Bio: Dr. Pilgrim is a little known man that has been running around for many years, this little bastard wields powers that are long since forgotten and holds the secrets of the forbidden arts of voodoo. This man is originally hails from Boston and has had a very tragic upbringing being born of human stock, so when he would reach puberty and he would transform into a gnome. He would suffer the trauma of his bones shrinking and his features morphing, this event alone would alter Pilgrims mentality and would be the driving force in his adult life. It was the events of his change and the trauma the ensued from the torment of his peers and his family that would stay with him. Dr. Pilgrim was to become a rare alternate species known simply as a Gnome that is a variant to the Dwarven sub species. Needless to say his memory of anything prior to the change has been eradicated from the trauma of his change and his earliest memories of being a gnomish teenager are clouded in violence and abuse.
        Dr. Pilgrim as well was suffering all of the mental issues of his change and he didn’t have luxury of the tolerance of the 2070’s, he was growing up in a time when the first metahumans where starting to appear before the official goblinization period. He changed during the awaking and this would as well mean he was already a teenager by the time the Ghost Dance would ravage the land and his semi-peaceful suburban town of Arlington Massachusetts had turned into a nightmare of warring natives and mercenaries. Dr. Pilgrim was as well being haunted by his dreams and the spirits of the land seeing that he not only was the one of the first metahumans on the earth he was as well joining the sixth world. This was allot for a teenage boy to absorb and for him everything was just beginning and it will be a long time of pain and torment before he would find his place in this world.
        As Dr. Pilgrim got older his troubles would just follow him, as he would be physically abused by his alcoholic father and ignored by his enabler of a mother. He would have to sit by and watch as his brothers and sisters where as well abused, do to him being to small to stand up and defend his younger siblings. Dr. Pilgrim grew up in a large Catholic family the treated him like he was the devil incarnate for his magical prowess and his non human frame. This would lead to many years of being left out of family activities and being locked in the attic or basement as punishment or when guests would arrive. Dr. Pilgrim would make the best of these lonely days by throwing himself into his studies and trying to be the best he could, he knew that he had to go to college and he knew that he needed to free himself of the oppression of the man who claimed to be his father.
       Though for Barney this would still be a long time away, and he would have a very rocky road ahead. This man who was a whiz in school and sitting at the head of the class was still filled with anger and frustration, these feelings would send him straight into a life of crime. Barney would spend most of his free time hanging around Boston and getting himself into trouble fighting in the local turf wars between the native Bostonians and the Natives, and for Barney when he would come home he would be beaten again for being late for dinner. This would lead to many times he would never come home and just spend his time living on the streets of Boston and like most studious pupils he would still make it back for school and then back out to Boston. For Dr. Pilgrim he had become very active in the freedom of Boston and he was very proud of his American birth-rites, though this would eventually cause him to begin to spend more time in the city and less in school.
        As his grades where slipping and Dr. Pilgrim was spending less time at home, the trouble at his home in Arlington was growing as his fathers rage was spilling over to his siblings and one Christmas morning as Dr.Pilgrim was fighting alongside some of the greatest runners of today’s age to forcibly evict the natives from there homes and from the city proverb. His father was in the midst of a drunken rage, brought on from a night of drinking and since he didn’t have his punching bag he focused his rage and murdered all of Barney’s siblings and his mother before turning the gun on himself and blowing his brains out in the living room. For Barney he was dealing with a very violent situation of ethnic genocide and was just acting on his instincts and not thinking everything through.
       When the smoke cleared, he was standing with some of the best the world will ever see, but this young man would not understand the impact of his actions for many years to come. This was how he became a member of the Freedom Patriots and was given the moniker of Plymouth, but it was during this chaos that he saw clearly and seeing all the damage he was responsible for Dr. Pilgrim felt a stirring in his heart and he knew that this was not what he wanted and this was not what he was meant for. It was this that would bring Dr. Pilgrim home that Christmas and when he would arrive home he would be greeted by ambulances, police and considered neighbours. As he would now be forced to face his demons yet again as he would stare down the flying questions from the police and the muffled whispers from the neighbours.  For Barney he lost everything that night, he couldn’t go home any more and he could’t return to Boston as he was a suspect in both his families slaughter and the Boston Slaughter his life was crumbling before him and with no family and being under eighteen he would become part of the foster system and moved into a foster home for the next two years.
        During those two years he managed to fix his grades and bring himself back into the forefront of his class, he just focused on his education and put everything else behind him. Though he would still feel the call of the spirits and hear the cry of the wildcat, Barney just ignored his gifts and dove head first into his education. After graduation when he turned eighteen he was awarded his inheritance and thrown to the wolves as he was no longer part of the system and he would have to fend for himself. This is where his luck would change and for the first time in a long time karma would shine down on Barney as he would receive a full scholarship to Princeton University do to his grades, his being an orphan and his being a rare metahuman. Barney decided that this was a sign and he was going to try to help people like him, and he was going to focus his studies on metahuman physiology and arcane studies. Barney would be a rising star in the world of academia, and with his real world perspective of magic he would excel far beyond the students that where looking at it through a practical aptitude. Barney was already an advanced caster by the time he entered the university and the further studies just fast tracked him through the humdrum of his day to day life.
        After graduation, he decided to continue his education at the prestigious Harvard Medical School, again he would have karma shine upon him and his education would be paid for. He was awarded the Patriots Scholarship Program, or in reality he was being retro paid for the operations he did for them in Boston as a teenager. Though Dr. Pilgrim had not a clue of this, and it wasn’t till many years later he figured it out. The remainder of his education would go uneventful for Barney, his past would not come to haunt him. For some reason Barney was allowed to escape his troubled youth and all the killing and graduate Harvard Medical School with high honours. He would go on to become one of the worlds best Paediatrician, after further schooling. Dr. Pilgrim had managed to triumph against all odds and he managed to become a world class doctor even though the deck was stacked against him. This man proves that hard work and determination one can amount to anything, though for Dr. Pilgrim he would reach the peak even becoming the Chief of Paediatrics at Boston Memorial Hospital. Though once you reach the peak, there is only one way to go and that is down, and for Dr. Pilgrim his two decade long rise to the top would cause him to fall hard once the rug was pulled out from underneath him as Boston’s most beloved Paediatric Doctor would become one of the most wanted people in all of Boston.
        During this time, the Freedom Patriots had fully taken control over the city through force and through rigged elections. Though there was a short period of time that Boston got stolen from the grasp of Colonial and his Patriots, when a man they championed for to become Mayor turned his back on the Patriots once elected and sided with the Native American Nations and the False Flag. We in the Patriots call this the “Dark Ages of 2055” and during this time the Mayor started routing out the raciest corruption from the city and anyone who served the Patriots was at risk for arrest, and public execution for the crimes they committed against the Natives and the False Flag. This was when Dr. Pilgrims past would come back to haunt him as his magical signature, finger prints and DNA that was thought to destroyed would turn up in a case file long since forgotten. This doctor would watch as his face would be plastered all over the television and newspapers as a terrorist, and murderer. He was just one of many, that would end up having to flee Boston to save their necks as Colonial and Snoopy worked like madmen to restore control over Boston.
      The Dark Ages sent many good Patriots into exile and forced them to go deep underground to stay safe, for Dr. Pilgrim he managed to find solace inside Seattle and was able to continue his work as a doctor in the many shadow clinics helping the poor and the criminal alike. Though for Dr. Pilgrim his magical practices would start to burn deep inside him as he would start to hear the voodoo drums again and he knew his Loa spirit was calling him back to the fight. He knew that he was a soldier of the spirits and he could no longer sit by and do nothing as the enemy grew in strength and it’s oppressive clutches began to choke the life out of the people all around him.
       This is how Dr. Pilgrim would return to the world of the runner and he would eventually become a force to be reckoned with, this old timer highly trained in the magical studies loaded to bear with top notch bio-organic implants and some of the more terrifying foci ever would enter the world classified as a next generation runner. Even though Plymouth is far more skilled and could truly be classified as a founding father, I guess this proves that you never judge a book by its cover. While inside the Seattle shadows this little gnome would cause so much chaos and become such a serious threat to the enemy that he would be forced to even flee the city to keep himself alive. Plymouth would have to travel from city to city and he would become a legend in the underworld with his soldier style combative nature and his ability to wield a sword like a true master. Though it was his forbidden voodoo practices that made him even more of a threat, this man wields magic long lost and forgotten, he might not be able to summon spirits but he can sure control them, his zombie dust is the real deal and do not let him get any of your DNA unless you want to find out about the harsh reality of a voodoo doll.
       Were Dr. Pilgrim learned his voodoo practices in unknown but one can only assume that he developed them just after the awakening and has spent nearly six decades mastering this forbidden art. His skills in battle are as well frighting to behold, as he has the blessings of the Loa of War and follows the way of the wildcat. This little man has stolen the memories of some of the best of his enemy and has managed to harness these memories to train himself in there tactical abilities. Yes voodoo sorcerers can enter your head and steal even your purest of thoughts, nothing is sacred to these casters. Once they are done with your husk of a body they turn you into a mindless zombie to serve them forever more, This man’s powers are so advanced that even some of the greatest sorcerers in the Caribbean League have refereed to Plymouth as a true master of voodoo. This man know serves the patriots full time, though do to his past he is a bit paranoid and a bit off his rocker.
       Plymouth has travelled all over this hemisphere fighting against the enemy, and even served five years inside the Caribbean League’s Death Squad before leaving Duke Wellington’s employ and returning back to the UCAS to deal with the Natives and the False Flag. In the summer of 2070 Dr. Pilgrim would once again assault the enemy forces inside Boston but this time he would not only slaughter countless soldiers, he would then raise the fallen and force them to fight as undead soldiers against their once allies. Plymouth has proven in recent years that the ancient form of magic known as necromancy still exists and he has become a master of the art of the death magic, where he learned it is unknown and Plymouth is not talking. But these skills make him crucial in the fight against a vast enemy and also just seeing this little bastard on the battlefield is enough to unnerve even the most battle hardened solider.
       Plymouth is blessed with unique paranormal abilities, forbidden magic and lost arts. This man has gone full circle in his life and the once good caring doctor has long since hung up his doctors coat for a field jacket and taken to the streets as force of nature. If you see this little bugger running around count your lucky stars as he doesn’t normally allow himself to be scene and this means you are not his target. If you are hiss target even committing suicide can’t save you from an eternity of service, this man has the power over life and death. With Plymouth serving the Patriots the scales have just swung heavily in one direction.
       He has returned once again to Seattle to throw his hat in the ring when it comes to the war for freedom, and according to my investigators Dr. Pilgrim still serves within the Caribbean League special forces. This completely verifies the alliance between the League, The Confederates and the Patriots, as Plymouth is a ranking officer of Colonel inside the special operations division of the League Army. He is also a medical doctor that has long since forgotten his oath and has used his vast knowledge of anatomy to further his attacks against the supposed enemy. Do yourself a favour when it comes to this island snake from Boston avoid him at all costs, Plymouth wears a mask of being a hero when in reality he is nothing more then a murderous bastard. Don’t fall victim to his charm or his warm compassionate façade cause thats all it is and for Dr. Pilgrim he wants you to believe you can trust him and drop your guard around him for thats when you will feel the snakebite and he will be fully in control of you, he is a voodoo sorcerer and master of necromancy this means he is evil so don’t be fooled his magical practices are outlawed for a reason.
