Code Name: Silence
Name: James Pentan
Age: 25
Physical Description:
At around seven feet tall, James' cybernetic frame is a force to be reckoned with, easily twice as strong as a normal human and far more precise, mechanical stillness and targeting algorithms rendering his ranged accuracy second to none. The implants and extensible plating are a dull grey in colour, but glint slightly under bright light, evidence of the Dust technology used in the manufacture of the cybernetics. As a machine, he doesn't suffer from fatigue, but prolonged exertion, especially at peak capacity, can put stress on the delicate machinery in his joints in the same manner as human tendon and cartilage, albeit that they have far more durability.
Personality: His inability to speak has been a surprisingly small problem to him, mainly due to the fact that he was a very quiet person even when alive. He tends to keep himself to himself, and can usually be found tinkering with blueprints, hacking a supposedly secure system, or just cleaning his rifle. When he has to communicate, he usually sends text messages to Vagrant's cybernetic eyes so that he can relay them. If it is absolutely unavoidable, he'll communicate directly via sign language, but he intensely dislikes doing so.
Extent of Cybernetics: Almost fully replaced - all four limbs from shoulder and hip, the left half of his torso and neck, and his face. The rest of his neck, face and torso can be covered by extensible plating that gives it some protection. All of it is as EM-hardened as it is possible to make it.
Cybernetic Design Flaw: Cannot speak, weak point along spinal cord thanks to large number of delicate neural grafts. Despite his shielding, a powerful EMP blast could break through, in which case he will die within moments from catastrophic organ failure.
Favored Dust: Wind Dust, Force Dust (translucent, produces, depending on how it's used, waves or strikes of pure force.)
Weapon: Silent Death, a sniper rifle with an effective range of around two kilometers. Uses Wind Dust to increase range and negate wind effects on the bullet and Force Dust in the bullets to increase the damage they do. Has a staff form.
Non combat skills: Hacker, architect, weapons & vehicle designer, mechanic.
History: Was caught in a massive explosion of fire dust when working on a custom weapon. It vapourised his limbs and most of the left side of his torso, along with his face, and left severe burns along the rest. He was not expected to survive, since all of his internal organs were severely burnt or in some cases turned to ash, but the cybernetic surgery was a success, though it left him with only 5% of his original skin, and the only fully intact organ was his brain.
