Character Information

Summary

R0B0H4TZ is manic and obnoxious. The only thing he does with any finesse is hacking, and that's it. While not necessarily an incessant talker, he only really stops spewing bullshit when someone he respects is talking or the situation has gone down the drain.

Goals

• Find some useful and trustworthy Runners to work with, and hopefully avoid getting shot in the back while doing it.
• Earn enough nuyen to afford another month of rent and food.

Background

R0B0H4TZ was born in 2055 on the twelfth of august. He grew up in a hard working and impersonal blue-collar household in Tacoma with a strong "Work Hard, Get Rich" Attittude. He worked hard to get a scholarship and the slightest chance of catching the eye of any rich benefactor. During primary school he developed a keen interest in matrix develoment that lead him to pursue advanced classes and skilled tutors not offered by the public school. During most of primary school he never made any strong connections with anyone due to his blunt affect and unapproachable demeanor.

At age 14 he emerged as a Technomancer, which shook up his entire system. He dropped out of school of school much to his parent's chagrin, and left home to pursue less restricted life. He ended up joining a gang in Renton, and would assist them in robberies by disabling the security systems for them when they were robbing local businesses. R0B0H4TZ became fiercely loyal to the leader of the gang, whom he saw as a big brother. In the end the gang took advantage of his trust and left him to be arrested the moment they found the big haul. While he managed to escape the Security officers by hiding in the sewer maintenace tunnels underneath the building, he was still changed by the experience and went into isolation. This event caused him to take on a rambunctious, acidic, high energy personality with the requisite annoying drek eating grin. While an annoying brat, he does subscribe to the idea of Honor among Thieves and is therefore never out to get those that he's working with, and he describes it as "The most tasteless joke" for a Runner to do so.

For a few years he hid in an abandoned factory. playing AR Games day in and day out on the public grid. During this time he was discovered by a local manchild of a bookie by the name of Donny "Groundskeeper" Gardner, who inspired R0B0H4TZ to start doing odd jobs on his behalf, which would become the start of R0B0H4TZ shadowrunning career.

Narrative Significant Qualities

• Nerdrage: "Yeah, you could easily beat the drek out of me, but from now on you won't be buying your morning soykaf so have fun trying to recover your password chummer!"

Appearance

A very short, asian man of slim build in his late twenties, with a slightly round face and weak chin that makes him seem younger than he really is. His black hair is a perpetual curly mess and his dark brown monolid eyes have noticeable dark rings around them. In general it would be quite easy to mistake him for a teenager, and his strikingly annoying smile doesn't do him many favors when it comes to avoiding punches.

Clothing

An expensive electrochromic jacket proudly displays that R0B0H4TZ is ranked as the 987th best "Blades of Destiny 4" player, and when his t-shirt isn't proclaiming him the No.1 Stuffer Shack fan, it's playing Stuffer Shack advertisements. Except for the red stripes, his cheap black jeans really aren't much of a fashion statement, and his worn sneakers are little more than just a pair of old sneakers. On his head there is always a red baseball cap that he never seems to take off.

Matrix Persona

His matrix persona is a robot with a barrel shaped torso, arms and legs that look like flexible metal tubing, three metal spikes on each hand instead of fingers, rectangular blocks of metal for feet, lightbulbs for eyes, a 7-segment display for a mouth, and an antenna on his head. The robot is almost always wearing a red sorority jacket and an equally red baseball cap.
