Overview
To an emerged, technology is more than cold hunks of metal. Machines have life and soul, qualities that Zenny seeks to bring forth in his art (read: unlicensed cybersurgeries). A regular in the Loveland gang scene, he became a semi-willing member of the 'ware gang Explosive Special Reapers after his previous crew fell apart. The Reapers' vibes were, to put it bluntly, fucked; the only real consolation of working for the psychos was that they had a great cyberware hookup. When said cyberware hookup was killed on top of a volcano, Zenny decided to slip away and seek his fortunes elsewhere.
Zenny's journey took him to Hell's Kitchen where he encountered the marvel of juryrigged tech that is the Iceberg Hotel. The building was a beacon in the wasteland, a chunk of technology that all had the soul he'd been looking for. After realizing that the place was surrounded by a minefield, he decided to join the hotel's gang to get a better look inside. Now a member of the Hellraisers' illustrious (2 person) matrix division, he's set about pestering Barracuda to get ware and making the building's wired host even more incomprehensible.
Traits
Zenny is a laid back dude. He's nice to everyone, rarely raises his voice, and is usually zonked out of his mind on Zen. He's super impressed by well-loved ware, and will complement it incessantly. Despite being good at what he does he's got a severe lack of common sense, frequently overclocking his ware way beyond the point of safety. The upside to this is that he's pretty handy in a fight, even if there's a small chance of his limbs bricking.
