Background/History:
A former Navy SEAL, Wallace won the Congressional Medal of Honor at some point (one presumes in Vietnam). Now, he lives in Basin City, working as an artist (he paints), but usually paying his rent as a short-order cook. While out driving around (and trying to clear his head), he sees a woman (Esther) throw herself off of a cliff and into the water. He rescues her, only to have her taken from him by some of the Colonel's men. Recovering from the attack, Wallace then proceeds to work his way "up the food chain," eliminating anyone who tries to stop him. Eventually, he rescues Esther a second time, and then abandons Sin City (with Esther) for a more pleasant place to live.
Personality/Motivation:
Wallace is an interesting guy. Unlike the rest of Miller's anti-heroes in Sin City, Wallace is a man at peace with himself. He doesn't have any dark secrets or hidden demons, and is quite capable of ignoring Delia's charms. He also doesn't go out of his way to enter into violence, often giving a warning to an opponent to back off, but once pressed is capable of wrecking utter havoc.
At all times Wallace is unerringly polite, usually using "Ma'am" when talking to women, and never swearing. He tires to remain calm at all times, probably because he is capable of such extreme violence, and tends to be analytical about things, doing what needs to be done but not overdoing it. He will flee is outnumbered, but will not give up or surrender if he can help it.
Quotes:
"Your nose is broken. Your jaw's next. It's up to you."
"You'll see me again. I'm going to kill everyone of you."
Powers/Tactics:
Where to start? Basically, Wallace is a one-man army. He is almost certainly Miho's equal in hand-to-hand combat (His combat stats are basically her combat stats.), and is quite capable with guns as well. He virtually annihilates the Colonel's forces in the battle at the factory where the slavery operation was held, killing something like 20 guards (or more) before being forced to flee. He also trashes four Basin City police in mere moments, beats up Manute (join the club...), kills a sniper simply by targeting flashes from the man's scope, and one-shots Mariah. In my opinion he is the most combat effective character in the Sin City universe, even more so than Miho (which is saying something). And I might have under estimated his prowess. He might have Danger Sense and Defense Maneuver, you can add these if you wish, I wasn't certain (and they would be in line with his combat skills). Wallenquist says it best: "...pray we never see his like again."
Wallace's levelheaded personality is also expressed in his Resistance (Delia calls him a monk), and his meditation tricks to achieve a sense of calm when things are bad. By retreating to his "secret place," he can review his memory, and bring back things he'd forgotten or that weren't clear at the time he experienced them.
Appearance:
Wallace looks to be around 5'10" to 6' tall. He has a lean, muscular build, long black hair, and a close-trimmed beard and mustache. His mode of normal dress is a black shirt, black jeans, sneakers, and an ankle-length coat.
