Name:  Micah
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Age: 22
Role: Electronics Specialist

Looks: Micah is young, almost painfully so.  Initial guesses put him around 19-20, almost unhealthily thin and small for his age (5’6”/1.68m, 155lbs/70.3kg).  His light brown hair is incredibly fine, prone to standing on end and refusing to have any form of order imposed on it, which gives him an always-disheveled look.  His light grey eyes are always furtive and prone to a glazed, out-of-focus appearance behind chic 'frameless' glasses.  His skin is slightly pallid in complexion, and, combined with his short and thin stature, gives him the appearance of sickness.  Of all his contacts, none but a very, very select few have ever seen him in person.  He usually wears jeans and a T-shirt, almost always with a hooded sweatshirt and ear-covering headphones, and often the same ones over and over again, as his wardrobe is quite limited.

Personality: Painfully shy, prone to sensory overload, socially awkward, and unlikely to have any positive interactions during any initial meeting, it becomes very obvious that Micah has a form of high-functioning autism.  Almost painfully polite, even when ridiculed, Micah is still generally blunt and has no ‘filter’ when it comes to observing the world around him.  One of the most common phrases that those around him constantly hear is “Did he really just say that?”

Weaknesses: Completely, utterly, socially inept.  Massive and/or multiple sensory inputs can distract him, disturb him, and possibly debilitate him, depending on their severity.  Real world combat used to be a nightmare for him, causing him to flee from the scene if he could or crouch in a corner if he couldn’t, covering his ears, closing his eyes and rocking repetitively back and forth.  Although somewhat able to act in combat now that he’s further worked to manage his autism, he is mainly only able to get to a safe hiding place and get into the Matrix, using the technology and hardware around him as his weapons, should he need them.  He is utterly unfamiliar with firearms, and although he doesn’t have a fear of them, he is just as likely to shoot himself or a teammate as he is any enemies.  Incredibly loud, unexpected noises or crowds can also send him into relapse, but work with Cai had helped overcome many of those issues, and the noise-cancelling headphones (with embedded commlink) generally help prevent him from being overwhelmed.

Background: Little, if anything, is known about Micah's background.  With his age, that is somewhat expected, but he has developed a healthy reputation within the shadows.
