Morning Watch Location Bridge Mid-Watch Location Cargo bays Evening Watch Location Master's Quarters Known Background Born and raised on the high gravity desert planet Querra to a low class parents his young life was spent in the deserts mining the metal rich sands of the Great Red Sandsea. Imprisoned during his teenage years for assaulting and killing a group of miners for attacking his sister and mother he spent over a decade in the prison ship orbiting the planet kept in max isolation for three years after an incident that was dubbed The Death Riot of block C-157 where the 76 prisoners attempted a riot and escape. By the time the guards got to the Block Donovan was the only man left alive, sitting calmly on the floor crossed legged with his hands resting on the top of his head amongst the broken and tattered remains of the other 75 prisoners waiting calmly for them to enter and take him away. Footage later showed him disarming a prisoner to start the killing spree and as he moved along he made use of everything at hand as a weapon as well as using his powerful physique on the less fortunate of the prisoners. One day he was chosen as a candidate for an experimental military project and was released into the custody of the Military scientists. All records past that point lead everyone to believe he ceased to exist until he found his way aboard the St. Anne. Unknown Background Once taken in to Military custody Donovan was stripped of everything that made him human, including his name, which was replaced with Subject VH24601JV. Over seven years VH24601JV was cut open, pulled apart, and filled with experiment implants and augmentations. Things like anesthesia were considered unnecessary expenses and were only used for the most delicate of the operations, and even then, it was barely more than a local. His only solace was that he was one of their later candidates and many of the augments added had already been tested and tweaked on other subjects. The augmentations and implants included An internal com system that can be activated by thought. Neural amplifier that was faulty and instead of vastly increasing his brains reaction times, it was a minor increase and came with the side effects of facial twitching and bouts of intense rage Reflex stimulation pack linked directly from his spine to his eyes allowing him to move as fast as he sees threats, causes uncontrolled fidgeting. Optical enhancement which give his eyes their particular orange color and glow when activated, Binocular vision, low light vision, and basic targeting system. Prolonged activation leads to crippling headaches. Altered genetic traits to make him immune to most sickness and disease, and resistant to many others. A slew of other impractical wet ware, including ones meant to increase his speed and strength that were deemed failures but left inside. Due to the high number of modifications his body started to reject some of the implants furthering his mild insanity. Subject HV24601JV was deemed combat test ready, along with some 800 other subjects. They were repeatedly dropped into conflicts on various planets sold to fight for the highest bidder and used as an advertisement of what the scientists could accomplish with enough funding and time. During one such battle Subject HV24601JV managed to escape and fled into space, where he eventually wound up on the St. Anne. Iona is the only person that Donovan has told his story to, a sign of trust to his captain for taking him away from the horrors of being a test subject.
