 Part I: Personal Profiles

'''There four (4) images are packaged with this test. Write a short history and character profile for each of these criminals. (About 25 - 35 words each ) '''



Man 1:      Chain Chahook is a big man and he knows it. He had always used his strength to get what he wanted. He was raised as an orphan in the inhumane conditions of the Oil rig camps of the Arctic North, dishonorably discharged for racketeering and selling Army equipment, now prowls the Evercold plains as a guide, hunter and enforcer for the Hancock Family.





Man 2:     Ben Rossario aka “The Connector”, brilliant IT specialist and Networker. Once had stellar career opportunities until he robbed his first bank. Not with a gun and mask, but hacking into the Currency transfer frame of a Credit Card processing company. He almost got away with it, but the big boys of the Syndicate didn’t like him taking a share of their profits. Ben was visited by well-dressed gentlemen. The choices they gave him were simple, do what you do for the Syndicate when and where they wanted it or die in a very unpleasant manner.



Woman 1:   No one really knows her true name and it is likely she has forgotten herself. Nowadays she goes by the name Silent Shadow. Not so long ago she was a just another pretty face, the bored daughter of a rich Industrialist then she discovered the thrill of killing. Using her father’s resources she trained with the best and uses the finest hardware money can buy. Silent Shadow kills for money, but she really likes doing it.

Now she is out for herself first and foremost. In a world where faceless corporations and all powerful syndicates rule what’s left of society, natural resources belong to the stronger. Environmental considerations, owner ship guaranteed by the rule of law meant nothing. Fey, just like her father a Geology expert hires out to whoever pays the most.

You go and convince him one way or the other to keep certain things alone and don’t ask questions.   If you got to kill him make it look like an accident. Killing a Ranger openly creates too much attention.   Be careful he is a crack shot from what I hear.

It will be worth billions as soon as they go public. Now one of their competitors decided to even the field by announcing the development of a similar drug. This is where you come in. Make sure you get a copy of the formula and make sure Chem Pharma loses all their data on that drug for good.   This hard drive needs to be plugged in on their main compute and the Virus on it will do the rest.
