**Alexei Serebryakov IX** (born July 6th, 98,817 CE) is a cybernetic human military operative and captain of the first company of the Special Response Division of the Confederacy of Borealis. Originally of noble origin, Serebryakov has since become the first in what is planned to be a line of **Post-psychokinetic Soldiers**. He has numerous abilities putting him on par with or surpassing any current Magi serving in the Confederate military.

Serebryakov is often dispatched alone to various situations in which dangerous individuals need to be discretely taken into custody. He is usually not authorized to use lethal force, however, he rarely has had to use it. He was originally made into such a soldier to counter a growing number of anomalous beings emerging in the Milky Way Galaxy  starting in the early 99,000s CE.

## Characteristics

### Anatomy

Serebryakov is mostly robotic. In place of bones is an artificial endoskeleton capable of active support if need be. The endoskeleton is made up of a graphene composite capable of self-repair. Throughout the endoskeleton are large numbers of motors, computers, and devices responsible for movement. They are based on normal human muscles, however, secondary more rudimentary motors also allow for slower movement. Overlaying this skeleton is a layer of carbon fiber plating directly underneath the skin. The skin itself is a durable composite material designed to appear natural while also having radically increased strength compared to natural skin. It often needs to be replaced as it accrues damage, however, it is capable of limited self-repair.

In the core if the torso region are two power cells, a hydrogen fuel cell and an antimatter fuel cell. The hydrogen fuel cell runs the day to day operation of Serebryakov's various systems. If need be, energy production can be ramped up to up to one megawatt of energy. With the large number of capacitors he also has, he has access to up to 13 megawatts at any given time. The antimatter fuel cell is for releasing truly large amounts of energy in dire situations. With enough energy available to compare to a large volcanic eruption, Serebryakov can release over 4 million gigajoules within several minutes. Normally, he chooses to release this energy in brief increments, as releasing all that energy at once would kill him.

The majority of his brain is made up of an artificial network of neurons designed to make him much better at combat than a fully biological brain would allow. Most of the parts of the brain involving reflexes, motor control, and sensory perception have been replaced with artificial neurons. The rest of the brain remains in tact. He retains the minimum ratio of biological to artificial brain matter to qualify as human, when most humans stay well above the minimum ratio.

### Abilities

Serebryakov has a large number of abilities, all of which stem from entirely technological origins. In the future, some extensions will allow for limited psychokinetic abilities using what are known as Gift Parasites imported from The Union.

A list of abilities Serebryakov has that are usually not afforded to the average soldier:

* Enhanced senses using far higher quality sensors
* Heat generation to over 2000 degrees Celsius
* Built-in weapons
	+ High-energy Neutron Beam
	+ SASER array
	+ LRAD generation
	+ Creation of LASER beams across the electromagnetic spectrum
	+ Twin forearm-mounted rail-guns capable of launching small slugs at extreme speeds
	+ Conversion of heat energy into sound (thereby cooling the target)
	+ Aerosolized neurotoxin emitters capable of debilitating most carbon-based species
	+ Polonium rail slugs
* Onboard Hardlight generator
* Shoulder-mounted auxiliary arms which can fold away under the skin
* Speeds of up to 144 kilometers per hour
* Sustained lift-strength of up to 75,000 kilograms (for several minutes can lift up to 150,000 kilograms)
* Extreme Temperature Resistance
* Vacuum Resistance
* Psychokinetic power detection

Below is a list of abilities afforded to virtually all combat military personnel:

* Radar detection system
* EMP generator
* Ten small reconnaissance drones stored within his body
* Jet pack (Serebryakov's is usually folded away while standard issue Jetpacks are more akin to backpacks)
* Hydrogen generation

### Planned Abilities

As just a prototype, Serebryakov is somewhat unfinished. There are a large number of technologies that are simply too large, too energy-intensive, or volatile to be fit into Serebyakov. As such, the government plans to add a large number of abilities to either Serebryakov himself or the next generation of soldiers like him.

* Onboard warp bubble generator
* Law Stabilization Device
* Gift Parasite Array capable of generating what is known as "Psychokinetic Interference"
* AQESD Array (Abnormal Quantum Event Suppression Device)

## Military Service & Duties

Operating as what can best be described as an assassin, Serebryakov's duties usually involve the permanent debilitation of problematic individuals or entities. The design reflects this purpose. Rather than having the ability to overpower enemies through raw strength, tactical uses of relatively small amounts of energy is preferred.

## Post-Psychokinetic Soldiers

A **Post-Psychokinetic Soldier** is a soldier in the military that is equal in combat effectiveness to a typical psychokinetic soldier without having any psychokinetic traits. Serebryakov was not the first Post-Psychokinetic Solider serving in the Confederacy, far from it. At the formation of the confederacy there were already a battalion of a species known as Naidarans, a species which is often naturally capable of standing up to many psychokinetics. What makes Serebryakov unique is the sheer amount of sophisticated technology within his body. Experts estimate that a soldier such as Serebryakov will take another millennia to become practical.
