He's lived with Cad for more than a year now, and doesn't seem as frightened of the neighborhood they live in anymore, much to Caduceus' chagrin. Kinkaid's made one or two friends, but Cad is concerned about the local gangs trying to recruit the kid. So far, Kinkaid's made intelligent choices when it comes to involvement with the locals, but Cad knows that once a friend or two gets involved, it becomes that much more tempting. Cad has arranged for decent schooling for the kid with Donald. | ||

Unfortunately, his retirement benefits don't quite cover his medical treatment, so he and Cad have come to an arrangement: Cad will take over treating him in return for Donald teaching Kinkaid a couple of hours a day. Kinkaid has clearly become attached to the older man, and the feeling is obviously mutual. | ||

Important NPCs
Kinkaid Ward Kinkaid is thirteen - a kid that Caduceus tries to parent the best he can, but their relationship is really more like that of siblings. He's lived with Cad for more than a year now, and doesn't seem as frightened of the neighborhood they live in anymore, much to Caduceus' chagrin. Kinkaid's made one or two friends, but Cad is concerned about the local gangs trying to recruit the kid. So far, Kinkaid's made intelligent choices when it comes to involvement with the locals, but Cad knows that once a friend or two gets involved, it becomes that much more tempting. Cad has arranged for decent schooling for the kid with Donald. | |
Donald Enderman Retired High School Teacher Donald is one of Cad's neighbors in their apartment building. He's a retired high school teacher with emphysema. Unfortunately, his retirement benefits don't quite cover his medical treatment, so he and Cad have come to an arrangement: Cad will take over treating him in return for Donald teaching Kinkaid a couple of hours a day. Kinkaid has clearly become attached to the older man, and the feeling is obviously mutual. |
Contacts
Marian Fixer (2 • 2) Marian is a fixer out in Auburn. In her day job, she runs a cleaning service ("Marian's Maids") which gives her access to a number of local establishments and clients. She's leveraged this into a small-time fixer career that focuses on Robin Hood-type jobs: when folks need help, they often come to Marian, who tries to hook up those genuinely in need with those willing to help - often, people like Caduceus. He's done several things for her for very cheap or even gratis, and she's returned the favor now and again. | |
Old Man Yung Mechanic (2 • 2) The old mechanic down at the end of the block, Zachariah Yeung worked for his whole adult life in the various factories of Auburn, working in the motor pools of those big corporate facilities. In his retirement, he runs his own mechanic shop on the down-low, supplementing his sad retirement funds with cash from the locals to make his life a little more tolerable. |
History
Childhood
- Grew up in Seattle, the son of Dane Tagerson, a low-level A-class corp salaryman and his wife Justine, a nurse who worked infrequently due to her illness.
- He grew up attending public school, though he didn't make many friends in it, as he spent as much of his time taking care of her as possible.
- She taught him a great deal about nursing - above and beyond what he needed to take care of her - and instilled in him a desire to be a doctor.
- His mother died when he was seventeen, a blow to the young man.
- His father quickly remarried a woman named Violet, who worked at the same corp as he did.
- Violet and Ronald didn't get along, so he made the effort to get early enrollment in a pre-med program at the University of Seattle.
Adulthood
- His father died when he was 22, and he couldn't pay for school anymore, as his widow Violet objected to her husband's dispersal of funds in the will and took Ronald to court, ending up getting all of it, leaving him with nothing for schooling.
- In order to continue his education, Ronald took a job with DocWagon as an assistant clinic nurse.
- He quickly proved his ability, and DocWagon paid for him to get his EMT training to get him a place with their LTR divisions.
- Still, this didn't quite pay enough to let him do more than take occasional night-classes, but he became aware that their HTR teams were given funds to pay for increasing education.
- He signed up for the HTR program, spending six weeks learning tactics, firearms, and the other basic tests intended to weed out those unsuitable for HTR team-members. He succeeded at the top of his class, and was offered a position in the actual training program, which he accepted.
- The HTR training was a six-month program, training him in combat as much as medicine, and he even accepted the offer to have cyber-augmentations installed, to ensure him a better pay grade and placement upon graduation.
- He went to work in an armored ambulance, working first as an EMT and back-up rigger (rigging mainly medical drones and overwatch systems).
The Shadows
- He was 26 when he was involved in the job that would change his life (though he had no way of knowing that). It was a routine medical extraction that turned ugly, while rescuing a NeoNet executive. He saw the Executive grab a gun from one of the HTR team and start shooting his own bodyguards. After some effort he was eventually restrained and taken to the local Doc Wagon Hospital.
- His team was given danger leave, the standard three-day period of leave after very violent rescue ops.
- While they were on leave, his teammates began dying. One caught a bullet in a bar-fight that went bad, another was poisoned while out partying, another was hit by a car.
- Ronald figured out what was going on just shy of too late. He recognized the signs of breaking-and-entering into his apartment at the last moment and was half-way out the door when the explosive device detonated.
- The explosion almost totally obliterated his apartment, and collapsed the apartment adjacent to his.
- As he was trying to escape, he heard someone calling for help, and stopped to save them from the debris.
- This was the kid of his neighbors, the Kinkaids.
- Realizing that NeoNet was trying to kill him, he fled and found a safe place to hide in his parent's old apartment, which Violet still owned but hadn't visited in years (she was trying, without success, to sell it).
- He contacted DocWagon to tell them what was going on while he patched up the Kinkaid kid.
- A short while later, two thugs showed up with violent intent, and Ronald killed them in self defense.
- Realizing that DocWagon was in on his demise, he vanished into the Barrens.
- He quickly nuked the trackers on his van and worked to clumsily erase his presence.
- Once the Kinkaid kid was better, he offered to take the kid to relatives, but he didn't have any.
- Though Ronald wasn't sure about being able to take care of a teenager, the kid (who he just calls Kinkaid) insisted on staying with him - it would be better than ending up an orphan in the Seattle Child Services system.
- Once in the Barrens, he quickly found some work at a shadow clinic, helping stitch folks up where he could.
- When some gangers broke into the clinic looking to off a fixer who was on the operating table, it was Ronald who fought them, though the street doc was killed in the process.
- The fixer who was on the table offered to get him set up with a couple of jobs, and that's how he entered the shadows.
- Now he's got a small place in YYYY, with enough to eat for both himself and Kinkaid.
- He's teaching Kinkaid some of his medical skills, and generally doing his best to raise the kid the best he can.
