NAME :Ethan J. Blaine
EDUCATION :B.A. Computer Science, Chell University
Ethan got into programming in his teen years. He studied it at college and was the first in his family to go to university. Hes fluent in the 3 main programming languages and can pick up others on the fly. He even custom built his own ICE breaker using code from 3 commercially available ones. Usually programmers have to make a choice between connection speed and security. Ethan is determined to have both, so he rebuilds everything he gets to optimise it.

A B I L I T I E S :Shrike "Blur":X1 Ethan had to save up and has just bought the Shrike "Blur": X1, This fibre optic upgraded nervous system allows for incredibly fast movements and reaction times. However there is a limit to which his muscles can go before they run out of energy, requiring him to go and down numerous sports drinks and energy bars.
Traceur: Parkour. Ethan has been a traceur since he was about 12. He was in on the parkour scene where he grew up playing on construction sites. Even then he had some idea that it would prove useful later in his life. His parkour name was "Satchell" as chosen by his peers.
Phenotype Edge: Blaines ancestors have been through hell and come out clean and smiling. His earlier ancestors, when they were taken from Africa. His father, in the US army. Fighting is a tradition, weather its in a war or just fighting to survive. Whenever he takes heavy wound, it only counts as light wounded.
"My fathers tricks of the trade" Ethans father was a Sergeant-Major in the US army. He was the leader of a special unit that conducted counter-terrorist and anti smuggling operations that would take him all over the world. He didn't talk much about his work, but he was a strict father and taught Ethan what he could about warfare. He couldn't have predicted the way the world would change.
Ethan is proficient in all manor of standard issue rifles, and even a few designer ones. However he is talented most with pistols and can push a good pistol to the limits of what their capable of. He is also proficient in breaking any lock (headlock, arm lock etc) someone puts on him with a well known martial arts move. Judo, Karate, Aikido, Boxing, Krav-Maga.
Mild OCD: Everything in Ethans possession is immaculately ordered and completely dust free. His hard drives, his server towers and even the code that he writes. This may infact be a mild form of OCD but it has its benefits: When writing a program such as a custom ICE breaker, it takes him 1/4 longer but the finished product counts as one quality level higher.
