Backstory
Slicks McGee is one cool cat. Playing in nightclubs all over the city, he claims to have created a new sort of jazz - combining his trumpet skills with heavy industrial sounds of pounding cogs and the din of the underworld's failed dreams. The ethereal screams devolve into frenzied toots meaningless as the void of a gin-soaked and septic liver. Well, that is what he creates at home, as all he generally does is play the drone in the hidden speakeasies to make a little coin. His personal stylinngs are entirely based in Italo Disco, high waisted pats, gaudy wristwatches, pink socks and ugly ties.

Where did his life start? How did it wind up here? Well, honestly, he had it quite nice as a child - after all, his parents had more than enough cash to send him to the best schools and pay for private music lesson from the time he was 2 years old. Something about metal just always drew him to brass instruments - and he is an expert in all. Saxophone, horn, cornet, trumpet - he can improvise a tune any on of them that would make you think he had dedicated his life that particular one. The single child was spoiled beyond belief and always loved the nightlife.

But, tragedy caught up to the McGee family eventually - one night mobsters did a hit on his parents as he was trying to clean away any internal wounds with some brandy in a dive. He was 19 at the time, he inherited all of that wealth. Fortunately for our slickster, he realized that dumping his dad's bonds all at once and living a low profile life in a small apartment would provide him with more than enough cash to live at the rest of his days happily in booze filled delusions. His low profile and being constantly in the dumpiest jazz clubs betrays the fact that he is rich beyond your wildest dreams and actually high class. Fortunately for Slicks, it doesn't seem anyone has caught on yet and that is just fine by his standards. Besides, his "music career" technically pays enough to be able to afford a crummy place like his, so it's not like anyone would suspect anything different. How old is he actually now? Dunno, early 30s probably or somewhere in there and he probably won't stop drifting anytime soon.

His trusty "Big Alto" trumpet is always in hand - and it's more than just his means of living in the shady underworld. It has also has a hidden revolver, all that is needed to become fully functional is to slide the trigger and the stock in place and BLAM. He has learned that having some sort of firearm on hand is always a good idea. Besides that, he generally always has some brass knuckles that read "Mr. Poppa", a lockpicking set and some matches. Not that he smokes or has any use for that stuff, but he always finds himself around people that seem to need that. Old Slicks has it pretty nice, truth be told.
