Character Information
Summary
Ex-corporate Project Manager framed by Division VP during a botched competitor extraction. Chose team survival over SOP. Now leverages corporate logistics knowledge, high-class negotiation, and tactical coordination to lead the crews in the Seattle sprawl.

Fight the system that tossed him aside so quickly.
Try to use the skills he has to keep his life as normal (cushy) as possible.
Background
<Name> was a project manager for Mitsuhama Computer Technologies working out of the Tukwila, Seattle office. He started out in the managerial track for young hotshots and was making decent progress. He was placed in charge of a data extraction mission targeting Horizon, working as coordinator and corporate liaison for the runners. Once the mission started to get interesting, <Name> buckled down to extract the team, rather than abide by corporate SoP directing him to cut ties with the team. Two of the runners survived to be extracted <Runner 1>, the team's street samurai and <Runner 2>, the teams cyber hacker. Once corporate caught wind of the snafu, the regional VP had <Contact 1, middle manager> fire <Name>. To help cover the record <Contact 2, Jr. Compliance Officer> falsified records to show that <Name> was at fault for project's failure.
Left with little but his condo and few belongings, <Name> turned to the runners he had helped to begin to piece his life back together. <Runner 1> had a deeper affinity for <Name> having been surprised that a corp man would risk himself on behalf of the team. So he took <Name> under his wing and guided him into the world of Shadowrunners, this time from the shadows. <Name> took on the alias Synergy as both a reminder of his corporate days and a nod to how he hopes to help teams in the future.
