Character Information
Summary
An ex-private security rigger who specializes in mentally jumping into her vehicles and drones - partly due to her preference for acting in VR, but mostly because she can't really use her legs. Also highly skilled in engineering skills and solving mathematical problems and issues and applying mathematics to issues they might help solve on a Run.
Goals
Get use of her legs back. Get back at Renraku for stealing her Tech ideas and ultimately causing the Private Security Firm she was part of to dissolve due to loss of life and resources.... Plus they made her paraplegic.
Background
Mekkanyx grew up to German immigrants who had moved to Seattle right after she was born. From an early age, she was extremely interested in all things mathematic, mechanical, and technological. Breaking things down and putting them back together was a hobby, and eventually, this hobby expanded into modifying tech and creating new items altogether. She was considered something of a prodigy and was quickly admitted to Technical School when she was old enough to attend and graduated with top marks a few years later.
Shortly after graduation, Mekkanyx joined a Private Security Firm. This firm was known as The Defenders of Dawn and they were an organization that specialized in assisting particularly oppressed groups or the helpless to live their daily lives without as much fear or trouble, but they also occasionally did supply runs for corporations or independent vendors. Mekkanyx felt at home with the DoD because she had always had strong opinions on how the People were treated by the government, corporations, and other types who should have been doing all they could to help the community, but only ever did the exact opposite. Last year, one of the Supply Runs that Mekkanyx had been participating in was attacked by a unit of Renraku soldiers because the Megacorporation suspected the goods were stolen Renraku tech and weapons, but were actually entirely unrelated medicines and survival supplies - a fact only found out after Mekkanyx and her Firm were decimated not only in the caravan, but also at the office. Of course, Renraku would never admit that they were wrong, and Mekkanyx has had a developing vendetta against them ever since. The attack caused the loss of the feeling and mobility in her legs, and she's been confined to a wheelchair for the past year.
