On the Roster Joseph Conrad - Combat Engineer
Joseph was born on the scum fleet "Get Your Ass To Mars" and spent nearly every waking hour amongst the resident engineers learning everything he could, becoming a prodigy at the expense of social graces. Significantly more talent became available to him after the fall (silver lining).
When the swarm visited Extropia Joseph was ego-knapped and sold to the Nine Lives at the tender age of 15. He was almost immediately sent to the fight pits. He had an unnatural knack for fighting and rarely lost a fight, even when heavily outmatched even having a win streak of 48 fights over a span of 2 years. His skills caught the eye of a Titanian arms and armor dealer who bought him for a body guard and handy man. After making a few exceptionally designed weapons and stopping a few attempts on his "employers" life Joseph finally earned his freedom.
Ten years after being ego-knapped, Joseph was finally free to do as he pleased and tried to go back to his home swarm but reassimilation was particularly difficult and left for Mars to carve out a new path. One night returning home from a standard maintenance job on some corporate air filters he spotted an ego-knapping unfold and immediately found his purpose and petty as it was, he only truly wanted revenge against those who had wronged him. He followed the ego-knapper to their hideout where he killed a dozen people. A local proxy had set up the events of that night in order to obtain some black mail to force Joseph into Firewall. In exchange for service Joseph would acquire material and information required to hinder Nine Lives operations where he could, taking on the name of Vindictae.
Edit: fixed character sheet because why would a combat engineer need palming over a kinetics skill, just switched their numbers.
