Thomas Anchorage is a character role-played by Noir_PI.
Background
Anchorage was born on November 4, 1998 in Uptown Liberty City. His parents were Mathew Anchorage, the CEO of a technology enterprise and Melissa Parker-Anchorage, a news anchor. His father Scottish and mother American. During his teens, he witnessed several crimes ranging from robberies to murder - including his own mother, who was robbed and shot in his early teens. Since then, he has despised criminals and has vowed to make the world a better place by helping cleanse the city of them.
He was raised in Liberty City before he set out on his own, never one to take any handouts, he earned every penny himself until he could afford to move to Los Santos, a city filled with criminal scum and opportunity. He became a News Reporter for Weazel News so he could get a scoop on the most crime filled sections of the city and get to know the residents of the city. This has helped him figure out where the best places to scout for crime is at night, when he dawns the mask and becomes the Purple Punisher to fight crime.
Personality
Thomas Anchorage, under the name Thomas Normady, can usually be found during the day on the search for news, he does his best to be kind to strangers and is usually cheerful, willing to help where he can. He's also very careless with his money, whenever he finds someone "in need", he'll give them money - this has included the time where he called Whitley Booth a pirate and offended him - compensating him by giving him $100. He's also given money to people he's gotten into car crashes with, and tends to tip everyone who serves him in customer service, Thomas doesn't like to hold onto his money and prefers that people who need it more get this money.
Occasionally during the night, he almost becomes a completely different person and dresses head-to-toe in home made purple armor including night vision goggles. The Purple Punisher. He doesn't speak to anyone who talks to him, doesn't carry his citizen ID and communicates through gestures and notes to avoid compromising his identity. He's not a very good fighter, but he carries melee weapons and is willing to attack anyone he suspects of being a criminal - he knows this is a dangerous lifestyle, and surrenders when held at gunpoint, but he doesn't stop because he wants the city to be cleansed of these criminals.
