Hospital Personnel
Name: Father Francis John Jameson
Age:65
ProfessionRoman Catholic Priest, Hospital Chaplain
Ethnicity:Caucasion
------
Personal Style: Father Francis Jameson is a creature of habit when it comes to clothing. He is hardly ever seen out of his clericals. When he is working at the Hospital, he will wear his clericals as well as a white lab coat with a cross on the lapel. When he is not 'on duty', he can be seen wearing less formal clothing. A black turtle-neck sweater with a tweed coat is a common outfit for him to be seen in, when not in the clericals. When he is doing any form of exercise, he will wear a sweat-suit displaying his alma mater, Princeton.
Physical Appearance:Father Francis is a relatively mild looking man. He does not have any sharp features to speak of. He sort of holds the look of a nerd, some what. His hair is grey with bits of black to remind him of his youth. The man also keeps a beard.
The priest's eyes are grey and not very powerful. He is always wearing a pair of steel-rimmed glasses ontop of his button-like nose. Francis is not a very tall man, stading at five feet and seven inches. The priest is very physically fit. He is a boxer and keeps his body toned to the best of his ability.
Scars/Tatoos/ Piercings: Francis has a tatoo on the back of his neck, that is never seen by any, in the shape of a Roman Cross with the following words translated into latin "Love Conquers All"[[Vincent Amor Omnia]].
Best Physical Feature:Francis is quite fond of his eyes, despite their impotancy.
Worst Physical Feature:Father Jameson hates his dimunutive height.

Likes: Boxing, Christianity, History, Football, color purple, EWTN, Peace, Social Justice, Irish
Dislikes:Prejudice, Oranges, Soda, Fords, Mormons[More of an annoyance, not a dislike]
Personality: Father Francis is a man of great virtue. He is sturdy in his morals and his faith. He is not a man to stand aside and let something that he does not agree with happen. He knows that he cannot always stop things from happening, but he can give a good fight against it.
Francis is a very kind fellow in all terms. He is a poster child priest. He knows that not everybody is Catholic and he accepts it. He does not allow his own faith to determine his friendships or rivals. He views all people as the children of God and will do everything in his power to protect them.
Biggest Personality Flaw: Francis often feels that it is his duty to protect and defend EVERYBODY. He often gets himself to deep into the water to get himself out and often disappoints himself as a result.
Biggest Personality Strength: He has incredible strength in his morals and faith.

History:
Father Francis grew up in St.Paul, Minnesota. His father was a Senator and had his office in the State Capitol. The family did not live very far from the Capitol, so he was always within walking distance of his father. During high school, Francis developed a love of boxing and on the varsity team. He also tried football for a while in the off season, to keep himself in shape for boxing.
After graduating from high school, Francis attended St.Thomas University and double majored in History and Theology. He then proceeded onto Princeton Divinity School, where he was given his Masters degree in theology and became ordained. He then returned to his home state of Minnesota and was hired as the Assistant Rector at the Basilica of St.Mary, where he stayed for a while.
He was drafted to serve as a Chaplain in Vietnam. He was assigned to a MASH unit as the only Chaplain. As soon as the war was over, he decided to get a certificate in medical aid at the University of Minnesota. He was then hired by the Mayo Clinic and St.Mary's Hospital to serve as head Chaplain, where he remained for a few years.
Due to the death of his parents, Father Francis returned to his old alma mater and earn his Doctor of Sacred Theology degree.

Roleplaying Sample:
Father Francis Jameson quietly stepped out of his office. His morning was quite booked and it hadn't even started yet. He had woken up to the sound of the sirens of an ambulance. The priest looked out his window and saw paramedics removing a person from the house across the street, Mrs. Finkle. Francis threw on a pair of black pants and his clerical and dashed out the door, forgeting his coat. He quickly drove in the wake of the ambulance, trying to dodge traffic as much as possible. He was only five minutes behind the ambulance when he pulled into the staff parking place.
He quickly took the lift to the second floor where his office was and entered the small room quickly. The man fumbled for his the tab collar and inserted it into the slots on his shirt and grabbed his spare coat. After buttoning one of the buttons on the white lab coat, he grabbed his bible and holy water and set out for the ER.
He did his best to stay out of the Doctors' ways whilst he was in the Emergency Room. He offered what ever help he could to the Doctors and the Nurses and then tended to the patient when he could. Mrs. Finkle was a Jewess and thereby would not need the holy water or the Bible. As he knocked on the door of the ER and took his entrance, he took a look over to the woman. She had had a stroke, by the looks of it.
"How will she be?" He inquired to the nurse standing by the woman. With a positive nod from the woman, Francis stepped closer to the woman. "Good morning, Mrs. Finkle. You woke me up this morning." He said with a playful tone and a wink. "I hope you feel good about that." With a smile to the nurse, he set about doing his job, ready for anything that should happen.
PUT SPECIAL PHRASE HERE. You can't always get what you want
