Personality:
He's been described as an introverted extrovert, very guarded around people, keeping them more or less at arm's length till he can size them up. But with someone he's protecting, it's not unusual that he'll let them get close enough that they feel at ease with him, without giving himself away. He tends to be harder on himself emotionally than he is on others: he's aware that his job of hunting monsters has made him into a monster and he's atoning for this as best he can. But if he knows someone has wronged another person, particularly a woman, a child, or someone who's otherwise powerless, he will go Papa Wolf on them. Even in a fight, he's very precise, avoiding wasted shots or blows and needless killing (to quote him in the pilot episode, "I don't particularly *like* killing people, but I'm good at it..."), but he's also known to knee-cap a target before moving in for the kill: it's not clear if this is done out of mercy or to make them twist a little; he can be a bit sadistic (using by messing with people's heads rather than by physical cruelty), but only when the situation calls for a little precision strike nastiness. He's a deadpan snarker most of the time, and he also has a bit of a twisted sense of humour (case in point a moment where he squicks someone out by lovingly describing ...an advanced version of dealing with an attacker by poking them in the eyes).
Underneath this, he is really a very loving, even kind and gentle man, but one has to get past all his defences. He really wants to be a conventional, "normal" person with a less exciting life, but he considers himself too damaged for this to work, and his past is too full of enemies for this to be possible. His trust is very tricky to earn, though, but if someone can succeed, it will be worth the trouble.

History:
Early Life: It is mentioned that Reese's father, an Army soldier, died shortly after returning from his Third Shinobi World War when John was a child. At some point later on, Reese was forced between choosing jail or entering the military because of a violent fight he was involved in as a young man. He opted for the military, and entered the Army shortly thereafter.
Past Life: Nothing is known from this point onwards, until one day Reese shows up in the blue outside the gates of Kiri, it had seemed during his time away he had picked up a lot of tricks. He decided upon himself to take refuge upon the village. Whilst staying in the village, Reese learnt more tricks, things that will help increase his power to fight, as well as getting to know some people.
Reese left Kiri to join a rouge village named Oto the village hidden in the sound. The village was something more his style, something different and a new experience but a few things happened and as soon as it was created it was destroyed, thus turning Reese into a rouge ninja, having no ties anywhere.
Present Life: At one point or another Reese came in contact with a man by the name of Chun-Woo Han (Vayne), this man held some interesting traits, and had some interesting techniques. He was part of a clan named the Gyojin clan, Reese joined it and become focused on learning everything about the clan that there was. Reese met the other clan members Sora (Loki), Alonzo Evans (LoK). Out of the blue Chun-Woo Han went missing and left the clan to die. A few months went past and suddenly Chun-Woo Han came back, he had announced that he is giving up leadership and passing it onto either Reese himself, or Sora. Sora was picked, thus being made the current head of the clan.
Now that Sora is in control. Everything within the clan had been set back in motion, and as a back-up plan just in case Sora does something like Chun-Woo Han did, Sora has placed Reese as second in command just to be on the safe side. Reese could finally unlock all there was about the clan, and learn it secrets, which he did and now knows all the techniques at this current time.
Currently Reese resides in the village hidden in the leafs, Konoha. He lives there happily with his new comrades. While spending his time in the village, Reese thought of new ways of testing the elements around, mixing them together. Things like that until something worked, by mixing fire, earth and water he created a completely new element called Alcohol, with the help of a comrade by the name of Jugram Haschwalth (Drackos). It came to be born.

Gyojin Clan: Being second in command only to the clan head. John shares basic abilities related to their genetic traits, such as: incredible physical abilities (x2 strength and 1.5 times faster then a regular human), a naturally occurring mucoprotein that is both a protection against bacterial infections but also a natural insulator, the ability to breathe underwater, water dowsing and uncommon resistance to C-rank and under water techniques, and finally incredible swimming speed. Due to John's rank in the clan (Mazu), he can perform B-Rank and below water techniques without the use of hand seals. Gyojin have the ability to sense bodies of water and everything within a water source. Using that ability, the Gyojin developed a new branch of taijutsu called Gyojin Karate, where the user combines martial arts with water manipulation. An art in which John excels in. The remaining A-ranks and above water techniques, John is able to perform those with only a single hand seal and with great speed.
Wind Proficiency: Having spent many years practising in the art of Fuuton. Reese has proved himself to be very proficient with all wind techniques and as such can perform the required hand seals with great speed.
Hand-to-hand combat: Reese is highly trained in close-quarters battle and hand-to-hand combat. He is able to defeat a gang of punks with little to no effort. He mostly uses these skills in certain emergency situations, such as when a person that is of interest to him is about to do something dumb. His skills are advanced enough that only a few people have been able to fight him for significant periods of time, let alone defeat him. His fighting style appears to be mix of Yūgana Ken | Graceful Fist and Kyu Doragon Jutsu | Nine Arts Dragon. He has also been seen with using normal everyday utensils as weapons once or twice.
Indomitable will/High tolerance for pain: Reese has an unbreakable will and a remarkably high threshold for pain. He was once tortured with electricity simply for refusing to give his captors his name. When former Hokage was looking for his wife, his ANBU squard tortured Reese by punching needles into specific nerves on his body, such as the humerus, and Reese never cracked.
Weaponry: Reese carries a thumb sized ball, this ball is a special weapon that allows him to use the fighting style: Football Arts & attached to each side of Reese's hips, there are duel chained blades that are chained allowing Reese to use the fighting style: Doki Sono Kamigami | Wrath of the Gods. Reese also carries along side his other weapons a weapon that goes by the name of a bolas, these a simply weights attached to a rope that gain power & momentum, thus throwing them allowing the one wielding them to hinder one's movement a very handy weapon. These bolas grand Reese access to the fighting style: Bōrasu no Michi | Way of the Bolas
