204,920 - 30,000 = 174,920 NY spent = 35 BP on gear History Born and raised in the slums of Shoreditch, part of the East End district of The Smoke (London). While his mum tried to raise him to be a good lad, falling in with a bad crowd was nearly inevitable with the decided lack of alternatives. The Mudlarks had committed minor crimes and had a few small run ins with the law when they got "lucky" and were noticed by one of the established local crime families. Their big break was, in fact, a suicide decoy mission. Now Bax was never the strongest, fastest or smartest of the gang. He was however the most perceptive and this saved his life that night, but just barely. Wounded he was unable to escape the sec guards but was able to send his mum a goodbye message before he was captured. Phyllise Waterhouse was not about to see her boy get chewed up by the corporate penal system so she called her brother Bob to see if he could help. As luck would have it Bob, a longtime sergeant in Conrad's Conquerers knew that the head London Security Solutions, where Bax was incarcerated, was a friend of "The Old Man". It took a couple weeks to convince Conrad a 16 year old street punk might be an asset, but in the end the company bought Bax's sentence and his record was expunged. Bax worked as a gofer and learned the ropes until he was deemed fit to join a platoon where he served the rest of his sentence/indenture with distinction, the two weeks in prison having given him a deep appreciation for the second chance he was given. Not signing on as a regular never crossed his mind and he's worked for the company ever since.
Personality Friendly to his mates if a bit crude at times. Wary of anyone not in the company, sometimes to the point of hostility. All ways interested in a friendly wager and is usually a sport if he looses. A bit informal, a tendency that has cost him promotions.
Appearance 5'10" 220 lbs Caucasian, build is stocky but not ripped. Brown hair kept in a buzz cut, face clean shaven. Natural looking gray cybereyes. The skin on the right side of his face is the pink of fresh out the vat replacement, compliments of a recent encounter with an automatic shotgun.
Edit: added appearance and changed wep as shotgun cannot have gas vent
Edit: spent karma, unless DY says otherwise, finished version.
