After his first couple of runs, Thunder began to realize that he could influence his own faith and that the way others treated him was not only due to discrimination against certain Meta-Types, but that appearance matters too. He undertook a targeted effort to not look dishelved and started to observe other people, their appearances and behaviour with more intent.

The reward was almost instantaneous. He realized that looks and manners can actually open new doors and give access to previously unattainable opportunities and settings.

Brick seized the moment and pitched the idea of enrolling a Troll from Europe who was scholastically challenged by growing up in the depths of the woods. In addition, said troll would be a great athlete in a sport uncommon with young people – archery. Problem solved!

All those inquisitive questions first lost their intimidating effect, then became boring and finally sparked Thunders imagination. Telling a good story to get out of a tight spot has become ever more natural after repeatably finding himself in situations where telling the truth seems more harmful than a sharing a fairitale.

Mentor Spirit (Bear) -
Analytical Mind -
Not having many friends, growing up in the woods where some of the darkest classic fairy tails were conceived, fantastic things happen and friendships with nature are forged.
Do you like puzzles? Thunder can sit for hours in front of puzzles and riddles. It's relaxing and much fun!
Helping a stray bear cub survive its first season without its its mother was a great friendship which turned out to carry additional rewards in terms of spiritual mentorship by the ghost spirit of the cubs diseased mum.
 
Focused Concentration -
Lonely days, growing up in the woods makes one creative. Thunder found an interest in experimenting with magic, classical healing and rudimentary biotech. Juggling those miss-fitting balls, all at the same time, taught him to focus on many things at the same time. It didn't always go well. Some scars and a very slight sulfuric smell which doesn't wash off can still be noticed by those sensitive enough.
 
Perfect Time -
In the depths of the woods where tales like Hansel and Gretel are a part of reality children learn at an early age that keeping track of the sun-down and the rhythm of nature might be the only thing that saves you from a disaster.
 
School of hard knocks -
Coming to Seattle at the age of 15, Thunder realized that he had to learn to survive on the street in order to become someone. The eagerness and curiosity with which he tries to broaden his knowledge is impressive, just like some of the scars he earned along the way.
 
Spirit Affinity -
Not quite certain, but Thunder thinks his mentor spirit might have put in a good word for him with spirits of man.

Biting off more than he can chew is one of Thunders bad habits. Especially for a troll known to have a big appetite, this is not always a good thing. His naivety and let's get it done mentality sometimes gets Thunder into trouble bigger than him. Luckily, he is used to fighting trouble bigger than himself and tends to be cool and lucky instead of panicky and shaky in such situations.

Thunder developed a mild phobia against rats when he met a totally deformed man who claimed his deformation was the result of a common rat-disease he had contracted from getting bit by a rat. Supposedly the disease is very common with rats and spreads easily to Meta-Humans. Thunder has not yet been able to find any indication that there would be a known cure to the disease and panics when confronted with named rodent. It does not matter that Thunder also hasn't been able to find the disease described in any articles while searching for the cure.

Overlooking the obvious is so easy when panic strikes.

Insomnia -
Thunder misses his mum and dad. Especially at night. Luckily the time-zone difference makes it possible to call them on the Com-Link during the darkest of nights.
Those long conversations in the whee small hours tend to take a toll on his rest and daily rhythm.
Feeling jet lagged without having to pay the credits to fly across the Atlantic seems like a bargain, don't you think?

Character Information

Summary

Thunder is a strong troll from the Black Forest. He has a heavy fist punch and also likes to use his good target to distribute damage with his silent bow and heavy machine gun. hurt and on the same team, he'll be happy to heal you with magic. His [mystic adept] powers accentuate his powerful and striking presence.

Thunder is eager to work and good company on a run.

He grew up on a farm in The Black Forest Troll Kingdom (Allied German State – ADL). His main interests are are healing, bow-hunting, and fishing. Those interests developed naturally in the depths of "The Forest". His father (still lives in The Black Forest) is the local go-to for anyone with health problems.

At 15, Thunder came to Seattle on an foreign-student archery scholarship. A local high school which felt the need to add some diversity to its statistics was keen to establish an overseas high school exchange partnership.

After graduation, Thunder applied to various local colleges and scholarships to learn more about magic and healing. Unfortunately, he didn't get accepted: He took on temporary work as a heavy lifter at the docks and bouncer at clubs in Touristville to afford food and a matrass.

In his spare time, he used to earn a few extra bucks as bare knuckle fighter. An acquaintance pushed him to meet Salvia Necrosa (fixer) to find out how to risk his health in a much more serious and lucrative way. That's how he became a runner. After a few runs, Thunder realized that running in the shadows is so much more than just a way to earn a quick buck. He finds that he has grown as a person through success in missions. He's gained self-confidence and self-awareness. He he has realized that he can influence his own destiny by his own decisions and it is up to him to shape his own future.

Goals

Long Term: To become an experimental researcher in the combined fields of magic, healing, cyber- and bioware. To Earn serious money to afford a college education. (OK, the money as a runner has been really good, but also slippery. "Oh, is that the latest armor technology you're wearing? I love it! Where did you buy it? ...where did my Nuyen go?").

Short Term: Learn how to use the matrix. It seems like a sea of opportunities. Learn to put aside a Nuyen or two for a rainy day or even that college education.

Background

After his first couple of runs, Thunder began to realize that he could influence his own faith. The way others treated him was not only due to discrimination against certain Meta-Types, but that appearance and manners also matter. He undertook a targeted effort to not look dishelved and started to observe other people, their appearances and behaviour with more intent. The reward was almost instantaneous. Looks and manners opened new doors and gave access to previously unattainable opportunities and experiences.

Thunder grew up on a farm in the Black Forest. A very protected environment in deep woods. Daily routines included assisting with the animals on the farm and muscle work in the family forest. Highlights were bow hunting and assisting his father in healing injured neighbours.

His uncle Brick, who lives in the outskirts of Seattle and works as a taxi driver overheard a conversation of a local high school headmistress, who was talking on her Commlink about how her school was at risk of loosing funding due to the lack of diversity. Brick seized the moment and pitched the idea of enrolling a Troll from Europe who was scholastically challenged by growing up in the depths of the woods. In addition, said troll would be a great athlete in a sport uncommon with young people – archery. Problem solved!

Thunder got a ticket to Seattle and became one more spice in the melting-pot.

In high school, Thunder was a bit of an outsider but didn’t mid. He considered the few friends he had in Seattle better than having to walk five miles to the closest neighbour in the Black Forest.

Living in Seattle was exciting and still is. What a place! So many impressions and opportunities!!!

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

Alibi - All those inquisitive questions first lost their intimidating effect, then became boring and finally sparked Thunders imagination. Telling a good story to get out of a tight spot has become ever more natural after repeatably finding himself in situations where telling the truth seems more harmful than a sharing a fairitale.

Analytical Mind - Do you like puzzles? Thunder can sit for hours in front of puzzles and riddles. It's relaxing and much fun!

Battle Hardened - Master Shedim, Sea Drakes, Monoliths, Humanis Policlub supremists, 10 000 Daggers, Unbreakables, Horror Shows, Great Spirits... At first, Thunder asked why here, why me? Now, he rather asks himself what the best countermeasure might be. Though each of those encounters hardens ones nerves, there will still be some future opponents which will cause his armor to have to be cleaned on the inside again.

Biocompatability - Some things you don't know until you try. Thunders is lucky because bioware seems to fit better with his system than it does with the average meta human.

Common Sense - If you take enough hits to your head -either you learn, or you don't survive. Thunder has been running with very skilled professionals who have taught him many valuable lessons and helped him survive and retain his lessons learned.

Daredevil - Biting off more than he can chew is one of Thunders bad habits. Especially for a troll known to have a big appetite, this is not always a good thing. His naivety and let's get it done mentality sometimes gets Thunder into trouble bigger than him. Luckily, he is used to fighting trouble bigger than himself and tends to be cool and lucky instead of panicky and shaky in such situations.

Focused Concentration - Lonely days, growing up in the woods makes one creative. Thunder found an interest in experimenting with magic, classical healing and rudimentary biotech. Juggling those miss-fitting balls, all at the same time, taught him to focus on many things in parallel. It didn't always go well. Some scars can still be noticed.

Legendary Rep (N-51) That Tank Fight was insane!

Legendary Rep (Sons of Sauron) - Some dangerous wet work on some truly evil supremists and a bunch of Orcs to witness the impressive devastation left behind has given Thunder quite a rep. with The Sons of Sauron.

Mentor Spirit (Bear) - Not having many friends, growing up in the woods, where some of the darkest classic fairy tails were conceived, fantastic things happen and friendships with nature are forged. Helping a stray bear cub survive its first season without its its mother was a turned into a great friendship. An unexpected additional reward was the spiritual mentorship and protection of the diseased mama-bear.

Natural Leader -

Perceptive 2 - So many fierce opponents hiding in the shadows have made Thunder look twice before allowing himself to relax.

Perfect Time - In the depths of the woods where tales like Hansel and Gretel are a part of reality children learn at an early age that keeping track of the sun-down and the rhythm of nature might be the only thing that saves you from disaster.

School of hard knocks - Coming to Seattle at the age of 15, Thunder realized that he had to learn to survive on the street in order to become someone. The eagerness and curiosity with which he tries to broaden his knowledge is impressive, just like some of the scars he earned along the way.

Sensei - Commander is Thunders go-to for questions about heavy machine-guns. He met Commander during the Rad-Wars of 2084.

Shoot first. Don't Ask -

Spirit Affinity - Not quite certain, but Thunder thinks his mentor spirit might have put in a good word for him with spirits of man.

Spirit Champion -

The Magician's Way -

Negative

Phobia - Uncommon, Mild, Rats Thunder developed a mild phobia against rats when he met a totally deformed man who claimed his deformation was the result of a common rat-disease he had contracted from getting bit by a rat. Supposedly the disease is very common with rats and spreads easily to Meta-Humans. Thunder has not yet been able to find any indication that there would be a known cure to the disease and panics when confronted with named rodent. It does not matter that Thunder also hasn't been able to find the disease described in any articles while searching for the cure. Overlooking the obvious is so easy when panic strikes.

Additional Info: Thunder owes Rurosha (Runner on the Haven) a favour from the adventure "Are You a Bringer?)

Aspect Information Related Run(s)
Drawn to and Known by Minorities and Liberty Fighters. Thunder is known by Sons of Sauron, Neo Anarchists, and other liberty and contra-oppression organizations as someone they can count on when things need to get done. He is very open to supporting equality & freedom and to fight against corruption and for the oppressed and disadvantaged. He is not a joiner and has thus far always declined politely if any organization has asked him to become an active member. However, he will offer his help to do good and join missions which he thinks fall under "doing good" while others may classify them as acts of terrorism.

Romantic view of the military. Thunder took part in the Rad Wars 2084 and loved it. His team was both successful and made a name for themselves in some epic battles. Having a clear structure with definite lines of command people telling him what to do fit him perfectly. Especially since his commanders gave him orders to do things that made sense and fit his skill set. Rep with N51: +16, UCAS Army: +5 Operation Poseidon , Methodical Approach , La Nouvelle Cavalerie , A Question of Ethics
Naiveté, Drawn to weird shit, mythology and sometimes the wrong people. Thunder finds it easy to like people and be drawn to authoritative people with charisma, stories of mythology and forgotten glory and is curious about the supernatural.

Working for a guy named Wednesday (Winternight) was an honor and he hopes to get contacted again and work for the very fine old man who seems to have so much experience and might be able to share wisdom and life lessons with Thunder who feels lost in this big and complex world at times. (should they want to find him, he still keeps an unbound toxic focus gifted to him by Wednesday in a well hidden place which he sometimes visits and looks for messages). Rep with EuroPol: -14
The temptation to join the Wild Hunt was real. He was just about to retire and join as Woedica Kryptman beat him to the task. Since that moment, he admires her bravery and dedication and hopes to meet her and the Wild Hunt again some day soon.

Sprinting_Gallows , Reject Enlightenment
Not yet Researcher, Student, nor Bio-Tech-Magic-Healing Specialist Thunder's dream is to go get a college education and become a specialist in the combined fields of Bio-Tech, Healing, and Magic. He doesn't realize the dangers and loss of personal freedom that come with becoming really good at something the corps want. He just thinks that being a good healer and helping science combine those fields of studies which are only barely compatible would be a great service to Meta-Human-Kind. No runs yet
Niteskool, Evening Courses in Matrix Topics, Bellvue College Continuing Education Thunder has this commlink with all those functions. One day he decided to learn what a commlink can actually do in addition to call Mom and Dad so he joined an evening course at the local college. It was quite fascinating, so he signed up for one more course... Has one Skill-Level in Electronics and one in Cracking, and has just recently hacked into and looped a surveillance camera.
Gotta Love Redmond and its Barrens Thunder moved to the Redmond Barrens and fell in love with its pulse. People are real, with real passion, problems and sometimes even real friendships. He loves how real life is on the busy streets of Redmond. As he earned more money, he gradually moved closer and closer to Tourist Ville, where he now has a nice apartment smack in the middle of street-life and sin.

If Redmond needs assistance, Thunder is there to help the town he loves so much.

Free Seattle! Part 1 , Skulls Splitting
Questionable ethics may not be an issue. While Thunder likes to help and do good, he sometimes gets drawn into dirty business and has a problem saying no. Skulls Splitting, RATS in The Barrens Part I, RATS A Night at The Opera, Crime Brûlée

"Yepp, you notice! I'm flattered!"
