Backstory:
Not much is known about the man calling himself John Truth, whose medical records are still classified after several years' treatment in a state psychiatric facility.
He is estimated to be somewhere in his 40s, and is believed to reside around the Seattle area. It is also said he finished with his woman because she couldn't help him with his mind, and that people think he's insane because he is frowning all the time.

Appearance: A dishevelled, unkempt middle-aged man with greasy, receding dark-brown hair, several-day stubble and a definite beer paunch, scowling his way through life. Usually seen in shabby, stained clothes – normally denims, flannels, tank tops and combat boots.


Entrance Music: Paranoid (Black Sabbath)
