## Background

Alex grew up in MCT. He attended school where he showed an aptitude for mental work and the matrix, which led to him being placed into those kinds of classes during school. The truth is, his aptitude for the matrix was one of the first signs that he was a technomancer, and MCT knew it, keeping an eye on him. His uncle had been Otaku, which MCT knew and this made them keep an even closer eye on him, feeling he had the right genes, as well as aptitude for it. He lived like most corporate born children: raised on the drivel that corps fed them, and he lived for it. He aspired to be an elite Spider working for MCT, working hard in his classes in an attempt to do so. When he got the letter of acceptance from MIT&T, it was a proud day for him and his family. His parents bought him a datajack to celebrate, excited to help him on his career path. The surgery wasn't for another 6 months, but before it could happen, something else occurred. He walked into the bathroom, checking through his AR messages, going about his morning routine. When it came time to put his contacts in, the contacts with image link that he used for AR, he realized... he didn't have anything in... but he was seeing AR.

Luckily, he was old enough that MCT had relaxed their watch on him, but he wasn't completely in the clear. He went to his parents to talk about what happened, explaining how his morning went. Like most of MCT, he and they believed the drivel MCT had pounded into them, so they called and explained what happened to them. MCT recommended he come in for some tests, which he did. The doctor examined him, administering a few tests when the suspicious behavior tipped Alex off a little. He hacked the doctor's commlink, spotting the messages that demanded the doctor sedate him and turn him over for processing. The explanation of what happened to technomancers, some turned into good corporate drones while others are used for additional testing was made clear to him, and the later than usual emergence had the researchers intrigued. He waited until the last minute, taking the sedative from the doctor and hitting him with it, then put on the coat and tried to act natural walking out. He made it to the door before someone challenged him. He bolted, but the door was locked. It was then that he used his abilites for the first time, puppeteering the door unlocked, enabling his escape, but leaving behind a resonance signature.

He ran, making it into a poor part of town, shedding the jacket. He used his new abilities to get by for a while, but eventually got caught trying to hack a guy's commlink. This man happened to be an ex-runner and a technomancer, who offered additional training in the Resonant Arts, and helped him get by. This man, Clyde Sellers, was an ex-army vet who had emerged in his mid-teens. He had hidden his abilities and had trained entirely self-taught, along with the aids available on the matrix. Together, they ran a few jobs through Clyde's fixer

He lived with him for about a year before the man died. To a stray bullet from a gang war. Not even a run, or disease, or something else. A purely ignonimous death. He now wears Clyde's dogtags and old jacket to honor and remember him, and has taken on his old handle, despite his young age disqualifiying him from inheriting the name's reputation.
