Sean Out Of The Box for Tenikoff
Tenikoff is a dedicated cop who works in the slum area of Dockerton. He is idealistic and driven by the desire to bring order to back to the streets. Having grown up in Dockerton, he has formed an emotional attachment to the area and while most cops have given up on trying to make a difference, Tenikoff still believes he has the power to bring about change. Being idealistic, he is incorruptible and one of the few cops who refuses to take bribes. Although Tenikoff has not met with much success on his crusade, he is driven and won’t give up, and plans to work his way up the chain of organised crime until he can topple even the most powerful ganglords.
Voice is medium to low pitch.
(Nostalgic as he talks about the beauty he finds in the slum area of Dockerton) “Anyone who thinks that way has never climbed the old Crosstown Bridge at the harbour and watched the freighters come in at twilight. They've never heard the pump crews singing old folk songs as they trudge home from a shift. Midtown and Highgate City? The beauty there is only skin deep. Down here, there’s a heart.”
(Vehement, somewhat offended as he rejects the idea of taking a bribe) “Who do you think I am, Rust? One of those Highgate City rent-a-cops? I grew up right here on these streets. I’m a Dockerton kid, and I know what it’s like to have no one on my side. I didn’t take this job to line my pockets. I did it to change things around here.”
(Shouting, busting in as he makes a raid) “Down! Put the weapons down!”
Ad-libed a bit on the second take btw. I am indeed literate.
Thanks, much appreciated :)
