Barry Benson

You Can't Kill What's Already Dead.
Barry Benson is a character role-played by Bazza. 
==General Description==
Barry Benson is the Prime Minister of the Already Dead MC. 
==Overview==
Barry was previously the Prime Minister of the Bondi Boys MC. Five years ago, the Los Santos government enacted a RICO against BBMC due to their increased aggression and criminal activity. Ultimately, Barry got deported back to Australia and put on a No-Fly list for San Andreas. He spent a bit over a year in prison there and then remained there for three years. With a new government in place in San Andreas, Barry found his way back by getting smuggled by boat to look for his family and his beloved dog, Coppa. 
When Barry first returned to the city following his deportation he attempted to keep himself on the straight and narrow having not done crime since he left prison. He instead endeavored to try and make a legal income and tried to convince himself that life was behind him. It inevitably became clear to him in just a week that crime and adrenaline was always where his heart was going to lie. After returning to form, Barry expressed a desire to create an empire in the city and take over on a scale he had never managed in his previous club. He is currently slowly build towards that dream with his new club Already Dead MC. 
==Personality == 
Barry is a loyal, hardworking and confident man who is driven to achieve his goals and is willing to play a little dirty to do it. He has a massive appetite for progression and is always looking forward to his next goal and how he can achieve it. He is also a little bit of an enigma in many ways. Barry can come across very silly and easy going - but this is very much part of his game. Barry is self-admittedly fond of people perceiving him as goofy and friendly as it allows him to charm people and let them take him for granted. Barry is very smart, adept at manipulation and a very good speaker - when he wants to be. Barry is very observant and good at reading peoples behaviors and moods and it makes him a good leader as he knows how best to push people and motivate them. Barry is very good at pulling people in with his humor and friendly banter and tends to be good at saying the right things to people. His Achilles heel is his goldfish memory - unless you have crossed him.
Barry is capable of being vindictive and cruel when crossed. He can switch quickly between funny and light-hearted to cold and calculated and has quite the temper when provoked. He comes across rational and calm in the moment but often holds long grudges that he files away in the back of his head for another day. He can get extremely aggressive and violent when angered, although he still usually tries to resolve things with words and patience to the best of his ability, unless he has been pushed too far. Despite occasionally enjoying his peace and solitude, Barry is also a massive adrenaline junkie and thrill seeker who enjoys police chases, heists and shootouts, another contradiction. He has also been known in the past to satisfy these chaotic urges with heavy drug use and was once a very big cocaine addict. He can become very restless when he doesn't have an outlet for his sometimes boundless energy.
Barry struggles with emotions and tends to do his best to bury them deep down due to past traumas. He is skilled at remaining pragmatic and logical in stressful moments. This has led to some people, who do not know him very well, making the mistake of thinking he has no feelings as a result. On the contrary, Barry actually feels things very strongly and is surprisingly good at reading other peoples feelings, a fact a few of his closest people can attest to. Although he can sometimes appear cold he is warm and encouraging towards people he cares about such as his family, friends and club members. He is also very protective of his loved ones and quick to threaten violence when someone he cares about is hurt.
==Appearance==
Barry has slicked back light brown hair and green eyes. Both of his arms sport full-sleeve tattoos, and he has a goldfish tattooed on the left side of his neck and a surfboard on the right. On his right pec is a shark tattoo and he recently got another shark tattoo on his left pec to match. On his back is a large dragon tattoo. Barry also has a dragon tattoo in UV ink on the back of his neck, with both the original art and the inking courtesy of his father Hubcap Jones. Barry also has a full sleeve on one leg and a half sleeve on the other one.
After being punished by his ex club for breaking a rule by being set on fire, Barry has slight burn marks on both of his cheeks that never properly healed. He has a scar over his left eye after being hit in the face with a crowbar by Stumbles Fumbles.
Barry is known for his sunglasses and his timberland boots and tends to favor very simple outfits. He is often seen sporting Hawaiian shirts (occasionally open as he likes to show off his chest)
