Personality
Not much is known about James' personality, though it is clear his workload has him rather stressed. Overall, he seems rather kind, and is genuinely interested in figuring out what is happening in Wheldrake.

Encounters
List of encounters with the Clew Crew.

James' Office

 * Michael "Skip" Mun
 * Nathalie Darnell
 * Anthony Blum

After finding out James was assigned to the arson cases, the Clew went to his office on Sycamore Street to give him more information about the cult (and hopefully, get some information in return). His office, tucked between a Dunkin' Donuts and a Kwik Kash, was littered with empty coffee cups and loose papers, and he seemed rather stressed. He stated that Kael Fleming suggested he talk to some Wormwood students. From James, it was discovered that there are two different groups causing problems in Wheldrake -- both the Church of the Prophetists, and "criminals in the woods" -- and that these criminals blackmailed Kael, Jimmy, and Tegan into committing arson. James asked for proof of the cult's existence, and Tony showed him the photos of the church basement, as well as an especially distasteful meme. He then requests that they come back with further proof, and gives them his business card.

Gene Carney
The nature of their relationship is unknown, but it seems that James knew him as he asked three members of the Clew Crew whether they were aware of him. It is possible that their relationship is a positive one as he smiled in response to Skip's comment about them being 'buddies'.

Trivia

 * His chair in his office is deliberately uncomfortable so that he doesn't fall asleep.
 * He appears to have something of a caffeine addiction, demonstrated by the number of empty Dunkin' Donuts coffee cups in his office.
