Kendrich/Quotes
Quote: "Inside this city we are safe, not because civilization is our natural state but because men and women fight for it every day. We all struggle to see our better angels shine through. It is up to each and every one of us to do our part, from the most to the least, we are in this together."
Fame 3: Local Hero. A 20+ year veteran of the city police department. He was a member of the city boarder patrol for over 10 years braving the ravages of he desert, fighting raiders, saving kidnap victims like Cynthia Yamon, a 16 year old girl who was kidnapped and held for ransom by a gang of border rats. He was also well known for saving the lives of 5 officers trapped under heavy fire by throwing the driver out of the city's armored door buster, leading a team of 6 men he drove it off the upper deck of the parking garage next door to the shoot out and right through the roof of the drug den the officers were trapped in. Having an armored location to attack the gang from behind they caught the criminals in a cross fire and put an end to the cartel once and for all.
His record for brutal efficiency earned him a reputation for being feared and respected in the community. He was once brought up on charges of drug smuggling until fellow officers on the force worked together to find the evidence to prove that the drugs found in his patrol jeep was planted there. When exposed the dirty cop behind the frame up, one Officer Gregor Tanivich confessed that he wanted Kendrich to lose everything because they wanted the same woman. Tanivich was fired and sentenced to 5 years in jail. No one really kept track of what happened to him after that.
Kendrich was at one time married to a lovely woman named Ju Yin and together they owned a small drinking establishment that catered almost exclusively to off duty police staff known as The Officer's Club. This establishment was firebombed in 2010 killing his wife and 4 off duty police officers. A recorded message arrived at police headquarters two days later claiming responsibility and saying this was only the first of several attacks planned in the name of a radical Islamic militant cell calling itself the The Light's Warriors.
Two years later the leaders of The Light's Warriors group were captured in New York and sentenced to life in prison, without parole. It is believed that the members of the local cell have all fled the city or been captured under the leadership of Kendrich. Some claim that this personal attack has left him and the police force with an anti-Islamic agenda but no charges of discrimination have ever been successfully proven against anyone in the P.P.D.
