Regulator

## Lore

### Personnal Lore Entry

An elite sniper and assassin. No one really knows where he got his training. He's not an Aggarstone native, and doesn't give much of an answer when asked why and how he came here. He previously worked with the Mercenaries, as someone willing to get their hands dirty - the Mercenaries otherwise preferred not to get involved with assassinations if possible. When the Mercenaries recently got into law enforcement, Regulator informed Violetta that he'd be parting ways with the company, as his skillset was not particularly useful outside of the very rare hostage situation. No one is sure what Regulator is up to since then. Although Regulator is identifiable by his iconic gas mask that he wears in public (when seen), which lets him shrug off the ill effects of the smoke bombs he uses, no one - not even Violetta - is even really sure what he looks like underneath.

### Dedicated Tab in Lore section

Shooting from my sniper rifle is more than just art...it is poetry. It has its own beauty. It is graceful and precise, like a woodcarver's knife or a pianist's fingers. Violetta, she doesn't like these things. She's very loud and makes sure everyone knows she's there. But I am silent and invisible. I get in and out before you can say 'Goal achieved.' Nobody knows my face, but they know my job. I am the Regulator. Simple, effective, reliable. I think so too, but from time to time I get poetic. Listen, and I'll tell you.

My love for art was born from old days, simpler times. I was younger then and got an adrenaline rush from it. During my first big ticket job - oh, how incredible it was! I was at least a thousand yards away, or that is how I remember it. The wind was frozen, as in the great lakes of the North, glass waves lapped past me. The night sky was an abyss - there were no stars to be seen. Every breath of icy air was tearing my lungs apart, but it didn't matter. Now I am cold and calm, but back then I was illuminated from within, burning with the thrill of the job, melting the cold night around me.

My gun was ready for what was about to happen. Target, he was some big shot at LunaTech. I don't ask for names. He was with the wrong people, they didn’t want any unnecessary business or loose ends - the work of a simpleton, but still pressure on me, a young shooter. I looked through the scope as the ship's captain looks out to sea. He got out of the car, with him were two robotic bodyguards. Nobody told me that. To hell with these robots, a regular bullet won't do. I had to change the cartridge for a piercing shot before I lost the window. Actually, heh, it's probably a good thing I didn't have time to think about it. I aimed at the target like a lion chasing a gazelle and squeezed a finger to increase the pressure on the trigger. I fired. The bullet whizzed through the air, and you could feel it shattering the glass wind. From this distance, the sensors of the robots did not notice anything. My shot pierced them all - right through the bodies of the machines and into the chest cavity of the target. His body crumpled against the pavement, and robots sparkled and snapped next to him. Done. What a great shot!

You couldn't see me smiling under my mask. You still can't. You are lucky that I am bragging to you now, my friend. The rest do not know poetry. When asked if a job is done, I just nod and return to the shadows.
