CHARACTER INFORMATION

NAME:Rhys
CANON:Borderlands (Tales from the Borderlands)
AGE: 30
CANON POINT: just at the end of episode 4, after agreeing to rule Hyperion alongside Handsome Jack

BACKGROUND: here is the wiki link for Rhys, though it isn't kept current to the latest episode release, so have a link to all my in game choices with visual references! All that aside, Rhys is a low level Hyperion employee with a heart of anxious, sometimes selfish gold that idolized his former boss (Hyperion's recently deceased CEO) Handsome Jack. Rhys accidentally uploads a copy of Handsome Jack into his skull while attempting to survive a stolen deal gone wrong alongside a con artist Named Fiona, and realizes the truth is that his hero was not the totally cool dude he thought he was.


INCENTIVE/FIT: Rhys made the deal to save his best friend since college, Vaughn, from death or life in captivity or all the horrible internal assumptions he's making in regards to his bff's unknown whereabouts (since having literally every ounce of the cash in the universe can't save someone from being flat out missing and surrounded by killer bandits, after all).

He's not necessarily a prude, but he is awkward and more prone to needing time to get attached to someone versus just flat out taking the train to bonetown on a whim, but it's a hurdle not a brick wall in regards to physical interaction, and I can't see it getting in the way of him functioning effectively in game.

SAMPLES: thread with Fiona and thread with Timothy Lawrence

ANYTHING ELSE? Rhys has a cybernetic arm, eye and a port drilled into the side of his skull and I definitely would love for those to stay features in Eudio instead of going the full fleshy route:

His eye performs scans of surrounding people/objects/places etc (examples: 1 /2/ 3) and cross checks them with an internet database to pull up relevant information, but seeing as how the net and world function differently here I'm fine with that information being either unreliable or just nonexistent at all (ie letting other PCs decide if they want anything to come up) or nixing the scans entirely.

His arm is used as...well, an arm, but also since he's a programmer he uses it for everything from phone calls to hacking and remote computer usage, so again, if it has to just be an arm, I'll survive!

The port in the side of his skull, however, houses the functioning, self-aware AI of Handsome Jack (more information is listed here), and I'd love it if the split personality issue of two people inhabiting one body could stay since so much of the series revolves around that fact.

Lastly, Rhys has a little broken robot named Dumpy as a sort of pet/sidekick - however his voice modulator is broken so he only screams.
