolled version of his old powers. His doctor attribute the visions to activity in a previously unused "dead zone" of his brain that is attempting to compensate for the impaired function of the portions injured in the accident. Johnny also learns that his fiancée, Sarah, gave birth to his son in the interim following the accident, but has since married another man. With the help of Sarah, her husband Walt, and physical therapist Bruce, Johnny begins using his abilities to help solve crimes. It leads him down the primrose path to saving the world, but he keeps his head down as best as he can.
