Name: Everyone knows him as Soul, his real name is unknown. (Ethan Koss)
Age: Unknown (25)
Class: Infiltrator
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Personality:
He is quite a calm, and
very silent character. He prefers to listen than throw in his two credits, as the saying goes. You will often find him staring out into space in thought with his hands behind his back, reminiscing on his past contracts. He enjoys hunting his targets, but he cares little for their guards that get in his way. As such, he ends up leaving a large amount of bodies of armed men, which has become this trademark of sorts. He also has little respect for people who use cloaks, he believes them to be cowardly, rather than fight in honourable combat face-to-face.
If you do talk about his previous contracts, he will throw a few "murder" puns in there, such as: A pirates job can be messy... I heard it can be quite... cut-throat.
Appearance:
He stands at a good 6 foot, and has (what appears to be) an athletic build. His head and face is burnt to cinders, giving him a ghoulish appearance, which is why he always keeps it covered. Soul's voice is deep and electronicly modified due to his mask, as if someone was trying to hide their true voice while speaking through an omni-tool comm. He is also left handed.
Unique Marks: Look at his head and face when he has his mask and hood off. There's a unique mark for you.
Gear:
Modified Black Robe Elite Armour
(View appearance for image)
Originally a stealth robe, this suit was modified by Soul by removing the original stealth field generator (it took quite a bit of space on the torso since it was a powerful piece of equipment) and replacing it with ballistic plating underneath the artificial leather, and a small shield generator. Making this menacing outfit into armour which can be compared to medium armour, but without the arm and leg protection, which adds to mobility as well.
Black Robe Forearm Sword
Made of the finest materials this Galaxy has to offer, this light weight blade is attached to the forearm, capable of cutting through the toughest ballistic fabrics (located on the neck and limb joint areas). The blade can retract into the sleeves for concealment, as well as the handle.
Wrist Mounted Reloaders
(No image available)
The Wrist Mounted Reloaders are exactly what it says on the tin. Pistol reloaders mounted on the wrist, hidden in the sleeves, that are designed to hold 5 thermal clips and reduce 50% on reload time, especially when dual wielding.
G-CX Custom Machine Pistol
A weapon only available to the Black Robes, it has an intriguing "bottom-loader" design, where thermal clips are loaded through the bottom of the handle. It has three firing modes: Semi-Auto, 2-burst, and Auto. It only fires Shredder Ammunition, and is also very accurate at short to medium range. A skilled Black Robe can fire this weapon with great precision. It can fire 16 shots before a thermal clip is depleted.
Biotic/Tech talents: If you want him to open the most secure door in the galaxy, he can do it, given some time. Anything else? Don't bother asking.

>|Codename: Soul
>|Name and surname: Unknown
>|Place of Birth: None known. In fact, his records of his past prior to being sighted during the assassination attempt of Markus Siemens, as well as other sightings, are either false, or have been deleted.
>|Criminal Record: His record is non existent despite him possibly being part of several key murders on multiple planets. His record could have possibly been tampered with. He was possibly part of the infamous Black Robes, but that is currently unknown. More information needed via interview.
>|NOTE- The Black Robes are an extremely secretive and very infamous group of assassins that have been rumoured to have successfully completed contracts on key politicians, military commanders, and in certain occasions, select civilian targets. Rumoured to have received contracts from Cerberus. It is believed that Cerberus have destroyed all Black Robe Sanctuaries due to a contract gone wrong. But it is possible that the Black Robes are still operating somewhere in Council Space.
>|Speculated contracts:
>|A batarian ambassador was attacked and killed in the Citadel Presidium Park, his protection detail included (consisting of 6 guards). The ambassador was due to have a meeting with the Council that day concerning possible aid against slavery on the batarian homeworld. The meeting could have been successful if it was not for his untimely demise. Autopsy showed that he died from a shot to the head, Shredder Ammunition being used in this case. Further forensics found thermal ejection residue on the batarian's forhead, suggesting he was executed at point-blank range. The security cameras had been put on a loop, hiding the moment of the assassination.
>|36 armed mercenary personnel of both Blood Pack and Eclipse groups were found dead after a firefight was heard in the new docking bay that was still under construction on Omega. It was believed that the two mercenary groups were planing an arms deal with "four suspicious men in black robes", as stated by witnesses and mercenary survivors. One of our agents questioned Aria T'Loak on the events. She didn't reveal much, as she so stated "I know fuck all about them. Apart from the fact that they show up on Omega often, causing problems for both the mercs... and me. And everyone on Omega knows not to fuck with me. They have balls, and are an elusive bunch, I'll give them that.".
>|An Aurora Corporation executive was killed by, what witnesses have stated, "A man in black robes". The Commander has shown concern and ordered an immediate investigation into both the death of the executive and the mysterious assassin. The cameras had once again, been put on a loop. But we still managed to trace the man who ordered the hit. Alan Kahn, a Chief Scientist in Aurora, who ordered the hit on the grounds that the executive had slept with Mr.Kahn's wife. Kahn also mentioned that he also requested a second hit on his wife, which had also been completed by the same assassin. Mr.Kahn identified the assassin solely by his codename "Soul", and described him as "a strange, silent man who preferred to listen, than to talk. He was dressed in a hooded black robe and what looked like a black Carbon Mask.". Kahn had payed "Soul" a substantial sum of 20000 credits with a credit chit. He never transferred the money to any off-world bank account, making "Soul" even harder to trace. Aurora Corporation have taken over the investigation, with Mr.Kahn currently in their custody. It was uncovered that the deceased executive was also revealing classified information to other corporations, breaching protocol. In the end, Soul did Aurora a favor without even realizing it.
>|Commander Markus Siemens was killed on-board his own ship "The Redemption" in orbit of Noveria. Only a day prior, his decoy was poisoned during a dinner party on Noveria. The decoy was killed with a spiked alcoholic drink, the extra substance being an alien plant that caused instant death upon ingestion. The assailant escaped, killing 12 of the decoy's guards. A full Cerberus operation ensued to destroy all Black Robe Sanctuaries in the Terminus Systems. The following day, the real Commander Markus Siemens was killed on the bridge of the ship just as it took orbit. Including most of the military units on-board. The assassin escaped via escape pod and crash landed on one of the Blades of Aurora landing pads. He did not resist arrest.
>|Despite our utmost efforts to convince the Second-In-Command otherwise, he was impressed with the assassin's abilities, and offered him a more long-term contract, and to be assigned to "The Polaris" ASAP. Soul, accepted the contract, as he stated in agreement "the pay seems substantial.".

Unknown History: There are plenty of contracts that the Blades have been unable to trace directly to Soul, dozens of them. Talk to him and he might reveal a few.
