Character History
(WIP).
It was in the cards; his demise! Seen in the Lightening Struck Tower and the 9 of Swords. Working for a less savory aspect of Crey Industries; his research had delved into downloading personalities to AI chipsets. But it was missing something. It was known that Psychic transferrence was possible, but not with stable results. Tillman was the most sucessful example there was of that method.
Ace always rejected the Arcane mumbo jumbo of his family for clean simple science. Forewarned, when the lab was attacked he still had no plan. The Circle of Thorns jerk who blasted him out of existence also hit his family's ancient Tarot deck that was in his breast pocket. It made his sister feel better for him to have it ever since she did the 10 card spread that freaked her out. Bright light and pain-darkness.
He was dead...no not dead. Skewed vison and moved forward. The leftovers from his prototype that he had shipped a day earlier. He was testing a chipset so had a head set on a bottom torso to test the leg movements. What seemed no time passed - was weeks. His lab was being packed away it appeared. When he finally was able to manipulate things with the spare arm frames, his shock at the date was hard. His relization fo his bodiy's destruction was harder.
Luckily, the robotic assembly-line equipment was still there to finish his assembly with rejected parts
Tarot-Byte arose & a killer would PAY!
He later upgraded his form with waht part could be scrounged by the enterprising Moxy Bestminion. She was all for best working model with most powerful add-ons over esthetics.
He is now recovering and investigating his death before coming out into open entirely.
