"A shot of Nobel, and a shot of bourbon, please." -Rhys noted to the Osprey, which darted off, now convinced these two were going to be completely drunk by the time they left.- "Hmm...Well, I don't know a ton about you other than your name and occupation.

So I learned to flip them all off and live my own life. Being a computer genius, I was always seen as a weirdo. Only guy that ever accepted me was Cid, and he vanished. That was when I was seven. I don't remember much afterwards, only the more fun moments I experienced whilst doing my job. Heck, I don't remember the date, time or year, how old I am, what my parents were called or looked like, or even the name of my Kubrow. If I hadn't gone here, I might even have forgotten my own name..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There, I met my best friend, Ambrose. He saved my life, I saved his, he helped me adapt to civilian life post-War, and then we were put into the Dream. And, well, cryostasis. Then we skip to the modern age. Woke up. Found my old gear. Fought all the way to Uranus. ...Then Ambrose got killed. A Manic. ...I'm not going into details. Partly out of anger, partly out os a desire to avenge Ambrose, and partly due to anarchy taking over for a bit there, I joined with the Red Veil. The rest, as they say, is history."
