Cason

Cason is a seventeen-year-old man who has glasses, black hair slicked back. He wears a white shirt with an open brown jacket over it. His pants are blue jeans.

Cason grew up in Vertigo Spire—a city stacked so high clouds scraped its underbelly. While kids traded augmented-reality game mods, he salvaged fried drones from garbage chutes. His parents, corporate bio-engineers, brought home prototype neural implants; Cason bypassed security protocols before breakfast. Bullies called him "Ghostwire" for how he’d vanish into maintenance tunnels, emerging hours later clutching scavenged servo-motors. When his mother traded his birthday cake for a therapy drone ("It’ll socialize you!"), he reprogrammed it to spit solvent at anyone who insulted transistors. At fifteen, he sold a self-replicating nano-swarm to a black-market fabricator. Two years later, he bought his own home with a large workshop where he does all of his work. Bills are paid by repairing pleasure-bots for brothels and debugging security mechs for paranoid elites.

His parents live in a tower thousands of meters away; they only see each other during family reunions, which are held twice per decade on the tallest tower in the city. He rarely goes outside unless he has to buy food or meet a client.

Cason spends every free moment he has in his workshop working on some project involving technology, whether it be improving existing tech, repairing broken tech, or creating new tech. His parents had hoped he would grow out of this obsessive phase, but as he gets older, they realize that he never will. He shows very little interest in anything non-technological, preferring instead to spend time tinkering with circuits, building robots, or programming AI. If someone tries to talk to him about something unrelated to technology, he will usually become visibly annoyed and try to change the subject as quickly as possible. Despite his lack of human contact, however, Cason does have a sense of humor-although it tends to be quite dry and sarcastic.
