PROJECT PANDORA.
ricky aguilar lost his parents in an industrial fire caused by faulty tech regulation. alongside his much older brother, he was placed into the foster system, bouncing between homes, from which the two regularly escaped. while fending for themselves, they survived by stealing and salvaging. sharp-eyed and curious, ricky learned to pull apart whatever scraps they found and taught himself how each component worked. while trying to rob a building they judged abandoned, the siblings were caught by a secretive criminal crew known as the tech jackals, founded by ex-military rogues and black-market engineers. instead of killing the brothers, the gang decided to recruit them.
while still in his early teens, ricky began intense training in archery and honed his natural talent for repairing and recreating weapons. in addition, he learned how to infiltrate highly guarded buildings and areas to steal advanced tech or uncover sensitive information. over the years, his abilities improved, both in weaponry design and near-perfect accuracy with a bow. while his true identity remained a mystery, the alias killshot gained notoriety across the criminal underworld. this growing legend eventually drew the attention of pandora’s recruiters.
agent killshot has been a part of project pandora for six years, but never underwent the mutation process. to best utilize his skillset, the agent was placed in the fortitude division. he has shown expertise in engineering, hacking, cyber warfare, and marksmanship, as well as proficiency in stealth, infiltration, deception, seduction, sleight of hand, acrobatics, and evasion. substandard performances have been noticed in persuasion and battlefield endurance.
“It creeps me out.” He handed Smoke a beer before flopping down on the couch beside him. “If I died and someone brought me back, I wouldn't be happy.”
He wasn't supposed to be saying any of this before it was announced to the rest of the agents, but he was a big blabbermouth, especially around Smoke. It's not every day Ricky gets to be involved in something as big as the cloning project. Only three other agents were involved so information on their progress was limited.
“Sure –– we won't know for certain if it works until we see the first clones up and walking around,” He took a swig of his beer. “But we're pretty confident. And you know how fucking good I am. I don't make mistakes.”
He teased, a grin spreading across his face, flashing that cocky attitude he knew Smoke loved. An arm wrapped around the Envy agent's shoulders to pull him close. He dragged his nose against his skin and placed a few kisses along his jaw.
“Next time you piss me off I can just get rid of you and get myself a brand new one to entertain me.”
