Name: Zachary Matthias Beyston
Nickname: Zach, Zax, Zex; not "Zexy Beyst" (although he's been called that before)
Address: 19312 Pendragon Avenue (Apts. 314, 316, 318)
Place of Birth: Renton, Washington (U.S.)
Height: 5'9"
Age: 40 (born 2008)
Weight: 167 lbs.
Physical Description: Well-built for his age, Beyston has maintained his health since being discharged from the Army. He has short brown hair, reminiscent of the regulation cut for Haven's military defense force. His blue eyes seem to glint, sometimes even shine, in the right lighting, as light reflects of his optical overlays.

Quick Bio: Born in 2008, Beyston spent most of his formative (high school) years with the Genesis Project in the news. Thanks to the values his father had instilled in him, Beyston knew what he was going to do once he graduated: he was going to join the Navy, following in the footsteps of his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. But, only months before his graduation, the Moon Crisis changed everything. His father, the commanding officer of a patrol boat in the Pacific Ocean, was destroyed by the massive tidal forces generated by deorbiting lunar chunks and space debris. As Earth's situation deteriorated in the following months, Beyston realized that the Navy was no longer a viable option, and began planning a new way to protect his planet from the rising Origin threat, and make his father's memory proud. The day after graduating, Beyston enlisted in the Army, and, following the results of a seemingly simple proficiency test, Private First Class Beyston was sent to training for a combat engineering unit. The next two years spent fighting the Origins were hell on Earth, but nothing when compared to the final days of the Great Retreat, when the Army was assigned to keeping the civilian influx into Haven as orderly as possible. Staff Sergeant Beyston was part of the unit responsible for sealing the final hangar of Haven, and the begging, screaming, and crying of those left outside would continue to haunt him. After serving in the Haven military defense force for two years, Beyston was discharged following terminal leave when it became clear that he was still struggling under the weight of his Great Retreat ghosts.

Ethnic Origin:
Parents’ Names & Occupations:
Frederick Beyston (killed in action), ship captain in the Navy; Amanda Waller-Beyston (deceased), elementary school teacher
Social Class: Lower class
Education: High school education; received intensive instruction in relevant subjects during training as engineer for the Army.

Occupation/Employer: Self-employed/Independently employed
Employer’s Social Class: N/A
Community Status: Frequently called upon to help neighbors when things break, and calls upon those who can't make it to his apartment; however, even his neighbors know he has his ghosts, and know better than to bother him at times.
Job-Related Skills: Mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, programming (basic), prototyping (designing circuitboards, robots, machines, etc.)
Hobbies/Recreations: Beyston rarely spends time away from his job; that is to say, when he isn't repairing something, or building something for someone else, he's frequently prototyping a design that he came up with.
Personal Qualities: Problem solver | Inquisitive/Curious | Analytical | Observative

Ambitions: Beyston is currently content with his life, happy to be able to help his neighbors, impelled to make amends for those he was unable to help during the Great Retreat.

Fears/Anxieties/Hangups: Beyston is still haunted by the actions he was forced to take during the Great Retreat, when his Army unit was assigned to seal off the last of Haven's hangars.

Health/Physical Condition: Beyston is extremely fit for his age, having maintained the level of fitness which was required of him while he served in both the Army and Haven's military defense force.
Upgrades: As an engineer in the Army, Beyston's eyes were enhanced with retinal overlays and optical optimization hardware; although the hardware is now slightly out of date, he has maintained the firmware at the state-of-the-art level. Ten years ago, Beyston suborned and reprogrammed nanobots he had smuggled from his Army kit when he was discharged in 2030. He used them to implant spoofers, designed to fool handprint scanners through the use of a low-intensity close field, in both wrists, as well as an unobtrusive homemade scanner in his right palm.

Philosophies or catch phrases:
"No matter how hard you try, if you don't pay your dues to Murphy, you're screwed."
"Never forget to factor in Murphy."

UPDATEAnd finished! ManicMuse ManicMuse , everyone else, I'd love some feedback on my sheet. (Also, I've started work on the antag character that I mentioned, and will post it once I've gotten far enough along with it.)
 
Now will this character be the split persona of Zach or and entirely different character?


Assuming they are a different character, I want you to have a clear idea of who they are beyond the masked vigilante side. Only because the story will likely move past Haven in a few episodes. Once we are in the wilds, he may need to take off the mask and work with others sometimes.

Name: Ryu Murioka
Alias: "Silver Dragon"


  • Address: Unknown
    Place of Birth: Unknown
    Height: Approximately 6'1"
    Age: Unknown, likely mid-twenties to early-fourties
    Weight: Approximately 175-180 lbs.
    Physical Description: The "Silver Dragon" exists mainly as a quasi-mythical entity that has claimed responsibility for several murders of high-profile citizens of Haven. He rarely emerges from the shadows long enough to be identified, let alone long enough for someone to get a detailed description. However, many alleged sightings of him describe the Silver Dragon as wearing a low-profile gray armored suit of unknown make. Other sightings claim he was carrying a sword, or arrows, or multiple guns; several of the attributed murders have been committed with such weapons.

    Ethnic Origin: Unknown
    Parents’ Names & Occupations: Unknown

    Social Class: Unknown
    Education: Unknown

    Occupation/Employer: Self-employed
    Employer’s Social Class: N/A
    Community Status: Unknown
    Job-Related Skills: Martial arts, gymnastics, stealth, general weapons proficiency
    Hobbies/Recreations: Unknown

    Goals: It has been noted that all the victims of murders attributed to the "Silver Dragon" have been members of high society, or the upper class of Haven. It seems likely that the Dragon has some sort of vendetta against Genesis corporate employees.

    Health/Physical Condition/Upgrades: The Silver Dragon appears to be in peak physical condition, generally committing his homicidal deeds with methods that would require great physical endurance, dexterity, and strength. It is unknown whether the Silver Dragon has been augmented, either electronically or bionically.

    Philosophies or catch phrases:
    "The High must fall."
    "Living up high only means that you have longer to fall."
    "It's a long way down."
    "How far the 'mighty' fall."



All right, everyone! This one is finished (I think). I'd love some feedback!

First off, Murioka is completely separate from Beyston. Beyston's not quite that off-kilter, mentally ;).
As for his "every day" side, I figured he'd be a (kind of) standoffish person, who prefers doing things solo. He's been on his own for the past eighteen years, and he's gotten to like it that way. That's not to say that some sort of crisis or extraordinary event couldn't bring him out of his shell or make him more of a team player; however, until such an event occurs, Ryu's going to be pretty tightly closed up.
 
Sounds good to me. Just wanted to toss that out there since it's my plan for the story down the road. Feel free to get them both posted on the accepted character line up and post in where you see fit.

With all the excitement with the attack, I'm interested to see where you will insert them.
Thanks!

I think I'm going to wait to introduce Murioka. The time/setting just doesn't seem right, currently.

Name:
William Rundell Haus-Code

Nickname:
Mr. Code

Address:

19910 Karley Howe Avenue

Place of Birth:

Unknown

Height:

6'1"

Age:

25

Weight/Physical Description:

70kg
8e0ac08365e5e17b32049e03d64490e8--hot-anime-anime-guys.jpg


Ethnic Origin:
Caucasian

Parents’ Names & Occupations:

Jason Rundell (Deceased) and Miranda Haus-Code (Deceased)
CEO of "Rundell Industries" and a lawyer in a law firm

Social Class:
Wealthy upper-class AF

Education:

Master's Degree: Neuroscience
Bachelor's Degrees: Engineering and Business

Occupation:
Current CEO of Rundell Industries, a cybernetic RnD engineering company.
(Also has assumed possession of his mother's law firm as well as many other smaller private businesses)

Community Status:

The charismatic leader of the big corporate giant in the Haven, often sought out for his top of the line cybernetic augments and insights into revolutionary new research in various areas.

Job-Related Skills:

Charismatic Leader - William has spent his life learning the way of the upper echelons of society, learning the game of manipulation at a political level thanks to his parents. He can talk himself out of any situation, persuade almost anyone to do whatever he wants and can hide/bend/change the truth to suit his purposes flawlessly. He is very experienced in the game of politics and knows his way around the law and the government like the back of his hand. He has made many powerful friends with these skills.

Scientific Prodigy - William does not just lead and fund the company. He gets involved directly in most projects, even assuming the position of project manager for some of the more important research. He is well versed in most sciences, engineering and neurology being among them, and academics and has a very sharp/cunning mind.

Basic Defensive Combat Training - Being the CEO of a very influential company means that William naturally has a lot of enemies, a large portion of them being those who isn't even aware of. To further protect himself in addition to his usual security detail, William has completed a basic small firearms training course. He can fire weapons like pistols fairly well now.

Hobbies/Recreations:

Muay Thai - Another security measure: William has taken it upon himself to learn a martial arts in case he should find himself somehow disarmed. He has only recently begun this course and is currently not particularly skilled at it, although he does know a few tricks.

"Athletine" - A drug that William himself has manufactured. It temporarily slows down one's perception of reality through cognitive rewiring of nerve pathways in the brain. It also releases dopamine in the brain for that good old 'high' effect. Whilst there aren't any noticeable side effects currently, there has not been any long-term testing as the drug is quite new. William uses this drug frequently and sells very expensively to fund his company. It has also become very popular with athletes looking for a 'legal drug' to enhance their perceptive capabilities, hence the name.

Personal Qualities:
Cunning - William takes extreme pleasure in executing plans and strategies and absolutely loves outsmarting others. He is a political shark in a sea of fish and is often prefers to pull the strings to get what he wants. Trying to pin anything on him and his army of lawyers is essentially impossible.

Academic - William has spent basically all his life in private education absorbing as much information as he physically can, by his parents will naturally, in addition to his natural intelligence. He is very knowledgeable in a lot of fields and is also a very logical thinker. Rather unsympathetic and not really one for empathy, William analyses the facts and figures of life to come to a decision. And in failing that, he'll rely on his gut instincts.

Sadist - William is a bit of a sadist. He enjoys when others are suffering, preferably due to some ingenious plan of his own creation. This links back to his obsession with outsmarting others but it can also extend to actual physical torture and mental torment should the need arise. William does not do something for no reason; if you find yourself firmly within his notoriously hard-to-evade grip, you are in the way and will receive no mercy for your actions.

God-Complex - William is a narcissist, plain and simple. Perhaps due to his expansive education, his status in society or his silver-spoon upbringing, he thinks himself above everyone he meets and even considers himself to be a gift to the Haven. As such, he is very prideful and is quite obsessed with self-image and maintaining his dignity/reputation. This can sometimes clash with his academic and cunning qualities as he battles to make decisions based on his own whims versus actual logic, however is works very well with his sadism; which often panders to his own self-important needs.

Ambitions:
William is a very complex man, as one could guess from his personality, skills and history. He constantly strives to climb the political ladder. He also strives to attain further knowledge as he continues his research pursuits to unlock the secrets hidden from life. His overall goal is merely to obtain a power worthy of a god like himself, whether that be to assume possession of the Haven, discovering a means to control the flora monsters that threaten humanity or developing technological equipment so advanced it would allow him to do whatever he wants. In a nutshell, William wants power. He wants wealth. He wants to feel like a god, to be revered and feared as a god. And he will crush anything in his way of attaining this dream of his.

Fears/Anxieties/Hangups:
William is deathly afraid of losing his political status, losing his power/wealth and cannot stand losing in any way. He also hates it when his plans don't go as... planned.

Health/Physical Condition/Upgrades:

William is physically healthy, however he is a regular abuser of the new "drug" he has created, the potential negative effects of which being unknown.
William has an ear/brain augment (one of his own products) that acts as a communication device, medium to issue commands to various devices or access networks, may display visuals that only he can see (via sending electrical signals to the brain to simulate light) and enhances his hearing when he chooses. It comes in the form of a permanent earring.

Philosophies or catch phrases:
"Anything you've ever wanted is always just a stone's throw away. It all depends on how hard you throw the stone..."

"Come now, surely you can decipher the Code?"

Nice work! A few things I noticed, though:
  • Is William's last name supposed to be hyphenated? At least within the U.S., that's the norm. So his mother's surname would be "Haus-Code" and William's would be "Rundell-Haus-Code" or something along those lines. (I have no clue as to how to combine a surname with an already-hyphenated surname.)

  • It looks like you forgot a period after "Mr" in the "Nickname" section.

  • All letters of the acronym "CEO" should be capitalized, throughout the CS.

  • How did a twenty-five year-old manage to attain ten master's degrees? Given that, generally, college students graduate with a bachelor's degree at around age twenty to twenty-three, how did William manage so many graduate-level degrees within only two to five years? Especially challenging ones like neurology and engineering?
    • Is "floriology" even a thing? Light searching suggests that it's a rarely-used pseudo-Latinate that refers to the art of flower arranging. Did you perhaps mean to say "botany"?
    • Keep in mind that partway through 2026 the destruction of the moon (I've called it the "Moon Crisis" in my writings) threw everyday life into disarray. Since Origin creatures were running amok across the globe, education systems were pretty much nonexistent. As for after the "Great Retreat" (when Haven was opened for the public), education for the upper class hasn't really been discussed. We've established that, for lower class citizens, public education in a formalized fashion is [virtually] nonexistent. So write how you see fit for William, but consider how what you write will be the contrast for upper class education vs. lower class street smarts.

  • Not to be too retentive, but the proper term is "master's degree" or "master's degrees", as a possessive and with no capitalization.

That's all that stood out to me. Other than that, this looks pretty good to me!

Another name of my own design. Not officially recognized/canon.

Like I said on Discord, I've looked over the CS, and, in regards to education, this is what I've figured out makes sense (whether you agree or not, or even choose to pay any attention, is up to you.):
  1. You can cut the degrees in "politics" (it would actually be "political sciences") and "floriology" entirely—PoliSci degrees are generally considered as useless as philosophy degrees and no one should ever major in flower arranging. Ever.
    Floriology, Politics
  2. As the creator of athletine, it makes sense for him to have an advanced degree in neuroscience (not neurology—that's not quite the right field for what you need). Such a degree would eliminate the need for degrees in biology and medicine; additionally, we can assume he had help with the pharmacological aspect, so the chemistry degree can be removed as well.
    +Neuroscience, Medicine, Biology, Neurology, Chemistry
  3. Unless he had plans to become a psychologist, he probably doesn't need to have a degree (at all) in psychology—I'm fairly certain that the psychological aspects of athletine development would also fall under neuroscience.
    Psychology
  4. Given William's anticipated future occupations, it's unlikely that he would have received an advanced education in mathematics, which is rather abstract and unlikely to be useful. The same goes for physics. This isn't to say that he wouldn't have been educated about math or physics, just that he wouldn't likely have been educated enough to receive any sort of degree.
    Maths, Physics
  5. Engineers tend to be pretty pragmatic about education. As such, advanced degrees don't necessarily do you any better than a good ol' bachelor's degree.
    Bachelor's degree in Engineering​
  6. Lastly, as a future CEO, it would make sense for William to have been groomed for business. As such, he'd probably have (at least) a bachelor's in business. However, this isn't vital, as he could have learned the tricks to being a CEO as he went.
    +Bachelor's degree in Business

To summarize, this would mean that, for education, William would have: Dual-bachelor's degrees in engineering and business, as well as the completion of some sort of pre-med course. Most importantly, he'd have a master's degree in neuroscience.

This curriculum vitae is still rather ambitious, especially given William's age, but (to me) it's more reasonable than ten master's degrees. Keep in mind that just because he doesn't have a degree in a given field doesn't mean that he is completely ignorant of the subject.

Destructus, I'll leave you with this and let you toy with/discard it as you see fit.
