ASBO

# Jack "ASBO" Ro██████

ASBO, or A58 according to his callsign, is a disgruntled Mercenary new to the zone. Known for his short stature and young age, ASBO is a relatively friendly Merc when he feels like it. Despite being new, he is well know as someone to hire for menial tasks due to his only real job requiring him to stay within the zone.

## Background

Jack is a British Soldier who went from being a private to corporal in 8 months, cited as "being better suited to officer roles". His life before this is largely unimportant to him and those in the zone. However, due to a criminal past, he chose the callsign "ASBO" (Anti-social behavior order), however those outside of the UK believe it stands for Anti-social British operator. Only residing in the zone for roughly a month, he gained a reputation among his fellow Mercs as someone willing to do even the most dull jobs. this is due to the fact that In 2018, Jack joined a Mercenary company under the guise of it being simply a better paying role where he was located, however, this was a lie by the company that hired him as to acquire a skilled operator a month before they sent new men to the zone. Due to this, his only active job is simply, be in the zone for at least 6 days a week. His most well know contract, if not associated with him, is the clearing of several mutant nests in the dead city and the clearing of the apartments near the Sports Center to allow Mercs better patrol routes and safer days, as he called it "Operation Clean sweep". He is willing to do any work that doesn't send him straight to his death, however he can be convinced to do as such if the payment is deemed good enough.

After his first week of being in the zone, ASBO heard of specialist operators from eavesdropping on some of the more experienced Mercenaries. Longing to meet one of these people, he often takes on jobs requiring him to eliminate a target as to get his name out as skilled killer, his hope is that upon meeting one of these people he may be recruited and avoid his contract expiring and also receive a simply better life in the zone.

## Safety evaluation

<evaluation of ASBO before Mercenary employment>

"...…. Jack is notable for his turbulent past, as he disclosed in his application to Wyvern squad. Born to poor parents in Liverpool, he lived a troubled youth, losing his father at 7 and having his mother remarry when he was around 10. He was the youngest member of a drug group and was incredibly skilled at transfer of all manner of illegal items, including but not limited to: drugs of any variety, Guns, explosive materials, and even managing to carry an entire diesel powered generator to a hideout alone. Before this note examination continues, I am sure that you now see the reasons for his moving from Wyvern to our newest detachment. Continuing onward, his mother remarriage brought the family northwards, towards the borders of Scotland. His new father, a former army sergeant, raised the boy poorly, leading him to continue his antics. This went without a problem until he turned 15, were him and the gang he created were arrested. It is believed that, due to local corruption, he was beaten into answering questions, giving him a fear of authority. Due to this is, it is safe for us as both a company and a small military, to believe it easy to place him in our first detachment to be sent to the zone. To further add onto this subject, we must take into account that, he managed to achieve a good reputation after this, eventually leading to his recruitment into the army. As well, it should not be understated his role in combat, during his few months in Cyprus he assisted in a military operation to shut down a terror cell and climb the ranks quickly during this, ending up on a potential list of SAS candidates for the year, however, as our luck should have it, he left the army due to pay and disagreements with his superiors. He is clearly skilled and … <the evaluation only contains an appeal for his immediate hire to the recruiter>"
