O'Toole is a former bank robber and went to prison. He is good-hearted and believes in something; he's not just a gangster.

O'Toole is a former member of the Irish Republican Army. Even though he was against the Free State and fought their soldiers for a time, he has left the old country now. He had to find a way of protecting his family, after his father's death at the hands of the Black & Tans. He had to find a way of paying for her mother's operation, and where else can you find easy money than in the USA?

It didn't take long to O'Toole to understand how things work down on the East Coast. We all know the story; he became a bank robber, was arrested, imprisoned and became friends with Brad Hollins. His mother died while he was in prison but after Brad bursted into flames, he got a new purpose: understanding what happened to him, what is beyond the veil. He still knows how to use dynamite and still has his trusty Thompson, of course, his legacy as a former IRA member.

Playstyle:

Find money (Investments, Lone Wolf, Emergency Cache or "Watch this!" - especially with Double or Nothing), spend it on your ability to run from one place to another. Dynamite Blast works great with Skids, since he can move with monsters engaged with On the Lam, put them all in one place, use Elusive to move to a connecting place and blow them all to pieces.

I didn't add Well Connected, Money Talks or Cunning for two reasons. First, it is not thematic. Second, Skids is not supposed to accumulate money, he's supposed to spend it. He'd rather buy a .45 Thompson or hire Leo De Luca, or even pay for Intel Report.

One of the most important upgrades you have to make is Streetwise, probably.
