Personality: James Masters is perhaps the smartest man alive in respects, he is fully capable of doing full mathematical equations in his head just for fun. Born with a photographic memory he is one of very high tastes and at the same time is very grounded and down to earth. He does not believe in religion of any kind for his mind is highly grounded in science and not fiction. James has a very varied personality in a lot of ways, in one sense he is this cold get the job done perfectionist and in the other he is a fun loving guy who cracks jokes and does not mind throwing back a few drinks. A great friend to anyone who gets to know him and also a great listener he is the one guy you want in your corner when times are most dire. Not easily discouraged James is very reliable in intense situations and is not one to crack under pressure. He is in the plainest terms an enigma, his brain is like a fifty thousand piece puzzle and no one has ever been able to fully put it together.
Position Held: Owner of Matrix Inc.
Position overview: Unlike most owners of huge corporations James takes on a very large role within his company. He is completely hands on when it comes to the technology of his company and spends most of his life working either in a lab or in an office at the main headquarters. The lead designer in Technological Advancement in the company most of his time is spent maintaining peak efficiency within the Matrix itself. James is also one of the only people whom is qualified to enter the Matrix itself with knowledge of the outside world, which he has done on more then one occasion. His job is to keep the Matrix running inside and out to keep the real world safe.
Matrix Corporation Details: Matrix Inc. was formed and funded in 2003 by James Masters and a wealthy investor by the name of Rick Delaoy. The Company quickly became the leader in advanced technology in the greater world, technology that delved heavily into AI (artificial intelligence) and visual reality. By the late 2010's Matrix Inc has all but revolutionized the way humans lived and worked in their daily lives with various advancements to our everyday electronics. The human era in the United States had reached a golden age by 2015 and was on the brink of becoming the most technological advanced nation in no short due to Matrix Inc. It is undisclosed but in or around 2020 Matrix Inc stumbled upon their biggest break through not only in the field of AI but also in the field of Virtual realities. However due to unforeseen or known circumstances both of these fields were halted in 2022 and Matrix Inc became a private company, the main building located in Los Angela's fell off the map as other institutions were opened across the Western Seaboard continuing their research into more advanced technology to improve our daily lives. No one except the the inner most employees ever knew what happened at the main institute in Los Angela's, but to this day it has been closed off completely from the outside world and only very few people including James Masters the company founder and owner is seen entering or exiting the facility.
Birthplace: Phoenix, Arizona
Early Life: James Masters was born into a broken life in the year of 1982 to a crack addicted mother and a father who was almost constantly drunk. He spent most of his life as an only child locked in a small 4x4 closet like room where he was safest from his parents. Born with a photographic memory he became very intelligent very quickly, often times sneaking out of his house when his parents were indisposed to go to the local library to read. At the age of ten James entered into the system when his mother overdoses and his father went into a drunken rage and nearly beat him within an inch of his life. After this unfortunate turn of events James bounced around from home to home never staying in one foster care for too long. By the age of thirteen he had already passed through his high school courses and moved onto college with a full scholarship at M.I.T where he began his career in technology that would advance the world beyond its limits.
Family: James Masters has no surviving family in his life at this moment, his father died in prison shortly after James became part of the legal system and any other blood ties never existed. James has never been married nor does he have any children in the world that he knows of. His only real family is the men and woman who work with him at his facility in Los Angela's and Rick Delaoy whom he has considered like a brother, although their connection to each other is not really a highly known subject.
Affiliations within the Matrix: James has often been within the Matrix itself as his alter residual image James Marsters also known as Spike from the hit show Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He often appears within the Matrix to keep an eye on his creation and to keep thing in check within the program itself. He is very much like a ghost within the programming and often times his appearance is merely and act of control to keep the illusion of the Matrix real and intact without knowledge from anyone or anything within the program itself. His affiliations are only inward Matrix related he has never visited the world of Zion, the Matrix existing outside the core Matrix.
Roleplay Explanation for Out of Character Reference: Okay for those of you wondering this roleplay is based off of a script I read for another Matrix movie, maybe some of you have read it maybe not. The general jist of it is there is a Matrix within a Matrix. So in round sights, Zion is a Matrix to and is not real but was another world formed to keep the illusion that there is a computer based world and there is then a real world which is destroyed. We find out that the Matrix was actually formed when the AI technology as depicted within the Matrix became too intelligent and destroyed the human world. In reality this really did happen however the AI robots which destroyed the world within the Matrix illusion are actually slaves themselves, fearing what the AI machines could do they were inserted in the Matrix to keep them under control until such a time could come when the situation could be dealt with and at the same time not lose so precious technology in the process. So in a nutshell while in the Matrix there are hundreds of thousands of machines and a machine city, in reality there is only one machine, a super computer with very high intelligence that has been induced within the Matrix so that it could never have a chance to bring destruction to the actual human world. I am currently looking for some dedicated Roleplayers to get this story going, once I have some interest I will explain the actual storyline in more detail, for now I am just testing the waters to see if this will even interest anyone. If there are any questions please ask.
