## Biography

James Michael Miller was born March 3rd, 1975 in Liberty City. His comes from a long line of military personnel, with nearly every male on his father's side having served with honor. Miller's own father was a Captain in the Marine Corps who had served in the Vietnam War. James' mother on the other hand, is a Polish immigrant who had came to America during the Second World War.

While James was growing up, his father was still serving as a Marine Corps Captain, which resulted in James spending countless hours attending military events. To his father's amusement, however, James throughly enjoyed them. Eventually, during James' pre-teens, he decided he wanted to follow a similar path to his fathers and joined the cadets. James spent most of his teen years doing military activities and training but when the time came to enlist, he decided he wanted to step back and start slowly. This led James to join the LCPD.

While at the LCPD, James was a remarkable officer who effortlessly soared through the ranks in his career. Within a few years, he was promoted to Detective. A couple years, at the ripe age of 24 later James decided it was time to enlist in the Army. After the walk through the park that was basic training, James was shipped off to the Middle East where he spent several years as a notable and highly skilled sniper.

After spending a little over a decade in the Army, thriving and rising through the ranks, Miller retired. Although retired, Miller didn't want to put his skills to waste by lying around all the time so he began working at the Federal Investigation Bureau where he continues to work to this day.

## Personality

Generally, James has a mild happy-go-lucky personality. He frequently makes jokes, and occasionally acts in a silly, almost childish manner. On the job, he tends to adopt a more serious, professional attitude, although his cheeky side occasionally slips through. Furthermore, Miller shows a preference for the old school. He generally despises new age innovations, feeling that technology dehumanizes everything. He hates cappuccinos and refers to it as "foamy crap" and not actual coffee, only drinking his coffee black. He hates tea as well.

Despite Miller spending most of his working life around firearms, he dislikes having to kill another human being and it remains a sensitive topic for him. His past as a marine still haunts him emotionally. His choice to become an FIB agent and his dedication for seeking justice for victims was his way of paying penance. Additionally, Miller adopts a simple view on life and his morals. Miller sees the world and morality in black and white. He draws the line between the "good guys" and "bad guys" and has the mentality that "life is about taking sides". However, this is likely due in part to his upbringing and his mother's involvement in fleeing the Second World War.

In addition to this mentality, Miller is a patriot and has a strong sense of duty to his country and job, likely due to his father's service and his own. Some has described him as "someone who wants to keep honor and responsibility alive". Miller relies on his faith in the government to keep his sanity intact having killed many people on government orders as a marine. He has occasionally been called a due "stereotypical american" because of this mentality and outlook on life and morality.
