James Haze/3.0

James Haze is a character role-played by madbush.
==General Description==
James "Jim" Haze is a Swiss-born man who has lived in the city of Los Santos for many years now. With a huge knowledge of the law, James was one of the longest and most active senior attorneys in the city until he retired. Outside of law, James is the owner of Greener Pastures, co-owner and CFO of UwU Café, partial owner of Sinful Exotics and also the owner of the Law Firm, Canis Minor. He is also further involved in many businesses in Los Santos. Outside of business, James is often seen enjoying his secret passion for street racing as a member of Yokai. Typically, James can be seen wearing his signature black bowler hat, though recently he has begun to wear this less and less. 
==Life in Los Santos==
=== 2021-2022 ===
James moved to the city of Los Santos in March 2021 and began working on joining the law profession. He was eventually successful and after months of work, he become an attorney. Using this to his advantage, James began creating business connections and eventually met Ash Ketchup, who he helped to create UwU Café. He also began creating tight, legally-binding contracts which he used to successfully sue Harry Brown on behalf of the Tuner Shop. With UwU Café up and running, James created his own farming business, Greener Pastures to run alongside it. Towards the end of the year, James was ocean dumped by members of Cerberus after a misunderstanding regarding his ability to continue working with Betta Life Pharmaceuticals. Thankfully he survived, but suffered temporary memory loss as a result. 
Becoming a Lawyer
From March to June 2021, James Haze was working as a Paralegal under Gill Schultz and Reggie Might. He obtained his bar license after participating in a Mock Trial on June 26th 2021. He was playing the part of the Prosecution (together with Arthur MacNee, Alfred Neuman and Alexandra Carlson). For Context, the Defendant, Nicky Vein (played by Antigone Weston) was found guilty of Serial Assault and Killings, First Degree Murder x14, Murder of a Government Employee, Desecration of a Human Corpse and Terrorism.
Life as an Attorney
After gaining his state bar license and becoming a junior attorney, James strove to work as hard as he could. Having a keen understanding of mathematics alongside his ability to write very professional contracts, James quickly gained several employments. Around this time he was approached by Ash Ketchup to become the lawyer for her new business venture UwU Café. James also joined the team at the Tuner Shop, creating an extremely tight sales contract. This contract would prove his worth to the business when Harry Brown breached it. James, and the Tuner Shop, took him to court and easily won. Harry Brown, therefore, had to hand his car back to the Tuner Shop as well as 50% of the value of the car. With a successful win, James used the money earned from the court case to buy a house in Chumash.
Founding Greener Pastures	 	 	 	
In November 2021, James Haze, now co-owner and CFO of UwU Café, welcomed the opening of a physical location on the Korean Plaza in Little Seoul. The business became extremely popular and quickly became the most successful restaurant in Los Santos. During the next few months, James' main focus moved into farming where he began supplying UwU Café, and other businesses in Los Santos, with a variety of fruits, vegetables, grains and oils. With this, James founded Greener Pastures and hired Arthuro LeBlank as his CEO. In June 2022, Greener Pastures also gained a physical storefront on the Korean Plaza in Little Seoul.

James' 1st Ocean Dumping
In December 2021, James was out on the hunt for new varieties of tomatoes when he received a phone call to meet up at Clean Manor with Raymond Romanov and other members of Betta Life Pharmaceuticals. At the time, James was the lawyer for the company. However, after being informed that Dean Watson would be joining the business, James decided to leave the business due to conflict (James at the time had suspicions that Dean had killed his close friend and business partner Robert Locksley).
Misunderstanding the situation, Raymond, Dean and Harry Brown forced James into the boot of their car, drove him to Dean's boat and sailed out into the sea. The group then proceeded to dump James' body in the ocean and later that day he washed ashore in Chumash. His memory had reset back to when he was a paralegal and he had lost his hat and seeds. Over the next few days, with help from Reggie Might, Sherry Paie, Tidus Schwinghammer and Anna Swallows, James was able to gain back almost all of his memories (the only thing he forgot about was all of the work he did for Betta Life Pharmaceuticals).
In March 2022, whilst working at the Dennis LaBarre City Hall, Reggie Might overheard Raymond talking about the time he ocean-dumped James. James, who was too deep in work to hear, was swiftly told by Reggie that it was Raymond who did the deed.
=== 2022-2023 ===
James had a great start to 2022 when he was once again ocean dumped by members of Cerberus, this time after being shot by Lang Buddha when a meeting about purchasing Burger Shot took an unfortunate turn. Eddie Marshall and Mary Mushkin soon after caused James to sigh when they both were arrested and the Tuner Shop was raided. He used his law knowledge to battle against Kyle Pred and Brian Knight in the interrogation room and eventually get both of his clients free. Outside of law, his friendship began to bloom with Seaside to the point where he requested to join. However, after months of waiting and internal affairs brewing, James decided to not pursue this further and instead put his effort into racing. Eventually, he approached Mary Mushkin, the leader of Yokai, about joining the street-racing crew. She accepted and Shingiin was created.
James' 2nd Ocean Dumping
Towards the end of March 2022, James was asked by Shelly Smith to help her with a contract relating to Burger Shot. Shelly was hoping to try and get Burger Shot out of Cerberus's hands so enlisted James to write up a contract to purchase it. In the end, negotiations went badly and Lang Buddha shot James. Lang made Mickey S get rid of the body and, with the help of Marty Banks, the pair rented a plane and dropped James' body into the ocean.
Thankfully, before the meeting, James had informed Sherry Paie about the audience with Cerberus. Sherry, with help from Jessica Hilton and Jenny Hall, was able to rescue him from the ocean.
Is My Client Free to Go?
In April 2022, James' loyalty to Mary Mushkin and Eddie Marshall was proven after the Tuner Shop was raided and the pair were taken into police custody. James was called to represent them both in the cells. He arrived at Davis Police Department with his acting paralegal at the time, Isabella Carrington. Police officers Kyle Pred and Brian Knight individually interrogated the pair however, James told Mary and Eddie to stay quiet whilst he repeated "Are my clients free to go?". In the end, the pair were both sent up on 24-hour holds, which proved fruitless for the PD and both were released from Bolingbroke Penitentiary.
After these events, Eddie trusted James to hold on to the 'Titanium' racing dongle, which James kept in a deposit box in Bay City Bank.
Is the Sea Calling?
With James' already close friendship with Ash Ketchup, and having created Oasis with her, Benji Ramos and Karl Johnny Black, James began to grow close to the gang, Seaside. Over the months of friendship, many of the members became retrained clients of James, with members Cora Star and Nicholas Simone, in particular, requesting his help. In August 2022, James decided to take this a step further and request to join Seaside. They did not give a solid answer and for the next 2 months, James was left in the dark about whether or not he could join the gang.
In October 2022, Ash announced she was leaving Seaside and James decided, after consulting both sides of the situation, to not pursue joining the gang. With Ash leaving Seaside and cutting all ties with the gang, Oasis was disbanded and all 4 owners were paid out.
Joining Yokai
Towards the end of December 2022, James began to move close to Mary Mushkin and Yokai. He took part in races alongside other Yokai members and attended meetings, becoming a close associate of the racing crew. When, a previous paralegal of James' and Yokai member, Isabella Carrington was shot down by the Unified Police Department/3.0 during a boost gone wrong, James visited her regularly in the hospital and eventually became her Power of Attorney. He grew closer to Izzy and even helped her leave police custody and return to her home. Not long after these moments, in January 2023, Mary gifted James his own Yokai katana. A few days later at a Yokai BBQ, James pulled Mary aside and asked if he could officially join the racing crew. Mary, without a second thought, accepted him into the family.
=== 2023-2024 ===
After the new year, James began to take on more of a leadership role within Yokai, allowing him to organise events such as the Fox Hunts as well as take on a mikomi of his own. James also began to show his association with Yokai more publicly by wearing his thermal katana and other gear around the city while remaining a law-abiding attorney. This display made James a target by certain PD members who wanted to have him disbarred, however, this public association allowed James to be a go-between when an officer decided to illegally return a racing dongle to Mary Mushkin that had been confiscated in a raid. 
The criminal charges he faced from this, as well as the declining state of the DOJ, began to wear heavily on James' demeanour as an attorney, leading him to set plans in motion for retirement from the law. Before retiring, he became the legal advisor for Mayor Sexton Cohen. He also had an important meeting with Yeager Demonblood. Using his business and law backgrounds, he established two new businesses, Sinful Exotics and Canis Minor. At the end of the mayoral term, James finally took the leap and turned in his bar license, ready to begin a new life free from the constraints of being an attorney. After leaving the Department of Justice, James began engaging with more powerful individuals in the city and even helped boost Greener Pastures by getting the business some local farm plots. Yokai began to show cracks as well, with several members of the racing crew leaving, which brought other members' loyalties into question. To help bring the group back together, James decided to organise the 3rd Fox Hunt. In the last part of 2023, James created some tasks for various Yokai members to help push them towards promotion. Towards the end of the year, James decided to leave the city of Los Santos. 
The 1st Yokai Fox Hunt
In early February 2023, James organised the 1st Yokai Fox Hunt, an event for all Yokai members to take part in wherein teams chased one member. Mary Mushkin took the role of the "Fox" whilst other members tried to catch her. Unfortunately for the teams, Mary was successful in evading for 2 hours so won $1,400,000. Each team got $150,000 to help pay for repair bills and such. The event was extremely fun for all with only Joaquin Jimenes being caught and sent to jail. All prize money was paid for out of James' own pocket.
The BigM Dongle
In February, when Mary Mushkin got raided for shooting an RPG towards the police, Sexton Hardcastle stole the BigM racing dongle out of evidence and later handed it to James Haze outside of MRPD. James, realising the possibility of a future raid, cleaned out his properties and stashed the dongle in his Swiss Street Apartment. 
In March, whilst James was refuelling his car, Brian Knight approached him and invited him down to the MRPD for questioning. Now seated back in his car, he declined to go in for questioning. After a back and forth, Brian told James he was detained for questioning and if he refused he would be put on a 24-hour hold. James was brought in for interrogation where he told Brian he would willingly give the dongle back if they could go together and get it. Brian decided to get a raid warrant and raided him to retrieve the dongle. At the start of April, Hardcastle was finally charged with Evidence Tampering and Felony Obstruction of Justice. James then received a warrant for his arrest with the same charges. He tried to contact Brian but Brian rejected his call several times. In the end, James was given a bench trial with Siobhan Fitzpatrick but she decided to mistrial this and advised it to be pushed to the docket. Brian said he was going to get rid of the warrant for James but, days after he still had the warrant. 
Eventually right before the Statute of Limitations for the case was over, Mustafa Mahmoud posted the case on the docket where James promptly replied with 12 various motions. This sat on the docket until mid-June when a pre-trial hearing was scheduled with Siobhan Fitzpatrick as judge. However, this ended up being cancelled and rescheduled. When the hearing finally occurred, James went through his 12 motions. Unfortunately, most of these motions were declined so Haze requested a summary judgement. This was accepted and Fitzpatrick stated she would contact everyone once she came to a decision on the case. After a week or so, Fitzpatrick ruled that James was cleared of all charges and, in celebration, James twatted out and told all of Yokai on their radio.
The 2nd Yokai Fox Hunt
In early May, James started to make preparations for the 2nd Fox Hunt. He, as Shingiin, began by officially offering Isabella Long the role of the Fox in the Fox Hunt. After 2 hours of hunting, in the very last few seconds, Patrick Tuna successfully cuffed Izzy and won a total of 2 million for his team. They decided to donate 50k of this amount to each of the players in the game.
James' New Mikomi
At the end of May, James decided that he wanted to bring Kate Myles into Yokai as his Mikomi. On the day in question, James took her all around the city, discussing their history in South America and Los Santos. He ended by taking her to The Speedtrap where other members of Yokai were waiting for them both. James asked Kate if she would like to join Yokai as his Mikomi and she accepted the offer. They celebrated Kate joining Yokai with a race, Yokai Blacklist.
Establishing Sinful Exotics
James, who was trying to take a break from court cases, decided to venture into business and teamed up with fellow Yokai member, Violet Snowe, to start a car rental business. Together, they established Sinful Exotics in mid-June. Mary Mushkin soon after joined as a co-owner, with each member having a 1/3 ownership stake. Patrick Tuna also came on board as the company's COO. During the next few weeks, conversations were had with various members of the PD, relating to Sinful Exotics, including Jackie Snow, Brittany Angel, the late Sam Baas and Oliver Fury. All of these individuals, excluding Baas, were very positive about the idea of the car rental company.
Meeting with a Demon
A week or so before James was due to hand in his bar license, he set up a meeting with Kayn Larp (Yeager Demonblood), who pinged him to a location. James began by informing Yeager that he will be handing his bar license in soon. The pair had a lengthy discussion with many topics including Brian Knight and Lang Buddha's relationship, AEGIS and Cerberus. Yeager also pushed James to talk about what he knows about people getting RPGs from Sanguine Isle. James reluctantly explained that Capped Tarranova (Pigeon) had let it slip to him where he could get them from. Yeager promised James that he would make sure that Pigeon would not go after James for this information, with James saying that if he did he would shoot Pigeon in the face. They ended the conversation with Yeager saying that James is one of the best lawyers in the city and saying he trusts him.
Forming Canis Minor
Just before James was about to hand in his bar license, he decided to create his very own law firm so that he could continue to support his criminal associates without having his bar license. As such, he created Canis Minor. At some point James brought his previous paralegal, now junior attorney Grace Daniels, to work under him.
Retiring From Law
On the 29th of July 2023, over two years after becoming a paralegal for Gill Schultz and Reggie Might, James went to the courthouse to hand in his bar licence and end his life as a senior attorney. Not able to find any judges, he approached the front desk and left a note addressed to Judge Nathaniel Greyson, which contained his state bar licence. Before he left, he coined a twat explaining to the city of Los Santos that people need to "lawyer up". With his twat sent out, he dabbed and walked out of the courthouse into the rain.
Enjoying His Freedom
For the month of August, even after leaving the law profession, James was still kept rather busy. With no fear of losing his bar licence, he began to engage in more street races, specifically races that would run through the city. James also continued to have important meetings, notably with both Kayn Larp and Nicholas Simone, where he shared and gained information from the pair. He further, as the President of Bay City Bank, gave Terrance Walker the opportunity to put some possessions into a deposit box in the bank for safekeeping.
 At the end of August, James had another meeting with TJ. After the recent invasion of the Sanguine Isle, he was held for treason after aiding the island. James and TJ discussed the matter and shared information about various war crimes that had been committed. James explained that if TJ needed anything from him, he was there to help and supply him, later calling him on his burner phone and explaining to contact him through that when needed.
 Not relating to the previous meeting, James also met with Karl Johnny Black in the garden of the Yokai house. The pair first discussed the recent invasion and then the conversation turned to the pair's favourite topic, business. James, who had recently talked to Nicholas Simone about selling burner phones that Nick would supply him, discussed the burner phone market with KJ, who also sold them but for a different party. The pair agreed to sell at the same value and to work together where possible.
Loyalties are Tested
September 2023 shocked James and the rest of Yokai as Isabella Long decided that the racing crew was no longer for her. After a meeting with Mary Mushkin, she was shot and her body ocean dumped, essentially blooded out of the crew. She barely survived the incident. This incident also contributed to Wade Wilson's decision to leave the crew. 
James was informed of these events by Mayumi Himura, with James not too fussed with Wade leaving but unhappy with Izzy's decisions. During this interaction, he questioned May's actions and further explained his exasperation with not being informed of important things and being kept in the dark. May promised to try to keep him informed and requested that he meet with Mary. James and Mary met straight after the previous conversation, with James asking Mary about how she was feeling. Mary claimed to not have emotions and kept making jokes about the distant future, with the pair claiming James would be Mary's sidekick in a floating fish tank. The pair spoke for a long time, eventually ending in a hug.
Later the same week, a Yokai meeting was announced for that weekend. The day before this, Finlay Aiken, claiming to have found out the news from a mikomi, met with James, Violet Snowe, Jase Dawson, and later Joaquin Jimenes as well. Finlay appeared agitated about not being informed about what had happened, with James explaining that this is quite often how he feels. During a one-on-one, Finlay questioned him about what he would do if Finlay handed in his Yokai katana. In the end, the group calmed Finlay and explained that any decisions he wanted to make he should make after the meeting. The next day, Mary shared the news of Izzy’s blooding out and opened the floor to ideas and suggestions to help improve the current Yokai. Communication was mentioned as a huge issue, and the group declared they would work hard to stop this from becoming an issue in the future.
The 3rd Yokai Fox Hunt
In early October, James began to plan for the next Yokai Fox Hunt. He first invited a non-Yokai member, Cora Star, and also Sean McQuillen, to the event, giving Cora invites for both of them. He continued this trend of inviting non-Yokai members by personally inviting Vincent Ryker, who, after hearing the prize money was $2,000,000, quickly accepted the invitation and set a reminder on his phone. In the days leading up to the main event, James also reached out to Emberlynn McKale about the event.
The day before the Fox Hunt, James, using a payphone and his Shingiin voice, contacted Capped Tarranova, requesting him to meet at the YoHouse. The pair, as well as Alex Domino, who happened to be around, met in the garden. For this meeting, both members of Yokai dressed in uniform and Capped dressed up as a monk. Shingiin revealed his identity to Capped and then expressed his interest in Capped joining the event. Capped, after hearing Terrance Walker would be on his team, ran around the garden and quickly accepted his offer. However later that day, due to unfortunate circumstances, TJ ended up being sent to prison for 3 years and, as such, would miss the event. 
The 3rd Yokai Fox Hunt began with Violet Snowe playing the role of The Fox. Over the next few hours, she evaded the five hunting teams with many close calls. The event began with all participants meeting in the YoHouse parking lot, where teams showed off their costumes, most notably Team Dumb Dumb and Dumber (Henry Goodman, Wayne Marshall and Vincent Ryker), who came dressed as James Haze himself. The Yokai members and friends then took part in fun side quests while also trying to catch the fox, such as collecting playing tiles from locations of major Yokai events, trick or treating the residents and workers of Los Santos, and a 3-lap relay race of the track Mockingbird. In the end Violet, with the assistance of fellow teammates Mayumi Himura and Oakley Stallion, was able to successfully dodge the hunters and win the 3rd, and possibly final, Yokai Fox Hunt.
Missions for Mikomis
At the end of October, with Yokai in need of components to create more thermal katanas, James began to use his contacts to find the resources needed. He found a source, a person named "Black Market Guy" and organised a meeting to exchange 3 million dollars for the parts needed. James and Axton Lance were to attend this meeting, with Lara VanDusk, Kate Myles and Patrick Tuna acting as protection for Lance. The three were told by James that, regardless of what happened, their priority was to get Lance out. 
After withdrawing the money from Bay City Bank, they all drove up north to meet up for the drop. They met the guy in a shed and the negotiations turned sour when the parts weren't what were agreed upon. In the end, James pulled his gun and told the others to get Lance out. What happened next is unclear, however, shots were fired by both parties and blood was later found back at the YoHouse along with a note written from Shingiin. This note stated that the guy had tried to scam them. Found next to the note were the parts needed to create more thermal katanas.
Later that evening, Terrance Walker received a text from James to meet at his house as soon as possible. Upon arriving, TJ found a bullet-ridden James on the verge of passing out. James explained what had happened earlier that day and asked TJ to remove a bullet from his shoulder. After a lot of pain, several bottles of whisky, some cocaine and a few extra cuts into his shoulder, TJ managed to remove the bullet. James, close to passing out from the pain, showed TJ his emails and told him to look for a TCU schematic by following "call me for a good time". Unsure of what this meant, TJ carried James to his bed where he passed out from the gunshot wounds, with TJ leaving the property to see what he could find.
The next day they met back up at James' house and James showed TJ some information he had gotten from a mystery friend, "V." The information explained that the guy with the TCUs was in town and, if he could get a phone number, they would help trace them. V also explained to check public toilets for this phone number, so they decided to check around some in the city. Unsuccessful, they ventured up north in the hope of finding more public toilets.
After a quick break at The Pit Stop, the pair found another public bathroom and a phone number. TJ called the number and tried to get information but was unsuccessful, so James drove to a payphone and pressed a hidden button, which electrocuted him. After being hurt, he received instructions on where a character named "Ghost" could be found. They found a small shack, and, upon entering, James set off a tripwire. Downstairs in the basement, they snuck up on the guy believed to be Ghost and zip-wired him. They held him up, received the PCB Temperature Control Units needed to create more thermal katanas, and quickly fled the scene.
They then drove to Procyon Medical where they dropped off the TCUs for Lance. TJ then noticed the clone of Mary Mushkin and James gave him a brief summary of her history. He also showed him around the facility and told him more about Yokai's past. The pair left, and TJ dropped James back at his house, with James jokingly asking for more cocaine from him.
Leaving Los Santos for Good?
At the start of December 2023, James made the tough decision to leave the city of Los Santos and return to his previous home of Switzerland. Before he left, he wrote up a marriage contract for the recently married Mary Mushkin and Alex Domino. He also said goodbye to a lot of close friends he had made in the years he had lived there. One such exchange was between James and Chip Wheeler where James gave Chip his katana, which meant a huge amount to him. The pair also exchanged their citizen-state ID cards, so that they could remember each other further, with Chip remarking on how old James was. 
Whilst meeting with a close friend Lara VanDusk, James witnessed Sherry Paie, Karl Johnny Black, Steven Hayes and Mari McKay robbing Bay City Bank, which he was the president of. He exclaimed his disappointment to the group but overall did not care. Lara then hid away in the trunk of a police car, with the cop completely unaware. Later that same day, the pair raced Spirit Valley and afterwards, James gifted Lara his pet rabbit Roger, stating that Roger would not be able to go with him. The pair reminisced about Lara's journey throughout Yokai with her saying that she wouldn't be where she is today without him. They said their final goodbyes and James drove away leaving Lara and Roger the rabbit behind.
Not long after these interactions, James left the city of Los Santos, unsure of whether he would ever return in the future.
