Biography:

James Porter was born on May 14 at Kings Cross in London, England. Porter was not an exceptional student growing up though aptitude tests revealed his propensity for science. Encouraged by faculty and his parents, he was able to follow an unorthodox manner of education through tutors, home-schooling, and field science. Flourishing from his break from formal studies, he quickly developed his skills in chemistry, biology, and math. During his gap year, Porter was uninterested in pursuing a formal university education. He enlisted in the British Army and forged a fake ID in order to circumvent parental consent.

After basic training, he was stationed in Belfast, finding the posting to be a bit dull. In the wake of the March 2007 treaty, he joined the Army Boxing Team as a middleweight. Though the rigidity of army rules wasn't always a good fit, it was offset by the diverse range of training and experiences army life gave him. While he has been reprimanded for breaking rules, his superiors quickly recognized both his innovation and strategic perspective. Porter was then encouraged and successfully joined the SAS.

At an unspecified time, Porter adopted and raised a daughter. He went on to be recruited to Rainbow in 2015. Over the next few years, he participated in dozens of missions for the organization. He grew to be popular among fellow operatives and was considered valuable despite showing recklessness at times. In 2022, Porter was placed on Team Kali for the Six Invitational. With the event's conclusion, Porter and his teammates accepted Kali's offer to leave Rainbow and join Nighthaven. Porter was present in the vehicle alongside Kali and Ela Bosak as they drove away from the Stadium. As Ela was questioning her decision to leave, Porter told her it took guts for her to follow her heart. He then removed his gas mask and welcomed Ela to Nighthaven.

Months later, Porter and his men were accompanied by Keng "Grim" Boon as they discovered an unconscious Nighthaven guard in the forest outside of the organization's headquarters. Grim noted that the guard was hit hard but would live. Moments later they heard gun shots over the radio and saw flashes in the server room of the nearby facility. Grim ordered Porter to withdraw as he entered alone. Following the intruder's escape, Porter was informed by Grim via radio that server data of QCR shipment records had been stolen and that he was not sure who would take it or why.

Psychological Profile:

Porter is a thrill seeker with very little regard for his personal safety. He is fearless in battle and can be a great asset for defensive maneuvers. However, he seems to enjoy the havoc and chaos of war. He tends to have an odd sense of humor in stressful situations. Can be narcissistic. Porter prefers to acquire knowledge and skills, such as language and music, in his own way and does not excel in a formal training capacity.

Psychological Report (by rainbow):

Porter is consistently described as detached. His files describe that his "aloofness" occurs during high-intensity situations. It's likely not detachment, but focus. Porter is believed to have mastered a way to stay on task and filter out dangerous distractions. He strives to keep emotions away from decision-making, opting for outlets such as live music events to deplete the tension, thus enabling him to be the person he needs to be on the job.

It's clear that Porter's parents encouraged him to be a free spirit and develop his education and personality on his own terms. While it resulted in some unfortunate mishaps - one science experiment left some physical scars but no emotional ones that are visible to the public - there was great benefit in it. Porter's free range education helped create a complex, dynamic person who isn't easily categorized.

Porter is popular among his teammates and considered valuable despite some recklessness. Descriptions such as thrill-seeker and fearless almost seem simplistic, however. There's more nuance to Porter than that. He's measured and understands calculated risks. Porter - and other operators - understand that it's more important to respect fear than to try to pretend we never feel it.

Self-taught from an early age, Porter continues to spend time cultivating his own identity. He enjoys acquiring experiences and once he's mastered them, moves on. The exception is his adopted daughter which he shares very little about. One must wonder why a child is surrounded by so much dangerous paraphernalia, but Porter states that she is now in high school, excelling within the system he himself was unable to comprehend. Through her, he sees the world in new ways - exactly the kind of challenge he adores.

Psychological Report (by Kali):

Porter is a difficult man to pin down. Change seems to be his defining trait, and he always seeks to push boundaries. Why didn't he join Nighthaven sooner..?

Smoke is very private about his daughter. The details of her current status and location will remain confidential, but he'll be pleased to know she can be extracted at a moment's notice by Nighthaven's personell, if needed.

Device description: Compound ZB Gas Grenade.

Porter requested a portable defence system that could deliver the most damage to intruders in a targeted area. Fashioned with a remote detonator, Porter can view the results from a distance. The mines are filled with a collection of biological substances, that on their own are inert, but when combined, have a more volatile effect. The resulting concoction incapacitates anyone exposed to it.

Device Evaluation:

Controlled tests of the Compound Z8 Grenade required a number of measures including limiting the presence of lab personnel to only the most critical. Strict rules surrounding the PPE disposal (personal protective equipment) and protocols for hazards had to be maintained at all times. Even though the facility is state-of-the-art, additional precautionary measures were required before testing could begin.

The Compound Z8 Grenade mixture's incapacitating agents are comprised of - [DATA EXPUNGED]. As such, the presence of Specialist James Porter and Specialist Liu Tze Long was used during testing.

First tests were basic data gathering, including the structural integrity and design of the canisters, as well as deployment timing and range of effect. Evaluation also included a series of tests to measure exposure guidance levels, and where necessary, antidote compounds are under current review as well. Data results from testing will be will also be mentioned when they are ready.

Was it also mentioned that the color of the gas from Porter's Compound ZB grenades is yellow?
