BIO:

Well its time to talk about the old man known as Crash, and with a name like that you would assume he was a rigger. Well you would be wrong, Crash earned his name from causing hundreds if not thousands to crash figuratively. This killer has found away to administer a lethal does of a heart medication to cause instant cardiac failure in his targets with a simple glancing blow. He originally used a squirt as his weapon of choice, but even with armour piercing tips, it became unreliable as amour technology improved. So Crash adapted to the changing times and he has found a his personal preference a modified hand crossbow that is adapted to the users own strength, and it offers a wide variety of tips that can make each kill unique and adaptable. The only thing that doesn’t change is the medication, and this even Crash has adapted to deal with the new bio-organic hearts and cyber filters. So basically whenever technology tries to put Crash out of business he seems to evolve and survive.

         This runner comes from what we refer to as the Lost Generation, though he is one of the first of that generation. If he had emerged on the streets a few years earlier he would have been a founder remember that when thinking Crash is a pushover. It is known that before ingratiating to Seattle in the 2040’s he was originally working for the crime families in Sicily and Crash has done many European tours, and each one he made a hell of a killing. Why Crash came to the UCAS is unknown, but once he got here he didn’t stop killing, and he quickly made a name for himself as the go to guy for dealing with a nuisance. Crash doesn’t have to directly hit you to bring down his target so his indirect style has made him a favourite for a employer looking for the subtle kill.

        Since Crash induces a heart attack in his victims that can’t be corrected or stopped as he gives you the big one. Authorities normally overlook any additional wound tracks and that don’t run toxin screens and when they do they are not looking for heart medication. Though through the years and the countless bodies turning up from apparent heart attacks, the Medical Examiners office has begun to officially look into each case of suspicious cardiac arrest. Again this hasn’t stopped Crash and he has only become even more lethal, with the advent of all the new heart medications being pumped out by Bio-Tech and other pharmaceutical companies and they can’t ban the production of this medication so Crash has a steady supply of his killer cocktail.

         He might appear to be your typical grandfather, but that is his only adhering quality as Crash is as cold as they come and this man might be a mercenary, but in actuality he is nothing more then a contract killer with a very lengthy resume. Crash is active inside Seattle again after many years of being off the grid, though some speculate he was working inside New York City during this period. Crash like many of the old timers has set his sights on the enemies of Seattle and this has many in the Federal Government very nervous as Crash is one killer that you can’t prevent. His chosen toxic cocktail is a drug that is needed and legal, his cocktail many of his targets already take on a daily basis for heart conditions. This has people very nervous that Crash can strike and give them the big one. Crash has already made his presence known, by striking down a few of the federal judges as they celebrated the holidays with their families.

       Now when it comes to Crash you might think he is just a silent killer and this man in confronted can be an easy mark. Well again you couldn’t be more wrong, Crash is a highly skilled combatant trained in multiple different martial arts this little man is as deadly as most black belts with his hands and in other forms of combat Crash served many years with the British intelligence before going rogue and working as a soldier and hit man. He has received military combat training and he has been a soldier of fortune for almost 30 years so as for Crash being a pushover in combat. Well he is still haunting the shadows and causing panic with just the thought of his return.

      This another one of those shadow warriors that I must emphasize is extremely deadly and will not think twice about killing. He is also very sensitive about his height, so to poke fun at him about it can cause a one way trip to a funeral home. Also he is 100% Sicilian so this needs to be stated, as Crash might seem jovial but remember he has a very volatile temper that when engaged will not be sedated till the offender is deceased. His temper is not like that of Powder Kegs where it’s explosive, no Crash’s temper is subtle and their are very few warning signs. If he suddenly goes silent, and starts breathing through the back of his teeth you could be in serious trouble. As they say, never trust a silent Italian, well for a Sicilian silence is fatal and they are plotting your demise, so basically tread carefully when dealing with Crash. This man is old fashioned and from the old country so he follows a hole different set of rules, and those rules must be followed or they could cause Crash to blow his lid.

        In conclusion, I do hope I have not upset Crash with this article cause I really don’t want to end up on his very long list of victims and also this man never forgives and never forgets. So when dealing with Crash, do not underestimate this man’s capabilities, be respectful and never make a short joke or it could be you clenching your chest having the big one and beginning your journey to the pearly gates.
