Name: Elin
Age: 16
Appearance: He also has a small tail he keeps hidden for reasons he does not know
Occupation: Jumper
Personality: By nature his a very curious child, but the world does not have much to offer other than rooftops. He likes the sky, but he also likes being on the ground. Deep down inside he feels lonely, but being in the new world he does not understand what this is. He is very very quiet in general saying almost nothing at all, with the machines mostly having to interpret what he wants through facial and body language recognition as well as scans in the case of hunger or potential disease which is currently rare. He likes helping out where he can though he gets stopped by machines as this defeats their purpose which is to Protect and Serve as well as Rule the now plain human society. He is peaceful by nature but his slight animal instinct makes him act out different from others. The best way to describe his personality is cat-like.
History: In the far distant future technology and genetics have come a long way, in a free society which did not have political or other reasons to inhibit their progress, a disease broke out that struck women during pregnancy. This disease caused the loss of an important gene required in order to live and due to the loss of this gene they discovered only two ways to save these children. They were either made to live as part machine losing a large part of what made them human, or being spliced with an animal in the hopes that their body does not reject it.
In this free society there was no existence of money and the ideas of killing and so forth never even occurred to those living here. There were no true jobs and very few occupations as machines did nearly everything. They were cut off from the rest of the world as the politics had caused many troubles as well as the incident of the black sky.
Elin was born at a somewhat bad time, due to a deficiency inside his mother during her pregnancy they were forced to perform one of the few experimental procedures which were frowned upon. The option to create a cybernetic artificial replacement to keep the child was declined by the parents who wanted a normal child, or as normal as they could get. While the machines had no feelings there logic was to maintain life so it was approved. His genes were spliced with a nearby cat who sadly had to die in order for this child to be born. If the cat lived the genes would reject the child, however with the host dead the only hope for the survival of the genetic code of the cat was to allow itself to be assimilated into the child. Gene splicing was common and its effects varied from full blown mutation to minor characteristics like cat ears and a tail so to speak
While gene splicing came with risks it made him less inclined to just lay around doing nothing, so he decided to become a Jumper. There were not many things you could do anymore other than becoming a Runner, Jumper or Walker. A runner runs all over the place just running for the sake of running, a walker just walks around aimlessly, but a jumper runs,walks and most of all jumps roof tops. This was most probably influenced by his cat dna or maybe it was just a coincidence.
He has good reflexes and good balance along with some really good hearing, but none of these matter in a world where a machine will fly down and catch you at any time, and almost no harmful noises exist within the new world let alone sounds that even matter anymore. The world was bland and dead with peace and technology as the height of mankind at the time, however the boy who just jumped and ran and jumped some more, finally jumped and before he knew it, he had no idea where he was.
