==Background==
==Background==
Born in a lab, childhood consisted of an empty white room, which the only social reaction was answering questions on current physical/mental state. “Do you have any pain in your arms?” “Can you feel your legs” “Does anything itch?” – Childhood was spent as a test bed for adaptable cyberlimbs, and learning more about association, and how it could be used to control subjects with minimal expenditure.
White walls, a strip of red, and a strip of green. Subject ZG-028 was never treated as a meta-human, because its intention was never to be a meta-human. It was a biological entity that shared all the aspects of a human, though when no one knows you exist, you don't exist. Social interaction was minimal, “Pain at the arms?” “Feel the legs” “Anything itch?” - no one had time for another vat-born. They were busy and understaffed. Learning was offered for basic association to decreases resources spent for interpreting the data, and minimal entertainment was offered so "fun" would be associated only to work orientated tasks.


At the age of 18, the subject was no longer needed for testing, and for a period of time as transferred to aid in internal security – before later being assigned for recycling at another facility, him and others being transported with other assets of interest that the company wanted to bury. During “reassignment” the convoy was attacked while travelling on frozen roads, and among the chaos, the vehicle fell into a ditch. While they all possessed their basic armor – none possessed weapons – though once the truck door was opened after a amount of ‘recalibration’ time, runners in association with multiple rogue subjects entered and threw an assorted bag of weapons onto what was now the roof of the truck. Dazed, though following the lead of other subjects, the rogues in aid of runners applied lethal force to the remaining members of the convoy – securing confidential information on Ares in the process.  
The awakening occurred around during exposure to a mana-warp, and while completely a coincidence, the idea there could be a link was enticing enough to extend possible research parameters, this came alongside its SURGE - while physically the only notable alteration was a blue skin tone, on the astral they represented the terror of others more emotional in the program, new senses were violently altering its perception of the world - and it became the second most important subject of research due to advanced and yet unexplained anomalies.


After a trek in the snow, groups being broken up into smaller squads to conceal their movements, they eventually made it to a convoy of assorted Ford trucks, each going in a different direction. He eventually ended up in Seattle after a 12-hour drive. They were to work on some low-level jobs for a year, giving a percentage of their earnings to the group that rescued them. After which if they proved themselves they could be given an opportunity to join, or find alternative work. He chose to separate, and eventually got into contact with Haruki Uchida, a fixer that seemed to cater towards his less… Organic composure.
As with other vaguely militaristic projects, Subject 028 was given military grade training at an extremely young age as part of the project for accelerated soldiers developments, and while attention was diverted from this due to unique properties, training level was sufficient to the degree they have participated in multiple smaller scale operations - both in live-fire "training" exercises against intruders to the facility, combat sims of open-warfare - and a multiple external excursions after utility was degraded.  


He has been partaking in low level runs for half a year now as a “Samurai for hire” – still acquainting himself to his newfound freedom. This has been with its faults – anti-social tendencies have burned many bridges that could have been useful to keep.   
At the age of 18, a large quantity of the subjects, including 028, were deemed as lower value assets, and the S-K facility decided it was time to transport the subjects for alternative testing procedures. Either being repurposed for new experiments, or being recycled to try to get back some investment if unable to be used for other purposes. During this movement, the transport convoy was attacked during escort on a mountain pass, the centre truck of a 4 vehicle convoy was thrown into the deep snow after an explosion ruptured the ground below. A severe firefight started above, while the unknown group engaged in both offensive tactics, and "asset" recovery. After waking, the first thing they experienced for their new life was bullet fire, intense heat followed by intense cold - a smoky room from the leaking battery acids, and a figure throwing in a assortment of automatic weapons for the still conscious protohumans to use against their capturers. Like any other experiment, it linked the opening of a door to be the current leader, and with diligence assisted in the extermination of an assumed combat practice scenario. 
 
After a trek through the snow, they arrived at their transportation - each going a different way to be dispersed around the UCAS/CAS/SSC to find the best work each could associate with. Seattle was the home of a few of these - some from initial departure - others being brought by nuyen after acclimating to the world beyond the cold walls. 
 
Frostbites initial contact was Haruki Uchida, however after their assumed death due to a overzealous trap to re-secure them for S-K, it has since been "Adopted" by Shi Hakase to assist in ongoing research matters in awakened-transhumans, aiming to see if there are any possible correlations like the scientists before. The attack has left it severely damaged, with its left arm being rendered as useful as a early 2000's prosthetic.

'''Months 1 - 2'''
The Haven is a strange place for Frostbite - before hand he mainly took on much smaller scoped jobs - they consisted of sitting in one place for up to 38 hours, shooting 1-12 bullets, then disappearing. The cost of a bullet mattered, and social interactions were minimal. The Haven has offered jobs he still doesn't understand - some missions he does nothing but watch from the sidelines, and in one of the latest he was '''|REDACTED|''' causi - cau- a - g - - -. He is still antisocial, and with his free time between missions - actually starting to spend time on what it is to be human. Rooftops are his resting place, and his Dragonfly has given him a much needed company they didn't know they required. He has spent a long time stalking people on their day to day lives - from wage slaves as they enter a factory to going home in to their depressive family, to runners such as Dr.Trauma when he was intrigued on learning the incredible magical power he possessed. It's an isolated life, and because contact with the Johnson is rarely required by himself - he has started to become more mute - keeping quiet gets him paid well - greater pay equates to increased performance - and therefore staying silent is more efficient. He has improved his relationship with his fixer Haruki Uchida - whom he has now proven to be a consistent source of nuyen. He has also attempted to repay the opportunity provided by the EVO acquisitions expert Irena Tachikov - while small, he has performed minor favors for them and utilized their services to further their business relationship.

*''Despite being an escaped experiment, at least to his current knowledge - there are no public warrants for his capture due to the - illegality - of the tests - Ares may have organized bounties with private groups on the subjects heads, though at time of writing, he has no knowledge if that is the case.''
*''Frostbite is currently wanted by Saeder Krupp and their subsidiaries - there is a warrant for 140k for live capture among S-K agents, or personally contracted teams. Released to the general public is a less factual warrant at only 40k (Either alive or dead). The 140k warrant has relatively up to date details, habits, training and ware that was last observed - with sightings being updated to enable SK agents an increased edge in confrontation. The 40K warrant has rough appearance - notations they are an EX-Sinner, and a backstory about them terrorising an SK facility.''

Character Information

Summary

S-K proto-transhuman used as a testbed for meta-human cyberlimb compatibility – due to treatment as a biological machine, very little social capacity. Task orientated, follows a basic set of procedures on a Job – does not understand ethical quandaries.

Goals

Main:

  • Fix broken cyberarm - get to factory default settings.

Side:

  • Seeks to pacify its curiosity and gain an understanding of the world it now lives in, is very much a tourist in the shadows.
  • Improve cyber-augmentation - (increase rating of limbs to allow better body-mind connection). (0/4 Limbs to Alpha)
  • Find a group of people that it is compatible to work with. (Optimized)
  • Acquire "Normal" limbs to decrease abnormalities when not associated with tasks.

Afterthoughts:

  • Obtain mobile base of operation.
  • Obtain network of safehouses.
  • Rediscover the S-K research facility.

Achieved:


Background

White walls, a strip of red, and a strip of green. Subject ZG-028 was never treated as a meta-human, because its intention was never to be a meta-human. It was a biological entity that shared all the aspects of a human, though when no one knows you exist, you don't exist. Social interaction was minimal, “Pain at the arms?” “Feel the legs” “Anything itch?” - no one had time for another vat-born. They were busy and understaffed. Learning was offered for basic association to decreases resources spent for interpreting the data, and minimal entertainment was offered so "fun" would be associated only to work orientated tasks.

The awakening occurred around during exposure to a mana-warp, and while completely a coincidence, the idea there could be a link was enticing enough to extend possible research parameters, this came alongside its SURGE - while physically the only notable alteration was a blue skin tone, on the astral they represented the terror of others more emotional in the program, new senses were violently altering its perception of the world - and it became the second most important subject of research due to advanced and yet unexplained anomalies.

As with other vaguely militaristic projects, Subject 028 was given military grade training at an extremely young age as part of the project for accelerated soldiers developments, and while attention was diverted from this due to unique properties, training level was sufficient to the degree they have participated in multiple smaller scale operations - both in live-fire "training" exercises against intruders to the facility, combat sims of open-warfare - and a multiple external excursions after utility was degraded.

At the age of 18, a large quantity of the subjects, including 028, were deemed as lower value assets, and the S-K facility decided it was time to transport the subjects for alternative testing procedures. Either being repurposed for new experiments, or being recycled to try to get back some investment if unable to be used for other purposes. During this movement, the transport convoy was attacked during escort on a mountain pass, the centre truck of a 4 vehicle convoy was thrown into the deep snow after an explosion ruptured the ground below. A severe firefight started above, while the unknown group engaged in both offensive tactics, and "asset" recovery. After waking, the first thing they experienced for their new life was bullet fire, intense heat followed by intense cold - a smoky room from the leaking battery acids, and a figure throwing in a assortment of automatic weapons for the still conscious protohumans to use against their capturers. Like any other experiment, it linked the opening of a door to be the current leader, and with diligence assisted in the extermination of an assumed combat practice scenario.

After a trek through the snow, they arrived at their transportation - each going a different way to be dispersed around the UCAS/CAS/SSC to find the best work each could associate with. Seattle was the home of a few of these - some from initial departure - others being brought by nuyen after acclimating to the world beyond the cold walls.

Frostbites initial contact was Haruki Uchida, however after their assumed death due to a overzealous trap to re-secure them for S-K, it has since been "Adopted" by Shi Hakase to assist in ongoing research matters in awakened-transhumans, aiming to see if there are any possible correlations like the scientists before. The attack has left it severely damaged, with its left arm being rendered as useful as a early 2000's prosthetic.

Note:

  • Frostbite is currently wanted by Saeder Krupp and their subsidiaries - there is a warrant for 140k for live capture among S-K agents, or personally contracted teams. Released to the general public is a less factual warrant at only 40k (Either alive or dead). The 140k warrant has relatively up to date details, habits, training and ware that was last observed - with sightings being updated to enable SK agents an increased edge in confrontation. The 40K warrant has rough appearance - notations they are an EX-Sinner, and a backstory about them terrorising an SK facility.

Matrix Persona

Ninja (Stock)

Appearance

Nude/Base form

Body is a icy blue, limbs while the generic shape of muscles are blocky and matt black - the legs have been altered to be that of a cats hind - and joints ready to be removed for more fitting disguise. Eyes have a red iris with black sclera's.

Clothing

Combat Gear: Armored trench coat with a pure white, almost ceramic looking mask. A blank expression with 3 eyes. The armor is clear, plates can easily be observed on the body - and subtly is forgotten.

Personnel ware: Leather trench coat, a balaclava with a respirator attached and a light armored vest. Weapons are on show, thought it blends into the scenery if it weren't for his odd stature, interesting legs, and general demonic presence.
