Doe: Korona[edit]
- Race: Augmented (Aug)
- Rank: Novice
- Background: Experimental Soldier
- Company Affiliation:
Backstory
Once upon a time, Korona could have been an ordinary woman. In fact she was. Before a series of unfortunate circumstance placed her in debt of one of the larger companies. She could have ran, perhaps but her own honourable accord prevented her from doing so and after quite a few cyber enhancements she became a cyborg soldier for the corporation, used both as a bodyguard and simple intimidation tactic.
She does not speak a lot but prefers to watch and listen and act when necessary. Her facial features are obscured by a full helmet and her body is quite obviously enclosed in armour, making her seem a lot more machine than human. She likes it that way.

Both parents passed when he was 15, currently lives with his grandmother in assisted housing. The accident that took his parents life also cost his his left leg, but due to his anemia, no cybernetics have ever been able to take with his system. Eventually he had to resort to outdated prosthetics, but with current 3d printing technology he can print custom shells for his joint mechanics. Getting the internship is a big deal for the Frizzles and it helps him support his grandmother, but like any kid comping into good steady money, he saved up and his first splurge was a brand new CyberDeck.... which he immediately defaced with holo-stickers
In his free time he skateboards at a local park to try and help relax. Bring the oldest around usually he has assumed the on site scrapes and scratches guy and usually has Medi-Gel in his bag if things get really bad

Wyzard: Vincent Blackwell[edit]
- Race: Psyker (ESPer)
- Rank: Novice
- Background: Operative
- Company Affiliation: Prism Group
BACKSTORY
Vincent comes from bad circumstances, and his devout wish is to never go back to that kind of lifestyle. He plans to trade on his competence, professionalism, and reputation to earn a life where he has respect and financial stability.
Vincent Blackwell is a psychic operative working for the Prism Group, an old-money venture capital enterprise that was taken over by hip futurist billionaires and morphed into a data/analytics- and tech-focused conglomerate. The corporate culture there presumes that heavy chrome style cybernetics are gauche and retrograde, so they're focusing on less-invasive technologies. They think they can disrupt the market if they make something that everyone wants and almost everyone can afford. And that probably collects an absurd amount of data.
Vincent's careful, not terrifically combat-oriented, and has mostly mental powers. He tries to play a subtle game in the field, because he isn't going to win a wrestling match with some cybered-up street samurai. He aspires towards tailored suits and tries not to get his hands dirty. Is very serious about professionalism. Might resign someday, but would be extremely loathe to actually burn an employer.
