Cadet

There's nothing that'll stop me from getting what I want. No security system, no firewall, and certainly not any damn corporate pigs. I'll take down everyone that gets in my way. Stand aside or bleed for your corporate masters.

Cadet [Real Name: UNKNOWN], is a notorious hacker and criminal. On his home planet, he's wanted for numerous crimes, majority against corrupt corporations that exploit the masses for profit. Priding himself in his hacking and infiltration skills, he takes what he wants in pursuit of his goal: Revenge.

Backstory

Cadet grew up in squalor, but it didn't really matter to him. Technology was common place and he loved it. He loved tinkering with it and seeing the things he could make in digital spaces spurred him onwards. And so did his little sister and mother. His father left shortly after his younger sister, Riisa, was born, when cadet was only 6. Deliyah, his mother, became rather sickly after her second child, but still did everything to care for her children, as they in return cared for her when she became bed ridden. The three struggled to get by, but they scraped through.

That was, anyways, till a large tech company has a security scare. They were looking for whoever has caused it, and traced it to a shoddy apartment building. They got the apartment wrong. They broke in and found Deliyah and Riisa with Cadet's slowly accumulated equipment, the picturesque image of a hackers den. When Deliyah tried to explain there was a mistake, they took her protests for resistance and shot her down, as well as Riisa who she was trying to protect. Cadet came back to see the private military soldiers leaving his apartment, and the only family he knew collapsed dead. Cadet was 10.

Cadet grew, and so did his anger. His hatred for this city. For the corruption that let this and many other crimes committed by large corporations be swept under the rug for just a few hundred credits. Cadet wanted to see it all burn. So he learned. He learned to break into mainframes and expose every crime they did. To rob credits from their bloated bank accounts. To infiltrate and steal their developmental tech, including a certain military AI.

He erased his true name, and became the hacker C4D3T.

He couldn't have his family back, so he would turn this city into something they could've lived in peacefully. And that starts with every power hungry corporation that turned this city into a horrible capitalistic hellscape, where you had money or you died to make others money.

Personality

Cadet is a spiteful and closed off individual. His trust is not easily given, and only acts aimable to those he sees as useful for his quest.

He may do good actions, but he's no hero. He has no qualms about killing if someone blocks his path. He sees anyone that involves themselves with corruption
