When you were a child, you always seemed to have an edge on
your playmates. Whatever the sport, you naturally excelled at it. Your talent
was the source of much pride from your wage-slave parents, but they never
suspected what you truly were. After you single-handedly killed a pack of
devil rats that had gotten loose in your apartment building (your corporation
had a lab in the same building), you were tested for magical aptitude and
declared an adept. When your parents' bosses got wind of your aptitude, they
"convinced" your parents to send you into the corporation's adept
training school. Your life at the school was relatively good until you learned
that your parents had been killed by critters that had escaped from the same
lab that the devil rats had come from. Enraged that the corporation had not
done more to prevent such a catastrophe, you ran away from the school. Unfortunately
with the corporation close on your heels (they had an exclusive contract with
you), the only work you could find was in the "less than legal"
world. Surprisingly enough, there was a rather large demand for someone with
your talents...
You are a fairly jovial individual. While you do hold a lot
of grief over your family's death, you generally cover it up under a freewheeling
lifestyle. The one time when you are at terms with your grief, is when you
are hunting an awakened animal. Every kill is a sort of therapy for you. Mentally
you blame all such critters for your hidden pain and take great joy at their
termination or capture. Someday, you hope to get revenge on your old corporation.
Your generally take jobs involving the termination of critters
in one form or another. You prefer if hunting the beast is the primary goal
of the operation, but you aren't all that picky. Indeed, some of your most
lucrative jobs involve neutralizing an installation's critter defenses. Your
real talent is in your ability to do your job in a variety of manners. You
are the master of both the silent (using your phys-ad abilities) and the loud
(using far less subtle weapons) takedowns.
