Character Information
Summary
At a glance, Gray is an average human of average height and average looks. In fact, the outward normality is but a carefully manicured camouflage; under the thick clothes hide extensive augmentations, and behind the unassuming gaze lies a Shadowrunner.
Goals
Gray is a Hood of the modern era—or so he styles himself. Rather than stealing credits from the rich and handing them to the poor, instead he cracks software for pirates and performs daring data leaks over sensitive Corporation data to whistleblowers and the media. However, Corps are excellent at damage control and so his exploits have hardly done much but make a few headlines, to his chagrin. Nevertheless, his persistent trouble making has made him enemies.
Background
Gray holds an almost-infuriating talent at blending into the crowd, and owing to his lifestyle, not being afraid to move between areas of low impact for security over comfort, results in a person that is remarkably hard to track.
Gray has been a troublemaker in Matrix circles for many years now: from cracking video games and trids, to infiltrating server farms and performing high-profile data leaks, Gray has ended up on GOD's radar.
One fateful night, during an infiltration of a secure Renraku server building, the Grid Overwatch Division had managed to track him down and confront him with an agent of their own: a demiGOD. After many near-misses, the frustrating upstart decker had finally been cornered; however, due to reasons that were unable to be confirmed, Gray managed to somehow get the upper hand on that demiGOD, and killed him on the spot. He escaped in the ensuing disarray, and crucially, with sensitive Renraku data. Exposing discriminatory biases within the Renraku business model, this was set to be a great catastrophe for the company—but although Gray made sure to leak this compromising information to the media, by the next day Renraku was already running a full on media blitz for damage control. And the end result was consequently a classic Nothing-burger, to the disappointment of the Shadowrunner... But the corporations do not so easily forget.
Now, Gray holds the special privilege of being bumped up to priority target by both Renraku and the Grid Overwatch Division. Sporting a handsome bounty of 75,000¥ as "Unidentified Decker 13", what shall become of the Shadowrunner remains to be seen.
