Character Information

Summary

An Ares Transhuman prototype that appeared to have escaped on foot to Seattle at large. While initially keeping a low profile and learning the trade of medicine, their dangerous life forced them to learn to use a firearm and quickly. Only found by Shadowrunners by mistake when one such member was dying and on the brink of death. Only for a mysterious unidentified man to jump and save their life out of nowhere. Before they could properly be identified at the time, gunfire scared them off. Nowadays this mysterious individual has come to be known as Vailrunner, a Street Samurai taking on duties as a medic.

Goals

Finding a life away from the threat of capture by Ares.

Making enough of a living to not just be surviving in Seattle.

Actually finding a life outside of running.

Background

    Vailrunner's name is somewhat of an anomaly, S-00 being more of a callsign is more than a little obvious sign of this. Life was more than a little confusing to start safe to say when they found themselves within an Ares facility. He doesn't remember what it was, or why it was made, though in recent days he's come to guess it must've had something to do with his ability to accept Bioware. He always, however, remembered having unnatural speed, able to hide in even the barren rooms, and generally finding a way to deftly slip into areas.
    What he also remembered was the day of his freedom, a strange power outage allowing an escape to be made without fear of being actively tracked. It was frantic, people he didn't recognize combatting the guards as a raid was underway. Once outside, Vailrunner simply ran down the road. Minutes became hours, became days... Became weeks. A stranger, for reasons never collected or explained, found him, sheltered him and taught him the ropes of medicine and basic academics. By the time he was eighteen years of age, he was released into the world. The man only told him, "We'll speak again when I feel its needed. Use your knowledge, many will pay good money for it. Otherwise, this is good luck."
    Initially, life was simple, taking on freelance work, Vailrunner would be given wounded people to care for and he would bring them back to health. All hell would break loose in his 20s when one of his patients unexpectedly turned into a vampire right on his operating table. Grabbing a knife and stabbing them to death, Vailrunner was last seen in public running out of a building screaming incoherently about this. While it was initially just a strange news story of a man running in a panic out of an alleyway, it turned into a strangely common series of events.
    Especially following what was initially believed to be an isolated incident. A shadowrunner, wounded during a standoff gone bad, was found by Vailrunner who took them to safety and patched their wounds. Before anything else could be done however, the sound of gunfire would scare off the confused young sort. Days later... A phone call, from an unknown number, promising good pay and protection from Ares in exchange for medical services would come in. The only advice from the line was simple, 

"Get a piece. Vampires are the least of your worries chummer."
