The TechBro

# Character Information

## Background

Jonathan, preferring Johnny, was born in Christchurch, New Zealand, in 2050 to Anarchist parents working for MCT. Growing up he had always been instilled with values of freedom and learning, his parents being researchers in MCT's Oceania division. This lead to a relatively comfortable life for Johnny, getting a university level education with a particular passion for Astrophysics, Psychology and Mathematics up until his 19th birthday. On that faithful day, his parents were killed after attending an Anarchist gathering turned riot, he went off the deep end into horrific drug use and gang activity in the country, eventually landing himself with a crew of Otaku who thought to use his academic knowledge on the Matrix.

He, despite being high for the majority of it, somehow survived Crash 2.0 and DEUS's death, having sleeping off a hangover when it happened instead of being jacked in. He stumbled around for a few more years, taking jobs working on the new Matrix wherever he could or working as a research assistant. Luckily for Johnny however, lightning struck twice and he Emerged as a Techno a couple years after the Crash. He liked it, it was interesting, even if he thought it was all hallucinations from the drugs at the time. This, mixed with his chill manner and cool way with people, made him the perfect candidate to be a test subject for MCT when they found out.

He went on the run, using whatever gang connections he had formed while a kid to get himself some work after his SIN was burned, mostly in the form of small time Shadowruns, earning the name D33pW33d cause that's all he had in his pocket at the time. He did this dilligently, working for years with a colourful cast, eventually being picked up by Bautista while DJing at a Huk party and getting fragging doped up with them. Bautista had heard of D33pW33d and the Techno needed work...so he happily accepted an invite onto the Market.
