Summary

Ares 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)
• Buy "Normal" limbs to decrease abnormalities when not associated with tasks.

Afterthoughts:

• Get a larger (mobile) base of operation.
• Find the original mole that planned the escape.

• Rediscover the Ares research facility.

Achieved:

• 
  

Background

White walls, a strip of red, and a strip of green. Subject 124-028 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.

At the age of 18, the subject lowered in priority due to dead ends in research, and the Ares facility decided it was time to transport the subject for alternative testing procedures. This occurred for a large portion of the vat-borns, 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 - it was on a mountain pass and the mid-truck was thrown into the deep snow. 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, he linked the opening of a door to be the current leader, and with diligence assisted in the extermination of an assumed 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 to find the best work each could associate with.

Frostbites initial contact was Haruki Uchida, however after their assumed death due to a overzealous trap to re-secure them for Ares, he 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. The attack has left it severely damaged, with its left arm being rendered as useful as a early 2000's prosthetic.

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.
