Personality - Coh hardly speaks, though to be fair he was a mute for the majority of his life so that's to be expected. But even if that weren't the case, the time he spent in the Kikiri Slums made him dislike conversation all the more. His early muteness was a gift in the ocean of constant negative banter that happened in the slums, but living conditions were awful so he couldn't completely blame them. As a child his adoptive parents brought him along with them on their missions within their system, which also probably desensitized him a bit, with them being guns for hire and all. Coh doesn't really respect anybody besides his reptilian father or his eccentric mother. This is seen as the man barely bats an eyelash when he sees people gunned down in Kikiri, usually feeling nothing on a good day and minor inconvenience on a bad one. But this doesn't necessarily mean that Coh is a cruel or evil person, just that he has for the most part removed emotions from factoring in to his daily life as he decided a long time ago to only trust those two people.

He is also very good at blending into a crowd because of this. His quiet nature and indifference makes it easier for Coh to slip into crime scenes or job locations where information is needed to be gathered. And even though the man isn't much of a talker, he is a phenomenal listener being able to pick out the important details in crowds of chatter with ease. This may be due to his psionic strengths as a telepath, but more than anything he finds interest in his work because it puts food on the table. And if there's anything that his father taught him that stuck into his head, it's work ethic.

Background - At some point in time Coh was born on his home planet or Vask to two loving parents and an elder brother, but some circumstances transpired resulting in him being taken at infancy and transported to the slum colony of Skou. Coh doesn’t remember much that earlier in his life, his earliest memories are of his father Dei and his mother Agitha scooping him up from a scrap pile. They were a strange pair, even by current standards, but they took Coh from nothing and cared for him as their own. The large crocodilian father-figure was the stern and strong force that pushed him to persevere in the the hell hole that they lived in. Agitha was the calming and wise counterforce that kept him from straying down too dark of a path, his parents definitely didn’t want Coh following in their footsteps.

Once he reached the refined age of fifteen his parents allowed him to inherit Agitha’s last name so the boy could get a jumpstart on his newest business endeavor, Information Broking. You see, Coh has been mute since birth, unable to verbally communicate for as long as he could remember. It took a couple years, but eventually he would show his parents signs of his telepathy, small bits of his inner thoughts transmitting themselves into their heads. With that inability to speak, Coh just focused on listening to others over all else. A perfect trait for someone who sells information, quietly spying on the denizens of the dirty slums and profiting on what’s worth knowing.

Soon enough in this profession he'd gain a name for himself in Skou as an up and coming informant, even catching the attention of some of the slum's gang dons. One of which hired Coh's parents from time to time in order to remove some undesirables from his part of town, and the pair vouched for their kid and his merits. The less than friendly crowds found his silence unnerving and irritating, which urged the don to press into the reasoning for the boy's silence. Dei simply stated it as it was, he never spoke, and he most likely wouldn't ever speak. That was a good trait to have, especially for criminals. The don offered the crocodilian paternal figure a huge lump sum of money to fund the boy a way of communicating, the man didn't know that Coh was a telepath, nobody did besides he and his parent.

Years go by and while Coh still classifies himself as a freelancer like his parents, most of the clients that buy his information are agents of the empire, while the don continues to pay him exclusively for information on other criminal groups in different locales of space. At the current, he's either at home spending time with his family or off on business trips digging up information on people that can be flipped for profit. Coh's perfectly happy with his life the way it is, there's not much attachment to anyone but the people who help him survive which is just the way he likes it. If the Empire decides to flag him down he's an informant who sells them information, and if it's some other syndicate not associates with the don, he fabricates some bullshit to throw them off.

His newest job brought him to Odyssey, not seeking any particular information, but instead to filter out what was useful and what wasn't before relaying that information back to the goons back home.

Talents

• Voice Mimicry - The mask equipped to Coh's face is capable of recording the unique pitch and frequency of a person's voice which is saved in the device for later use. This has a number of uses in his field of work, specifically for the means of deception. Coh has a preferred voice that he uses when he does speak, but even that voice isn't hit. It'll be really awkward if he ever meets the owner of the voice that he decided to claim as his own.
• Discrete Telepathy - Coh's race is known for their psionic abilities and he is no exception. As a mute Vaskian with a very strong aptitude for telepathy he's even refined those abilities specifically for his occupation. As the hooded figure slips through crowds of people he's capable of picking through their immediate thoughts for key details. Not only that, but he's capable of doing so swiftly and difficult to detect. It's a sort of mental pickpocketing in a way, not taking large streams of information, but instead simple bits of what he needs before he's on his way.
• Sleight of Hand - Being raised in a less savory part of space definitely shaped Coh into who he is, and being raised by two bounty hunters helped the boy survive through it. The first thing that Dei taught his son was how to hold a weapon and while he didn't particularly life firearms, a good Vibroblade felt right at home in Coh's hands. Dei was ruthless in teaching his son how to handle the weapon. Quick deliberate movements, no wasted actions, all with the intent to kill if the blade needs to be drawn in the first place. Coh is a formidable opponent at close range, paired with some telepathic barrages, he can handle himself when push comes to shove.

Hider

Name - Jokson Verdona
Age - 19
Gender - Male
Nationality - Albanian
Description - Jok has used video game escapism as a means of coping with his home life for as long as he could remember. Long were the days of his parents bringing strangers and foreigners into their home just so they could argue about the grievances they caused once they’ve left. It was a vicious cycle, but giving these people food and board was how Jok’s parents made their living, so instead of complaining he would crawl over to his gaming PC and disassociate. His parents didn’t mind this at all until he got into high school. He was a smart kid and they knew that, so when his test scores began to plummet they turned the internet off until his grades were higher.

It was a difficult time for Jok. Not only did his house feel invaded and uncomfortable most of the time, but high school is always a source of complications for teenagers. Around his second year he went through a severe spiral of depression that led to him not eating for a week, his test scores did improve over time, but only because studying distracted him. It would take that full week for his parents to actually notice a problem in Jok. A couple of parent teacher conferences later and he was transferring out of the school, his parents still didn’t quite know the full extent of what he was going through but nonetheless caught on to the reality that them removing his one hobby from his life along with this troubling situation wasn’t doing anything good for their son.

They eventually moved to Tirana and while it was a much larger city compared to their hometown, it was a better suited environment for Jokson. His grades would swiftly improve in the less conservative environment, where things like Esports and Live Streamers were actively talked about among the youth. He even made a few friends at school who enjoyed the same MMORPGs as him, and while he didn’t really have a popular phase, the friends who shared the same joy in video games made going to school a little more worth it for Jok. His grades improved in no time, and it was only a matter of time before college was peeking its head around the corner to bring more stress along his path.

The colleges in Albania aren’t the greatest and Jok’s parents wanted their ray of sunshine to have the best. His grades were above average, but they were able to find a government funded program to send him to U.S in exchange for having an American student stay at their home over the summer. It was ironic to Jokson that something that he hated all his life would actually result in a positive change in his life. With the short months he had left to get ready he said his goodbyes to former schoolmates, packed all of his belongings, and set out for the great U.S of A.

It was fortunate that he learned English through his online friends, though not perfect and quite broken at times. And it would be those same friends that Jok planned on spending most of his time with in Cacophony Concord, when he wasn't studying Cyber Security textbooks and taking CompTIA practice tests. The kid's wardrobe was plain enough to show that he cared little for self expression, and even less about impressing others. It was inevitable that his social life in college would be nonexistent. But his parents weren't here to tell him why that was wrong, and even if they were, it was obvious that the friends and interactions in this virtual world had much more importance than than the real thing to this gamer.

Born Again - Rev:Re

I put it on hiatus for now. It didn’t get enough interest, but I’ll try it again in the Summer most likely.

Just spec into hula hooper class.

Cacophony Concord

What nation do y'all wanna citizenship in?

@ERode

I’m not really picky with the location. They all seem pretty interesting so, I’ll be fine with whatever the majority wants. If I did have a preference it would probably be Velonta or Erid just becaause.

Do you have any particular ideas for how characters would know each other out-of-game?

@ERode

Are there Hybrid Types and Variants of the Nucleus, like in Dendogram?

Got any character concepts you’re leaning towards or set on?

@ERode

Spellbow/Eldritch Archer type of character?

Where does the Grimgar influences factor in?

Cacophony Concord

Interest, yes.
