Who is striker to ghost? I'm assuming they aren't next gen human?
nah, striker is also nextgen! when i first created him, he was just going to be another tool with which i whumped ghost (hehe), but the more i thought about him, the more the plan shifted. hes ghost Savior in so many ways - like, hes the leader of a rebel group that does stuff like rescue droves of imprisoned nextgen people from prison, but also hes not just a tactician guy (there is a different tactics guy), hes the one that Goes In and lets hinself be arrested to be the inside man. he puts it all on the line but for other people, not himself.
he rescues ghost from the prison.
but he also gives ghost a place to go after. granted, its a huge (abandoned and derelict) compound and other rescuees were also invited, but he and ghost were Also cellmates, and he promised that space to ghost before he had revealed his true intentions.
at first he just looked out for ghost, he could tell he was just a clueless kid (in comparison)
as time goes on they get closer. striker has to vouch for ghost a number of times before the other renegade nextgens because fact of the matter is, he was technically a rly high level enforcer for a mafia group that uhhhh was heavily involved in nextgen human trafficking, and most folks arent gonna try and get to know his whole life story before making judgements, ya know? theres a lot of conflict. he has to prove himself over and over but he does! he does and it helps and he slowly builds himself a home in the crew of misfits and they all get closer and eork to make the world a slightly better place for people who are different.
also they fucked like, constantly in jail and after escaping fall in love hehe
