Name/Alias: //REDACTED// /Delta
Age: 32-34 (exact age and date unknown)
Height: 6’3
Alignment: Better Living Industries- SCARECROW- Exterminator Subclass: C (berserker unit)
Overview:
Delta is a good person. He can be caring, compassionate, empathetic, understanding, and loving- when he’s on all of his prescribed medications. With his various pills and injections, he is a whole man. It’s when he is denied these things that becomes the scourge of an Exterminator that’s infamous in the Zones. It’s not an addiction, it’s a necessity. If one believed in the soul, they would find that Delta’s comes in a little white bottle with a happy face label.
The reason for this is because Better Living Industries accidentally ‘broke’ his brain during a thorough cleansing after a year of being rampant in the Zones. Granted, cracks had already started to show from their previous meddlings, but the entire thing was structurally unsound to begin with. To cover up for their incredible failure, they quickly salvaged what they could and engineered a cocktail of chemicals to keep Delta’s psyche ticking.
However, this means that Better Living Industries has the ability to turn parts of his personhood on and off as it suits their need, depending on whether he gets the good stuff or placebos. When Delta’s off duty, he’s closest to his original self, less so while at work, and a complete headcased berserker unit when he’s sent on more taxing assignments. He's a human weapon- though the extent of his managed madness renders him into something that would only pass for human at a quick glance. Drooling, cursing, bloodlusting animal is more like it.
Delta is more than aware of the fact that he would be spiritually dead if it wasn’t for his pills. It’s a moral conundrum that chews at him every day. He’s grateful that BLI allows him to keep his sanity and individuality intact with the drugs.
Aside:
the ‘god-drug’- Though discontinued due to causing the recipients to become ‘unstable’, Delta was the fourth recipient of Better Living’s answer to the hazardous conditions of the Zones, a series of injections that incorporated a genetic rewriting (through the use of a retrovirus) of the cells’ ability to heal themselves, ending in advanced regenerative abilities.
This does not make him infallable. Shoot him and he will go down for a while...just not indefinitely.
Delta jokes about being ‘immortal’ through this, he’s never had to put it to the test too much. Nobody’s gotten in a proper beheading yet. Hopefully nobody ever will. That would probably do it.
Personal beliefs:
Delta does believe that life is chaotic and overwhelming and that managing it is the best option: he is pretty much a model of BLI’s philosophy at its most literal. He will respect the people who choose to do otherwise, however. He doesn’t think everybody in the Zones is a bad guy, despite the propaganda, but his persecution of those in the Zones with criminal intent could be described as fanatical. And when he's 'unleashed', as it were, it's no fucks given. You're going to die.
Ultimately, he wishes to see a Battery City without any sort of crime, and he has it in his head that if he were given Korse’s position, he could turn it into a lawful Utopia.
History:
For those who really want to know the details, you can ask.
But here are a few key points:
- moved to Battery City in 2011, before everything went to fuckshit as an officer in the Battery City Police Department
- joined SCARECROW in 2015
- somewhat unwillingly underwent experimentation for new ‘god drug’ that promotes rapid healing; did not do well for his psychology
- released as an Exterminator a year later, 2016
- March 2016- Jan 2017 //NO RECORD//
- re-released as Exterminator Subclass: C late 2017- current (2021)
Skills/Accolades:
- consistently highly ranked amongst fellow SCARECROW officers
accomplished marksman - capable squadron leader [only 3 out of countless patrols have resulted in any Draculoid death thus far]
- trained in decoding enemy transmissions and reading encrypted data
- Ace at Zone survival (though the whole ‘immortality’ thing might be cheating)
Comment with any questions/concerns. I am willing to rewrite some details if they are conflicting with anything!
