Lars Brekkenhal, aka “Hammerhead”. Troll (40 BP) Bodyguard
“Don’t sweat it, chummer. We both know how these things work. You need a top draw bodyguard, I need a drekload of nuyen. You got secrets, and hell, I hate corp fraggers. But I’ll tell you what. You pay me right, and I’ll keep your important salaryman alive long enough for my fee to clear. My eyes miss nothin’, and my ears hear ‘em long before they draw a bead on your guy. When I engage, I finish things quick. I don’t make mistakes, can’t afford to in this biz. No man, elf or tusker will set foot near your boy as long as I live. And I don’t die easy, Mr Johnson. Trust me on that.”
Hammerhead is a 25 yr old Troll specialising in close combat protection. He worked for a few corps in the past (most notably Knight Errant), but was left for dead on a contract that went horribly wrong. Surviving only with the help of a Samaritan street doc, he found a new world view and abandoned his employer, taking his expensive implants to the shadows. He hates the corps, but loves their nuyen, and (more often than he likes) is willing to bend his rules to complete a job. He’s only hit the Seattle plex recently, and remains a relative newcomer with a minor rep.
