Other Characters Played: None ever!
Preferred Housing: N/A
Character Name: Luce Worth, Doc Worth, Worth, asshole, douchebag... plenty of other mean and degrading things to be sure.
Character Series: Hanna is Not a Boy's Name
Character Age: Mid thirties-ish
Background:
Doc Worth calls himself a doctor, but not many other people do. I mean Hanna does, but Hanna has terrible judgment. Doc Worth did the whole fancy going to medical school thing for a while, until he realized that dressing nicely and remembering a bunch of ‘useless crap’ wasn’t really his style. So he dropped out, fell out of touch with his family and started a practice in a dark alley somewhere while simultaneously deciding that all of his coats needed to have a line of fur on it for absolutely no reason except maybe that it made him look sorta dingier and skeezier.
Worth has horrible posture, finding no real reason why he should do anything to please anyone he doesn’t care about. He simply embodies apathy when it comes to what people think of him, and even seems to make a fun game out of trying to get a rise out of some. Worth is obnoxious, crude, abrasive and borderline disgusting, and underneath his grungy exterior and antagonistic behavior he really still is actually just a dick.
But he helps Hanna so there’s that.

Besides that not too much is known about Worth's back story. If one goes digging they can find tid bits that are Word of God, and thus are completely and totally true. Though don't shed too much light on the good doctor, just interesting facts to know.
While Worth may be filthy and live in a back alley, he grew up high class, which apparently was too boring for him. So living in a dump and not having decent hygiene is much more exciting. But if your, most likely, only client is Hanna, then it probably is more exciting. He also has a sister (who he's pretty protective of), though she's yet to make any appearance in the comic itself.
So far in the comic he's gotten into fisticuffs with Conrad, become said vampire's meal-ticket, and 'patched' up Hanna. Though none of the real 'patching' up is shown. He's shown with some unlabeled medicine that he gives to Hanna, but what it does and what it is exactly is never determined or explained. Oh and received a nice bill from his pal Lamont for his 'supplies'. How Lamont gets these, we might never know. Among other things, he's been dirty, disgusting, hilarious and crude. But that's just Worth for you.
It's never explained in the comic, not yet at least, but apparently Worth really dislikes ghosts. Or Hanna doing anything with them. Bad experience perhaps? Most likely, this is Hanna we're talking about.
Personality: To put it bluntly, Worth is an asshole. Or he at least works very hard at keeping that reputation. Not that he needs to. Crude, rude and not afraid to say what he wants when he wants, Worth is not exactly the most friendly human being on the planet. Then again he's not the worst either. He's got a sense of humor that is wicked and sharp, and for the most part goes right along with his crude behavior.
When it comes to friends, or acquaintances, he's much of the same. Though there are hints that he might have a decent bone in his body here and there. One point being when Hanna is brought in after being violently possessed by a ghost, he speaks to {...} about how Hanna is always like that. Always rushing headlong into shit without thinking or worrying about his own health. So he asks {...} to in a sense watch over Hanna and keep him in one piece. If that is humanly possible. But {...} is a zombie so maybe it is. But it shows that Worth does care, to some degree, for people. Though he's rotten at showing it for the most part. Not that he particularly cares.
If anything it seems that being a dick to people he 'cares' for is his way of showing just that. More so shown with his friend Lamont. They go back to their childhood, and it seems that Worth beating the other on a consistent basis is a normal part of said friendship. Hard love is apparently Worth's only way of showing affection, if you want to even call it that.
Beware if this 'good' doctor is bored. You'll most likely become his target for harassment of the dickish kind. Not that he can do any other sort. He seems to get a thrill out of generally pissing people off, especially those who react to it. The more angry and violently the reaction the better. Trying to ignore his goading will most likely just result in him trying harder, and probably a huge headache. Tread lightly and as far away from this man as possible. Unless you need slip shot shoddy doctoring.
Abilities: Sadly douchebaggery is not an ability, but he's super good at it, other than that he's human and can't do anything super amazing. Unless you count being a "doctor" an ability.
Sample Entry:
Yer stupid hair scares children.
[Worth grumbles, disgruntled. He's in his "office" after being informed by one of the nurses that they'd gotten another complaint that his appearance had frightened some poor woman's child. Boo hoo. Like he cared. They wanted him to shave and clean up nice or something before coming to work next time... they were lucky he even came to work.]
Fuckin' beehive looks like it could eat all the damn whiny shits that come in 'ere.
[He's talking to no one, just complaining out loud while he lights a cigarette, thank God they couldn't bitch at him for smoking in here. Everyone fucking smoked everywhere in the 50's. Not like he'd listen even if they told him not to.]
Hn.
[He nudges his office door open with a foot, leaning back in his chair to shout out the door at the receptionist.]
Shake yer bees-nest at 'em! If they don't run screamin' and cryin' then I'll take that little bastard next!
[To which he could see a waiting room full of wide eye'd indignant looking mothers, hands clapped over young children's ears. The receptionist didn't look too pleased either. With a grin he kicked the door shut, plucking his cigarette from his mouth to blow a cloud of smoke above his face. Fuck he hated this job.]
