DRAMATIS PERSONAE: Access

Possibly the least outgoing member of the exiles aboard the Kali-Ma is a man who refers to himself as Access. Very little is known of this quiet, cyber-headed fellow, even by the authorities who placed him on the ship in the first place.

Access was arrested after police attempted to check his personal details when he became a witness in a bank robbery. Although most of the details required for daily life were present they could find no long term records of his existance, fingerprint, retina pattern, DNA, all standard forms of solid identification used regularly among the worlds of the Alliance Government, were not registered to any known person. How he proceeded from this discovery of his status as an unregistered citizen to his arrival on the Kali-Ma he has thus far declined to make clear, all he has told of his treatment is that his former body, almost entirely cyberised, has been replaced by a clone, and most of the modifications which resided in his head have been stripped. All that remains of Access' old cybernetics are those portions too closely bonded with his brain that they cannot be safely removed.

Although he has been stripped of much of his former self Access remains a skilled hacker, and is quite proud of his electronic skills. His pride in his abilities is often not expressed in words however, Access tends to be rather introverted in the flesh. Displays of pride are generally restricted to casually performing difficult tasks in a public manner, allowing others to observe first hand, even if they do not appreciate his achievements. The hacker is fair and unbiased in his dealings with others, treating everyone equally and without prejudice. Always, however, he acts with a certain detachment from those around him, seeing the world as being a single player experience, and everyone around him to be merely another Non-Player Character, excepting perhaps the sapient AI, who he firmly, if quietly, believes have awakened somewhere on the internet.
