Overview
Ashen Hand as far as anyone knows was a simple kid living in Fort Lewis alongside his brother and single mother. His birth name is unknown to many but his current SIN has him listed as "Frederickson Belov." He had a knack for getting into fights and being able to take a solid beating without so much as slowing down. A constant trouble maker and antisocial "weirdo" for reasons very few knew about. Later in life becoming a security guard for various clubs and other establishments around the city. His brutality was noted but still his capabilities were not ignored, especially when he managed to secure a security job at Ares Macrotechnology. His skills with firearms proving second to none and his resilience was rare, allowing him to take multiple hits from various sources that would put down any other corporate security in one shot. Ares took note of this and promoted him to be among their HTR. Deployed on several missions across the UCAS for various reasons he keeps to himself including the face they are classified by the corporation.
Eventually Fredrickson was fired, while on watch duty his ally turned and fired upon him and he acted in retaliation, killing them in the process. The corporation after this incident let him go, likely to cover their hide amongst those in the know. After this Fredrickson struggled trying to find a job with his expensive ware and augments stripped from him. Left to adjust to a weakened body in a profession where strength and accuracy where paramount. After a while he however disappear for a few years to the public. His whereabouts during this time unknown to even his family, who during this time was also mourning the loss of his brother. When he returned to the world he had apparently fell upon good fortunes as he had the finances to open up his own small business/PMC along two others. One known as Veronica Neumann and the other, one Ezekiel Kennedy. The nickname Ashen Hand as it seems came from a job where upon him and his men found a room full of feral infected. After molotoving the room and setting it ablaze they thought they were safe till several survivors emerged from the room covered in ashes and charged the team. Fredrickson used his shield and body to protect the others as the front line while the others did what they could to help him and eventually the threat was dealt with. And covering Fredrickson's armor was hand prints of ash. From there, the nickname stuck. Despite being a small business ironically, the business they deal in is anything but. Recruiting several individuals current or former HTR level to be freelance HTR for different buyers. Their prices are expensive of course but so far they have yet to receive a poor review.
Though rumours are abound about his business. Who is backing and supporting him? Who is providing the funds for so much ware and high quality equipment? Yes some donations and contracts give funding of course but not to the extent this establishment would be kept open and supplied to the level it is. The answer, in his own words is "their first name is Nanya, their last name is business, and their name middle is fucking. Now are you here for a job or do you want to get out?" He tends to be... irritable, as many have seen. But when paid for a job, and when taking care of his team, he is second to none when it comes to getting things done.
