Background

Captain Boomerang grew up in an area that was under "protection" from the mob. His parents ran a small franchise from Aztechnology, selling day-to-day necessities. Barely enough money was drummed up for them to live on, so when they, naturally, fell behind on their "protection" payments, the men came to visit the shop. Jeremy, as he was known back when, was about 12. and he decided he wasn't going to take it. He started grabbing objects and throwing them with uncanny precision. He injured two men before another managed to subdue him. He was beaten near to death, but one of the men, an adept himself, recognized the boy's awakening and natural talent. He trained the boy, eventually finding an odd affinity for boomerangs, leading to his new nickname. While Boomerang, also known as Boomer, was not willing to commit to the mafioso life, he helped out on odd jobs now and then. At first, he used the money to help out his parents now and then, but eventually he felt it would be better if they were separated from the world he was in now. He still helps out the mafia now and again, but primarily considers himself a shadowrunner. He took the moniker "Captain" Boomerang after being called Boomerang for a while and then discovering the 20th century character Captain Boomerang.

Narrative Significant Qualities

• Antipathy: I don't give a drek how you feel about it. I want my payday and I don't want to get caught doing it. That's why I put the boomerang in his skull.

• Computer Illiterate: Why does this Haven thing have to be matrix based? I can barely make a damn comm-call.

• Insomnia (Basic): Since I was a kid, had trouble sleeping. I just deal with it now.

Appearance

Boomer is dark haired, with similarly dark eyes. He tends to keep the hair cut close, almost military, but almost like he's leaving it just a touch longer to not be military. He tends to have a 5 o clock shadow. Ultimately, he doesn't stick out and he does't blend in either. Well, unless you see him dressed head to toe for a mission. A dozen boomerangs (and that's just the visible ones) tend to stick out in the mind.

Clothing

When he is going about his day to day, he tends to wear very relaxed clothes, sporting his coat over the top to act as daily armor. He always carries his cane and a few boomerangs (hidden inside his coat).

When he is going somewhere especially dangerous he dons the Big Game armor (which he has died black) and helmet and a lot more boomerangs. When dressed like this, he often strongly resembles a comic book villain, as though he had planned out the appearance, although he has not, in fact, planned it to be this way.

Matrix Persona

He uses the (almost) default matrix icon as his matrix persona when forced to interact with the matrix. He once tried to change it to an image of Captain Boomerang, but ended up really messing up the sliders and wound up with a default person with abnormally large ears.
