Scipio Polian

A veteran soldier of the USC, Scipio has seen extensive combat and has no qualms about killing for the community. He may be best known for being the personal security overseer for Lucius Cadius Titus.

Scipio is of mixed USC ancestry, with no real details beyond that. He is currently installed in a heavy cybernetic frame, but has some organic material left. The frame has a large build and stands 7'2“ tall. He has lost all his naturally brown hair to scar tissue and cybernetic conversion. His eyes are cybernetically replaced and act without colored irises.

Scipio is known to be aggressive, fearless, and loyal, but can also be violent without cause, judgmental, and proud.

Scipio, like most gene-soldiers, was pod-birthed from known combat-optimized batch gametes, and was given only a single name. He was raised in a combat collective center until age 15, then sent to combat university to perform the standard membership tests and establish a military placement score. With middling results Scipio was partially cybernized, and slotted for basic infantry work.

Scipio first saw combat action in the Celic invasion, and performed adequately. He was wounded twice, but was not further cybernized.

Scipio was staged on the front line of the first wave of the invasion of Agathos, where he assaulted and destroyed a regional air defense battery single-handed. For this he was given the second name “Polian” and chosen to be installed in a large cybernetic frame. He was left with an organic brain, however, to mitigate a neurological issues identified that could cause cyber-psychosis. He was given advanced combat training, and placed on VIP/asset protection.
