Background

Adopted at age 13 by mid level Saeder-Krupp employees Jasper Blake, the man that would become Rune Knight, had every advantage of a corporate upbringing. His adopted parents, at the behest of some unknown higher up, carefully planned his life for him, providing the best tutors possible for magical training and keeping him well indoctrinated in the corporate culture. This all came crashing down when he was confronted by an old friend of his birth parents: a shadowrunner named Barghest who helped them escape the very same corporation that was raising him now. Due to corporate brainwashing this took some convincing, but after being shown the truth about his drake heritage as well as irrefutable evidence that Hans Brackhaus had personally arranged for the murder of Jasper's parents and his subsequent reacquisition by SK his doubt turned into unbridled hatred. The first step was clear: Jasper needed to escape from SK's clutches. Barghest's team would create a fake kidnapping scenario, stealing Jasper away in the dead of night & ransoming him back to his family for an exorbitant fee. The ultimate goal of this was to "kill" Jasper Blake, using a borrowed cadaver and a good deal of explosives to fake his death. This plan would have worked flawlessly, except Barghest failed to inform his team of Jasper's drake heritage and thus they were unable to properly prepare for the increased security around him. In the process of kidnapping Jasper HTR troops under the direction of SK Prime were alerted and Barghest was killed in the escape. Despite this the rest of the plan went off without any further issues, though upon learning the truth the team blamed Jasper for Barghest's death and declined to offer him any further support, electing to stay as far away from him as possible.

Ultimately Jasper was unable to give up his grudge against SK, choosing to become a Shadowrunner under the name Rune Knight, hiding his identity under a helmet vaguely reminiscent of the style worn by medieval knights. Using the nuyen, network, and skills gained from his shadowrunning career he became a perpetual thorn in Saeder-Krupp’s side, reigniting their interest in acquiring or failing that, eliminating him.

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

- Dracoform (Western Drake)

- Mentor Spirit (Stag)

Negative

- Distinctive Style: Rune Knight always wears a full face helmet (comprised of a helmet and ballistic mask that slides in or an appropriate chem seal option) reminiscent of the style worn by medieval knights.

- Faceless: Rune Knight is paranoid about hiding his identity.

- Poor Self Control (Combat Monster/Thrill Seeker): Rune Knight is an adrenaline junkie at heart, and a run without stakes is barely worth running.

- Superhuman Psychosis: A combination of his corporate upbringing and later revulsion to all things corporate has turned Rune Knight into a man with little respect for anyone not directly useful to him, save those that share his very specific world view or earn his respect through their deeds.

- Wanted (Saeder-Krupp, 100k): Lofwyr wants to bend Rune Knight to his will or kill him for repeatedly targeting Saeder-Krupp. Whichever option presents itself first is acceptable. Other dragons looking for drake thralls are also interested in Rune Knight, though none as interested as Lofwyr.
