Official description
"Don't let his good looks fool you, La Malice enjoys inflicting bodily harm. A former strip club doorman from St. Jean, Viau lost his job after stabbing far too many of the bar's clientele. The bar owner remains in critical condition." - A.I.M. Dossier, Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games
"Jean-Pierre may be a little rough around the edges, but he is extremely sharp with a blade-in-hand. He acquired most of his skills while working as the head doorman at a nightclub. Street fighting is definitely one of his strengths. La Malice seems to have found his calling with A.I.M. though, as he has honed his talents to exquisite perfection. " - A.I.M. Dossier, Jagged Alliance 2
Additional info
- Has a backwoods, Quebecois French accent.
- Not too smart, but sadistically helpful.
- Takes pride in his small accomplishments.
- Thinks of himself of something of a ladies man, this, in turn, makes some of the more affirmative women dislike him and his crude manner makes Gaston think of him as a disgrace to all French men, not to mention as competition.
