Name: Cyber Tech Inc.
Leader: Jason Hayden
Faction Size: Approximately 500 million employees galaxy wide.
Tech Level: CTI is a large company dedicated to achieving humanity's potential, via the process of replacing the flesh with metal, and ensuring that humanity always has the upper hand by making the best weapons that they can.
Background: CTI was created by Jason Hayden as a means to provide cheap and effective cybernetic augmentations to the public. Jason accomplished this goal for two reasons. He grew up noticing people were sometimes missing parts of their body. He thought it was strange, and it came to a head when he was diagnosed with inoperable cancer. Since then CTI has pushed Cybernetic augmentations as a solution to many of the problems that organic life had issues with. Jason himself even indulges in cybernetics and has as many augments as is body will allow and even finding ways to weapons inside of the augments.
On the surface at least. CTI is much deeper than it seems. While Jason pushes cybernetics and weapon technology as CTI's standard fare, he's working on much, much more advanced technology in secret. Dark matter reactors, zero point energy weapons, kill bots, and consciousness transferal are just the beginning.
Name/Alias: Jason Hayden
Gender: Male
Age: 153
Species: Cybernetic Human
Appearance: Jason Bot Jason's real body.
Backstory: Jason was born along time ago by human standards. Ever since he was a child, he always had a fascination with robots. Watching movies that featured always had him rooting for the machine, even if it was the antagonist. When he grew up he went into bionic engineering in hopes of finding a way to upgrade his body. Fortunately he was extremely gifted in this field and pushed the concept farther than any previous. Helping with the battery issue and the biggest issue, having the organic parts reject the mechanical parts. Once the technology was stable and safe, partly as a publicity stunt for his company and partly because he was tired of his weak and flimsy body failing him.
Jason augmented himself as much as he could possibly go. Leaving more machine than man. His company took off and he quickly became one of the wealthiest men alive. He never cared for the money as anything more than a means to an end. A few decades passed and eventually he pushed out into the galactic market, only furthering his technological progress and ideas. But like all things, something has to go wrong, and go wrong it did. Jason was diagnosed with a very unusual, aggressive form of brain cancer. As luck would have it, it was inoperable without causing severe brain damage and crippling his vast intelligence. This was the last straw. Things were going to change for him. He never told anyone but the heads of his R&D department. He was not going to die. And no one was to know about his disease.
He had a robotic body built, not just a basic one, but one the represented everything that he stood for. He wanted the body to be everything that CTI had to offer. Using technology that was either illegal, untested, or just flat out dwarfed the rest of the galaxy, he designed his new body. Once that was done, Jason was very close to death and as such had one final mission before he died. He transferred his consciousness from himself into the new body. And was absolutely thrilled with the results. No more migraines and spinning rooms. No more aches and pains. No more exhaustion. No more memory issues. Even his R&D was shocked to the fact that not only did it work, but Jason seemed really happy despite having burned most of his personal fortune in building this masterpiece. The final thing he did was had a modified customer service A.I. take the place of his old body while using his new one as a bodyguard. No one but the highest level scientists knew about this, and Jason told them that letting this information leak without his consent would carry severe consequences. They agreed that this was a secret best kept for the moment.
Powers and Abilities: Jason Bot: A basic mouthpiece for Jason to use to keep his company together. Everyone, but a very small number of people believe this to be the real Jason. This body is far beyond the strength of flesh and has several systems built in to keep him safe.
Supernatural Condition: The robot is inhumanly strong, fast, and combat oriented. Thanks to all of the augments, it's very difficult to damage, and even harder to destroy.
Built in Weapons Systems: The robot has a vast array of weaponry. Including plasma blades, shock blasters, and incinerator cannons.
Supernatural Immunity: Because it's a machine, nearly all forms of poison are useless, psionics have limited use against it, it no longer requires oxygen, and is immune to pain.
Jason's Real Body: The real body of Jason Hayden, designed by himself. This body was referred to as a "personal body guard using the best CTI has to offer." Jason muses that he would be considered a WMD in many portions of the galaxy if they knew what the body was capable of. He possess all of the above powers, but to a much greater degree. Along with several experimental weapons and system either not found, or rarely found throughout the galaxy.
Infinite Energy: Jason's body uses a Dark Matter reactor that not only burns cleanly, but provides him with an absurd amount of power that will never degrade.
Hardlight Manipulation: Jason's body is capable of manipulating hardlight to such a fine degree, that it's capable of creating and maintaining constructs. Also used primarily as the invisible force field that's around the body.
Zero-Point Energy Manipulation: CTI's answer to a nonlethal solution against violence. This technology allows him to freeze anything up to the size of a large battle taink down to a quantum level and move it without causing harm or damage to the target.
Technology Manipulation: The most experimental system Jason has. The ability to recode, rewrite, and even take control of other technology. It's a bit buggy, but more or less works with anything with an AI.
Weaknesses: Ego: Jason is, understandably, incredibly confident in his abilities as an engineer and really doesn't like being questioned on it.
Instability: Jason's new body, while profoundly advanced, isn't perfectly stable. While he theoretically could output infinite power, the body is not designed to handle that much stress. Too much and he could damage the delicate parts of it.
Standard Equipment: His body.
Intelligence: Jason is considered to be one of the foremost robotic and cybernetic engineers in the galaxy. And doesn't mind reminding people of it.
Optional stuff.
