Character Backstory
Jack’s mother smuggled both Jack and herself from the Eurasian Union in 2115, during a time where the secret police were scouring all of Neo Shanghai for any possible traitors to the communist regime, and imprisoning anyone they found to be suspicious. One of his mother’s rival co-workers at the local cybernetics lab was questioned and pointed to her as a suspect to lift blame off himself. Jack and his mother were forced to immediately pack what few belongings they had time to throw into a bag that night and abandon their home to avoid life in a prison cell at best or being fed to the hounds at worst. They were able to bribe the owners of a boat bound for Metropolis 1 in Japan to let them stow away. They managed to depart before the city enforcers could find their location and so they set off to the east.
In the 21st century, travelling from Shanghai to Japan would have taken approximately 46 hours. However advances in nautical technology reduced the travel time enough for the ship to dock at Metropolis-1 by the next morning. Their arrival consisted of little more than being thrown along with their luggage onto the walkway below and the rest of the city did not look inviting either. Regardless of the rude welcome, they immediately began to try to fit in with the locals in case the enforcers from back home had the resolve to follow them. They filled out the paperwork for basic citizenship and found a dirt cheap dwelling in the Taihaku district, of course having to comply with minor bribery just to get their application reviewed in a reasonable amount of time. Somehow, TriTech industries got ahold of the information that Jack’s mother was an experienced Cyberneticist and Jack was being trained by his mother to follow in her footsteps. They mailed a mysterious offer to the doorstep of the sketchily constructed apartment. Included in the letter was a Job offer to his mother, and a scholarship for Jack to attend an official course for Cybernetic studies in a private Tritech college on the upper level of the city. They promptly accepted the seemingly generous offer and moved out of the ghetto apartment in which they had only inhabited for a few days in favor of official TriTech funded lodging. Jack didn’t even have to apply for the college, he was simply directly handed a course schedule and told not to be late.
The next four years went fairly smoothly, although some adjustments definitely had to be made. Transferring from mostly homeschooling to strict mandated schedules proved a challenge for Jack’s unpredictable sleep schedule, but his desire to not lose his financial backing by being even a little irresponsible allowed his body to adapt. Surprisingly enough, Jack never faced any amount of discrimination despite being Eurasian in origin. The other students appeared far too occupied with their extensive studies to make any attempt at socializing. As such, the only words spoken during the day were from the Professors reading from the official TriTech curriculum. The final exam for his Honors Cybernetic Studies course was to improve upon the design for any existing augment to increase its efficiency for one purpose or another by the end of senior year. Jack’s design was a smaller and more efficient version of an industrial claw used to removed metallic plates. The graduation ceremony consisted of nothing more than a cupcake, diploma, and the schedule for their pre-arranged jobs. They were allowed to go home for three days to get their belongings arranged before moving to their new lodging near the buildings of which their employment had been assigned. Jack walked home with the Diploma, details of his pre-arranged employment, and the cupcake frosted with the TriTech logo in his hands. On the trek back, he couldn’t help but notice everyone else on the sidewalk was running in the opposite direction of him. This area of town was closely monitored and patrolled by TriTech security so it didn’t make sense for anything bad to have happened. He picked up his pace and he found the source of the panic. His own apartment had been set ablaze.
Three armored figures holding flamethrowers were torching the apartment, all of them shouting “Protect the Pride and Strength of Japan” in Japanese. Jack ran thoughtlessly ran towards them to get them to stop only to receive two diagonal slashes from a nano blade. The first only grazed the skin on his face, however the second cut part way through his right eye and cut his right arm clean off. He was then elbowed in the throat hard enough to injure his spine, crumpling to the ground and dropping everything in his arms including the cupcake. From the behind the legs of his attackers, Jack could see his mother along with several other frightened tenants scurrying to escape the burning structure. Jack watched helplessly in horror as he witnessed them come out of the front entrance only to be hosed down with several hundred degree streams of flame, and practically ceased to exist.
Luckily, The augmented claw fell out of its box and landed near Jack’s left hand. He was able to jam it onto the stump of his arm with only a lot of pain. Just as the Aranami thugs were about to leave, Jack jumped to his feet and in a blind rage, swung his claw at them in a blind rage and was able to behead two of them. The third turned around to see his comrades decapitated and tried to run, however his heavy armor made him slow enough for Jack to jam his blades into the chest piece before piercing through the man’s lungs and out of his chest. After the adrenaline wore off, Jack passed out from the pain of his injuries, as well as stabbing an augment into his arm without anesthetics.
Jack spent the next few days in the hospital. The medical droids had to repair Jack’s right eye, stitch the left side of his face, regrow the flesh around the hurriedly attached arm, and replace part of his neck. In addition, his lungs were damaged so he needed a respirator just to breathe properly. TriTech Industries paid the full cost of the medical expenses. However, Jack no longer had lodging or any possessions to his name. Combined with the reports of Jack’s violent action against the Aranami terrorists, TriTech decided that Jack was a financial and safety hazard rather than an asset, so once Jack left the hospital, they cut their losses. His employment was terminated before it had begun.
Several months later, in 2120, Jack wanders the streets of Taihaku district. He retains a strong hatred towards the Aranami up to the current date. He makes a living by repairing augments on the street on occasion. Only time will tell if anything will come of this hardship.
