Doctor Freya Rutherford

Age: 32

Occupation:

PhD MD in Biomechanical Engineering. Beginning, heading and inventing advances in Cybernetic Augmentations.

Current Project:

Doctor Rutherford is currently working on studying the advances in Cybernetic implants while trying to deepen her research to perhaps recreate organs either once removed or damaged. For example, if someone needs a kidney removed, instead of replacing it with a donors kidney, putting an organic/synthetic kidney in it's place. She is attempting this with her progressive study of her re-engineered nervous system. She wants to find a way to incorporate robotics but, without the reliance on Carletta so it will never fail. Though she is having difficulties finding a balance, she still continues her research almost obsessively.

Current augmentations:

Though she is the main and original engineer on the advances of Cybernetic augments she still only has a few augmentations. They include her right hand, with a robotic implant so advance, her fingers become a multi-tool of useful instruments such as tweezers, callipers, a small stethoscope like piece that sends heart rate frequencies from patients directly to her thoughts through a personal alteration to her neuro-chip, etc. Her only other augmentation is to her right eye and is relatively recent. Her right eye can "zoom" in and out on object like a microscope and detect heat signatures. This augment is currently unavailable to the general public. Her limited alterations allow her the freedom not to rely on Carletta.

Brief History:

Doctor Rutherford began her collage education earnestly, studying intently to the point of madness. Her final masters thesis and doctoral dissertation was on her original discovery of alterations to the nervous system. She did this with every intention of helping people, wanting people to live normal lives without the set-back of a disability. With her impressive discoveries she was hired on to continue her research on advances in prosthetic medicine at a company named CyboGenesis. This company worked primarily in robotics and prosthetics. Freya advanced relatively quickly as she continued working on her theories within the nervous system and positive feedback began coming in from successful operations. Her advances in medicine continued with the instillation of cybernetic augmentations to the point of what we know today. She does personal treatments for special cases so she can continue with her research and her original goal to help people.

Name: Isabelle Alstior



Age: 22
Height: 176 cm.

History:

Isabelle was always a cheery girl, taking life one step at a time with a smile. Even when things were hard, she never complained or felt angry at anyone. When she was born into a small family with an older brother, Wilhelm, who looked after her. It was a hard life and sometimes they wouldn't be able to afford even the simplest things, but they were happy all together at the least. But all of that changed when her mother was diagnosed with a rare strain of brain cancer. The treatment was expensive and her father worked extra jobs in order to pay for the medication. Even her brother sought out work, though only a teen. She would worry about him, but he always reassured her that it was worth anything to see their family together again. But it all came crashing down when a new trend started taking over many companies, whom outsourced labor for something much cheaper and easily sustainable. Machines. Their father was made jobless.

Unable to afford the costly drugs anymore, as they could barely even meals to begin with, she could only watch as her precious family was ripped apart by stress and frustration. What were once happy stories exchanged over supper, were now painful arguments between father and son, whom resorted to mental subsidies to relieve himself. Their mother would spend her last years locked in her room, withering away, kept barely conscious as the world fell around her. Wilhelm, once bright and inviting, would seclude himself from his friends and even his family, coldly deflecting any attempts of Isabelle's appeasement and comfort. Eventually he dropped out of school and left the house without word. He would be found a few months later, stabbed to death, his body wired with clunky, illegal augments, having made a new name for himself as a criminal and terrorist. This was not the only family this happened to. She couldn't even look at her father anymore, a husk of the man he used to be. The Purist movement would soon take shape as these angry souls gathered to find something to blame for their loss and suffering.

Becoming a sort of poster child for the campaign, she goes out of her way to expose augmentation for the wrongs it has done to herself and others, working as an internet celebrity and journalist. She is renown for acquiring secret files or information of important figures relating to augments in order to find proof of illegal and immoral intention to expose them to the public.
