[break]Usual Attire Generally he is going to be in jeans and a t-shirt when he is not at work. At work, he is in his uniform of the button up navy blue shirt and navy blue slacks.






[break]General Aura Sawyer is fairly easily approachable, but he might come off as unfriendly. He is caring, but he tries not to get attached and so generally does not smile much. He'll give you the shirt off his back if he thinks it will help, he just doesn't like letting people get under his skin.

Likes Staying alone, his dog Bailey, his brother behaving[break]







Dislikes not being there for his brother, clingy people, people trying to get under his skin, people commenting about his limp[break]







Fears Losing those he loves (so he just walls himself off and won't let anyone in), something happening to his brother[break]







Overall PersonalitySawyer now tries to stay a loner, even though he's willing to give people the shirt off his back. He is afraid of getting attached because he is afraid of losing anyone else. Needless to say though, he's been failing at that with inviting Vanity and now Majorie to stay with him and his brother. He is a strong individual, but he still gets upset with the past sometimes and still periodically suffers from PTSD episodes. [break]

Life Events


James was a fairly wild child, earning him the nickname Sawyer from his parents because of his hair brained schemes that they found akin to that of Tom Sawyer in the books by Mark Twain. He took the name and ran with it, having been read the tales as a bed time story. Sawyer kept the name and threw it around throughout highschool. He had several girlfriends, but nothing serious or long term. And then, the terrible happened. When he was 17, his horse passed away that he had had since before he could even walk, which turned him off of attaching himself to people...but then...
When he turned 18, he was about to graduate. Didn't have the best of marks, but decent enough. He'd been accepted into college, he wanted to be a rockstar, or something along those lines. His dad had always told him he could be whatever he wanted to be. And then his parents died in a car accident, which sent Sawyer into a deep depression. He wanted to run. He wanted to take his anger out on those that had wronged him, but they'd never caught the man. They had his car plates on camera, and the way he was driving it was obvious he was under the influence of something...but they were never able to catch him.
After this happened, Sawyer decided he needed to man up. More or less abandoning his brother to his grandparents, he joined the army-leaving three days after graduation for basic training. The army changed him. He still went by Sawyer, but he was no more a ladies man. In fact, he became almost turned off to any of their sexual advances. Why did it matter? He refused to fall in love and have kids with someone just so that he could die and leave them broken hearted.
Sawyer was in the army for nearly eight years when he was injured by a car bomb. His right knee was completely shattered, they weren't even sure if they were going to keep the leg because of the shrapnel. But somehow they managed. Somehow they were able to save it, and he was eventually able to walk again; with a fairly pronounced limp. Unable to continue in the army, he was honorably discharged.
Having nothing to do anymore, he returned home. Home to find his brother charged with a DUI. He grew infuriated with his brother and decided things needed to change. But that was when he decided to become a police officer. His leg nearly fully healed, but he'd always have the pain and the hitch, he went to the police academy. He never wanted to be the leader; he had done that in the army and two men had died in that car bomb. And so, he decided to become a canine officer-partly because it would be good to have a dog to sniff out any illegal substances his idiotic brother might have, and because he didn't want to really have to deal with a human partner...they always disappointed you anyway.

After Academy, and after the court date, Sawyer decided to uproot his brother and take him some place new. They both grew up in Seattle, and he figured his little brother needed a quieter place...and he found it in the small island town of Firefly Falls. They had an opening for a canine officer. He threw his brother on the boat and took away his keys, telling him that he had a horse, he could ride it to work.
