Vitals
Handle: Vice.
Name: Riley Travis
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: ¼ Caucasian, ½ Afro-america, ¼ Brazilian. Features are surgically enhanced to look stern and germanic, in stark contrast to his complexion.
Metatype: Human
Nationality: CAS

Date of Birth: April 3rd, 2041
Place of Birth: Jacksonville, Florida, CAS.
Height: 6’1� (1.8542m)
Weight: 206lbs (93.44kg)
Eyes: Originally brown. Cybereyes are usually kept replicating his original eye color.
Hair: Normally black. Currently not applicable. Vice shaves his head every morning.
Distinguishing marks: His upper left arm is branded with the insignia of his Air Assault regiment. There’s a barcode tattooed on the back of his neck, though the code is gibberish and doesn’t match the checksum. There’s a tattoo on his abdomen of a cartoon jaguar’s severed head with Xs for eyes.
Build: At a glance, Vice looks like just another narcissistic suit who spends two hours a day at the health club, plays tennis or racquetball three or four times a week, and spends his weekends on the golf course.

History:
Riley Travis was born in Jacksonville, Florida, in an Ares Macrotechnology enclave. Both parents were loyal company employees, and he grew up in the “baseball, mom, and apple pie� corporate culture of Ares. After high school, company career counselors determined that continuing his education was a “dubious� investment and instead recommended that he either apply to the Knight Errant academy or join Ares Arms security force.

In an act of reckless teenage defiance, he joined the CAS Army, where he spent eight years jumping out of helicopters on both sides of the border in South Texas. His impulse control problems kept him out of the higher echelons of special operations, but his physical and mental toughness, coupled with his forceful personality made him an exemplary infantry NCO.

In 2067, he was honorably discharged as a staff sergeant with three bronze stars for valor and a fourth for meritorious service.

After his honorable discharge, he was contacted by a Saeder-Krupp Prime recruiter. After some elective augmentation and cosmetic surgery, he was assigned to the Miami office as a “problem solver�. By the end of his first year, he’d made a reputation for himself in the shadows of the Carib League smuggling capitol.

In the winter of 2071, a new director took over his office and began purging the department of loose cannons and potential problems. Rather than getting fired or cleaned for his reckless personal life, Travis turned in his resignation and fled to Macao, where he went to work for a private security contracting firm called Proactive Security Solutions. After six months as a bodyguard and counter-insurgency specialist on the Indochinese Penninsula, he went completely black and moved into the Hong Kong shadows. After a year of shooting people in the face for money, he went global and started doing work all over the Pacific Rim.

Travis remains estranged from his family. He broke ties with his parents when he went to work for Saeder-Krupp rather than return to the Ares fold. They’re now retired and still in Jacksonville, berating his sister about why they don’t have any grandchildren yet. He hasn’t spoken to his older sister Kathleen since he left Miami. She is an Ares fleet helicopter pilot in Manhattan, and spends her days chauffeuring executives and VIPs around.

Terrence Forester was born in 2028 (which makes him 45 now a days), in the small working class town of Gary, Indiana. During his entire childhood, Terrence couldn't quite understand why all the other kids had moms, and he didn't. All he had was his old man, a steel mill worker, who did very little to raise his child. For starters, he didn't find Terrence as useful as a scotch bottle... altought he did make for a good punching bag. It wasn't until his teens that Terrence finally understood why his mother wasn't around. What smarts he had, he had no doubt gotten from her. Only a bright woman could have anticipated the situation, packed her bags and left. All Terrence knows of her is what he has been told by his father. No pictures. No memories. Just stories. Taking it from him, she left when he was still a toddler because she was a junkie and a hooker. Nowadays, he doesn't even think of her anymore. He doesn't curse her anymore. All the self pity he had is dead and gone.

Because, probably like her, Terrence is a survivor. First and foremost, what is important to him is his survival. During his entire childhood, Terrence suffered beatings from his father, who's behavior sometimes got so out of controls that, thanks to neighbors, got his kid sent to foster homes. Back and forth it went. When Terrence was 11 years old, he discovered what he still believes is the true nature of people. Brought along for a wild ride by his biggot father, on the Night of the Rage, Terrence witnessed the lynching of several metahuman families. The day after his 15th birthday, now a teenager, Terrence ran away from home, hitching a rides and train hopping around the country until he made it to Boston. There, as a street urchin, he lived for about 8 months, all on his own, before being picked up by the local cops... and sent back home, to be taught a lesson. When Terrence finally hit 18, he moved back to Boston and started work as a security guard, holding night shifts in various corporate housings facilities around town. Maybe it was because of the lawlessness of Gary's street, maybe it was because he wanted to make the work a better place for others, of maybe it was just so he could finally feel powerful and in control... Terrence wouldn't say... he never said why he started attending Lonestar Training Courses. In 2048, now 20 years old, Terrence Forest became a patrolman for Lonestar. Odds are, he could've had a brilliant career. Maybe he would have made it big. Who knows.

But things have a way of not always going the way they should. Still a very bitter young man, and in dire need of more money than regular patrol pay would bring in, Terrence began to turn a blind eye to many crimes: that is, when he was paid the right amount. Introduced to the world of the corrupt cop by his senior partner, Terrence began a bright career a crooked cop. In 2053, he did his very first contract hit. Some local mafia outfit had decided a local gang leader was getting a little too big. That day, said ganger was busted by a boy in blue. Two days later, his body turned up on the river bank: plastic zip tie around his wrists and a single .22 at the back of the head. Terrence got paid, and well. For him, it was the beginning of a new lifestyle. He was living twenty times the life a regular cop could enjoy. And he liked it. He liked it a great deal. At 29 years old, Terrence passed the Detective Exam with flying colors, and began working for Homicide. Great contacts acquired through his work in the underworld made him rise fast. After all, what syndicate wouldn't want a great detective on their payroll. His fast rising earned him the ire of another detective, Brad Sullivan. Sullivan quickly became jealous of Terrence's success, and the rivalry that blossomed between the two man was everything but friendly. Throughout his entire carreer as a cop, Terrence was kept on the payroll of almost every major criminal outfit on the UCAS sea coast. He wasn't just good at bending the rules, feeding information and planting evidence. Where he truly shined was in the hits he could perform. His charming attitude, his good looks and the way he had with people (that and a badge) meant he could go almost everywhere. He always had the perfect cover, and sometimes even ended up investigating the very murders he had himself committed.

Everything went smooth until 2063, when somewhere along the foodchain, a guy who knew a guy who knew a guy who was an undercover cop heard about this hitman detective. Tipped off by one of his fellow bent cop, Terrence wasn't at his place when Sullivan and his partner, now working for Internal Affairs showed up with a warrant. It took them a full year to track him all the way down to Austin. When Sullivan and his partner finally caught Terrence, it was supposed to be the high point of his carreer. Brad Sullivan had caught THE dirty cop; the detective who thought he was so smart he could get away with everything.

Arrogance and pride would prove to be Sullivan's undoing. Wanting all the glory for himself and his partner, they decided to bring Terrence in themselves. Caught flatfooted, Terrence surrendered without a fight, letting Sullivan cuff him. Not an hour later, Sullivan's partner had gotten his jugular sliced, and the ceramic knife Terrence had been hiding was now in Sullivan's eye... all the way to the handle.

Since then, Terrence has been “living the life of a hitman� to the very best of his abilities. He's taken contracts all over North America, and gotten to people who thought they were untouchable. When Sullivan, now obsessed with vengeance, almost caught him again in 2068, Terrence went into hiding, coming out in 2071. By that time, he had blew most of his money on a luxurious lifestyle, and had very little left to “start over�. A few months before the new year, to cover his growing living expenses, Terrence borrowed heavily from Seattle's Mafia.

2064-2073: Life of a hitman

Contrary to what a lot of people might think, and to what rumors have stated, Terrence is rather physically unimpressive. Not particularly tall, or physically imposing, Terrence would easily be described as “average� in many respects. His hair is always kept short, usually following the corporate executive trend of the month, and was probably black or dark brown until is started to get peppered with bits of gray. Terrence's age is also somewhat difficult to peg down. Although the bits of gray hair tend to betray him, as well as the look in his eyes, he could be anywhere from early 30s to mid 40s. With a square jaw, no signs of wrinkles and piercing natural looking blue eyes, Terrence is a rather good looking man. That, coupled with his natural charisma and confidence tend to make him attractive.
Unless he needs to pass for someone else, Terrence will usually opt to wear suits, varying mostly on the main theme of “gray�.

Before everything else, Terrence is a suvivor. He will always do what he needs to survive. This, in a way, makes him a very dangerous person. Greedy and egocentric, Terrence will usually tend to put himself before others, a thing he does without even thinking about. What Terrence does have going for him is that he is an excellent liar, and understands people very well to a certain extent... even though he probably cannot genuinely “feel� for others. He also fancies himself something of a “philosopher�, freely expressing his disgust for the situation of the current world.

Technomancer Resonance Stream: Sourceror

Sprites: Code, Courier, Crack, Data, and Machine

Similar to those hermetic magicians who view magic as a physical force with predictable
laws and consequences, sourcerors view Resonance as the true machine code of the Matrix,
which only they are able to understand. From their perspective, they use complex forms
as interfaces to program the machine code. Sprites are thought of as sentient programs,
embodied subroutines similar to agents that can be commanded and directed like any other
program. Sprites compiled by sourcerors often resemble sculpts of commercially available
agent programs.

Positive Qualities (30BP):

Analytical Mind (5BP)
Frank has always distinguished himself academically, but in the Barrens, even in

Little Dublin, a good education is hard to come by. Still, he is possesed of a shrewd

mind well suited to finding patterns where others might not.

Linguist (5BP)
From childhood Frank was encouraged to immerse himself in other languages, and to

embrace the cultures they came from. While there wasn't much in the way of culture back

home, he has a nack for languages which has served him well in the battlefield.

Restricted Gear: Security Armor (5BP)
When Frank left Ares' service, he took with him his armor as part of his

'severence package.'

Technomancer (5BP)
Frank's Emergence came almost a full year after the Crash 2.0, and almost went

unnoticed. He had written it off as feedback from his implants at first, but he has since

come to embrace the gifts given to him by whichever Fate saw fit to weave his tale.

Negative Qualities (-35BP):

Bad Rep (-5BP)
Ares' 3rd Recon Division - dubbed the Spectres - used to be spoken of with

respect in military circles national and corporate. They were amongst the top performers

in the Desert Wars since their inception, and had exemplary mission and conduct records.

Sadly the actions of a few can sully the name of many. In a very publicized event, two

members of the Spectres accosted and raped a local woman, drawing the media's eye to the

division and a series of what were seen as questionable events. Forget that Frank's own

record was spotless - he was a Spectre, and you know how they were.

Prejudiced: Biased - Civilians (-10BP)
Call it old habits dying hard, but there is a certain arrogance that comes with

being in the military. You know your job, you get it done under the harshest of

conditions, and you get it done right. You just can't trust a civillian to get the job

done when the pressure is on.

Records on File: Ares (-10BP)
Frank remains listed as an Ares corporate asset, able to be called upon for

missions should they need him. He is not a company man, however. He is an on the books

military consultant, and a member of the corporation's reserve forces.

SINner: UCAS/Ares (-10BP)
Frank maintains citizenship in both the UCAS, where he served for five years

prior to being scouted by Ares military, and with Ares Macrotechnology.

Contact Name Loyalty Connection

Sgt Orsino Tignanelli 3 3
Orsino 'The Bear' Tignanelli is a lovable Italian lug with a strong... family...

background. He and Frank did two tours together before Frank signed on with Ares (Ors

won't let him live down the fact he sold out). Being as he grew up in a shady background,

Ors isn't adverse to shifting around some cargo every now and then for his pal.

For example (having put a little more thought into my role now) Spooky will be creating some sort of ward prior to departing the office, just so he knows if anyone comes snooping around while we're gone. He will also remove our astral signatures from the office if he can (Have to look at the mechanics of that).
