Michael had a plan. He thought it was a good plan.

However, he was too late. By the time he had caught up with the rest of the group, they had already thrown themselves into battle. "Hey, wait- aw, God damn it..." It was too late to stop them, as the battle had already begun. Letting out a sigh, he raised his rifle up, looking over the battlefield. 

His companions had thrown themselves into the thick of it, and were currently attacking robot and rabbid alike. Scanning the rabbids, he soon found the supporter, throwing out healing to his allies. If he was allowed to continue, it would stall their advance. Breathing in, he entered Bullet Time again, focusing his crosshairs on the rabbid medic. He exhaled, and pulled down on the trigger. A loud BOOM! once again echoed throughout the area as he fired on the supporter. While the creature wasn't the most visibly threatening enemy, taking it out would allow his allies to fight the enemies without having to deal with them getting up again.

Alright, finally finished my CS. I was inspired by @TheGrundlesnart's CS, and used a similar "document" style.

Background

Appearance

Backstory
Subject 825 was homeless and residing in the Philadelphia area with his twin brother, Evan Wharton, when first identified by Daedalus agents. Both twins were identified as having high latent psionic potential, and a capture team was deployed. While the capture team succeeded in incapacitating Subject 825, his twin managed to evade capture.

Due to his high psionic potential, Evan Wharton is marked as a high-value target. He has evaded multiple capture attempts, and his current whereabouts are unknown. Subject 825 has proven unwilling to divulge any information regarding his brother's possible location.

This interview was conducted three days after initial capture. Subject 825 is marked with S, and the interviewer is marked with I.

I: Hello, Jared.

Subject does not respond.

I: I need you to cooperate with me, Jared. We're not going to get anywhere otherwise.

S: How do you know my name? Who the hell are you people, anyways? CIA? KGB? 

I: That's not important.

S: Not- not important? I think it's pretty fucking important, considering you fucking kidnapped me! 

I: I'm not here to talk about us. I'm here to talk about you.

S: Why would I tell you anything? 

I: I just want to know a few things about you. I'm trying to be nice here, Jared. If you won't tell me, then I'll have no choice but to make you to talk.

S: What are you gonna do, electrocute m- AAUGH! FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!

Subject 825 is shocked with electricity.

I: Tell me about your childhood, Jared.

S: What the fuck is wrong with you?

Interviewer begins to reach towards the remote.

S: Okay, okay! Just...don't fucking zap me again.

Subject takes several deep breaths.

S: We grew up in an orphanage. I never met my real parents. When we were 15, me and my brother, I'm sure you know all about him, we ran away.

I: Why?

S: Sick of it, I guess. We wanted to live life on our own terms. So, we left. Lived on the streets since.

I: I see. Do you have any friends? Family? People you trust?

S: Why? So you can kidnap them?

I: We're worried about your brother, Jared.

S: Fuck off. I'm not helping you kidnap him!

Subject 825 is shocked with electricity again.

I: You don't get it, do you? You both have so much potential, so much power! We saved you! And we could save him, too, but you'd rather see him die on the streets! The psionic power in your brain...you have no idea what you are capable of!

Security staff enter the room, and pull the interviewer away from Subject 825.

SECURITY: Doctor, that's enough!

I: Alright...I'm sorry, I got out of hand. But this isn't over.

The interview is ended. Subject 825 is escorted back to his cell.

Personality
Subject 825 is generally outgoing, and tries to make connections with other subjects. He tends to use humor as a means of dealing with his problems. He often shows disdain for Daedalus personnel, but is generally compliant with orders, most of the time.

Procedure

Misson Statement

After the discovery of psionics in the year [REDACTED], Project TEMPLAR was created with the goal of researching psionic phenomena. The three main objectives of Project TEMPLAR are:

1. Understand the nature and root causes of psionic phenomena.
2. Identify individuals with high latent psionic potential.
3. Discover means of utilizing psionic abilities.

What are Psionics?

The true nature of psionics is shrouded in mystery. It is believed that almost all living beings possess psionics in small amounts. 'Psionic energy', the mysterious force behind psionics, is found in the brains of humans and other animals. It is unclear what purpose, if any, psionics plays into the function of the brain. Some theorize that psionic energy is necessary for higher brain function, but there is currently no way to test this hypothesis. The amount of psionic energy that most humans produce is so miniscule, it is nearly impossible to detect.

However, there are exceptions. Certain individuals have been found with an abnormally high amount of psionic energy. The root cause of high psionic potential is believed to be genetic. A notable case is Subject 825 and his fraternal twin brother, who both have high latent psionic potential. Another notable case, and the first time the Daedalus Corporation encountered psionics, is the case of [REDACTED]. [REDACTED], a rural village in England, was discovered to have an abnormally high level of high-potential psionics among its population. While Subject 825's biological parents have not been discovered, one theory is that they originated from [REDACTED], and tests of Subject 825's DNA seems to prove this hypothesis.

After years of research, Project TEMPLAR scientists have developed a cybernetic network that has succeeded in interfacing with a subject's brain, and allowing them to actively control their psionic energy. While abilities differ between individuals, telekinesis is a common ability. Our most recent subject, 825, has had wires installed that run to his hands, allowing him to project pure psionic energy from them.

Subject 825 has a very high level of psionic potential. A grid of wires and microchips has been surgically implanted into his brain and skull, along with wires flowing to his hands, to allow for use of psionic abilities. 

To prevent incidents, Subject 825 must wear earphones when outside of his cell, and not in testing. These earphones constantly play a high-pitched buzzing sound that prevents Subject 825 from focusing long enough to use his abilities.

Modifications
Subject 825 has had implants installed that allow him to access his latent psionic abilities. This has given him:
-Telekinesis. He is capable of lifting objects several times his body weight, and throwing them.
-The ability to shoot pure psionic energy from his hands. This can take several forms, from a focused, laser-like beam, to a flamethrower-like spray, to a broad 'wave' attack. When focused and powerful enough, these attacks can melt through metal, break bone, and burn flesh.

During testing, Subject 825 should be allowed to rest after significant use of his powers. Extensive use will cause migraines, and it is believed that severe overuse will lead to strokes.

Talents
Having spent several years on the streets, Subject 825 has experience with survival techniques, and some knowledge of hand-to-hand combat. However, his formal education is near a middle school level. 

Looking Deeper

What do you value most? What (or who) are you most afraid to lose?
"My brother. He's the only family I have."

What was your favorite thing to do, before you were taken?
"We used to play soccer down at this abandoned lot. It wasn't much, but it was fun, and we were with friends."

What do you want?
"I want this buzzing shit to stop. Then, I want out. And then I'm going to find who's running this place and mind-blast their ass into next week."
