Paradigm: Fated by his destiny and the gods to be a weapon, the gods also give him some small measure of their power. By channeling it through mantras, whether spoken or etched or sometimes just thought, he can harness this to give the Good Death to those who need it.

Equipment: Heavy Revolver (6L damage, Diff. 8), some other stuff

Merits: (1 pt)
Prestigious Mentor (1 pt)-A member of the Golden Chalice? That's pretty hardcore.

Flaws: (+1 pt)
Nightmares (+1 pt)-If you've seen some of the things I've seen, done some of the things I've had to do-there's a reason I fight. Nobody should have to deal with what I've dealt with.

Background: Chris joined the military to see the world and be all he could be, but that ended up... not quite working out for him when he ended up being grievously wounded from a training accident. He drifted in a coma for months before he was awakened, with a strange, strange person standing near him, offering him a new life, a second chance, and a goal that he could believe in, rather than drifting aimlessly trying to find something to live for. They healed his body, slowly, for it was not his time to die yet. His Mentor believed that if he could make it in sleeper society, attempt to join the elite of the elite-even if his career prospects were cut short by hitting a tree at terminal velocity-he could take his mentor's place in the Golden Chalice.


Lessons Learned

  • You are expendable and it doesn't matter, the problems have to be fixed.
  • The common man needs help and some people really need to die.
  • Sacrifice is self-sacrifice, not the sacrifice of others.
  • One cannot let one's own driving goal consume them, lest they become a monster.
  • Don't fixate on one idea to solve a problem.
  • Brook no personal weakness.
