Background

• Zachariah was born to a SINless family in the Ork Underground in 2053, raised there, and expressed as a Hobgoblin during the passing of Hallie's Comet. He grew up tough like everyone in the underground, the place and people were like the roots of weeds, growing and adapting to thrive in even the toughest environment. Society flourished beneath the streets, and many found their success above ground in the shadows. Zachariah was no different, and started out as a hired gun for gangers. Over the years, he found his way through the underworld network, and began taking jobs from Ares, Horizon, Aztechnology, as well UCAS Politicians, Rogue AIs, Free Spirits, Eccentric Individuals, and Secret Societies. Along the way he's lost many friends and team-mates, and made many decisions that weigh heavy on his shoulders, along with gaining a lengthy list of enemies. Now he's got quite a rep in the shadow community, however he's truly revered in his home in the Underground. A hero who managed to crawl up from the mud to be something great, although he's still trying to figure out what that something is.

Narrative Significant Qualities

• Legendary Rep: Any long time runner builds up a rep, and Rakshasa has been doing this since he was eleven. However he is revered the most within the Ork Underground as a model of a SINless rat in the tunnels like the rest of them who managed to rise up out of the muck. His hooding and support for his home help contribute to their love for him.

• Code of the Wuxia: Rakshasa has had a strong sense of street honor for as long as he's been working in the shadows. Whether he's shaking people down for the Ragers or pulling the trigger for Ares, he always does it his way. He's always had a complex value system in his head that prioritized friends and innocents, minimizing damage if at all possible, and doing good where he can. This has led him to help the SINless, Underground, and just unfortunate wage-slaves. On the flip-side, he has a mild contempt for gangers, street scum, and some other shadowrunners who aren't afraid to prey on people who aren't 'in the game'.

• Data Liberator: Rakshasa crawled out from beneath the thumbs of high handed corporate overlords, and knows first hand how they desperately try to control the flow of information, data, the matrix, and use made up formula and statistics to force the popular consciousness to their ends. This disgusting abuse of power and indoctrination is something he won't stand for, and does what he can to further the cause of free, unrestricted information and data, along with a free matrix.
