Well there's been quite the influx of new characters and I'm afraid I've got one more to add to that pile. Oops?
Robert Castle (not born with that last name), half bro of Pella, grew up pretty normal, became a Marine, some shit went down and his family was killed. Cue punisher vengeance mission. Which he succeeded at. So...now he doesn't have a specific mission, he's sort of floating around looking for people to punish. He's a good Punisher, but just not cut out mentally for it as a long term thing. He's not happy but he's got no other life to go to at this point.
And here in the story our lovely charming (ha) heroine Pella appears. His newly discovered half-sister is in a bind and he's going to be part of the Steven plot by helping her out on that front. After that's all done, she convinces him to come back with her. Try out the non-punisher life and having family. Well he's not enjoying the lifestyle he has and he hasn't had family in ages...so he's going to try out the normal life.
So to everyone in the community he'll be a long lost brother that's a veteran and crashing on Pella's couch while he gets back on his feet. The Punisher stuff isn't going to be public knowledge (though the people close to Pella have a good chance of knowing/guessing). If you ask him what he's done since the army he'll just say 'security consultation'.
Oh yes and in his years as the Punisher he travelled around the country tracking down people, so he might have run into a vigilante or agent type here and there. Not many but who knows. Anyway, he's a straightforward dude, and his humour (if you can call it that) is a bit blunt (and it doesn't usually work because everyone's so used to him being straightforward that it takes a moment to realize when he's trying to joke). He's never been a guy that really 'clicked' with people, but he's usually managed to get to a point of mutual respect at least. Though he's been pretty on his own for his Punisher years, which is weird for someone who grew up in a crowded house and then joined the army. The isolation gets to you a bit, and he does actually want to talk to people. He's not the best at it but that's a separate issue (and his sister will probably send him out to socialize and be normalish, call it anti-skull therapy).
So yes! Jo, I think I owe you some kind of thing to establish they've just met and are teaming up because two castles are better than one. Also better than barns.
Kait, games of Sorry? For bonding down the line. (not sorry)
So if you've got anything, throw it this way (I realize he's not going to connections with many characters, and that's cool don't worry).
(omg this got long)
