== History == | |||
{{Quote|He may be new to the job, but Officer Lazarus Jones of the Detroit Police Department, is in for a really tough first day. Alongside his senior officer, Anna Steele, he is about to find himself caught up in a terrifying case where the supernatural becomes reality.|Game Booklet Description}} | |||
=== ''Ghosthunter'' === | |||
Soon after joining the Detroid Police Department, Lazarus is partnered with Anna Steele and together they investigate the [[Montsaye High School]] that occurred two years prior, in which ten students were killed. | |||
== Appearance == | |||
Lazarus is a caucasian male with blue eyes, dark brown spiked hair and pale skin. He has a scar across his right eyebrow. He wears a white shirt open at the collar with a black tie and a police badge attached to the right breast, as well as blue bootcut jeans and brown sneakers with white stripes and soles. He also has a shoulder holster for his [[Glock 17]]. After becoming a Ghosthunter, his clothing consists of an additional black leather jacket with red stripes, yellow details and belts, and attached communicator. He also attaches several holsters for his [[Shotgun]] and Grenade to his jeans and wears a pair of Spectral Goggles on his head. | |||
== Personality == | |||
Lazarus is a cheerful, humorous character with a casual, informal manner of speech and frequently swears, particularly when upset. He is both curious and impulsive, shown particularly when he first enters Montsaye High School and pushes a button on the Array, releasing all the ghosts trapped within. He is fairly emotional, disliking being forced to become a Ghosthunter and is disturbed by the ghosts, but quickly adapts and focuses on both the mission of recapturing them and the bigger picture of stopping [[Sir William Hawksmoor|Hawksmoor]]. His humour often turns sarcastic, but he is very caring individual (such as when he is determined to rescue Steele, is unsure about recapturing the ghosts aboard [[HMS Victoria]] as they still retain their humanity and when he returns a teddy bear to a girl ghost in [[Devil's Scar Penitentiary]] in order to help her rest. He is also flirtatious - he wolf-whistles at a pin-up poster of a woman in a bikini - and doesn't seem to take Steele's initial attitude towards him all that seriously, insisting to himself that she does actually like him. Despite this playful nature, he appeared a little unnerved by [[Lady De Montford|Lady de Montford's]] response to him showing up in her home unannounced. | |||
== Abilities == | |||
=== Supranormal Sight === | |||
This gives Lazarus the ability to see ghosts - the result of [[Kate Heller|Astral]] fusing with him when he released the ghosts from the [[Array]]. | |||

== Etymology == | |||
''Lazarus'' is a Latin form of Λάζαρος (Lazaros), a Greek form of Eleazar, which is used in the New Testament. Lazarus was a man from Bethany, the brother of Mary and Martha, who was restored to life by Jesus. ''Jones'' comes from the given name Jon, a mediaeval variant of John. John is an English form of Iohannes, the Latin form of the Greek name Ἰωάννης (Ioannes), derived from the Hebrew name יוֹחָנָן (Yochanan) meaning "Yahweh is gracious". | |||
== Quote == | |||
* "First time I get stuck with one of Charlies Angels, Jane Bond! Great.." | |||
* "You mean I just waded through half a mile of shit for nothing?" | |||
* "Listen - my name's Lazarus Jones. Call me that!" | |||
* “There was a girl next door when I was seventeen - made me do exactly the same thing. Never go back.” | |||
== Trivia == | |||
* Lazarus’ design is based on Brad Pitt, which can be seen in his concept art, although the final design has been toned down. | |||
* Lazarus may come from Kalamazoo, Michigan, based on dialogue in-game from [Anna Steele]: “Montsaye High? Two years ago, the Detroit School murders? Made the nationals ‒ you probably didn’t get it in the Kalamazoo Gazette.” | |||
