Editing Vulture Committee: Will Aberley (section)

== Notes ==
Will is a well regarded member of “SciNet” – a dispersed community of scientists and investigators into the unnatural and the invading AI; motives vary but in general they are intent on finding out what they can about it, trying to communicate with the AI, and coexisting with it and the unnatural. They are ostensibly independent of any established “official” groups. Membership by invitation, communication is pseudonymous, though in rare cases members do meet in person. No guarantees that they have not been hacked/infiltrated, or that individual members may not have ulterior motives. Provides access to a pool of knowledge/resource on the unnatural and the AI, and potential contacts/information on areas where contacts are based.

He has an interest in Glassblowing/crafting which originated from work with lab. glassware, and developed into fascination with glass and crafting the vessels etc needed for lab work. He took that into a hobby/sideline in glassblowing/crafting – this has resulted in very good lung capacity/breathing control. Resources may include tools/raw materials for this and/or crafted glass vessels for taking samples in the field, and/or creating glass melded with materials retrieved from hotzones.

Will is skilled in stickfighting – this came from membership of various stickfighting societies at university, which he originally joined for fun and exercise. You can always find a good stick, and they are also useful for poking things, testing or moving cables etc etc. Will would probably expect to have, or be able to improvise, a fighting stick of some sort.

He has also gained skill since the collapse with slings/slingshots, near silent weapons not requiring specialist ammunition and useful in addition for hunting small animals; he can make glass marbles as ammunition and has experimented with making these “special” by embedding symbols based on recurring patterns seen in hotzones or melding changed materials with the glass.
