When young and living with his parents, he had dream of becomming a president, a firefighter, a cop, etc., just like any kid would. But since he's been living in the street and all, he doesn't dream anymore.

Some basic stuffs from the Blood Brothers, but mostly living in the street and by the Myst.
9. Where and how did your character get their major equipment and ‘ware?
When Myst was dead, by the crash of '64, he kept some of his and Myst's stuff for memory, but most equipment were sold, traded, bartered.

Before '64, with Myst in a small apartment, then mostly street, moving place to place. He just got an apartment near the Kirkland park.
12. Who are your character’s enemies? (How did they become your character’s enemies?)
At young age, he hated Orks and humanis club. Who wouldn't? Mob of Ork have killed his parents, when humanis club was to blame. So, he doesn't like one race club, whether if it's Ork or human and doesn't like Black Plague for their pro-meta ideas, although he doesn't think of them as enemy. He does hate, however, RN for killing a girl that looked like Myst.
13. For Awakened characters, how did your character learn their magic? For non-Awakened characters, how does your character feel about magic?
Magic, is some weird stuff. Can't understand it, don't want to deal with it, if it's possible. And what the hell is technomancers and their stuff?
Personality
14. What are your character’s personality quirks?
He is depressed person. So most times he'll be just alone, or wants to be left alone. When ask to speak, he'll only answer in short sentence, and keep quite most times. When ask to do something, he'll do. He'll do just that, though.
15. What are your character’s likes and dislikes?
He doesn't feel joy anymore. It's just been shut off from his emotion. Plus, being depressed, he really doesn't have interest in many things around him.
16. What is your character’s moral code?
Doesn't have any moral code. What's the use in the street, right?
17. Does your character have personal beliefs?
He doesn't belive in any religion. Although he believes there are somewhere that people go when they die.
18. What are your character’s personal motivations?
Personal motivation to live and survive in the street is because he wanted to meet Myst when he die and make her proud of him.
Running with the gang
19. Why does your character run with the gang?
Seeing how RN killed the girl that looked like Myst, they are just the number 1 on the enemy list. He may be depressed and have no interest around him, but he's no idiot. He knows who they are and how powerful enemy they are if you are living in the street. Logical thing to do is find the gang as powerful as they are and do the revenge, nearest gang for possibilty is either Outlanders or UV night, but Outlanders are too weak, and UV are for awakened only. Which leave the possibilty of newly formed gang, Ravens, which seems reasonable. Although they are weak now, but the leader have survived 2 gang war, and need to gain in numbers would make it easier for him to join.
20. When and how did your character join the gang?
He never have joined any gangs in the Redmond. Although he may have delt with one or another troughout the years.
21. How does your character contribute to the gang? What is his role; not just in terms of how he/she makes money, but where does he/she fit in the social hierarchy?
He'll be the one to produce the BTL, which bring the cash to the gang. Also because of his extended connection with the various people bring the rumors and infos out on the street. For social hierarchy, he is most likely treat as breadwinner for the gang.
22. What would make your character ever leave the gang?
He have seen what other gangs do to their member when they try to leave. Plus, he does have agenda to see the down fall of RN. If Ravens do bring the downfall of RN, he won't leave because, most likely, Raven will be the stronges gang in the neighbor. If Raven is defeated by the RN, or other gangs, well, he won't see the next day or just out on the street, again.
23. How does your character feel about their life in the gutter as part of a street gang? What is their view of the rest of the world? (i.e. Non-gangers)
Life in the street gang is really no difference to life living in the street. Only thing different is to follow some order. Hell, he have been given orders by Myst and followed that for several years, so what's the difference?
24. If your character could have their ideal life outside of the gang, describe what that ideal life would be.
Still living with Myst, in human form, do whatever we were doing in the past and have an easy life.
25. What ambitions does your character have for the gang as a whole? What ambitions does your character have for their place within the gang?
My ambition is to make the Ravens big and strong, so it could bring the RN to the bottom. For the place within the gang, I don't really have one right now, but may be later.
26. If your character is a recent addition from another gang, how does your character feel about joining a new gang? If your character is not a recent addition from another gang, how does your character feel about the new arrivals to the gang?
Life in the street gang is really no difference to life living in the street. Only thing different is to follow some order. Hell, he have been given orders by Myst and followed that for several years, so what's the difference?
27. How does your character view relationships within the gang, both romantic and friendship? How does your character view relationships outside the gang, both romantic and friendship?
He's little afraid of emotional connection with anyone, because everyone he liked/loved/cared have died.
29. What is your character’s attitude towards/view of the gang as a whole?
Gang, from the outside perspective, are big customer.
