Full Name: Nolan Matheson
Age: 42
Civilian or Special: Special
Brief Power Description (if applicable): Truth Induction - The ability to compel a truthful response to a question purely by willpower. Degree of success is dependant on the mind of the target.
Brief Description of Character(this should include personality and appearance): Standing at 175cm (5'9"), Nolan is a calm, methodical man who endeavours to do his job by the book wherever possible. While maintaining a professional demeanour when on-duty, his sense of humour seems unhindered, bordering on the mischievous at times (using his ability on his partner Dean to watch the younger agent squirm and to teach him a lesson in the process, for example) which - in comparison to his emotional traits - could come across as slightly immature but, for those who know him, he's just a career-minded man who likes to have fun now and again.
Dedicated to his career, he always wears a clean business suit when on-duty and, despite his head of brown hair beginning to recede with age, he takes pride in maintaining a professional appearance, though far from the point of being vain.
Brief Description of History: With his father being a detective in the NYPD, it wasn't long before Nolan followed in his footsteps and, after completing his training, he became a fully-fledged police officer. Before long, people began to comment on how Nolan was somehow able to convince apprehended criminals to be forthcoming with information, succeeding where even the veteran interrogators had failed.
For years, he had passed it off as his inviting, yet calm nature but, like many escapades involving evolved humans with all manner of abilities, the Company knew better and, shortly after Nolan passed his Detective exam in December of 1982, they made their move, presenting him with an appealing offer. As an officer of the law, the Company hoped that Nolan would be capable of listening to reason.... and they were right.
Despite regretting the fact that his father had never known the truth of his son's new job before his death (the cover story was that he was working for the FBI as an investigative consultant), Nolan continued to remain professional to the present day, always putting his work first and keeping it seperate from his personal life at all times.
